Hey, let me just thank you cumulatively for all the feedback on my posts. Steemit has always been kind of a touch and go thing for me, even nextcolony is just something I have in a tab of my browser that I open once a day (usually in the morning, while I wait for my coffee to take effect :D). I just hate the way it clutters my steem activity feed.
Last summer I made an effort to try and be a little more active in the community, but then life started again and I struggled finding the time and the inspiration. Maybe I'll see if I can go back to my weekly writing?
About Soen, I'm very glad I helped you discover a new band. The Pink Floyd influence, unfortunately, is something you'll only find in that particular song and a very few select others (maybe Paragon?). To give you just a very quick recap of their career, their first two albums earned them the fame of Tool clones, even though they had some new and interesting ideas, while with Lykaia and Lotus showed way more of their personality. They are in the habit of advertising their music through their most slow, accessible tracks (like Lotus itself, or Lucidity) but if you dig a bit you'll find some other very cool songs. Maybe try Sectarian to see what your run-of-the-mill Soen song sounds like, and Jinn (sometimes spelled Djinn) for its middle-eastern vibe. Also, River is another great slow ballad that you might find appealing!
