AE LIVE ‘08 - post replica submissions here

Blue version for me too. As for the avatars, they look better than I expected but probably better without them. Great work @jules

the orange one is dope, for some reason i’m imagining a yellowish lime green

the orange version is the negative of the original; the idea of negative was for a graphic strictly connected to quaristice (therefore not colors chosen arbitrarily), but clearly distinguished from the official releases. There could also be a latent meaning: if the 08 live is the result of impromptu moves, the reconstruction is the extreme effort to replicate them methodically. The negative is the only idea that came to my mind to visually represent an opposite.
I don't mind the result, but I don't know what I prefer ... I associate quaristice with blue, and the graphics of the promotional flayer of the tour is certainly a consistent choice

It's very hard to make a 1D barcode do two different things in a discrete manner. By that I mean, I can't easily do two separate ones in the same line as most functional scanners would go "this is one line" when trying to read it.

[jules 962]

should we just get rid of the barcode?

[Adamovich 196]

Oh guys don't be too overly attached to this barcodes artworks whatever, the music outcome is what matters really and I truly believe this will be done perfectly.

However, don't lose any of the frequencies, this needs to be bassy you know...

if we decided to keep the barcode, it would be enough for it to lead to a single page, where everything else would be found. The hardest job would be to make the page itself: is it possible to build a space dedicated to something within watmm? ... in fact it would be interesting to open one even if the choice of the barcode decayed

QR code formed by the position of the letters

Guess you could be fancy pants and just turn something like forum.watmm.com into the ascii values ( 102 111 114 117 109 046 119 097 116 109 109 046 099 111 109 )

Pretty wide barcode mind !

Or maybe like a bit.ly link to this topic ( bit.ly/3m2lwmK - 098 105 116 046 108 121 047 051 109 050 108 119 109 075 )

(still crazy wide)

Went to the uni studio this week for auditioning. digit and I both reckon it's sounding really good.

I took some short videos from that listening sesh at the studio, and yes I could upload them provided that digit and everyone is cool with that.

[goonstock 13]

posting this because this gorgeous melody got buried in the live recording a little bit:

[xyrofen 119]

Very pretty, kind of reminds me of what I love about the intro to Eutow. @digit

[hello spiral 1509]

hnnnnnnnng

[Dale 18]

That Nord sample sounds beautiful.

Are you guys going to be putting out a complete live set with no crowd noise? I’d prefer this so we get a ‘studio’ version.

[dingformung 2628]

Can't wait, this will be super satisfying to listen to. Thank you guys for doing this

Sounds fantastic.

[Draft78 666]

amazing!

chances are your reconstruction will sound better than the sounboard would have sounded, had it been recorded that night. I mean, the sounboard would have consisted of a mix conceived for an avenue system, then mastered, and the balance of the various channels would have been the result of improvisation. Here, on the contrary, we will have a well-finished and chiseled mix in months of work.

Digit Nord extract is an ear massage. It would be awesome, in the future, if you ever feel like it, to have a series of short excerpts, with elements hidden in the final mix, mixed as if they were short traks ...

Dear, Digit and IOS!

Dear, watmmers!

My ‘hurry up’ posts were meant to be nothing but funny (in a stupid kind of way) and I didn’t realized i might be intrusive all this time! Someone pointed to me today that i was so i just want to apologize to Digit and IOS and the rest of you!

So... I apologize!

I never felt an intrusive sense of urgency, if anything a genuine desire to stick your ears into the sonic nectar of the gods

i'm hype af. isn't the '08 tour basically fabled around here? what's the deal with that tour? sean and rob decided to do some of their best work live and not record it, or something? like it was a totally new composition? am i making that up?
