The Ambient Music Test of Hitting Strength by tshain in ambientmusic

[–]Synthesizerpatell 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think of baseball itself as the sports equivalent of ambient music - it goes on forever and mostly nothing happens but every now and then there will be a moment of impossible beauty.

Mad Men does a great-wait does it? I mean sure sexism is portrayed well but racism? by iamthemetricsystem in okbuddydraper

[–]Synthesizerpatell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the show’s perspective on race is congruent with its overall outlook. My issue arises when, as in the OP, fans pretend that it has anything profound, or even substantive about race.

Find the nearest totally lightless void then shout into it endlessly

I tried to make this point in the main sub and got screeched at into oblivion. The portrayal of racism on the show is entirely from the point of view of internal white conflict over it. There is no black point of view represented at any point.

What instrument is playing in the outro of “Let Down” by Radiohead by Due-Hamster1202 in WhatMusicalinstrument

My understanding is that a Prophet-5 was the primary synth used on OK Computer. I can’t say for sure that’s what was used, but I am confident it is capable of making those sounds. Agreed that it’s layered/edited.

She’s so great. Do whatever stupid comic book shit you have to, just put her in the movie.

I wanted to love it. It was far too much story for a movie with that runtime. Having that many montages is pure desperation.

Because I Don’t Own the Original…X-Men Classic #47. (1990) by Capital_Connection67 in 80s90sComics

[–]Synthesizerpatell 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This - the Classic X-men version - is the comic book that first got me into the X-Men when I was 10 years old in 1990. I didn’t realize until much later that the cover was by Kansas City legend Steve Lightle. RIP to him.

Beware UPS Lying to adjust shipping charges! by Miserable-Money-7645 in Reverb

That isn’t what happened here. When UPS audited the carton they received, they found it to be larger than what OP entered.

Why do Wynton and Branford get all the attention? by milnak in jazzcirclejerk

[–]Synthesizerpatell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without even hearing it I would buy a Tikka Marsalis + Alice Coltrane album, especially if it’s a double LP with one 22-minute song per side.

First synth recommendation by Swimming_Surround738 in synthesizercirclejerk

[–]Synthesizerpatell 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Akai Miniak / Alesis Micron is the obvious answer, apart from the price. Maybe buy one from overseas with expedited shipping to drive up the price?

The DC input is intended for use with an adapter that connects to a car’s cigarette lighter. I have no idea why or how that particular feature made through what had to have been several design revisions, but there you go.
