  1. I read the comments so you don't have to. This pretty much sums my thoughts up:

    I hope people aren’t forgetting that a global manufacturer, with 3500 employees, has literally painted a single independent journalist (one who has always reported on Behringer’s gear with balance, when has he done it vindictively?) as ‘lying pinnochio’.

    They, a 3500-strong company, are calling a single independent journalist a LIAR, and on multiple occasions they have ridiculed the journalist’s own products on their social media. It’s bizarre, vengeful, childish behaviour.

    I will never, ever buy this child’s toys again.

    Why Is Behringer Attacking Peter Kirn?

    The attack on Kirn appears to been the result of months of planning.

    In January, Behringer announced that they’d trademarked the ‘Kirn’ name, and teased “Any clue what we have in mind with it?”

    In addition to registering the trademark, Behringer created a caricature drawing, created a synth prototype, recorded a voiceover, filmed and edited a video and then promoted it on social media.

    Ironically, this is more effort than they put into some of their actual product introductions.

    Why would the head of one of the world’s biggest music technology manufacturers authorize a personal attack of this sort, let alone have his staff take the time – over several months – to make it?

  3. I haven't heard any Aphex cover songs that I liked. I don't think electronic music cover songs are really good to begin with.

    Remixes are a different story but afaik there aren't many remixed Aphex tracks. The ones on the WARP 10 compilation are the only ones that come to mind.

    His videos are the most informative and least sensational I've found.

    I don't take a lot of life seriously, I'm cynical and grew up on a diet of internet trolling etc but for real I'm concerned

    Anyway back to African China cancel jokes

    Oh, I thought that the HQ rips via fundraising thing was the one and only to get it officially. Wouldn't mind it though. Frankly, at the moment, I would be super glad if he released anything at all via bleepstore.

    I _think_ he only said it would never be pressed again (if memory serves.) Hopefully that doesn't rule out a digital release in the future.

  6. It’ll be an interesting market: You’ll be able to buy the fake 303 with the fake DevilFish mod or buy the fake 303 and send it in for a real DevilFish mod. There will be a few YouTube videos comparing the sound and features of the DF mods and a few gear nerd threads debating the merits. In the end none of these will ever end up used in music you actually listen to because the owners will be too busy hand wringing over their gear.
