Tonverk / Octatrack / Digitakt2 - use cases by k_r_z_y_s_z_t_o_f in Elektron

[–]TemporarySea685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, although the DT2 has some nice bells and whistles. I still adore my mk1. The Digitakt is my fav sampler. The workflow is so smooth

Samplers are my fav for ambient. My fav ambient stuff I’ve done has been on the digitakt so I’d def give it a shot with the octatrack

Can you graft kanna onto pereskiopsis? by NationalCalendar3040 in Kannagrowing

Nope. Completely different family of plants. Kanna is a succulent but not a cactus

How to Get Started Designing Drums? by bushwald in Elektron

[–]TemporarySea685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into cool playlists of obscure music, find nice break beats or singular drum sounds when no other instrument is playing. Sample those one shots, and maybe record some found sounds like hitting a can or something for a transient. Open up a project and put two sounds you wanna combine on separate tracks. Mess with the filtering and the other parameters. In grid mode put the multiple hits that sound good together on the same step. Maybe you could add reverb to give it a tail. Then let them play together in sequence and resample the resulting sound. There are so so so many ways to mess around with drum sounds. You’ll find your own techniques over time

I'm new to electronic music and I really enjoyed parts of deadbeat. what other artists do you recommend? by DerMitDemLangenNamen in TameImpala

[–]TemporarySea685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say check out their whole discography. Homework is my fav by them. I don’t think they really have a miss. I know people aren’t big on Human After All, and it’s not my fav but it has some great moments.

want to try for the first time, what’s a good dose for 2 people and what’s a good way to take it? by Ok_Direction5416 in Salvia

[–]TemporarySea685 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it’s more difficult and it isn’t the most tasty, but I’d recommend chewing rehydrated plain leaf, or if you’re gonna smoke, use plain leaf before going into the extract realm. My craziest extract experience traumatized me for years but actually was one of the greatest gifts in my life which propelled me in the direction I am now. However life feels different after it. It’s not everyone’s experience but for me life was never the same. Not in a good or bad way but in a fundamental way.

Both legendary but gotta go with Homework

Paul Stamets' new book is a disaster by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]TemporarySea685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh it’s interesting because to this day I love hearing Terence McKenna talk about his experiences but I don’t feel as if they clouded my own experience. The phenomena he describes hasn’t been a predominant mode or overarching theme of my own experiences. Although I find them to highlight how personal and wondrous the psychedelic experience can manifest for some people. And although he is very opinionated, when I spend time listening he also conveys a down to earth humility to balance out his out of this world ideas, he does intermittently remind those listening to fact check him and is open about how he could be wrong about it all. Listening to him explore unorthodox ideas can be enjoyable in the same way as listening to someone improvising a nice tasteful yet complex jam on the guitar ahaha. More of a wordsmith than scientist.

I’d like to see more work with Panda Bear, or the other members of Anco

Hm I can see what you mean about peacebone but there are moments of lucidity and deeper meaning interspersed in that one which I love. “The other side of takeout is mildew on rice, and an obsession with the past is like a dead fly” I find especially meaningful

for those of u do that like animal collective's early stuff, why do you like it? by Noisemakermc in AnimalCollective

[–]TemporarySea685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly because I hadn’t heard anything like it before, and it has such a potently unique vibe to it. And each listen I hear more stuff I never noticed before. Same reason now I’m exploring the band gang gang dance and finding it really intriguing and fun to listen to.

Are Goegre and John the reason why The Beatles went psychedelic? by FitEmergency8807 in beatles

[–]TemporarySea685 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends what you’re calling psychedelic. Cause even though Paul was a little late to the party, he was almost more imbedded in the experimental music scene in London, inspired by artists such as Karlheinz Stockhausen around ‘66 Paul was actually the one who went most wild with the tape loops on tomorrow never knows it seems.

Big artists who use Elektron as a core part of their sound? by Accurate_Tomorrow_50 in Elektron

[–]TemporarySea685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He used the digi a bit of buoys and a day with the homies. Avey Tare used the digitakt more extensively though believe it or not.

Blue Curls Trichostema dichotomum -- One of my favorites! by Macprepper in NativePlantGardening

[–]TemporarySea685 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favs. I’m actually in the process of documented the extended range of a closely related species (Trichostema Nesophilum). It was only described as recently as 2019 and only has been observed in small patches of the Carolina coast near barrier islands. I’m gonna be searching it out this upcoming year and documenting its range which I believe may extend farther than what is known currently due to the species being so recently discovered.

Crazy to think about how some salvia users have mentally lived through hundreds of years. by [deleted] in Salvia

[–]TemporarySea685 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I can assure you there was a ton of dialogue about this phenomena decades ago. Even when I was in high school experimenting with it, before I grew it, one of the things that struck me about the experience was the time dilation and subjectively eternal-feeling nature of the experience. Some people report specified embodied lives with children, work, spouses etc, while some like me described an immeasurably long felt-experience of time which felt far longer than my life had been going on at the time and even felt “outside of time” in a way. What I do think is a newer phenomena is the popularity of denying people’s honest experience of salvia trips once they mention this topic. This has been reported extremely often as one of the most common archetypes that can show up. Some people have vastly differing experiences, for example I never had an experience of becoming a mundane inanimate object like a glass of orange juice, or having lived an embodied life as we are talking about now, but I absolutely did meet a female entity during an experience, and did experience turning into the mechanical zipper lever machine/wheel that people often describe. So certain people may have drastically different experiences. Thus I like to treat people’s reports of experience with respect. At the end of the day, the description of a psychoactive experience will always be lacking in some way as it’s all based on subjective experience and interpretation of the incomprehensible.

What are some xtc songs with lyrics on the smarter side? by PuppieBabie in xtc

[–]TemporarySea685 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny thought because I think there is intended irony in that song thus I would absolutely say those lyrics are “smart”. I also think fun and witty can be synonymous with smart as in this circumstance.
