fyi, flatty just finished a q&a on instagram
I'll transcribe everything in this post
Q: You guys called it quits, before your tour, after gov't plates/TPTG. Why not perform those great songs live?
A: We had various problems, most of them coming from our music. We all had an agreement that with our style of music we wouldn't be able to evolve with the musical format that we had and if we kept producing this style of music, our fans would get sick of it. So we quit at our best when people loved us
Q: Who's Billy?
A: That is a question...

Q: How many drugs have you all done/still do, and does it influence your music?
A: Mushrooms, weed and meth. No, it doesn't influence my music. I can't speak for anybody else though. I quit last year for my health
Q: Do you guys have any plans to release any music videos, new imagery or lyrics for any of TPTB, be it old or new?
A: Stefan is working on some shit. He doesn't talk much unless we are writing and only if he has something important to say
Q: Will there be a physical release...

>save money for a year and use all my graduation cash to buy this shit to replace the out-of-date craigslist model that i've been using for the past 6 years
>takes 4 hours and 12 discs to install
>on the last disc, installation fails
i'm fuming. what do i fucking do now.
also, daw general i guess
>>51998652
i'm actually asking for advice, should i just start the installation again from the top or is this just gonna happen again
as far as i know all the specs are in order and i know there's enough space for it
The way I see it, you have two choices. There really are two paths here. You can try again, sure, but there is also a second option. This one involves some positive thinking, taking a better look at things if you will. Sure, you can choose to look at it as you wasted almost 5 hours of what I can only assume is your precious time on this software, or you can choose to look at it in the way that I see it: that you saved countless hours smelling terrible in front of your computer making shitty synth loops that will impress no one except your mother who already wishes she aborted...

Have any you want to share?
what is a good inexpensive, drum machine? I want to purchase my first drum machine to make bedroom jams along w/sum fast guitar riffs. I also like hip hop, so I would like a versatile drum machine that can do both punk & hip hop I guess. I'm thinking of buying the one in pic related. any suggestions?
Korg Volca Beats is an alright 808-alike.
$150 new.
Hey I have a 505
They're pretty great but would be a million times better with individual outs
If you can get it real cheap go for it. If not look for an alesis sr16

There are a shitload of cheap lofi 80s drum machines that people sell cheap on ebay because they don't say roland on them. This Kawai R-100 goes way harder than a 909 imo.

What exactly are characteristics of shoegaze?
>>51975657
Alternative rock played with really high distortion and lots of effects. Usually really loud guitars with incomprehensible vocals all under lots of reverb. My Bloody Valentine is the archetypal band and is generally seen as the originator of the style.
why are bleep scenesters such persistently passive-aggressive cunts

No sharethread in the catalog so I'm starting one.
INSTRUMENTAL EDITION
Any genre is allowed as long as the share doesn't have vocals
Why no vocals, OP?
Laurie Anderson - Big Science
>spoken word, pop, electronic. one of the all-time classic records - ominous, enigmatic, but weirdly playful.

I'd like to thank all the oceangrunge fans out there for supporting our little genre.
Feel free to discuss your favorite oceangrunge hits and be sure to support your local oceangrunge scene.
Here's a bingo game to play.
STORM MEMORIES by sea of dogs
track 1: 7/10
>great opening, the beats soaked in reverb are really nice. Plays with noise well, not making it too uncomfortable, but more like a fuzzy distortion. would listen again.
track 2: 6/10
> great tone but lacks anything interesting melody-wise to grab you. still a good track though, i enjoy the "tape warping" effects thrown in.
track 3: 6/10
> interesting vocal manipulation, however i feel like the song doesnt really progress much. the overall tone gives it extra points though.
track 4: 7/10
>Again, great use of noise within the tone of the music, this is definitely a stand out track for the album. similar to track 1
track 5: 5/10
>the mixing is a bit muffled in a bad way here, also not very interesting musically.
track 6: 7.5/10
>strong fade-in, really enjoyed that, goes right into a very classic swooning vocal piece.
track 7: 5/10
>has an off start, but does progress into something interesting. however a bit too generic sounding overall.
track 8: 7/10
>very triumphant start, opens into a beat oriented section. would say it works perfectly but i think the vocals are a bit too high in the mix
track 9: 5.5/10
>not the best closer to an album, the highs in the mix are a bit to high, and the vocal effects could have been toned down a bit.
overall: 6.222 / 10
>I love the tone of this record, however i feel that it wasn't used to its full capacity, overall a good listen, will be waiting to see how the next one will be.
Post one depressive/cynical/melancholic song you're really into, others will rate.
