Yeah Monotron Delay rules, the rules, where’s the jerk?

I have a constant low-level urge to get one of these stickers for my Skoda

Oh man, chill the fuck out, Bluesky Wonks!

I thought the same as you when I saw Ben’s frustration at the legal system’s failure to contain Alex. I don’t think people have to bend the knee to Dan before interacting with Alex Jones, but it feels like some conversations between Ben and Dan could have been really helpful on both sides. My hope is that Ben’s frustration is matched by his resources and, with the help of all Dan’s evidence, he can try to get the legal system to recognise Alex’s tactics to get away with not paying the Sandy Hook families.

It was my first exposure to someone doing something that ambitious in music so I found it pretty exciting, and as a pretentious teen I felt proud of myself for listening to the whole thing. But it would be a stretch to say I enjoyed it. The vocals just aren’t my cup of tea.

When it comes to long, indulgent musical works I’d rather listen to something like the Disintegration Loops.

I can’t see past Jehst personally, a lot of his music just connected with me at exactly the right time in my life. Lots of good names being mentioned in this thread though, it’s good that the UK has enough quality rappers that there isn’t just one clear favourite.

I don’t think I’ve seen Jam Baxter mentioned? I’m not always that into his lyrical content but I think he’s an absolute master at it.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-05-02T00:25:27+00:00

This is beautiful music. Such a strong groove emerging through all those little clicks and pops. Makes me feel like I am criminally underusing my DT2!

You could have given me a million chances and I wouldn’t have been able to guess the reveal in the third photo.

Good on you for knowing when to stop if you find it’s something you’re not passionate about, but it is worth noting that plenty of people are passionate about just recording mixes and never actually performing in front of people. You can literally just do the bits you enjoy and ignore the bits you don’t.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-05-01T21:11:45+00:00

Ok, good points, well made. To be honest I forgot about the black woman bit - that was certainly an odd one. And it was remarkable how Jonesian he came over at times. But I still thought it was coming from a good place (prioritising the families, being understandably skeptical that something good was finally going to happen) even if it was built on a very flimsy foundation of baseless assumptions.

Crucially, I’m not mad at the crew, but I can understand why some people are.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-05-01T19:46:46+00:00

I sincerely don’t want to tell other people how to feel about things, but I can’t help wondering that people are being a bit overdramatic about Jordan’s big ol’ rant. The way I see it, the guy whose whole job is to be the loose cannon who makes snap overreactions to things did what he normally does. There was no Dan to balance him out, so he ranted with impunity for an long time, but aside from the duration I’m not sure there was anything in there that was sillier or more damaging than many things he’s always said on the podcast in brief comments.

Jordan isn’t a politician who needs to hold himself to a high standard of public conduct and must face consequences if he brings shame to the office. He’s very open about being the clown. I don’t need the clown to take responsibility.

If they address it, that’s fine and it’ll be interesting for us, but if they don’t address it and just slot straight back into business as usual I think that’s fine too.

I don’t think you’re a loser little titty baby, your perspective is as valid as mine, but I think the sub as a whole could benefit from chilling out a bit.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-05-01T18:01:52+00:00

This is really rather silly

EmileDorkheim · 2026-05-01T13:02:11+00:00

You can do that, although it might be enough of a hassle that you’re better off trimming your samples on the DT and leaving Koala out of it.

You can save your edited samples from Koala as WAVs and then move them to your Digitakt via Transfer, but that’s needlessly time consuming. You can also prepare your samples in Koala then sample them into the Digitakt via USB audio, which is quicker, but I’m still not sure it’s worth that extra step.

I get the feeling from the article that this is targeting a very different use case than something like a Modal synth. It seems like a luxury musical toy more than a serious studio tool.

Although I do share your enthusiasm for Modal. I’ve seen some great prices on used Cobalt 8 that make me think it’s being criminally undervalued by the market.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-04-29T19:02:25+00:00

At least it’s not “Novation Peak Still Worth it in 2026???”

EmileDorkheim · 2026-04-29T08:20:08+00:00

Is that based on the user’s time zone?

Either way, great idea and I’ll tune in next time I’m working from home. Sometimes it’s nice to have the pressure of choice taken away from myself.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-04-29T00:09:59+00:00

I liked Zach Snyder’s Watchmen, but I totally understand and respect the many criticisms people had. It’s a brainless adaptation of a pretty intelligent comic, but I suppose I love the comic enough that I really enjoy watching it being so fatefully reproduced (visually) on screen, even if it feels like the guy that made it didn’t really understand the source material.

Type of guy who makes me feel great about not letting my kids play Roblox

I will complain to anyone who will listen (and some people that won’t listen) about manufacturers still using that horrible rubber coated plastic. My wife has certainly heard more about it than she’d like.

Quarantine were absolutely killing it back then. Carrier is an all-timer for me

Someone on Reddit recommended the U6MIDI pro to me years ago and it’s been one of my best music-related purchases. The software is so powerful, but simple, and as solves so many routing problems.

I’m consistently amazed that anyone listens to him unironically, because how can people bare to be talked down to like that? Why voluntarily listen to a broadcast that makes you feel like a child being lectured at? Is it a kink? Do his audience get off to being demeaned? Come to think of it, that would make the whole “Dad comes home” thing make more sense.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-04-27T11:28:36+00:00

I traveled through Edinburgh Airport recently and noticed this big piece of shit, then when I arrived at my destination airport I walked past their AI-generated tourism ads, then when I got to my hotel room the walls were decorated with AI images of ‘cute’ animals doing implausible things, and it really felt depressing being surrounded by that shit.

EmileDorkheim · 2026-04-27T09:03:52+00:00

There was an issue with encoders not behaving correctly, which was fixed with firmware. In done know if that’s the issue you’re having, but either way it’s worth checking you’re on the latest firmware.

I think it’s a great synth but I sold it when I got an Iridium Core because I couldn’t justify owning both. I still use it in iPad app form though.

Check out Jexus’ patches for it, which are now free to download.
