Oh Inhuman Spectacle
''Oh Inhuman Spectacle'' is the debut studio album by Australian band Methyl Ethel. It was released in June 2015 through Dot Dash/ 4AD. Reception In a review by Stuart Berman from Pitchfork, Berman said "Methyl Ethel makes dream-pop for insomniacs—shadowy, nocturnal music whose surface shimmer barely conceals the fidgety, restless soul lurking underneath." Bekki Bemrose from Drowned in Sound said "The first few tracks on ''Oh Inhuman Spectacle'' set a high bar not quite maintained throughout, but still, the record is a promising début and a perfect soundtrack for those mysterious twilight hours." Harriet Gibsone from The Guardian said "Its opening handful of tracks are robust – the doomish disco of 'Idée Fixe', the crepuscular melancholy of 'Shadowboxing', the Johnny Marr guitars that inhabit 'Rogues' – but soon the record wears out. Although it assimilates the past decade of alt-pop, there's a wiry quality to Webb's voice which recalls Turin Brakes Turin Brakes ...

Vinyl Record
A phonograph record (also known as a gramophone record, especially in British English), or simply a record, is an analog sound storage medium in the form of a flat disc with an inscribed, modulated spiral groove. The groove usually starts near the periphery and ends near the center of the disc. At first, the discs were commonly made from shellac, with earlier records having a fine abrasive filler mixed in. Starting in the 1940s polyvinyl chloride became common, hence the name vinyl. The phonograph record was the primary medium used for music reproduction throughout the 20th century. It had co-existed with the phonograph cylinder from the late 1880s and had effectively superseded it by around 1912. Records retained the largest market share even when new formats such as the compact cassette were mass-marketed. By the 1980s, digital media, in the form of the compact disc, had gained a larger market share, and the record left the mainstream in 1991. Since the 1990s, records co ...

Media Streaming
Streaming media is multimedia that is delivered and consumed in a continuous manner from a source, with little or no intermediate storage in network elements. ''Streaming'' refers to the delivery method of content, rather than the content itself. Distinguishing delivery method from the media applies specifically to telecommunications networks, as most of the traditional media delivery systems are either inherently ''streaming'' (e.g. radio, television) or inherently ''non-streaming'' (e.g. books, videotape, audio CDs). There are challenges with streaming content on the Internet. For example, users whose Internet connection lacks sufficient bandwidth may experience stops, lags, or poor buffering of the content, and users lacking compatible hardware or software systems may be unable to stream certain content. With the use of buffering of the content for just a few seconds in advance of playback, the quality can be much improved. Livestreaming is the real-time delivery of cont ...
