    Guys singing falsetto...

    First time I heard that track I emitted a really beautiful little blub. How I love those comedown Tuesdays.

    Jimmy Scott <3 The bloke from Sigur Ros. From the sublime, to the ridiculous.

    Why do people get Rothko but not Stockhausen?

    It might be more fair to compare Stockhausen to another time-based art. Film?

    Why do people get Rothko but not Stockhausen?

    I spent the first two pages of this thread completely bemused 'cos I thought people were talking about Rothko _the band_ :confused:

    Why do people get Rothko but not Stockhausen?

    Sound is a process, visual art is (traditionally) an object? Something like that? If its strength as an image is anything to go by, Stockhausen was right about 911. I never understood why people got so angry about his observation regarding the power of the image of the falling of the twin...

    'music to stand on a mountain to' genre - shit post-punk!

    Yeah, fuck those self-obsessed homos & their meaningless attention-grabbing antics in the face of 80s gay genocide. Wait ... I mean, you're a prick.

    exercise?!?!

    MMS, what kindof silat are you doing? I did Harimau for ages ... really great stuff. Miss it like crazy but hard as hell on the knees & that jungle stuff can savagerize your brain if you let it.

    mythical creatures bestiary

    This is nice. I love cryptozoology. It kindof sorts out the theoreticians from the pragmatists. Does that make sense??

    Recording guitar to computer/general guitar techie questions

    You know what? I have no idea. I just play stuff in using direct monitoring & it works fine. Never had any latency problems whatsoever, but then I don't use a click track & never use any sequencing, aside from a loop pedal, sometimes.

    Recording guitar to computer/general guitar techie questions

    Haha! First review on that page: "Preamps are not fantastic but ok for me. No noise problems since i don't use cheap mixers like behringer." Tascam ... Behringer ... man, my setup is really excellent ;)

    London pubs

    I've got some of them. Horrible aren't they? Sam Smiths rools, although they always seem to be packed. Used to drink in the Angel every week but got sick of sitting in people's laps.

    mythical creatures bestiary

    My favourite cryptid (mystery animal) is definitely the Dobhar Chu, the irish Master Otter. Supposed to be a huge vicious white otter with (usually) a black cross on its chest. No modern sightings, unfortunately. The Tatzelwurm from Switzerland is also ace, being a long dragonlike reptile...

    Spacemen3 book - anyone read it?

    I mean, in many ways, unlike Spacemen 3 actually, they're too shackled to the trappings of 60s psychedelia to really create trippy music. It's just music that sounds superficially trippy, that pays lipservice to an idea of trippy, without actually trying to change the brainstate of the...

    Spacemen3 book - anyone read it?

    Yeah, they were oddly underwhelming live. Strange, given their reputation. I love the idea of them but in the flesh they just weren't single-minded enough to really make me bug out (not helped by the fact that the house lights were way up & the sound was really quiet). It was actually quite...

    Good GOD that's a great fucking record O.o Every synth sound is a killer isn't it?? I love the burbly squelchathon bubbling away in the background.

    Actually... maybe thats why it sounded a bit thin & shit ... didn't think of that. No effects!!

    Synth Recommendations

    Had a play with a Juno 6 the other day at a friend's house. What a strange experience!! I've played synths for years & the Juno sound is SO rated ... everyone raves about it ... but everything I produced seemed a bit crap & boring & straightforward to be honest. Couldn't make it do anything...
