  1. everybody loved him, even the ones you wouldn't have imagined the funny thing about this cover it's that it's not so different from prince's version: everything you hear is in the original arrangement
  2. I didn't even knew there was someone named bassnectar who was so well-known... said artist 's Bass Head track on youtube has 19 million views wow and people are making paper on this kind of music wow surely I feel old... but I never felt better about being old :D [edit] well... he's benn around since 2001 wow it's not even that I'm old... it's that really I've never heard of him up to this moment... wow the things you learn from dank memes!
  3. if dank or JAZZ btw, can one of the old and wise watmmers explain to me how JAZZ became the word for "already seen"? KTHXBYE
  4. To me, the added feature of these, after watching sonicstate videos, is how close controllers are to the hands that are playing. With that perspective in mind, minikeys makes sense... especially cos they seems very playable. You can play and adjust parameters at the same time... Dorian Concept comes to mind for that style of playing. He was constantly playing and adjusting the sound... but of course he could PLAY, and minikeys are no troubles for him. So I guess they are addressed to those kind of players. Apart from the DX which could intrigue DAW folks as well... in the end, you need a keyboard to test your sound design, and you could "lap sound design" with that. I do not work for yamaha :) but I can see who this things are addressed to... I cannot imagine whether they are going to be successful tho. I sent the link to a friend of mine who is a good keyboard player, and he wasn't really impressed. So... edit: typos
  5. Well, after seeing the videos, I think they are really interesting. Nice variety of sounds from each module, compact format, battery powered. Of course these are targeted at keyboard players, not at DAW users. And I think that those are really interesting for a keyboard player, expecially because they sound good, they are portable, the keyboard is playable, they are battery powered. Which basically it means you can play anywhere you want to play... but if you doesn't know how to play... they are pretty useless.
  6. just found this one, quite brilliant she has some other on her channel too
  7. My first "electronic music" attempt was done on a QY20, btw. So I totally get that feeling When I look back at all the programming I did on the QY-20 (editing stutters and notes in between on drums and instruments, trying to replicate some atomheart sounds back in 96... with built in GM sounds :D ) I wonder how could have I done that? I spent hours on the thing to get the sequences I wanted, but I reckon that once you get the grasp of it, it was fairly quick. I imagine that the QY700, given it's big buttons and screen, could even be faster than what I was used to... not strange that he sticks to it, I can relate.
  8. and this.-... JAZZ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzOGueZOpNw and this more JAZZ
  9. It may not be like that, but it's my favourite ever explanation for the album title. Even tho I'd prefer to think about it like "drowning a little"... I imagine it being a reference to rdj drowning under the huge amount of work that has gone in putting the tracks together... He just released them before drowning completely
  10. at 1:02 mount saint michel other covers are awesome too (sharepusher / venetian snares)
  11. L LOL, I hadn't listened to it yet, but who could believe for more than 10 secodns that this was AFx's work?
  12. Prolly fmsubass doesn't sound so aphexsome after stock sc mp3 compression
  13. Thanks for the suggestion! Btw, if you look at the metatags on VLC player (on OSX at least) it shows which software was used for encoding. The majority of the tracks are encoded with iTunes 12.0.1.26 (which I guess is the latest itunes avalaible, so it's a fresh compression), AB6 is encoded with iTunes v5.0.0.35, Luke Vibert remix with iTunes v4.6.0.15, and so on... the only track not encoded with itunes is (vocoder disco) is encoded with SoundJam v2.5.3
  14. In a world devoid of hope, aphex twin comes and brings back hope for us
  15. Listening to Parking Lot now... at first I thought it was strange he used the same sample that janet jackson had used for her song... but then, after listening now, I just realized that he had done that way before janet jackson and I went check the dates... JJ's song is 97; according to his notes, Parking Lot is 88-89ish (and you could tell that from the style of the track too)... how cool is that? it's 8 years before the same exact sample was used in a massive superproduction track
  16. Well, I think that it's an hassle to upload 111 tracks to soundcloud, so I don't think he's going to reupload anything, just enabling the download. So if he uploaded higher quality,we will get higher quality, otherwise it's the 128kbps we're sticking with... I cannot imagine anyone wanting to reupload 111 tracks again to souncloud, and I think rdj has better ideas on how to spend his "now". Maybe
  17. Rhubarb Orc. 19.53 Rev Lol my speakers' bass rephlex are making it windy in my room
  18. Did not get that hint, before... I guess he's done uploading
