  2. Dreadbox Nyx v2 has a dual filter w/ bandpass and peak separation, I've made some formant patches with it. AnalogFX SER-2020 seems fun. I'm finding myself drawn towards Pittsburgh Modular Lifeforms modules, the SV-1 is wonderful, and I've got a few others coming in soon. Next month I'll have a chance to get a Microvolt 3900.
  3. Igloo says things. (What they call a "condensed version" is the fourth CD above, bringing the compilation track total to 50 - the tracks are unique, there's no overlap.)
  4. We Are The Music Makers | Volume One by Various Bonus CD (a fourth one accompanying the original 3xCD) tracks available for free for a couple of days, also some of the tracks on lathe cut 10".
  5. Anyone have a Division Department 01/IV? Any thoughts?
  6. We Are The Music Makers | Volume One by Various Polar Inertia releases are few and far between, but all are worth your while: glacially hypnotic and cinematic techno with experimental and industrial overtones. Environment Control is their second album, although it could also be counted as the first, because Ripped Through The Valley was more of a live recording than an album proper. Inspired by Paul Virilio's book of the same name, Polar Inertia's releases are named after the chapters in the book. Highly recommended.
  7. How Russell became a live breakbeat machine. He's great.
  8. Get your ears on this, it's sublime.
  9. Most (but not all, natch) venues will have Pioneer CDJ/XDJ players and a DJM series mixer, so I would suggest a pair of XDJ-700s and a DJM-250 - they're entry-level versions of what you'll mostly see at gigs. I've been DJing for over 30 years, and I have a pair of XDJ-700s, a pair of Technics SL-1200MK5s and an Ecler NUO 4.0 analog mixer here at home. There are cheaper (non-Pioneer) options, but Pioneer DJ kit is the industry standard, so if you go with something else, YMMV.
  10. Cryptocurrencies, mainly by stealing them by hacking.
  11. We Are The Music Makers | Volume One by Various I was under the impression that Lee Norris' Neo Ouija was about to go defunct, but doesn't seem to have, as they've released a new, massive Cottage Industries compilation on limited edition 3xCD, lathe-cut 2x10", and in digital. The Cottage Industries compilations are among the best IDM compilations ever, if not THE best. Extremely highly recommended.
  12. To drive the point home, I want WATMM to do the opposite, or at least steer well clear of Cory Doctorow's Enshittification.
  13. Just got this reply to an email I sent last week. TL;DR shipping could start in March or April.
  14. 10 USD/year for EKT (and the cheaper tiers even moreso) is a pittance for all this we have and get here, especially as we all know Joyrex nor anyone else is making money out of WATMM, it's all going towards hosting, disk space, admin, and whatnot - this here forum is not a commercial entity, but a labour of love. A lot of people are spending more on cigarettes, beer, or other non-essentials per week, or even on a daily basis. WATMM is a subscription service that gives back way more that it takes, so I, for one, gladly support a community I feel strong affinity towards. I prefer to err in the direction of being principled rather than freeloading, and like I already mentioned, the subscription price is a non-issue, at least to me - but YMMV.
  15. I've paid from the get-go. Targeted/personalized ads following you around the internet is a nuisance. I'm adblocked up the wazoo, but I still prefer to contribute financially to the upkeep of a forum whose thematic and (para-)social dimensions overlap so greatly with mine as WATMM does. I would go as far as to prefer a completely gated/closed community, with no outside (Google) content indexing because we're regularly discussing very personal things, too, and having all that searchable from outside is a bit iffy. But that's just me. The contributed amount is completely inconsequential.
  16. My favourite Christian Bloch & Bjørn Svin - NRSB Session 5. Simple Muzik at its finest. Ice-cold arpeggiated minimalism.
  17. The vocalist is also the voice actor of Chase in the Finnish version of Paw Patrol.
  18. RIP Access Virus TI2, popular flagship digital synth is discontinued (Synth Anatomy)
  19. We Are The Music Makers | Volume One by Various Two-tracker secret collaboration between Tejada & Mendez, deep hypnotic techno. Recommended.
