The problem is that enjoying music just isn't enough anymore, ZoeB. WATMM these days is far more about image then feeling. Its the definition of following your brain vs your heart. Aphex twin can put out the shittiest tracks ever after a ragga jungle monstrousity and people will worship it like he's the god of poo, reguardless of how many heart wrenching psycho-acoustic ballads BT might put out, in whatever surround sound configuration you like, with 3D music videos, and 110 piece orchestras. If it doesn't fit the WATMM visionary of sitting around in a incomplete skyscraper, listening to Com Truise, and making fun of Skrillex, you are simply not a member of us. Even if Skrillex and BT do the exact same thing and love the same music, they are not one of us, we decide that. The best thing to do in situations like these is to check your ego in at the door when you log into WATMM and assume your persona. Swallow your pride, and put on the WATMM act. Of course Aphex is the best artist this century. Of course Autectre is making better music now then their analog days. Of course Squarepusher still is the daddy. We are not aging hipsters, we are refined critics and we know everything sucks, we've been trying to tell ourselves and eachother that for years. Just up the post count a bit, tell a few people to read the rules, and put squarepushers' circle vacuum tracks back on. They are ahead of their time, and so are we.

BT has more skills then most of the people on WATMM. BT thinks he's IDM and probably is but the IDM community hasen't allowed him in the front door yet. BT graduated from Berkley, so the the IDM community thinks he believes he is better then everyone else. BT probably is also friends with Skrillex and was nominated for a Grammy last year, but didn't win, as Skrillex did. /me enjoys the next 5-10 pages of hate

I've dabbled with this genre in the past, I might give it a shot on my next album.

I was gonna crack a joke about copyright infringement, but then I was thinking... It might be a cool project to sample everything on an album from your daughter banging on stuff... melodies, drums, etc, then piece it all together in audio, warp, add fx, etc.

I haven't heard this album yet, but I think this thread shows to me that IDM fans are the hardest to please. The only thing I know about this guy is that he makes Analord style music that people think sounded a lot like Aphex back in the day (so much so that he was accused of being Aphex a few times). You'd think we'd be his target audience.

You guys need to stop being so civil and start mud slinging.

Make a chord progression first, have your melody start on the root note, make sure it doesn't clash with any of the notes in the chord progression along the way? I dunno I'm shit at music in general.

I'm having a hard time buying a new studio desk because I can't find anything that will fit my 27 inch monitor, Virus, Machinedrum, and APC nicely.

Wait so is there a digital version somewhere?

I haven't heard the original, but I'm not as big of a fan of the remix "Paradise Circus" as I am with "Four Walls" Its still good, and I love the part from 9:00+ onward, but the first 7 minutes almost put me in a coma.

My ears are very, very happy!

I'm disappointed that I slept yesterday from 5pm to 5am today, thus wasting at least half of my labor day holiday!

I bought some breakfast this morning, the total was 3.09. In my wallet I had a 10 dollar bill, a 5 dollar bill, and 3 ones. Since I couldn't pay for it with my ones, I used a 5 dollar bill and I got 91 cents back in change. I told the lady that she owed me another dollar, but insisted that I gave her all ones. I relooked at my wallet and had the 10 and the 3 ones. I asked her if she was sure, and she opened the cash register, pulled out 2 ones, and was like "Yes you gave me these" By then a line was forming behind me giving me the dirty eye. So I left. Basically I gave someone a dollar today for nothing :(

oh yeah i dont doubt i will have a vast mountain of wealth by the time i'm through with school, it's just gonna cost a LOT. but thanks for the advice! that's the plan so far, gonna finish up undergrad with either a history or art history degree, then do grad school for either art history or archaeology. so there are options. like yelling IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM all the time. on the street. wearing plastic bags for shoes. "she's got a phd in archaelogy" they'll say as they throw change in my cup. i am not seriously this fatalistic im just tired and rambly. Seems like in your posts you can talk the talk when it comes to 3d graphics and programming, why would you ever waste years on a degree that will amount to nothing financially when you can do something like software and enjoy history in your spare time?

lol, is this true? I had a neighbor that was CONVINCED that my roomates and I were living with her ex and we were harboring his existence("There is a MAN, living in your HOUSE and he is HARASSING ME!"). Supposedly he would harrass her at night by throwing things on the roof. (total load of shit crazy lady hearing things). She went so far as to track down my roomate's girlfriends liscense plate to her mother because she beleived it was the car that was transporting this man to our house every night. I even had cops come to the door sometimes trying to ask for the guy (some old ulgy bald dude that obviously didn't live with a bunch of 20-something young men). I would often see cop cars just sitting outside my house when I came home because she probably called them every single night. After a few months she wrote a long winded letter to our landlords trying to convince them we were hiding this man in their house. We had a meeting and explained how she was straight up batshit insane. It eventually fizzled out but I think she is still crazy. Thats completely nuts! If something like this were to happen to me, I'd never assume I had a crazy neighbor. How did you figure out this neighbor was responsible for the cops showing up etc? Did she ever come over and confront you?

I ordered a breakfast burrito with bacon and hashbrowns this morning, and the guy forgot to add eggs.
