    I guess this will pave the way for the Labyrinth sequel

    Abul Mogard is an obvious choice, but one of my favourite things he's done is hidden away on his soundcloud page from 2012:

    Weirdly he lives round the corner from me and I occasionally spot him out and about.  So far resisted the temptation to shout 'great drones mate'. 

     

     


    This was great, thank you for sharing.

    You should definitely (maybe) high five him in the street

    Bullshit, the standard prorogation is a handful of days, usually less than a week. This is nearly a month. 


    Yeah, there doesn't seem to be any agreed duration of prorogation.  It seems he just plucked the idea of 5 weeks out of his hair.

    Quick googling suggests the last 5 week prorogation was when the 2nd world war ended!

  4. I was thinking through this the other day.

    If Corbyn and his team had agreed to support Theresa May's deal when she agreed to step down, we would have left the EU by now with the deal.

    There could have already been a general election (or one just about to happen) and Corbyn *could* be in power.

    scorched earth boris. who knew? and wtf. 

    scotland must be worried he'll suspend parliament up there as well.  wtf.  calculated move. is there going to be people in the streets protesting? general strike? anything? seems an ideal time to go all french about it and get in the streets and throw some shit. 

    also, 'temporary' suspending parliament.. let's hope it's only temporary. 

    Parliament gets suspended every year, its nothing new.

    There may be some protests but I don't believe we will go "french" and fuck shit up.

    Its just the timing of it this year, the remain camp arguing that parliament should sit so that they can have another go at calling it all off...

    They've had 3.5 years to sort this out and to be honest i'm just fed up of hearing about it.

    If suspending parliament allows a deal of some sort to go through then its probably the best (and last) shot we have, otherwise it is no deal.

    What do you need it for? 

    I have Zoom cdr70 and ive been using it for live and jamming with friends. Better would only be high end pedals a la strymon big sky or eventide ones but those are several times more expensive.

    Mainly GAS issues. I do not have a reverb pedal and I just think sometimes I should have one.  Have added reverb in post-production sometimes but since I am attempting to become a self sufficient live performance unit, a pedal should be good.


    Why stereo? Well, I mainly want to end up at stereo on my mixer so I can create some hard panning effects.  I know I can do it with a y-splitter but if im buying a reverb pedal then its 2 birds with 1 stone.

     

    Just found this in the August sale on Reverb - https://reverb.com/uk/item/6766228-jptr-fx-kaleidoscope-reverb-multi-reflector-unit

    Looks like a tasty weird reverb that would suit me nicely.

     

    Thanks for the other recommendations, will check them out

  7. Im looking for a stereo reverb pedal.

    So far I have found the Digitech Polara (cheaper) and the Keeley Caverns v2 (not so cheap but dual reverb and delay), both looking hot.

     


    Anyone got the Earthquaker Afterneath? Looks a bit different in terms of the sounds it can offer. Not stereo but not the end of the world.  I have a stereo flanger pedal that I can set to being very subtle that gives nice stereo room effects.

    Anyone else having issues pasting images?

     

    Well only in that now I have quoted you, I cannot see a quick link button that allows me to paste an image into this thread.

    Sometimes simply pasting the URL does not return an image

     

    We are all but humans, apart from some

    For those that like noise music: What was it that made you start enjoying the genre?

     It is a genre without constraints, conformities or boundaries.

    Noise can be whatever the fuck it wants to be and if you do not like it well then listen to something else.

    I am consistently amazed by the variety of sounds within the experimental / diy / noise / electronic worlds, without the need of sticking to a bpm, time signature or pre-determined song structure.

     

    But don't get me wrong - I love techno.  I well constructed 140bpm 4/4 slamming techno set can slay me. 

    But so can a weird collection of atonal bleeps of intermittent tempo and volume, layered over HNW for 2 hours.  Sometimes....

    I find it little stupid that nowadays threads just disappear all of sudden. Just this week first the Monolith tape thread and now the Beatwife in new releases are gone like fart in the wind. imo, if it isn't full of some obscene offending shit, locking would be enough. Not so much talking particularly about the threads I mentioned above but just in general. There still may come some discussion or posts one likes to revisit etc. Just feels kinda odd if I can't be sure if the whole thread even exists anymore when I log back. Maybe some limiting about who can delete threads to mods and admins and with a good reason or something

    Of course your forum, just my plug.

    Well yes, unless there are obvious offensive posts in the threads then it seems bizarre that the entire thread is deleted.

    Perhaps just delete the bad posts, reprimand the offenders and keep the thread active? Especially music discussion threads about scene stalwarts Beatwife and Monolith which I guess is the actual point of this forum.

     

    Edit: unless of course Beatwife / Monolith requested that the thread was deleted, but that seems unlikely.

    Have you read the graphic novels? I lost interest in the series after maybe 6 episodes but it breaks my heart a bit that I will never see the ‘War in the Sun’ comic done right. Maybe it’s too epic to be filmed.

    Yeah I used to read the comics, can't remember how far I got though as it was a while back. 

    They've not really done Assface proud although his origin episode was pretty hard hitting and well done.

     

     

  12. I did a 30+ minute noise/drone excursion inspired by my recent visit to Supernormal Festival.  It crawls between various states of full on feedback / crunch and minimal drone squelch.

    I quite enjoyed creating this.

    One day I will make a proper album of this stuff.

    In return, here's something currently happening in London that could definitely be interesting for the WATMMer...

    Should be fun, no?

    Bugger, finishes the week before I get into town.  Looks good though for sure.

    I hear there are some really nice synagogues in town.

    Well sure, if you are Jewish or just like looking at nice architecture, there are some good examples in London.

    ?‍♂️

  14. A couple of things I have enjoyed visiting when in London...

    https://www.whiskytastingroom.com/

    Whisky tasting rooms / shop with friendly and knowledgeable (non-pushy) staff

     

    http://www.trinitybuoywharf.com/whats-on/event/longplayer

    1000 year long drone music being performed at Trinity Wharf, open at weekends. The sounds will not repeat during the 1000 years! Crazy stuff.

    Ohh that's fucking awesome! Ceephax and Altern 8! This one looks like a no brainer really! I am staying till Sunday so this looks like the proper summer rave send off I was hoping for! What's Altern 8 (Mark Archer solo by now I think?) into these days, I think he went into nu breaks mode at some point. Thanks a lot for letting me know, I could have sworn I've checked RA, I didn't manage to catch that one! I've just being told that this is a nice venue too! Do you think I should book in advance (like....around now?) cause it might sold out or the capacity of the place would make me look like the a complete tourist (I probably am)? ?<span>

     

    Buy a ticket, then you will not be disappointed....

    Altern-8 will probably be playing acid rave, maybe breaks, it will be good times so a no brainer really ?
