i dusted off my little area and decided to experiment with some beats while my son is sitting there learning his ABC's with some computer toy of his. then he looks over at me and is like "DAD... WHAT'S THAT NOISE!" with a rather annoyed look on his face... i told him "THAT'S STRAIGHT UP HIP HOP ON THE STRENGPH GEE!" he responded... "THAT'S NOT HIP HOP!" then i grabbed him by the shoulders and looked him in the eye and said "STRAIGHT UP HIP HOP ON THE STRENGPH GEE!" he then said "SURE THING!" rolled his eyes and walked away! he's the only one that can get away with doing this in my book! 4 year olds.

Law & Order
by Guest Backson- 7 replies
- 647 views
Usually I don't like it when people pick a well known show and go "hey, this is actually pretty good! no one has ever noticed this but me!" but I've realised that I've slowly become really fond of a couple of the Law & Orders. I only bring this up because I seldom see anybody talk about it. Where CSI and NCIS are too theatrical and and ridiculous, L&O generally stays down to earth (even if it is confined to the formula of a weekly television program). Maybe the reason I enjoy it is because its realism is more similar to that of a British crime drama rather than an American one. Maybe I should watch a British crime drama. My favourite is SVU btw. Also I stumble…

does anyone know of a way to capture soundcloud songs?
by Guest Helper ET- 10 replies
- 8.4k views
so i want to get some music of some soundcloud account but theres like loads of songs for one thing, another thing, is that the user has disabled the "download song" function, rendering me unable to get the music easily. now the only way i can think of getting it is just straight up recording it, but cmon is that seriously what im going to have to do, because im hardly prepared for such an endeavor. can someone fix up a max patch and run it through ableton then rewire to firefox with a mod'd youtube downloader add on with a usb 2.0 connector to flux capacitor? seriously

Has anybody else here wanted to become a live dj just as a way to get a whole room of people listening to aphex twin with you for 5 minutes? I mean think about it. Anybody computer dork can get into DJing at clubs or parties and play pop shit like Simian Mobile Disco and Hot Chip 75% of the time and slip in the Windowlicker in a set and bask in getting a shitload of people to think what you listen to is cool. (By the way england watmmers, this is america, i can't go to any club here and listen to acid or dubstep or idm at a club whenever i want. boston is dead in terms of that) this is intended for General Banter because i want to get many opinions and also …

basically every "your favorite movies" thread ends in a imdb top 250 reshuffle, not that it's illegitimate or something but i'd like to see something more geeky and personal, movies everyone dislikes but you ! a bonus if it's panned by rottentomatoes and metacritic as well..or any other reputable review source i actually can't think of anything right now myself, will come up with something later..

So i'm sure most of us remember those fateful tapes of the winnebago man and how they touched the internet in their own unique way. Well apparently they made a movie about it, being one of the first documentaries to cover an internet video meme (to my knowledge) i think looks pretty interesting: Apparently he now lives in the mountains by himself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO05RfHO_4s with this and the social network movie it seems we might be on the cusp of a new wave of documentaries about this curious internet we've cultivated
