  1. Picked up SAW 1 in 93. Didn't really know anything about the wider scene. Heard Polygon Window and AI 1 around the same time but didn't have any real grasp of what WARP was. I think the first non-aphex WARP I bought was Virtual State by Richard H Kirk. Id heard of Autechre but I just thought they were pale Aphex imitations. It was probably late 94/95 when I was getting into jungle and heard amber and then tri repetae and anti in early morning after parties and realised how good they were.

  2. Nah, its open access now, and its way better value than Dall-E or stable diffusion. Pay $30 a month and you get unlimited slow time and 15 hours fast time, plus you have access to all the midjpurney models and their two x stable diffusion based models. the only things missing are in/out-painting and init image. I often generate stuff in MJ and then outpaint in Dall-E, which works pretty well once the style is dialled in. https://www.midjourney.com/

    It can get a bit confusing with all the options, but its by far the best option. Hit me up if you get stuck with anything.

  3. If you wanna do comics you should ditch Dall-E and try out Midjourney V4. I pretty much only use Dall-E for outpainting now.

  5. Ive always been kinda confused by this guy. 'Cue' on Invisible Soundtracks I is one of the most beautiful ambient tunes of the 90s, but I dont think hes ever done anything else that comes close in terms of style and quality.

    I was really not prepared for the pain in my teeth and gums and the itcy, dry skin.  I hadn't even heard about those symptoms until I got them, and apparently they're fairly common.

    Yeah, its a thing.

    I had a brief interaction with Richard after a show once (long long ago) and he was quiet but definitely seemed nice. 
    That sucks to hear that about TJ. I hung out with his little bro Andy at a gig for a good long while and he was rad as hell. Super funny sociable dude. We are the same age so maybe that helped but still, I felt like he was good people. 

    Maybe he was just having a bad night, but I met probably every major artist from the WARP/Rephlex/SKAM axis back in the day and he was the only person who ever asked for the backstage to be cleared before a gig. Then he went onto play an hour or so of noise at the start of his set.

    In terms of soundness, Bola, Pole, Mira, Vibert and Keith Tenniswood were all super nice as well, and Ed DMX, he was over a fair few times.

  8. Dunno if you'd just walk up to them on the street and get a good reaction, but I met the lads a few times back in the day and found Rob and Sean to be super nice and easy going. Rich I only briefly met twice, but he seemed really nice as well. Tom Jenkinson was a total cunt and cylob got really leery after a few drinks.
