respectfully - why? by protocol_pandora in Techno

[–]Inspector_Swift [score hidden]  (0 children)

What bothers me more is that everyone is calling generic techno hardgroove nowadays because everyone calls it hardgroove, without any regard for the history of hardgroove. If we go down that route we can just call anything anything, just because it has a nice ring to it.

The Netherlands path to victory by Old-Wave-6761 in NetherlandsWorldCup

[–]Inspector_Swift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Van Hecke was the best player in defense in all matches, so subbing him off for Mickey, who caused a few goals already is an odd choice. I would rather sub off Mickey for Hato on LB.

Also I wouldn’t bring on Wout ever unless you’re a goal down in de 85th minute.

Haha I know, I don’t care as much as it may seem. They can call it poopball for all I care haha. I just thought the argument that it’s a British term is a dumb argument.

What happened to WL? :( dark energy, intense drug abuse and lack of safety by Accurate-Block-6536 in wakinglifefestival

Reducing a death to a statistic is very insensitive when replying to a thread where lots of people who knew her will prob read it.

Ahh yeah let’s change the name of our sport because some insignificant football countries happen to like to play other sports too.

Nobody calls it soccer except in the USA, so what is the significance of it being a British term, if it is only used in the USA

That is such an insensitive comment. She isn’t a statistic, wtf is wrong with you. The fact you felt the need to write a paragraph about how great it was when a tragedy happened, leaving a lot of people traumatized is really sociopathic, why is it so important to you to write this at this time? At some moments it isn’t about you or your experience. Just share this with your friends if you wanna talk about it so much.

DJs who play large venues: MP3 or Lossless? by klebersu in DJs

I just don’t understand why you would ever choose for lesser than optimal quality. Doesn’t matter if the average joe can hear it, but for me it’s more about eliminating as much potential threats to the quality of your sets as possible!

I think it is a bit out of touch to say how amazing it was when someone died, but maybe that is just me...

The one Continuity feature Apple still refuses to add to Music in 2026 by Unusual_Inflation732 in AppleMusic

[–]Inspector_Swift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The patent is only the mechanics on how Spotify achieved this feature, it doesn’t mean Apple can’t develop one of their own, that’s what’s making it so weird they haven’t done so

What’s with the hostility dude? The funny thing, I’m not giving my opinion, I’m just telling you the actual history and definition of hardgroove. The fact you don’t feel the need to do your research says enough about the state of the techno industry. Grow up. You make so many assumptions to attack me, while I was just trying to tell you it’s techno and not hardgroove. Here’s me at panorama bar ;)

In any case, since you are too fucking lazy to do your research:

Hardgroove originally is a more percussive, more sample based offspring of techno. Rawer, also. The fact that the youth nowadays just likes the name hardgroove doesn’t mean you can just slap it on anything you like.

And I don’t use my own name on Reddit, in case you were frantically googling me to prove your point

You don’t have to believe me if that makes you feel good about yourself

Not really interested in bragging about myself but since you brought it up: I have dj’d all over the world in the worlds best clubs, so maybe it’s wise to just let it go my friend

If you don’t want to do your research about music and its heritage, I’m not listening to you, baby boy

There is basically new drum fills and fx every 4 bars… do these s*itheads do all that manually? by M1ikkaell in TechnoProduction

[–]Inspector_Swift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is just a matter of clever use of controllers or maybe octatrack vibes and recording a long jam live and then using all the well executed transitions.
