turns out the national enquirer has (somehow) acquired some rather embarrassing pictures of the world's richest man. according to them: there is more: it turns out mr.pecker (owner of the national enquirer) is a trump supporter and like any other trump supporter- he hates the washington post (owned by bezos). so his point of threatening bezos to publish his "dick pick" and those other pictures was (allegedly) blackmail and extortion. oh yeah, and trump is involved because he hates bezos. and so do the saudi's. because they like trump. turns out however, bezos doesn't bend so easily. after all, he hired this security dude he's known for 20 years and told h…

So I made a shitty video awhile back about the game Bugdom with a very shitty remix I made of the themesong. I put it up, and that was that. (the track isn't my new remix of the bugdom music). Anyways, then this guy pops up and says it is a nice video and very specifically singles out the character "King Thorax" as being one of his heroes. He sends me a bunch of pms asking me to make a tribute to Kind Thorax and I kind of just say, "I don't really feel like it, and your idolization of that character is disturbing." He gets pissed, but still continues to make strange comments on the video about how much he loves king thorax. The comments get weirder as they go on. I…

I saw a video on reddit where someone soundtracked a Beyonce dancing video with ae's 'c7b2' and it got me thinking of good ole tv carnage (http://www.tvcarnage.com/) Has anyone ever tried this sort of thing, muting a youtube vid and then soundtracking it with different music? Was hoping to get something to laugh at today and wanted to offer up one I came up with. Try muting the Fred Astaire vid and soundtracking it with Zapp's 'So Ruff, So Tuff"

If you had to seduce a nation-state, what would be your approach verbally? I'd go after Iran first, especially if they rebranded as Persia: "Hey babe, couldn't help but notice those democratic tendencies. . . and I like that a lot. But what's with all the dogma? Ayatollah? More like Aya no lah, amiright? Come on, let's blow this joint honey, and party like we in Shia de Janeiro." Or something along these lines.

Hi all, 18 years ago, I am 33 now I stopped playing keyboard, I have followed lessons for that for 7 years, up untill my 15th. Things happend and I stopped playing the keyboard. Three days ago I took my Roland E-600 from under the dust and decided to fool around with it a bit. Then I discovered a diskette, which was still in the thing, and I listened to the songs that were on there. It were tracks I created myself when I was between 10-15 years old. I started to cry because I understood at that point what I have thrown away for so many years. I decided to change that… Two days ago I bought a Novatation Launchkey 49, it has the Ableton Live Lite software deli…

that's it really I don't give a fuck what your favourite album is of 2017, who gives a fuck? Not me. Couldn't give a monkeys. Just tell us a mad story. But it has to be real. Artistic licence is allowed... Could be anything, UFO's, ghosts, tripped out and ventured into madness, that time you almost drowned or got eaten by a fucking massive animal beast. Have you witnessed an exorcism? Funniest thing that you ever seen. I've set this up because obviously I've got a story to tell you, but you go first....

So I've been reading up about him. It's interesting but I cannot help but feel he'd still have been languishing in obscurity if it hadn't been for the Turner Prize. https://cremeorganization.bandcamp.com/album/mark-leckey-made-me-hardcore-creme-12-83 Is anyone else on here heard of him?

So if you have Win 7, 8 or 8,1. you've probly seen this thing pop up, it gets a whole tile in Metro, but even if you're on desktop, it's now an unremovable icon in task manager. back door install from a recent patch. really, fuck you MS and you're bullshit "advertising as an OS" strategy for the bomb that was Win 8. At least they gave up on that joke of an app store, and let you run iOS and Android apps in Win 10, but I'm still not sure how that will work, as those don't even run on Macs right? just stuff from the Mac App store? http://www.myce.com/news/windows-update-silently-installs-windows-10-downloader-75647/

I'm in London for NYE, but don't live there normally - any recommendations for good parties happening on the 31st? I prefer smaller events, friendly relaxed people and the vibe at slightly illegal parties than at big clubs.

The first WATMM Christmas album is here. I made the thread here instead of in the recent releases subforum in order to get the most exposure. I was going to name it "A Very WATMM Christmas" but I remembered at the last second that Papa doesn't like it when we use the WATMM name for our little pet projects, which is fair enough. So I hastily tried to come up with another name, and I came up with "North Face at the North Pole". Sorry for the lame name everyone, I came up with it at the last minute. The album can be downloaded here: http://cytoplantastic.bandcamp.com/ It asks for a donation, but don't give a donation. Just enter 0 as the amount and you can d…

For context, originally from the thread here: My father-in-law, for the last five days, has been doing his own version of an advent calendar. Except, instead of pieces of semi-digestible chocolate, imagine that you get text messages. Now, imagine those text messages are full of judeo-christian* self-righteousness, and this sort of smug self-satisfaction with the prose. Like, you can feel how much he took a look at what he's written and is going "gosh, I really am gonna bowl them over with how clever I am!" (which means, of course, that it smacks of artifice - also, I know what this looks like because I do it too. Not saying I'm exempt). What makes this particular…
