yeah waveforms sometimes look like they sound but not when they get more complex, at least to me slower waveforms tho yeah def, and things like envelopes def have a tangible thing going on for me and my taste in visual shapes is similar to my taste in sound shapes, if that makes sense your rs7000 is now called bartholemu
-
that was our first ever proper remix job. the first would have been one of the d'breez ones i think but the conoid tone was the first to be released
-
is warp a major label now? when did that happen? if we wanted out i'm p sure warp would let us go without too much of a fight and gigs have nothing to do with warp we can do what we want
-
prefer listening to whole things, at least when i like the whole thing if something's really patchy i might uncheck things for a bit but i only delete things that are totally rubbish and even then i might listen to what's left as a whole thing with bits removed but obv loads of other ways too - today for example i'm listening to a smart playlist which is sorted by bpm
-
errr probably five today anyway
-
ok my brain's stopped working, I'm off now see yous tomorrow
-
the only one i've got is the emerson one, is that a good version? i dig it tho, with my limited knowledge. I'm sure some big parts of it have been copied on something cos i knew some phrases straight away
-
classical, same thing really, it depends on how it was recorded a lot for me. like, i like shostakovich chamber works but only when the strings sound really grey, somehow that sounds like i imagine he wanted it to. i might be way off there tbh i know so little about him really I asked what particular Shostakovich he liked, no response i got tons of files but i hate the stupid naming conventions its all like, 'op 1576, movement 51, allegro con delicatessen' and shit how are you meant to remember anything
-
yeah completely exai is a winter album really, it came out way later than we'd hoped Which album in the ae catalogue would you say is a summer album? yeah good point oversteps maybe, but nah none of them
-
nah we can't i would end up fully dan ashcroft preacherman
-
yeah i don't think consciously but that was the time i was getting into them, when we did lost and flutter yeah hood, i think the last thing i got by him was in 2009 or something, but yeah i have a scout now and then see if there's anything like minimal nation out there not for a while tho, thanks for reminding me
-
tbh i havent noticed a difference in productivity levels, but mbe something about seasons with types. but i reckon its so marginal it would be noticeable. i find it easier to work in winter but i still work all the time anyway
-
i just dunno anything about it recc me some
-
i'd rather be there
-
yeah completely exai is a winter album really, it came out way later than we'd hoped yeah i channel the psychic energy or something like a funnel of brainsound no that's worse OH NEVER MIND
-
i dunno i mean if it's affecting your life negatively then it's worth being concerned about it, otherwise anyone who gives a fuck is probably jealous
-
looks like he's being told off. it should be a happy name…. sean u have good happy names today. Ben Nevis
-
yeah - on LCC, that bit where the pattern starts repeating bits and then it snaps into being slower - the only time we ever used song mode
-
i started liking it when bass music happened and it got more subtle/refined (to me anyway), but dubstep was already done by then really
-
I remember hearing an alternate version of Buckingham Green in one of the webcasts, so I'm guessing that one's a yes! Have you guys done any coding in ChucK? nah but i saw it years ago and it looked interesting iirc it was made for live coding, is that right? would prob appeal to me if so Yeah you can queue up different bits of code on the fly. I just started checking it out last week, it seems pretty slick. I like how you approach time in it, you set up all the parameters then tell the compiler to pass chunks of time to let sound happen with that config. Kinda trippy, makes you think differently. I was listening to Oversteps today and I was wondering - did you have specific patches for those tracks that would generate them in an ongoing way, so you could leave them open as long as you wanted and have the melodies keep varying? Or were the songs set up to go through a certain number of variations / loops and then end? I just imagine it would be so sweet to pop open a patch and have it play a couple hours of pt2ph8 while you're doing things around the house. yeah exactly the original takes are long as fuck. i was doing that most days, followed by loads of editing in the evenings
-
nah to be fair tho i reckon we prob started listening to electro the same time they did, except we were 11 we know 808 but not new order yeah baby ford is top yeah we liked acid a lot, in my case i liked it a lot more than other/prev house
-
cheers. yeah maybe sometime i'm sure steve @ warp would love it if we did yeah my 606 randomly swaps envs from sound to sound. i dunno how i did it either, some voodoo no never nah we never said that. iirc i said that there were always details we'd want to edit the way we were working then was like, make an algorithm for each track, whereas since 2006 we worked on a more general system that we can expand as we go, and those kind of problems are solvable in the long term with that strategy
-
ha no it's pure coincidence there's a sound in one of SND's tracks that's the same as one of my custom IM sounds, still gets me after years
-
yeah i got that, i just didn't wanna sound like some kind of nutter haha, i really like em, but like, I'm not wearing shorts like that on stage :D
-
yeah i lost a lot of stuff over the years, no huge volumes tho thank god
