Arpeggiating into the void since 2022.

No AI slop. This is 100% human-generated slop.

Holy crap. They're hypernormalizing it.

Since we've been recently having a good discussion on mixing and mastering, I'm curious to know how you all mostly listen to your audio. It helps, especially with mixing, to have a good idea about this.
So my question to you is: How do you commonly listen to streaming online music?

Accurate.

I've been fretting that "Flock of Nazguls" is a nom de guerre that folks might find too cheesy to take seriously (not that I want to be taken too seriously LOL).
But then it occurred to me that most GenZ/GenAlpha probably won't get the reference anyway.
So I guess I'll keep it for now. 😁

Yeah, but Carney just ruled out the possibility, at least for now. We have our own contingent of rednecks (mostly out West), and joining the EU would just polarize them more.
I'd like to see it happen, but our own internal political realities probably mean it won't.

Could be. Unfortunately, it's one of the reasons I'm looking elsewhere than S76 for now. There's a German company called Tuxedo Computers that's also supposed to make solid Linux rigs:

Given that Canada is now getting super-cozy with the EU, I'm hoping that it'll soon make it easier to get such things from Europe.

Excellent! Sounds really nice. Ubuntu Studio is great for music producers. I'm running it under Kubuntu on an 8 yr old ASUS ROG gaming laptop. It's noisy as fuck, but otherwise sleek.
And, yes, coming from KDE 3.x, Plasma 6.4 is a dream. I wish I could run it on Wayland, but my laptop has a dedicated Nvidia card that kinda barfs on it - the usual wake-from-suspend weirdness that I've had to deal with since time immemorial with most laptops on Linux. So X.org it is!

Oh wow! I've been lusting after S76 gear forever. How is it?

Ok, after immersing myself in it for the grand total of the duration of Wendy Carlos' "The Well-Tempered Synthesizer" and one side of an Ornette Coleman album, here's what I have to say about (physical) #collage:
It's cheap as fuck.
It's analog as fuck.
It's transgressive as fuck.
Ok, I'm in.
This dovetails *perfectly* with #plunderphonics #hauntology #thatsortofthing
Anyhoo, back to the blades. 😁

So I'm reading David Byrne's "How Music Works", and I'm pleasantly surprised.
I was expecting tons of performative quirkiness, a la his stage persona, but it's actually a highly readable and thoughtful meditation on all aspects of music.
I'm only into the first couple chapters, but I'm really enjoying it.

It really calls into question Google's credibility - at least in its current state.

Hey all. Anyone know how to catch livestreams of ongoing protests without having to use YouTube?

These techno-dolts are dangerously delusional.

If the blast doesn't get you, the nuclear winter will. The dome won't help with that.

Very rudimemtary so far, but I just setup my first #Faircamp site.
I'll be populating it with more tracks shortly. Just happy to see it finally live!

Regardless of how useful it might be in some limited cases, corporate #GenAI is an (or perhaps *the*) enabling technology of 21st century fascism and totalitarianism.
I therefore thoroughly and utterly reject it.

I just installed the latest Kubuntu with Ubuntu Studio add-ons for low-latency audio and other music production stuff.
I think I'm in love all over again. Plasma 6 is drop-dead gorgeous and as sleek an experience as using a Mac.
*THIS* is the linux desktop experience I've been waiting decades for.

PSA: If you're not aware, in your #Mastodon settings, you can set your posts here to expire (auto-delete) after a specified time period (minimum 2 weeks). Use it. Social media is ephemeral and there's no need for your posts to be saved for posterity.....or, given the times, for the prying eyes of the authorities.

2025-01-04 17:12:14 UTC

There needs to be a word for rejection of #enshittified corporate tech in favour of open tech with no agenda beyond its nominal function.
The term 'neo-Luddism' doesn't feel right.
Any suggestions?

LOL yes, I was letting that go on for about an hour last night for the same reason. 😄

At its core, the Roland Verselab MV-1 is an awesome multisampling instrument.
Here's a little something I whipped up on the MV-1 last night. Melodic tracks passed to Hydrasynth via MIDI for extra extra.

Yeah the NJ thing is weird and, I agree, a separate issue. Are the sightings even confirmed as being due to drones or is that still speculation?
