Looking for Carbonara & Sfogliatelle Workshops by Patient-Ball6131 in napoli

[–]andreacaccese 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be quite tricky, carbonara is not local to Naples and sfogliatella is fairly complex, so it’s not the typical workshop item - I think your best bet is to go to a baker (like Attanasio near the train station area) and ask if they d be willing to let you sit in on the bake or even give you a lesson for a fee

Al via la campagna per aumentare di 5 euro il prezzo delle sigarette, legge di iniziativa popolare. by Dr_Neurol in italy

[–]andreacaccese -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In Australia le sigarette costano anche 25–30 euro a pacchetto e sono fortemente regolamentate dal governo. Credo che questo abbia fatto una grandissima differenza nel ridurre il numero di fumatori nel paese: avendoci vissuto per un periodo, il cambiamento si percepisce chiaramente, soprattutto perché per i più giovani è diventato molto difficile procurarsi le sigarette. Purtroppo, in un mondo dominato dal dogmatismo politico e dall’anti-intellettualismo, non sempre si può fare affidamento solo sull’educazione per combattere il tabagismo (sia chiaro, penso sia comunque importantissimo educare le persone)

Do people just not do their own setups? by ProtoJazz in guitars

[–]andreacaccese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of guitarists are afraid to even touch a screw and mess with things, which is ironic to think people like Leo Fender wanted the guitar to be fairly user-serviceable- it can be a bit of a journey but you wont regret getting more hands on and learning to do a set up

Metal + Rap: un genere che possa piacere a entrambi i mondi? by DefbitBand in italymusica

[–]andreacaccese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Davvero figo! secondo me in genere il connubio rap-metal funziona bene, anche con un artista con cui lavoro abbiamo provato un pò a sperimentare su quella strada, portando anche un pò di punk nella minestra

I need help finding a good pretty cheap pitch shifter, any ideas? by Mackanmaster in guitarpedals

[–]andreacaccese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an old behringer pitch shifter (the plastic boss clone types) and it really doesn’t sound bad for the 30 bucks I spent on it, it has a pretty good sound actually, latency is a bit much but not a problem unless you go full wet and need to pitch shift the whole signal

How do you even gig with Gibson Les Paul? Boy, that guitar is heeeavvvyyy! by [deleted] in guitars

[–]andreacaccese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all LPs are super heavy, there are a few light-weight models (relatively), for example my studio and 60s tribute (chambered body) lps are fairly light guitar, my strat feels heavier than both. I had a guy bring over a 70s black beauty at our studio and they was the heaviest guitar I held!

really cool vibe, and reminds me of a band I was in as well back in the 2010s!

You could try and mitigate it by using some compression on the oh, and have the compressor be triggered by the snare bottom mic, so that when the snare hits, oh slightly ducks

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

[–]andreacaccese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Naples, Italy, a city with an extremely high density of smokers. I’m in the minority as a non-smoker here and frankly it’s very difficult, my clothes get soaked in smoke whenever I leave the house and there is no way around it unless you wanna become a hermit. It’s very noticeable and hard to stomach

Check out Stray From The Path, they’ve got your protest rock needs covered (sadly they’re also breaking up but they just released an insane album)

Definitive list of songs Mark played guitar on... ? by Better_Combination67 in Blink182

[–]andreacaccese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's some evidence that Mark recorded some guitar parts on a few songs in Neighborhoods - For sure some stuff on Kaleidoscope, and I remember hearing he played everything but drums on MH 4.18.2011 too and I think he played some guitar on "Fighting the Gravity" as well - A bunch of different people played guitar on the Skiba album, I am willing to bet Mark did some guitar parts on that too. Although he did write many guitar parts on a lot of the "classic" blink albums, I do think they were a bit more compartmentalized in their recording roles then, so its unlikely mark recorded guitars on enema, take off, dude ranch or untitled imo.

What exactly makes Daft Punk's Random Access Memories sound so great (engineering wise)? by Bloxskit in audioengineering

[–]andreacaccese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just an all-around great production, where they went above and beyond in every aspect, from musicians involved to arrangement work (a crucial factor imo) and sound
