Brandi_B Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 now im looking forward to this, but OH JESUS who chose that font. some alien there's lots of weird stuff going on with the compilation. Too much dare I say. And any relationship to any alien tv show is purely coincidence since i've never watched it. I didn't understand when awkward said something in the other thread. But AW illuminated me.... Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Enter a new display name Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 The punctuation in the release's title is worse than Asymmetrical Head's constant use of "..." and "!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbpete Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Ah gotcha, I thought you were referring to the supposed punctuation problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandi_B Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 I think the whole compilation is just possessed and makes anyone listening to it or talking about it do very strange things. That is my diagnosis. Some things i've noticed: Some of the similar names. That messes with me too cuz I didn't notice until i the final track layout. Kara Karasu- Katie Kilobyte Open Boy - Beneboi And then AW pointed out to me that not only does the font look like battlestar galactia, but Antarctica kind of rhymes with it, both of which are quite coincidental. Some of the artists real names, and email address were sometimes similar to other artists WATMM names, or real names, making things a bit confusing. Beneboi was very cordial A lot of the tracks have weird noises in them and during mastering I was constantly looking around for a ringing phone, someone knocking on the door, someone talking, etc. And I was not high (well I was at the final session) One of the artists couldn't mail me their master wav b/c they were out of the country for many months. Some of the songs blend so well into each other you can hardly tell the track has changed (which is due to track layout, but that's why certain songs went certain places). there were also some tracks that originally had the same names(by different artists) or similar names, making me mix them up quite easily until I requested name changes. I was crushed when I rejected a pretty awesome song that was based on a sampled ska song and honestly rocked. But it srsly didn't fit in at all. Broke mah heart.

Brandi_B Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 OH! Another thing, While I was making changes and getting the layout finished up and listening on headphones, my friend that mastered everything was watching the next season of the boondocks (he does all the music).During some of the scenes that didn't have music yet, there were a couple times that the Antarctica tracks I was listening to went along perfectly with a scene from show (he just had unfinished rough drafts without all the sound fx and music placed correctly). It was bizzare at the time. (again not high) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandi_B Posted January 8, 2010 Author Share Posted January 8, 2010 Ah gotcha, I thought you were referring to the supposed punctuation problem Yeah I don't know what the deal is with that. All I can say is the "an" I like and is also a reference to "an hero". Because I'm sure someone from watmm will become one someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Plus its grammatically correct to have 'An' before 'Electronic'. But I think Enter a new display name was referring to something else (as to what that is I'm not sure !) Unless of course he's talking about: Download or Physical Cd's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBLA Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Ah gotcha, I thought you were referring to the supposed punctuation problem what EANDN was referring to was my constant uses of "..." and "!" something i've been doing for a long time on watmm!

But I think Enter a new display name was referring to something else (as to what that is I'm not sure !) Unless of course he's talking about: Download or Physical Cd's ceedeezz yeah while that can go either way (Cd's, Cds) and I don't think that Cd's is entirely an irrelevant punctuation, I suppose the acronym in the most correct form is indeed Cds. Spell check in firefox sees Cd's as correct and Cds as mispelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
