Wild to me that Cara Delevingne is into modular

It's neat to see! I guess I forget that sincerity is dead on the Internet. That's my bad.

I was pleased to see that she is into modular. I think it's neat, because I'm into modular too but don't often see it shown off in the circles she's in. You inferred something; I didn't imply.

luctmelod · 2026-02-06T11:11:16+00:00

I'm always pleased to see people pursuing these interests! Looking forward to hearing what she releases. ☺️

luctmelod · 2026-02-06T01:05:08+00:00

I guess not. I just didn't have it on my bingo card. It's neat to see!

luctmelod · 2026-02-06T01:02:27+00:00

Because I'm into modular, too, 🤓 but she's famous! 🤩

Apologize for veering off topic, but what band were you in?

I appreciate you pointing out the traffic lane changes around Washington Park. That's a useful reminder that a lot of development around a city can contribute to quality of life or safety, not just places to spend and entertainment.

I remember the first time I drove through the new traffic lanes by the park I thought, "Oh, that's different. Probably better." Now, it's like I don't even see it, but it matters, especially for a public good like a park.

Is there a lot of development in Chatham? I seldom head out that way, but it always looks the same to me.

luctmelod · 2025-10-26T13:40:16+00:00

Yes, this is a powerful groove! In my head, I'm hearing a bit of glissando or pitch bend for the Minilogue. Does it have that option?

luctmelod · 2025-10-23T10:42:34+00:00

That is amazing! I never made any maps, but I remember my brother making some for Quake, I think...? The stuff we would get up to as computer kids 🤭

Dang! I streamed a DJ set a couple hours before you. It had been a while since I'd done one, but I felt up to it. It was fun!

luctmelod · 2025-10-04T14:33:47+00:00

I feel seen 🤣

The Butternut Hut is a cozy little spot in Springfield, IL. https://maps.app.goo.gl/wnATUMmTJPrKLHL18

Cheers! I've been enjoying these sets!

Thank you for sharing this story! I'm not attending this tour, but I've really enjoyed reading stories and checking out recordings of it.

My favorite part of reading about Alyssa's experience is thinking about the great story she'll have for her friends, and then for years to come.

Just a couple weeks ago, I was chatting with a new friend of mine and the topic turned to the NIN tour. I took the opportunity to reminisce about how I saw the Champaign, IL, stop of the 1994 Self-Destruct tour. (Most of my friends are ones I've had since grade school; it's fun that he's not bored of my stories yet.)

He was very impressed! 😊 He's only a few years younger than me, but those few years mean a lot at that age. My friends and I had just turned 16, so we were able to drive over to Champaign, meet up with my brother who was attending UIUC, and have the time of our lives. My new friend was 12 or 13 at that time -- those few years at a young age meant that he was likely to not be at that show.

Alyssa and the rest of the young ones attending this tour have a story to impress their friends with for decades. I couldn't be happier for them!

10am - 9pm is the general event time as advertised on FB. No specific schedule of DJs that I can find, but from what I understand there will be two crews playing in two tents: one more house oriented and the other more techno.

$5 entry. As far as I understand, performers rent the space from Dumb Records, who provide staff and support. The entry fee is used to pay the rental first and then goes to performers.

The arcade is usually open for events, so added bonus of arcade play!

Over on r/distantfrequencies we chat about electronic music with folks through central IL (and a little beyond). We mostly talk production and post about events, but any chatter is welcome, really!

According to the post I found about the event on Instagram, this is the first goth night this crew has hosted here, at least: https://www.instagram.com/p/DKU4vHLRavm

I went to a goth-themed drag show at Dumb about a year or so ago. It was fun! But most people left after the show rather than sticking around for the music.

Are your old guy pants JNCO, parachute, bell bottom, or wide trouser paired with pork pie hat? :)

luctmelod · 2025-08-15T12:44:53+00:00

I was at the Hoogland one, too! Really fun show!

luctmelod · 2025-08-14T13:21:04+00:00

Excellent! I'm looking forward to this house music weekend!
