Ranking the SYRs (probably for the millionth time)

E. Noisefield · 10.27.2011, 03:36 PM

Anyone have a distinct ordinal preference for the SYR series? I've been trying to mentally get one together, but I'm having trouble. I know that 1, 7, 5, 6, 9... I don't know.

EVOLghost · 10.27.2011, 03:41 PM

I only listened to 6, 8, 1, 9. and my order is....8,9,1,6.

noisereductions · 10.27.2011, 03:52 PM

1, 2, 9, 7, 8, 5, 3, 6, 4,

Mortte Jousimo · 10.28.2011, 01:11 AM

1, 9, 2, 7, 3, 4 & 5.

Still haven´t heard 6 & 8.

logicalharm · 10.28.2011, 01:24 AM

I can hardly rank them, it's extremely dependent on my mood. I almost always enjoy 1/3/6/7, don't listen to 2 as often, and often have difficulty with 4 and 5. Haven't gotten to listen in-depth to 8 and 9 though!

E. Noisefield · 10.28.2011, 11:42 AM

Oh wait, I always forget that it's 3 and not 2 that sucks.

I have 8 but never listen to it.

I guess for me it's more like 1, 3, 7, 5, 9, 4.

SonicBebs · 10.28.2011, 12:44 PM

1, 9, 3, 6, 2, 8, 4, 5

No wait, 9, 1, 2, 8, 4

3 doesn´t suck and that´s truth!

Mmm... compared to the others.....

Well, let's just say I've owned it since it came out, and listened to it about three times. While 1, 2, 7, 9 and 4 I've listened to more times than I could possibly count, and still listen to today.

frades · 10.29.2011, 02:27 PM

Maybe you should listen it again few times. Of course it is quite noisy and has less "form" than for example 1, 2 & 9, but I just love the atmosphere it has! I think it is very near of 7.

I'll give it a listen on my way to work. 7 is one of my faves. Great for autumn days. So chill. The first track especially.

Also- it looks like I"m the only one who has any love for #5.

I don´t say I haven´t got any love to 5, but I think it´s not even near of the greatness those SY-SYRS.

You're all wrong, it's all about Silver Sessions.
