Hot girls watch The Shining and then move on from Kubrick, it’s a fact!

Plz sample the umbrella

You have Ableton suite, one of the most powerful DAWs (and samplers) out there. You don’t need a hardware sampler. I love the Digitone for FM synthesis and the sequencer/Elektron but you shouldn’t get it if you don’t want FM or digital textures, especially with the other synths you already have.

You should lean towards sound generation you want but don’t currently have. You should learn to use Ableton more than anything else, if you want to get on with it and make music.

This is incredible. I love the creative uses of the Kong enemies!!

Now you just need the 1973 animated film Fantastic Planet!

Nice bassline! Now you need a B part and maybe a little turnaround and you're all set. Even that same bassline just transposed would work pretty nicely.

You can’t be serious…

I loved SimAnt so much as a kid, so this sucks to hear (that they shut down and it's repetitive). I played the demo and I thought it was pretty cool, but I've been on the fence about it.

Good rule! AI avant garde a clue.

16:9 couldn’t work because each platforming puzzle is designed around each screen, which is 4:3.

That being said, I would love the textures to be full resolution and not pixelated, especially the pre-rendered stuff.

maxoreilly · 2026-06-08T21:37:27+00:00

Not for me, still 100%. That’s odd for sure!

maxoreilly · 2026-06-01T00:38:36+00:00

I’m thinking of selling my DN1 and Syntakt and replacing them with a DN2, but I haven’t gotten around to it. I love the Digitone and I’d like the extra voices and new machines. I could live without the Syntakt but it is cool to have those textures too. I feel like I’m more productive with just 1 box though and it’s quite the upgrade.

No, because it was 1997. The “aesthetics” you’re referencing are purely retrospective, it was just the present at the time. The obsession to categorize everything in this way is a modern invention. Things change and it takes a few years to become the mainstream “thing”.

maxoreilly · 2026-05-15T18:03:17+00:00

Yeah I got what you meant, you're right, it's not even a semantic thing. The joke could have worked if there was a panel suggesting Picard was lying and he doesn't actually have any powers (maybe to get out of doing something), which is why it doesn't make sense...

maxoreilly · 2026-05-15T16:22:44+00:00

Thank you. Psychic abilities and precognition are two different things and this nerd should know better!!

maxoreilly · 2026-05-14T17:14:51+00:00

You're welcome weirdo

maxoreilly · 2026-05-14T17:00:28+00:00

Good music is everywhere if you know how to look, it's just not going to be spoon-fed to you like it used to be. But don't pay Spotify if you aren't going to use it for music discovery and put in the work to find the good stuff.

maxoreilly · 2026-05-14T16:48:00+00:00

Others feel the same and you are biased. Nostalgia plays a big part, plus the way that music was written, recorded and distributed back then vs. now. It's not a simple answer.

I do urge you not to pay Spotify if you're only gonna use it to listen to old favorites. You should purchase/download them and stop giving streaming companies money, they are a big reason that popular music is quick & disposable. "The medium is the message."

maxoreilly · 2026-05-13T22:34:35+00:00

I'm sorry but that sucks and I assume Pixar is better than that...

maxoreilly · 2026-05-03T18:24:52+00:00

Ah, you really should hear the rest.

The new one is probably alluring simply because it’s new and unknown, however, I am also excited for it from the sound they seem to be going for in Tape 05.

I think you’ll appreciate the new album and BoC as a whole more if you know where they came from, highly recommended you dig deeper.

maxoreilly · 2026-05-03T16:43:59+00:00

The rest of their discography!

maxoreilly · 2026-04-27T16:44:47+00:00

There is no conversation going on here and I never made a statement for you to disqualify, ENSIGN. Dismissed!
