@nprofile…egn4 Hey Stan! My pleasure - glad to help out. Your stuff is great! And thanks for the boosts as well!
Interesting you should ask about my latest project. I've released about 300 tracks since 2021, so I think I'm due for a compilation album, if only to close off that era.
As for new projects, I'm getting more interested in sonic textures, so probably more along the lines of my latest track, 'Impulsion'. Gritty, dreamlike, somewhat inscrutable. :)

Gear: Noise Engineering BIA; Make Noise Mimeophon, Morphagene, Wogglebug; After Later Pachinko, Ornament & Crime; Roland SP-404 Mk2; Expert Sleepers ES-9; TASCAM Model 12.
Aside from some voice samples on the SP-404, this is a fully Eurorack piece. How I achieved some of the sounds in here is somewhat mind-bending.

Here's the #Soundcloud link for my latest track, 'Parahelion'.
It's a psychedelia-tinged, langourous chill-out track since we all need some chilling out about now.

@nprofile…nekg Yep. YT was one of the last things for me to sever. In the end, it wasn't as painful as I thought. Most of the stuff that's interesting to me is on archive.org anyway. And if I do need to go to YT, I just watch the vid within DuckDuckGo viewer, which strips out ads (and doesn't give the creeps any more info about me).

I was asked a while back what I had hoped to accomplish with my musical endeavors. I replied: "I want to develop a new kind of synth music that grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go."
This is the closest I've gotten yet to achieving that.

@nprofile…0nz2 When I was self-hosting I boosted every damned thing to make sure it got Fedi-circulated. Still haven't kicked that habit, which is why I'm still boosting so much. LOL
Anyway, are you on boost-o-matic? That would help!

@nprofile…0nz2 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.

@nprofile…0nz2 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.

@nprofile…0nz2 @nprofile…s37t Excellent! Sounds really nice. Ubuntu Studio is great for music producers. Right now 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 Wayland (the usual wake-from-suspend weirdness that I've had to deal with since time immemorial with most laptops on Linux.

@nprofile…0nz2 The shift functionality is super awesome. My only complaint is that the secondary function labels are not lit, so fumbling around in the dark is not fun. Although I imagine I'll have them all memorized soon enough. 😆

@nprofile…0nz2 Yup! It's using the internal synthesis...which actually sound very good. It's kinda like yhe #Hydrasynth in that you need to know a bit about sound design to tweak the best out of it.
It's very immediate and performance friendly.

Same here. Also dealing with others who are in a state of hypernormalization about what's going on is crazy-making.
