    I beat Resident Evil 3 remake. I thought it was great, so I don't get the hate. Yeah, it is shorter than RE2, but pretty fun.

    I enjoyed it, but there's a clear conflict of methodical gameplay mechanics introduced in RE2 and RE3 style of action. It feels like a DLC to indulge in more dynamic and less developed aspects of the main game. The constant boss fight comes off too corny narratively

  2. Only scrolled thru the first and the last pages of the thread, so soz if the point is already discussed over, but seriously -- fuck celebz, disgusting attention whores who you irresponsibly feed with terrible social consequences, we need to cut that shit to absolute zero! Otherwise, this behavioral model is naturally perceived as success in life, and most of the people, by contrast, a failure.

    Recently i was reading about Ariel Pink scandals (he came to DC on the historical day with John Maus, his label Mexican Summer dropped him) and checked this girl Charlotte Ercoli, who's not even a celeb and not much of a crush, has a bit of a girl next door vibe playing a lo-fi synth, so... i'm just sharing

  3. Apple should change their name to Orange (tho it's bad as well!) or something, because the apple mythologem is strictly connected to white male privilege as in Isaac Newton story, God forbid to mention the original sin story (shaming women for nothing! They're absolutely beautiful and repressed and under-represented)

    Taking jabs at weak brands like gearslutz is just helping our enemies

    Don't know how to bandcamp embed

    It doesn't work for separate tracks, you can only embed the full album (or a single track uploaded there as full release) and can't choose the track to feature in the player.

    Can anyone recommend some great albums/tracks that would be similar to this scratch-tastic marathon? 
    I know turntabalism is a pretty immense genre to explore, but this seems way more intense than most of what I’ve stumbled upon before 

    I don't think it belongs to turntablism genre per se, turntablism is sort of ready-made music based on creative playing of records in real-time, which is why it's also pretty slow compared to this.

    The robotically relentless (probably fully programmed) scratching on this works more as a mask to hide a stripped down collection of sculpted breakbeat loops, each roughly a minute long with no development. I guess there could be a market of somewhat tasteful breakbeat sample libraries, but since i have no experience with that to me this only recalls the Bumps project from Tortoise percussionists.

    Here's a playlist if you haven't heard:

    I really don't think it's appropriate to render an opinion on someone's work, and then say "but these deserve more attention (as much as I like lovekrafty).

    Maybe the exact phrasing is arguable (what's with deserving love nonsense), but that's really helpful to understand where the disappreciation comes from, instead of guessing whether the guy gets it stylistically or simply not. Usually it requires a follow-up elaboration that often doesn't follow.

    This transforms a "negative" opinion into a "positive" substantial one

  8. Very funky and instantly among favourite Gescom material, generous giveaway.

    Well, one hour maybe a bit draggy, tho the breakbeat loops seem carefully crafted / not directly cut samples -- interesting what kind of collection it is, multi-year funky breaks practice?

    Also reminds of Kid Acne's Gescom remix
