^^^^ yeah, really good post. just a small thing about the idea of global swing. ie 66% swing applied to all elements. yeah it does make it sound more coherent in a traditional sense, but i would encourage people to come up with different (by hand if possible) amounts of swing per...

i kind of like noble. i seem to remember some cheap monkey/stephen hawking bit he did that was somewhat funny. he does kind of wing it though which is something to admire. Stand ups a bit like a personality test really. i wonder if people would like the same jokes better from a different...

ah yes, what a good topic. I think this is my favorite thing to talk/think about/spend time doing. not for everyone, but i like layering 3-4 different grooves/time-sigs/rid's over each other for that loose, seasick vibe. does anyone else find if your programming really polyrid music that you...

all the stuff about money.

*i haven't listen to the track cause i'm working* (no youtube) but quickly, you can think about melody as having resolution. ie if for G Eb Dm Db F G is part of the Fmajor scale. So if there is a melody that starts and ends with those, it can be thought of as having resolution as they are...

@don q those quotes are a real find. my eyes bugged out to the size of saucers reading them. criminal stuff. *edit* just read the Schreiber-Coltrane review. Speechless.

this toothpaste fiasco and counter accusations are some of the funniest things i've read since chelseas 2 year transfer ban yesterday. also, going back to what someone said, there is no North East london postcode. whats that all about?

thats pretty weird.

^^^ Yes, some of the techno netlabels are the absolute worst. You'd wonder why people can't just stick to having a few tracks on their myspace or something, whats the difference? how do people feel about the "if you haven't got a product to sell, you haven't got a product" idea? I'm not saying...

i thought/read about this a lot, and kind of came to the conclusion that it's much of a muchness and that its more about thet tracks, but i've been to a few gigs recently where i've been left cold by a set and started to put it down to over-compressed (the lack of dynamics kind) and the, imo...

yup, similar prejudices. I've given them a go, but i never find anything i'm wild about. lots of competant tracks, but nothing thats excited/challenged me. i'm sure there is loads of good stuff somewhere, but i just think most of the people i respect still buy and release vinyl. i think...

Ah, thats too funny, whats a zoot though? *edit* just used urban dictionary. thats pretty lame on my part.

ok, i'll give them a go. i've gotten a few things on the back of recommendations here that i really like, so maybe its time for me to put the prejudices aside. also, trancehall? thats a nasty idea. my worst nightmare.

no, not this year. When i have gone i've spent much more time at the off-sonar events. I don't like the airhanger that much either. Its a bit cold or something.

psytrance. oh, and dancehall. i know its meant to be good but i just can't.

Oh apologies, thats my fault. I thought you meant for vibrato style slight pitch shifting. yes, depending on how low the milliseconds go that would be a chorus or would then turn into a vibrato. maybe its to do with, i'm not sure i can explain it well, but if you slightly, but constantly...

CHAOTROPIC is right, put simply, its a really small delayed signal (milliseconds) that modulates the original sound so that the pitch raises up and down slightly. The doppler effect part comes in because the frequency (pitch) is percieved to change because there are two signals that are not in...
