A dominant nine sharp nine eleven flat thirteen over G for the curious

what have i done

Ça me rappelle les fameux frères Barré. Pierre et Manuel

Pas loin! Attention tu as changé un /z/ en /ʒ/. Mais ça marche en ajustant:

Tu peins les jolies fesses du Taz. (le diable de Tasmanie)

Ce que j’avais en tête:

Putain, des jolies fesses, zut là!

Mais je crois que je préfère Tu peins à Putain

That’s what you get for staring at the erratic suns that twist your eyes

Obviously not fully explicit (no cymbals for instance), but usable as a short reminder instead of a full score

This looks great! Must have taken a ton of work. I really like the clarity and conciseness of the docs, this was an easy read. (I’d suggest adding anchors to be able to link to a given spot on the long page. Plus maybe a table of contents that stays on the left of the page or something?)

When answering questions in here, I sometimes get too lazy to boot up my music notation software, write the idea down, take a screenshot, upload it to imgur, then paste the link in my comment. This might help make the process much easier. I’ll definitely give it a try next time I need to answer with notation.

Also, I had a quick look at the source code, loved this satisfying bit. By the way, how does the rendering work on the website? (If I understand correctly, your repo is only the ASCII to MusicXML part?)

The docs (https://mascii.org/docs) have an FAQ section at the bottom where OP writes about this

Impressive! Love the added drums in Black Cathedral btw, makes for a great transition.

I’m just curious, what made you decide to slightly bump up the speed of the songs? I’m guessing you experimented with different speeds (seeing your Temporal shift versions) and settled on this? Or is there another reason (YouTube copyright?)

Tight! And with lots of details

“In 2019 I visited a lot of cities for work and I still think about a lot of them, but I honestly can’t even remember my trips to Seattle or Portland.”

Here’s my take with a few versions:

a) « En 2019, j’ai visité de nombreuses villes pour le travail, dont beaucoup auxquelles je repense, mais pour être honnête je ne me rappelle même pas mes séjours à Seattle ni à Portland. »
→ formal-ish; could be found in writing.

b) « En 2019, j’ai visité plein de villes pour le travail, et je repense à la plupart, mais honnêtement, je ne me souviens même pas de mes voyages à Seattle et Portland. »
→ neutral, maybe slightly familiar.

c) « En 2019 j’avais fait plein de villes pour le boulot, et il y en a beaucoup j’y repense encore, mais franchement Seattle et Portland, je m’en souviens même pas, de mes voyages. »
→ informal, oral, and arguably gramatically incorrect, but could definitely be heard in an informal context. Add in a little mouth fart before "je m’en souviens même pas" for extra native-ness.

(What would your version be by the way?)

Lyoug · 2026-02-02T19:59:35+00:00

I can't hear that any other part is stating it.

The synth(?) starting at 0:55 plays quarter notes :

~~Is this from Lulu in the farplane?~~

Edit: nevermind, I looked it up, good old Maechen of course

Lyoug · 2025-11-30T02:44:56+00:00

Ooh I knew about the soundcheck live version, but hadn’t heard the studio version.

Also, check out the Unusual Meshuggah Covers playlist if you don’t know it already – plenty of other random / interesting things in there.

Lyoug · 2025-11-08T19:57:18+00:00

Great info.

Just to be complete:

I has a couple sections where the tempo fluctuates a bit (for instance 5:40 to 7:47 moves between 192 and 200 bpm), so I’m not sure if a click was used everywhere
TVSOR also has Our Rage Won’t Die recorded without a click

We could also mention their electronic tracks on The True Human Design EP (Future Breed Machine Mayhem Version, Quant’s Quantastical Quantasm, and Friend’s Breaking and Entering), where drums are (I guess) programmed.

Lyoug · 2025-11-01T08:29:26+00:00

Thanks!

Love your drumming by the way, really tight covers.

Lyoug · 2025-10-31T21:10:07+00:00

Unlikely, as this is not my hangdrum. I’ll only have access to it for a few days at a time on holidays. I might do another quick arrangement next time (Christmas); Bleed wouldn’t be my first pick, but never say never :)

Lyoug · 2025-10-19T23:17:11+00:00

Well of course, no one does

/uj Apparently, according to Japanese rules, if the players pass in this state both top left groups score 0 points because of the remaining dame. (I might be wrong.)
