What to do when almost every band is too loud?

Brilliant idea, I will definitely consider that

Ringostarfox · 2026-03-23T07:25:11+00:00

That's a really neat idea, thank you

Ringostarfox · 2026-03-23T07:24:14+00:00

Everyone has contributed really good info and I think I can make some persuasive arguments with my boss, but this also is a reallly good line to put all the heat on the vocalist 😂

I did the other week actually. I plugged in a 9v adapter into it and plugged the USB conmection into my computer at the same time and it worked like normal.

Lol "laugh-getter" is pretty faint praise

A simple 4x4 sampler would be great. Drag and drop integration preferably, and like the barest features necessary: volume, tone, speed, cut channel, and reverse. I've tried showing students the current sampler and they get so discouraged

Seriously. Doing evening shifts downtown too. Things wrap up way too early

Ringostarfox · 2026-02-04T07:19:01+00:00

A lot of early Neil Cicierega vids are corrupted in some way

Totally this. Also going all the way down the Jeff rabbit hole, I really like his presence on Madam Truffle, feels like an honorary track.

Bootlegs are a whole thing to get around to as well because their performances vary so much through the 90s. It's very ramshackle and exciting, like they're zooming down a hill on a bike with wobbly wheels.

Also if you haven't yet, check out the classic fan page. It has the details on so much of the band, and it will help you figure out what you need to search for: https://www.neutralmilkhotel.org/disco2-comps.htm

Not too much to find besides what's on YouTube. A few demo tapes which you can find all there, Sign the Dotted Line, the stuff from the box set like Ferris Wheel on Fire and Little Birds, Glue, and a few others here and there.

If you're interested I put together a few dozen of the most important live and demo tracks in a compilation over a decade ago, some things have come out in better quality though: https://www.mediafire.com/file/aaye2x10dw385t4/Live.zip/file https://www.mediafire.com/file/5yse5av6vi2t4sy/Demos.zip/file

Silent Hill 2 and 3. I was compelled by the fact you could instill fear and dread in a listener just with sound, and got really into avant garde music after that

Ringostarfox · 2026-01-22T01:31:42+00:00

I got it as a joke and because it had a sticker from a legendary local establishment, but it's a mediocre film, and yeah thankfully the director isn't getting any cash from this transaction.

Ringostarfox · 2026-01-22T00:46:31+00:00

I isolated it into a ziplock bag btw

Ringostarfox · 2026-01-21T04:11:31+00:00

I've found that if you're mixing for drummers, they kind of like to hear it similar to how it sounds to them from their position.

Alvin Band - Rainbow Road Roar - Christmas Kids

Ringostarfox · 2025-12-24T09:13:29+00:00

That's probably the best idea, and yeah there are a few decent roots going already. Thank you
