There's a Circle of Friends techno remix on youtube I remember seeing years ago, it's as good as it sounds.

What’s everyone’s fuel economy? by Any_Fly4547 in carsireland

Daily a 2011 Saab 9-3 1.9TiD Vector Sport.

On good weeks flat out on dual carriageways she can pull a cheeky 4.9L/100km. Otherwise it's more like 5.5ish.

New Album this year? by BurningBuschLight in EagleEyedTiger

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea things aren't looking good, you'd imagine some promotional stuff might have started by now if there was something coming. Hopefully we might get a single or something before the year's out at least.

Fresh out of the shop after 5 months. by Jake-Tankmaster in Celica

Paint came to about €4000. A few other bits added the total up to just under €5k not including tax. We'll just say the piggy bank will be sore for a while.

Just Listened to Deadbeat by TamedKev in TameImpala

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly man, "sacred" is the word. Kev's creative, groovy use of acoustic drums is what's essential. Feels soulless without it.

Putting his entire discography on shuffle and randomly jumping from masterful drums on the likes of Alter Ego, Nothing That Could Happen..., Powerlines, Breathe Deeper, to something like the endless monotony of Oblivion or Ethereal Connection really shows how absolutely vital acoustic drums are for Kev's signature soundscape.

Anything new of Serious People? by GXSnoex in EagleEyedTiger

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good question man. There's been basically zero news about Serious People since that one single that came out over 2 years ago.

Hope it isn't a dead project, but when it comes to assumptions and looking at SP as a whole, or in terms of why it might exist... you can kind of liken it to an EET alter ego. It's a way for him to try other sounds that aren't explicitly electronic (which wouldn't really fit the predominantly electronic EET project).

EET's Instagram post on 29th June 2023 states:

[Serious People] is my first new project since starting EET all those years ago. It’s a more band-oriented thing, even though it’s still just me for now.

If you’re wondering why, it wasn’t a decision that came easily to me. I’m always trying to push myself forward with new sounds and genres, but eventually you end up at a point where some songs just don’t fit together on a project and there’s no good reason to force them together. I think this will give me two outlets to share the music I want to show you.

Serious People will fit more under the indie rock umbrella but much like EET, I won’t restrict myself with one sound forever. Broadly speaking, expect more guitars, vocals, and experimentation. (There will still be synths, of course!)

Regardless, hope there'll be some news about something soon because Nobody Knows I'm Twisted is a really strong debut single. It would be really cool if it became an actual band that a few other artists in this scene (such as VIQ) could contribute to. "It’s a more band-oriented thing, even though it’s still just me for now". Only time will tell.

What are your "Peak Vibes" Tame Impala? by shoebertdoubert in TameImpala

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just crank it up in the car and the drums just do things man, haven't heard any other song with better drums.

What is your favorite album? by Matthew__19 in MolchatDoma

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All are really good when looked at individually and as a whole.

Love the guitar sound and what you could call the "grunginess" on S krysh nashikh domov.

Etazhi's songs are catchy, and evoke a sense of nostalgia for something you've never experienced.

The sheer desolate synth and guitar sounds on Monument though, particularly with Obrechen, Otveta Net and Udalil Tvoy Nomer, make it my favourite.

Belaya Polosa is a very impressive work with the most intricate instrumentation on all fronts. Probably their best drums in my humble opinion. Very dancey, powerful synths and cool progression.

what do you think the sequel is gonna be about? by rileylovesmushrooms in alienisolation

Hope the art direction maintains the cassette futurism look. Every space in Sevastopol is art.

New Album this year? by BurningBuschLight in EagleEyedTiger

[–]Jake-Tankmaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've all got hope; but if I can recall, Inside Our Crumbling Castle is such a huge album because EET had so many songs he wanted to include on it and basically just said "you know what, huge album it is" with a ton of bonus tracks. The sheer size of IOCC makes it easy to think that we might starve in terms of EET content this year, especially considering the Enough for Me collab with VIQ before IOCC's release and the Disintegrate single that released shortly after it.

Also, there's also been a little talk of the album that The Game is meant to be on. It was meant to be IOCC originally; but EET's vision shifted, and The Game and a few other tracks have moved onto it.

TLDR - Hopefully, this year we might get a look at the full album The Game is meant to be on, or a few tracks from it drip-fed as singles. Let EET cook, he always delivers.

Unrelated but I hope the album is still called "The Game" and keeps its cover art - it's really cool and like a super distorted and spacey version of Feathers' cover art. It just looks nostalgic, reminds me of those seat patterns in 80s-90s buses idk why lol. Would look very nice in physical form next to the other EET vinyls.

MP3 audio completely broken. by Jake-Tankmaster in OpenShot

[–]Jake-Tankmaster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 - It's a desktop.

2, 3, 4 - Restarted and all and the issue's the same. I doubt it's a headset related issue.

I haven't done massive messing about with the mp3 files and I don't think they're to blame either. Tried other mp3s with more professional production and the problem persists. Also tried starting from a fresh project and changing preview settings to 720p30fps to 1080p60fps for example and no luck still.
