  1. if someone shows up on my youtube feed with their face and a synth and a plant, it's up for grabs. im not saying anything about the quality of the videos because im not watching them.
  2. who this. i have a soft spot for minimal electronics well the minimalism went out the window
  3. horrible is a strong word. it looks like they all took the same marketing seminar and are cargo-culting the same ideas all in order to compete with each other. and for what? just in general i find youtube personalities repulsive in their helping push the consumerism, fetishization and commodification of music/music equipment. it used to be that demos like this were done by some sad dude at roland or wherever. now its some sad dude doing it for free or hopes to 'build a brand', which is just a dream that youtube is selling to convince people to waste their time/lives doing this kind of stuff. at the end of the day, the only one coming out on top is youtube. the world would be better off of these people were spending their free time making music with this gear and honing their craft instead of demoing it.
  4. dope. looks a lot like the live rig (i.e. the only rig) from this video
  5. i dont watch their videos. i just see the screencaps show up all the time.
  6. next they'll tell us about landline phones
  7. Don't know anything about this group but I liked what I heard. https://shop.cpurecords.net/album/cracked-dice Reminds me of B12
  8. yeah legowelt has earned his plants. i was thinking more of this clownshow that follows me around on youtube
  9. i just meant like you try to become a youtube influencer or whatever ? but in all seriousness, soundcloud is sad these days
  10. if you find yourself photoshopping yourself in weird poses over some plant filled recording studio for the video icon, it's time to get some help
  11. for the record i agree with this
  12. you can do feedback fm with 1op tho
  13. fm synth elitists are the best kind of elitist imo
  14. It’s UVI falcon. There is a YouTube video of them using it extensively somewhere. You can script it using lua and they built a bunch of apps for it. Apparently some of them are up on some uvi falcon share site but I haven’t looked into it
  15. Since Max 8, it's ridiculously easy to make an FM synth with 1000 oscillators using the MC (multichannel) wrapper. Outside of that, I totally agree with what you're saying. I've spent a good amount of time in Supercollider and it is very powerful. However, one of the things that brought me back to using Max was how you could be 5 levels down in a patch and quickly create a slider or a knob and use the inspector to set the proper ranges for it and start tweaking and tuning a sound. Doing this in Supercollider isn't terribly hard, but its definitely enough thought that I'm switching from being creative to doing more technical/troubleshooting kind of stuff. After that, dealing with saving/restoring states of UI objects in SC is so much more of a hassle. With the pattr system in Max I don't have to think about it much at all. Of course I would never try to build a 'real' application in Max, but if you approach it more as a canvas for musical ideas and a way really leverage whats possible from a computer while writing music, it's got a lot going for it.
  16. i will say that by the time discovery dropped, my tastes had gone leftfield enough that i didnt even consider them to be the same band and was pretty bummed about the whole deal. iduno though i pulled out homework yesterday and its still got it. a few years back i was biking and passing this guy who was playing a daft punk homework track on his bike. i said "is that daft punk?" and he said 'no i think it mu-ziq' and then he looked and verified it was daft punk. i think theres some common roots there but for sure the later stuff is full on pop.
  17. i have this on wax. every once in a while i stumble upon it and think "j.p. buckle, wtf is that?" and then decide to give it one last listen before i trash it/sell it/whatever. then i realize its pretty good and i wanna keep it
  18. would be quite sad if the aphex twins broke up
