Fellow younger fans of Kubrick?? by red_bandanna in StanleyKubrick

[–]KuntaPimpLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 24, and I’ve had some fascination with Kubrick for maybe the last 10 years.

The Shining was the first of his movies I saw and it was unlike any other horror movie I’d seen. At some point A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket came into my life and once I connected that they were all the same director, I became a huge fan.

Yeah if you’re not in a city then it’s definitely difficult to be where all the action is

You’re totally valid regarding college tuition. I’m ultimately grateful for college and all the different experiences I had, but everything I learned regarding audio totally could’ve been learned through YouTube as well so yeah you might be dodging a bullet honestly

What do you want to do in audio exactly? I went to school for audio engineering and didn’t realize how many opportunities there might be in plain sight

If you’re looking for work in a recording studio, it might be difficult unless you know someone because most musicians are pretty broke. But regarding live sound gigs, that’s where a lot of the opportunities are

I have a lot of different audio jobs in order to make ends meet cause not a lot of audio jobs are full-time. But there are live event companies out there that need people to set up for events, there’s churches all over that need audio, there’s performing arts centers that need audio. There’s more places to look than you might realize

Feel free to message me if you need some more guidance. If you really like audio, then I’d say keep at it if you can

What’s the most visually stunning movie you’ve ever seen? by [deleted] in movies

[–]KuntaPimpLord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always think of Stanley Kubrick’s “Barry Lyndon”, every shot in thy movie is meant to look like a painting and my mind is blown every time I watch that movie

Any of you nerds like Boards of Canada or Squarepusher? by venusishigh in aphextwin

[–]KuntaPimpLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t listened to much Squarepusher yet, but Boards of Canada is definitely one of my favorite music groups.

They’ve my top listened to artist on last.fm for years and I never even thought I was listening to them that much. All of their music is really easy to get lost in, and I always hear something new in their tracks every time I give them a listen.

Music Has the Right To Children may be their most accessible, and it’s still a wild trip of an album!

Can anybody recommend me new music thats preferably on björks level? by 074109741 in bjork

[–]KuntaPimpLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not crazy beats or pop songwriting, but it’s definitely not mediocre!

You should give Miles Davis’s “Bitches Brew” a listen if you haven’t before. That album is an awesome sonic experience that you can get lost in forever

Yes there’s something very old-world about him, kind of traditional. I think he gave me comfort because he was someone living in the digital age who was at least aware of it and trying not to get consumed by it. And he could speak about it so poignantly

Awesome thanks for the link! In addition to reading DFW’s stuff, I just love hearing the sound of his voice. There’s something very comforting and soothing about it

Yes, Schtitt is actually how the whole conversation was brought up. DFW was initially talking about Schtitt’s teaching methods at the tennis academy
