he doesn't give a shit. looks like a kid called into the principal's office. such contempt. i don't think he cares or knows about half the things he's said at rallies or in long interviews. it's all temporary shit so he can get through whatever it is and move on to eating hamberders.

I’d be fine with that. it’s a specific single use scenario based on whatever kind of repor I’d have with the friend/roommate. Also I wouldn’t live with idiots because it’s too stressful. Obviously I’m not advocating this tactic to reach people and I agree it’s be counterproductive but is something I imagined for a minute as being satisfying on this particular day. If it was a friend or friends who I respect I might factor that in though if it was me. Perhaps I’m just feel vicious today. Settle down.

oh totally. i mean, i'm not saying i would call them all retarded. just if the person was living under same roof as me. trumpers identifying with trump is classic con man stuff. he did the jedi mind trick that he knows how to do. he showed them he's just like them even though he despises them. give them permission to be awful out loud. etc etc. but the fact that people really bought the "he's a business man" shtick is very frustrating.

it's just such an insane line to take from the whole thing. "antifa did it!" it's all crazy. if the thing they see w/their own eyes isn't good for them then it's a lie to support their narrative. "biden won the election but it's only a show. they're faking it for appearances because they made a deal not to get arrested for child sex trafficking. Trump is running a shadow presidency because they decided it would tear the country apart if all the dems went to jail!" oh totally, that sounds true! if i was in the Swiss mountains/countryside and my friend/roommate was saying this i'd have to snap him to the present for a moment by pinching him or something then i'd grip his arm really firmly and tell him it's all bullshit and buying into any of it means that he is actually retarded. like full retarded and stupid. i'd then tell him that i know we're not supposed to use the R word anymore but in this case it's necessary to make an impression on just how fucking stupid he is. then i'd start looking for a new place to live or kick him out.

fckn hit and run!

i spoke to aaron funk some years ago and he said he's doing the same thing. perform the track and it's done. no mixing to worry about no edits etc. maybe do a few takes and keep the one liked best. said he hasn't used computer for music (other than as a clock source) for ages.

chris randall has 2 old computers running w/all kinds of shit as a project. might be interesting and have some leads.

audiomulch will run on XP if you want some higher level modular type audio beat making things that are deceptively simple. live 4 i think will run on XP. as well as steinberg Cubasis which is really cheap and probably some free version you can find on line somewhere. I have a laptop that runs on XP and three's a whole bunch of stuff on there.. free plug ins that no longer exist etc. today or tomorrow i might have time to fire it up and see what's what. i'll come back to this post asap.

sucks. i keep meaning to buy the ice spike crimp on shoe things but we've not had any snow/ice for a couple years so it's slipped into the low priority zone.

just heard a report on NPR that interviewed a bunch of people in Wuhan who said the virus did not start in China. so whatever campaigns are happening people are believing them.

i've always imagined he has multiple long term ongoing experiments with certain things.. they run their course. also, i think since the cirklon that's his centerpiece and the gear around it changes.. or maybe he has a few of them set up with different gear. multiple little jam stations to try different things. dude's been doing this a long long long time. obviously he knows the ins and outs of all the things he has and can do whatever comes to mind. i interpreted the "i have a tech who took months to wire up the studio" as hiring a guy to do some custom things w/CV and audio in a patch bay so richard can more easily patch and combine etc whatever he wants. that's not simple and can be tedious shit. autechre said back in the day they would set up the studio differently for different tracks. rewire the whole studio to do different things. as for what sounds better.. the hardware or software.. i don't know.. it really depends on whose hands its in. think squarepusher Go Plastic which is basically a sampler, 303 and DSP and peavy PC1600 midi controller nad endless streams of fucking hexadecimal and his qy sequencer. people like to elevate and create mystery about these people but they're talented, pretty smart, been doing it a long time and mostly they work really hard a lot of the time and ya know.. they make good shit. some of aphex's hardware stuff is so amazing and mindblowing to me. not the fact that he's doing it w/hardware but that is' just really good and all melody harmony beats and fx are so intertwined that it really does become a techno orchestra at times. analord stuff is fantastic. and i know song i mention below is come to daddy era so probably tracker based but still the magic is sometimes you can't really tell. i mean.. 28 organ 1.1 [ru,ec,+9] https://aphextwin.warp.net/tracks pretty much wrecked me in a good way for like a month and still when i hear it i marvel at the melody but also that beat and the bassline that is some not really acid type acid thing that just talks its way through the track. so very heaven. so, yeah, i think he's that hardcore about chasing the ideas he has right? i mean.. why wouldn't he? btw, i know people who are gear makers, designers, builders and there's a culture of obsession about a lot of it and it's usually because they are building something or trying to build something that recreates or takes up the torch of that think. so, talking to some of these people is an eye opener when they're properly caffeinated and on their shit about it.. whatever that thing is. i'll add.. after seeing the message board post up there that it's true.. i've played 2 really nice devilfish 303s side by side and the owner of them sold on to someone and later was like "fuck.. i should've sold him this one and kept the other one.. the one i sold is the better one" even though i played both of them and was thinking they both sounded amazing and my day at work went at warp speed. but there was something specific about it that he heard and much preferred. have had similar conversations with various people about 808s. it's certainly not a way many people can afford to operate. fucking rambling wall of text. why do it do it.

hunter thompson wrote in some piece he did a million years ago that Genghis Khan and his men, when gang raping women, would cut slices into the women's bodies when they ran out of 'natural holes'. I guess so more of his men could share in the spoils. he sounds like a communist... if you believe hunter thomspon.. and why wouldn't we believe hunter.. he never told a lie or made up a story. i think in that piece he was comparing Genghis to some politician.

this is gonna be america for a while. fingers crossed some big positive biden news keeps rolling in day after day to make people forget or not care wtf is up the donald

can i vote for MIXLR? still hoping for these

many also think the war is the wave that Putin rode to power. that guy in chechnya is the one arresting all the gay people? i think he also made a bunch of weird videos talking about his cat right?

total lack of surprise. russia, backing Qanon 8chan parler.
