You heard it here first. Smoking is bad man.

lol

My cat Roscoe sleeps 27 hours a day. He lives at my parents house currently because I can't have cats on my lease + he's an indoor/outdoor cat and my parents have a way better property and safer neighborhood for him. He's the most friendly cat to everyone any anyone. I guess lately he's been seen eating strawberries from the neighbors garden. Like father like cat-son!

Wrapped up watching The Wire last month. Probably in my top 5 TV shows. Halfway through season 3 of The Sopranos and loving it so far. I've got a lot of catching up to do on loads of different series because I never watched much TV as a kid aside from The Simpsons and South Park.

Prudhomme could cook that furry little Ewok under the table any day in the realm of Cajun/Creole. He mentored Legasse, but every super good chef I've ever worked under never gives away all the secrets. A family friend passed a crawfish etouffee recipe from Mr. P that he taught to a their culinary course as a guest lecture back in the 1980's. I didn't get the hype until they scanned it over and I made it, there were so many little nuances and long-preps I never would have thought of that he included when teaching the demo. Luckily, my mothers friend was meticulous about including that stuff. I'm a 2nd generation Irish person who loves Cajun food - that in itself is a first world achievement WATMM PNW Cajun Cookout - Coming Soon How's the acid out there? Always wanted to visit Jupiter.

I saw this on the way home from the gym today. Made me chuckle. Mostly because the driver pulled out into traffic, laid on their novelty horn (it was really weird) and just went through to where they needed to be. I always thought it was ironic they were called American Spirit and had a Native American on the front. But, in reality, you burn and smoke them in a horrible addicting habit...

I do love me a Po' Boy! I'm 100% behind the idea of a Cajun cookout collaboration. By the end we shall morph in to one normal-sized Paul Prudhomme. Mecha-PaulPrudhomme, with the power of a thousand pork's.

Are you saying they should have been smoking menthols based on their skin color? (secret way of finding out if doublename's complexion is darker than mine... well, most peoples complexions are...)

The bass a 4:52 in Cirklon3 -- I've always wondered how he does such squigly, melty, pitch-bendy lines like this. I've had some patches on my TX81Z come close, but I love how since the tuss he's been doing lots of those style sequences where they're really expressive and the pitch warbles around. Think he's got an LFO rigged to the pitch and step editing the rate or just having a go at the pitch via midi on the cirklon? Being a fly on the wall in the studio with the guy at work would be something to behold, just to see the process. There's obviously a tedious amount of work and he's put into his craft and it keeps getting more precise and fresh IMO. I've always figured that was the magic - just a dude who can write great tunes, pushing himself in an art spending more time just doing than than I do on anything. Not to discount anything he does, just that it really must be quite a bit of organization, work and discipline to craft tracks like he does with the setups he has. After spending a few days fiddling with a friends cirklon, it just makes me appreciate his tunes with it even more, they are really fun and quite deep, makes thinking about making some of the tracks he does with it at the helm would be an undertaking to say the least.

@ the female protester getting bumrushed by cops - I would escort her off the premises and ask her if she'd care for a latte... On a serious note -- I don't think it should be acceptable by any means, I'm just not surprised anymore. The police are more and more militarized to justify having the means to kill people like this dude who started shooting cops. Sadly, the cops being shittier cops is a result of the drug war, a shit economy, and our surplus of weapons in this county IMO. Fight fire with fire or something like that. Also, who the fuck in their right mind would want to subject themselves to the daily life of a police officer in a harsh metropolitan area?! Chances are they might not be the most sound individuals in that case... Just sayin'

He killed boys in blue, they weren't going to take him alive. Texas has a real knack for executing people they don't like and a cop killer who's planning to kill more is like top of the list for police anger. People think police are mad when they attack someone, they're really fuckin' pissed when one of their own dies. It's a 'their word goes' scenario so I'm not surprised they blew him up from a distance and said to everyone 'he was making more threats and we needed to do stuff to kill him'

Splitradix is on this forum and is from what I can tell, not aphex. He does have lots of cool gear, including a cirklon and he makes cool tracks. He's also from Dublin where the lad who made the video is from. This video of him twiddling his PS-3100 is lush as fukk. That resonant filter is amazing.

no it's me Damn Blank. Good bunch of tracks bud! At least we ruled out Robert Downey Jr.

the breitbart reading alt-right college age white male imagines an icily indignant blonde haired she-wolf to be his spirit animal. the women of the left are horrific dykes, unworthy. the aryan beauty confirms something for him. her looks equal authority, intelligence, truth. she could be his cool girlfriend, backing him up in debates with dirty socialist cucks. together they could start a revolutionary news media network with an easily remembered verb for a name. they will boldly face the cultural marxists together, falling asleep in each other's arms, his copy of the fountainhead sliding off the bed onto a pile of statistics on black on white hate crime. So good. Who are you? Are you Bill & Ted Keanu or Matrix/Constantine Keanu?

so what the evil, 'Mirror Mirror' blond Anti-Abby Martin here is saying is - she feels you, people die and it sucks. But, remember this person did bad things in their past, you don't know what happened ever, but know that this person was totally in the wrong and courts decide things better. Just remember that when you're mad. I love the mass of dudes that post this chick on my FB feed lately. It's all the macho semi-right apologists that don't know a damn thing about basic ideological concepts, the law, or politics. But it's got a skinny blond girl saying it all riled up n' such and I'm mad at Murica so HAVE AT IT FB FEED, NOW YOU KNOW MY OPINION.

