Re: The best Electronic Music of Q2-2023

some wonderful tunes!!! Thanks! I was so out of the new music scene the last few years. Some of your selections made me think about the mid 90s period where I had a subscription to a great magazine that came with a sampler CD. Learnt so many things back then: Scorn, Main, Autechre, Death in Vegas,....

Re: Generic Airwindows plugin thread / tips, recommendations etc

Density is good. Melt is good in moderation. Voiceofthestarship here and there in the background. Subsonly can be handy. it's only really a lowpass but if you are feeling bored you can put it on a drum break and it will give you a bass line/rumble type thing/ groove. It is also shelved in a way that...

Re: AI and music

People on here talking like all of a sudden artificial intelligence is going to jump in and then it's AI or no AI. Elements of AI will be in everything in the near future. Slowly being adopted. Ableton will employ it. Logic definately will. Why do you think this M1 was pushed so hard? The throughput...

Re: Bleeps and bloops

this is something thats vital for the magic of the dfam, you dont have notes in the sequence you have a frequency knob for each step, so your never going to hit a note 100% That way you will do the tuning by ear and it will be coherent but more or less dissonant, which is a main element of bleep te...

Re: Fucking originality

new for the sake of new is shit. It is amateur new as a byproduct of strong voice and conviction of the artist can be good. Over time this can develop into a solid original body of work. This sort of discussion comes up alot in the design world where 'originality' 'freshness' 'the next' 'new' bla bl...

Re: Reverb 2022

I'm sort of addicted to reverbs. My favorite hardware reverb is Neunaber Immerse MKII. My favorite software reverb currently is Baby Audio Crystalline - which is sort of like VintageVerb on steroids. Highly recommended. Had an Immerse 2 and must say it is probably the most natural and transparent r...

Re: ASK US ANYTHING [NO SUBJECT IS STUPID / ALL QUESTIONS WELCOMED]

Is there any reason to avoid parallel saturating an entire mix? I was recently playing around and put a new saturation plugin on a return channel. I then sent all of the channels to it, cranked the settings, and turned down the return channel until it was barely audible, but seemed to be contributi...

Re: Headless Horseman - Tech Talk

Like I said, branding that's just the reality of this world. If anyone here has ever written a bio or descriptive text about their art, it is effectively branding. Some people just like to devote more time to the packaging. The thing that really annoys me is when this sort of thing IS reasoned by t...

Re: Headless Horseman - Tech Talk

I don't listen to this person and also think it is a bit lame but you are getting anonymity and image confused. This is an artist who is trying to put forward an image or character. Much like cookie monster. Everyone knows there is a hand up the puppets ass but the character itself is the cookie mon...

Re: NFTs

I don't get it. Why is it better then buying vinyl in limited edition? It`s not really, it`s basically a meaningless scam with no legal weight. Someone can copy the work and there is no legal comeback well it is makes sense for digital art. Until recently, digital artists were exhibiting or tying t...

Re: Voidloss 2.0 live PA: My new sound

nice heavy sound. at it's core, the drum programming reminds me alot of Photek, esp his Two Swords Technique. Dunno if that is a valid thing to say.
