A good idea doesn't have to be technical though tbf. I agree, very surprised it hasn't been discussed more.

There's a saying in the gaming industry and I'm paraphrasing but it's basically 'Ideas are the easy part, implementation is the hard part'.

I wonder when Rich will start uploading tracks again. I missed those times of excitement.

It's true.  Do you work in gaming?

[psn]

Good ideas are always the hard part.

[Brisbot]

Do you know what I'd like? A physical model of various pianos packed into one vst with the ability to morph between them, basically getting new timbres out of it. I could control  the hammer types/volume, the types of piano strings, etc. Implementation?    It'll happen one day I hope though.

No, I have an acquaintance who works making ds/3ds games who told me about this, now that I think about it. He's a game designer and I'd suggest things to see if I could help in some way, and not much of what I said was practical probably. I haven't talked to him in a while so I've forgotten what I suggested.

Speaking of working in gaming, being a game designer is pretty much a dream job, one of the few I wouldn't mind the 80 hour crunch weeks. Well, maybe. He's also said that occasionally you'll get stuck working on a game you don't enjoy, then the crunch gets unbearable, and for one game he said he was glad it was cancelled in the middle of development. Not many people on the team were interested in it. I guess it'd be like being forced to make.. generic house music.. or something.

 Pianoteq ?  

[Brisbot]

Yeah I have pianoteq 4. It's not that good. I haven't tried out 5 yet.

Well, it isn't very good for playing the piano alone, if it's mixed with other elements than it works just fine. It doesn't sound... real enough as samples can.

I'm excited to see where physical modelling will go. I can't wait to have realistic sounding instruments without needing 25 GB of samples and slowing your computer down tons. I want to mix and match and create my own piano, or combine the best qualities of 2 pianos, etc.

Lol at the sample, sounds funny when it finishes and a random track starts.

I think the bottom 75% of DS/3DS dev would be abysmal.

oh yeah, definitely. Luckily he mostly gets to work on fun projects according to him, at least since I last spoke to him. It's been 2 years, I don't know if he's even at the same place.

Happy birthday RDJ!

Could be in this thread already but I'm not about to dig through it to confirm (I ran a search for the User URL on here but nothing). But the Account that created the Uchood trax playlist has heaps of uploaded tracks. I don't recognize any of them and they sound very Aphex

Medieval Rave Mk2 is my absolute favourite. The way the drums thud and thump away is just lovely, and the melodies are gorgeous. It's everything I love about AFX in one track.

followed, loverly remix there. Really like those textures. You should post more of your stuff from youtube on SC.

 

It's real cool how timestretching/pitching naturally sounds adds to the textures themselves. *notes to self*

My previous post about my post being sarcasm was ironic.

 

But that is a very nice remix!

[Uros]

Martin's Car LPF - MTG Edit Eq Powerpill - Octave Nob has become something like holy trinity to me. Those just go so perfectly together. Can't stop listening to the trio. That subway train on MTG, so sweet.

 

For fans of NY Groove

 

Definitely same city but maybe another street. Good catch. It took me some sweet time to spot that samish clattery synth line in NY Groove and Acrid Avid Jam Shred. Was listening to ICBYD last week and suddenly thought ''hell, this bit sounds like NY groove''. Funny, I haven't thought Acrid even once when I've been listening to NY Groove. Embarassing since Acrid goes to my top10 Aphex songs and should know it inside out by now. But, still spotting new things after a year+ of intense listening.

 

Hey has anyone else spotted the beginning of Iketa at the ending of some song? Like it would have been the next song on the tape. I swear I've heard it several times but when tried to search it just couldn't find it anymore. God it has been bugging me. And no, I'm not speaking of Bike Pump Meets Bucket at the end of X-Rays.

I read a comment on the youtube vid for NY Groove with somebody saying it reminded them of 'vaporwave'. Sounds more late 80's/early 90's Rheji Burrell Nu Groove, Digital Distortion 'Mellow Bug' etc. to me.

Hit me with some tracks - I love this style of thing. This Dam-Funk track gives me the same vibes.