(internet hug) Glad things are going the right way again. It's nice to see the collective FWP/RWP become successes or just for life to become better for peeps on this forum.

^^^ Good god, that looks amazing. What is everyone's opinion on pretzel buns? I'm a huge fan personally. Keep this thread going for the good of WATMM. Carry on, brave burger knights. EDIT: New page, the post before this had great burgers. Hot damn.

You know, I haven't worked with Moogs at all. From what I've read they have pretty full bottom end. I was thinking mostly of the high end, which they might do pretty well - I'm just not sure. That seemed to be the cheesiest thing about the MicroQ to me. For pads it was great because it blended so nicely and filled stuff up in a luxuriously hazy way. Something more defined or raspy or just straight up trashy seems like a good complement to me. TX81Z springs to mind. Of the stuff I have now, probably my Shruthi or my little Nord. the sub 37 has an almost perfect top end from what ive heard, doesnt go into harsh territory, like its been crafted and hi-fi'd. from my limited experience with it I think the top would just sit above it quite nicely.. Something that has an even higher good top end is the pro 2. crappy bass imo but it has a high end sizzle from the digi oscs that when used for trancey fizzy leads & modulated fx sounds pretty neat - if youve got something else for the bass. Been thinking about selling it but I want to try it with the sub37s warmth and low end first, see if they gel. Thats another one that can sound a bit crap but when nice its good The pro-2 has huge bass balls. The eff you talkin' about? If anything I think the highs need to be rolled off on some things with that synth. The sub37 has more low-end character than the pro-2, but I would in no way say the pro-2 has crappy bass.

I like it. There's some really cool little jams. Cirklon3 is still the standout for me. That little squirrely bassline gets me in the feels with the aphex detuned pads/chords. Beautiful.

^^^ StephenG's spring cottage burnt down. Bummer

I've been underemployed since around the beginning of May. I ditched out of a job where a lot of promises were made, and nobody delivered. I went uncompensated for about a month before the beginning of May working my ass off to meet expectations - then got totally ostracized from a group of business-peeps I've worked with for close to a half decade for standing up for myself and my crew of people. I put in years of work, all to be lost by finally realizing I was being taken advantage of and as soon as I showed a slightly tough skin, I was labeled as ungrateful and the like. I hate to admit it, but it has taken a toll on me. I have had a full-time job since I was legally allowed to work and now that I have nothing going on, I realize just how pallid my life is without working for other people. Loads of crickets and dark corners in my days lately. I wake up most days and just sit in bed looking at my phone, shifting between WATMM, Instagram and a few other places I look at until I realize that normal humans eat more than once a day and try to stuff food down my gullet. I have no reason to go to bed at night, no reason to wake up. In my earlier years I would have receded into a drug-fueled haze, but not now... I feel so shit and I've gone down that path so much that I even know how shit it would be to have to deal with the high's and low's of a drug binge with this mindset. My friends keep telling me to make music, but sitting in my studio I get nothing that comes to me. I'll just make some loops, get bored or whatever and then shut everything off. Also, I'm pretty much fucked on getting job before I leave for two weeks to Europe at the end of August because no employer wants to hire someone with a month or so to work until they leave for a half-month. Missed out on two huge jobs because of those vacation plans and had a third get me through filling out all my employment contracts and tax info to call me the day before I start and tell me that the person who I was replacing has decided to not leave the company. Currently I'm just working part time at a friends grow when he needs me, which is very nice of him. Financially, I'll survive, I've got more money than most of my friends do that have jobs ATM - but it has not been fun to literally cut down to nothing and never leaving my house. I'm scared shitless to spend my coffers after busting my ass for the last 5 to 6 years to get where I am. It gives me huge anxiety like I'm letting someone bleed me of my life-force lol. Had to tap into a savings that I've never touched, sold my RYTM and a bunch of old grow equipment (thanks WA for fucking over medical cannabis), picked up my old extracurricular ways of making money by selling certain things to people again and just started getting a measly unemployment check every week (lol at the Fed taxing unemployment benefits btw) I don't know why I'm saying this here. Maybe it's the anonymity. Maybe it's the fact that I don't feel comfortable admitting these things to my friends or family. But I need to vent it somewhere. My GF is constantly worried about me, which makes things worse. She thinks I'm going to do something stupid and keeps pitying me all the time, which is sincere, but makes me even more depressed and makes me want to hide my feelings more and more to make sure she is not affected by me. I have an odd trait from my past of just internalizing my feelings as futile or unimportant and going completely blank to the world around me. It's my way of not just screaming at people or taking my frustrations out on others that have nothing to do with it... probably not normal, but after a rough childhood with freaky swinging hippie commune parents, being kicked out at 15, and going through the life I've had - it's the only way I know how to not sink into the rising tide of my own self pity. Thank you for your attention. Goodbye (AFX reference, not suicide note, just so there's no confusion)

I'm a suuuper hardcore Aphex fanboi and even I think what I've heard of the record is just 'good'. They're just old jams so I don't know why everyone is freaking out. TBQH it sounds like jams he made from the same pile of klop with the cirklon sequencing it all. Kinda sounds like this is from the era where he was learning to use the cirklon. (prepares for public execution)
