will search for it now. yeah, 80's r and b is a rich vein to plough.

^^ yes, i love that prophet song, its excellent. its funny cause i'm in the middle of organising a set of that sort of thing for a party tomorrow. stuff in a similar vein i'm feeling that you probably know but if not check them out. narada micheal walden - divine emotion moxie - when your...

For me, that sort of behaviour is embarresing and makes me uncomfortable because it makes me think that the other person is perhaps ashamed of who they are and is trying to cloak it, probably for the sake of other people. Whats wrong with being a normal white guy from some normal background...

ok, so i dug it out finally. the rules are a bit long winded (would have prefared if they were snappy like society of the spectacle) and though the game itself seems like it could be interesting, it kind of feels like a poor mans Go, just with more complicated rules, so its less accessable but...

yeah, i bought it for my girlfriend last christmas, haven't played it yet. the rules for it seemed like they get pretty complicated. started reading theme a while back but got distracted. will dig it out tomorrow and give it a go and get back to you.

ha, no thats good. i like it. For a few years i've been trying to pull together a sort of New York Times style review of her book thats completely oblivious of the context and is just savaging the narrative from a technical point of view. Accusing her of solopsism and having a limited world...

ah yeah, its so horrible when people do that. like they think they're keeping their cool and being civilised but its kind of the same as someone losing it, only less honest. its weird that people have all that anger in them but the don't really have proper channels to let it out or can't...

^^^^ Is that the same as Gallows humour? I think i like that the best. Well, i think the name is the best. I like the earlier idea of Rod/Emu thing. Its good stuff to tap into. There is something faintly sinister about the human/soft toy ventriliquist thing. Also been thinking a lot about...

burial?

yes, i agree. it was just something an exgirlfriend said to me years and years ago that kind of stuck in my head, which was "if a jokes funny it should stand up to analysis" (to paraphrase) but then i don't know if i ever agreed with it. if i'm honest this whole thing was just a way to round...

i've never been able to figure out where i stand on this. is a joke funny only if stands up to analysis?

With all the fuss thats being made you'd swear Brown had killed some innocent civilian for no good reason.

....its cause it only takes a second to press auto-sync.

http://www.gumtree.com/london/03/48643203.html i don't buy vinyl any more but saw this and looks good. Also, just to clarify, i have nothing to do with this in anyway, just a heads up cause i know i would have been interested in the past and it just went up cause theres only 2 views on it...

Ha! Thats excellent. kind of on topic, an asian friend of mine saw what must have been the QT with Nick Griffin and he was wearning the poppy badge and she confessed to her boyfriend that she can't believe how many people are walking around London with a similar badge.

yeah, its so stupid trying to recreate analogue in a digital environment. the trading standards people should be called. theres a softsynth, olga i think its called, that does try and reproduce the inconsistencies and analogue slip and tuning that analogue oscillators have. and tries to make it...

ah yeah, i see where your coming from. yeah, i think people hear certain things about old bits of gear and then they kind of pass them into mythology without really fully understanding them. i'm probably guilty of it sometimes. but stuff like heavily compressed samples, less exact pitching...

@Slothrop there is something to be said for the old akai/emu samplers. some of them were flagship products and quite well made and sold for a lot at the time, so the connectors are good. The filters also were very good and often suited to the amount of bit reduction that would be done to the...

yeah, i guess it is possible to only make tracks with soundforge. i'd find it too restrictive though. you can generate some basic wave forms in it but you would be limiting yourself to mainly using only samples really and then cutting the tracks together without a grid, which is fine really...
