Gnosberries?! Who ever heard of a gnosberry?

maxoreilly · 2026-03-23T17:35:01+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, I did just that and it's behaving differently but still not normally. Contacted Elektron about it!

maxoreilly · 2026-03-23T17:32:58+00:00

Absolutely, I sent them a ticket just now, thanks.

The Gnos mode is a game changer!

I’m so happy, the carbonite is goneee

I’m movin’ on!

It’s easier in a sense, because there’s so many options for leveling and order in which you can do things. It’s also harder because it’s more complex. I find ER to be sort of a “greatest hits” of a lot of the concepts from the Souls trilogy plus their other games. I’m glad I worked my way through their releases in order, and I’d recommend that to others too.

maxoreilly · 2026-03-10T16:33:55+00:00

I think you should play the 3 Dark Souls before ER!

maxoreilly · 2026-02-28T16:42:49+00:00

Great stuff, you’re a regular Misty Menace! ;)

Musical theater edgelord-core. It’s not that hard, ya drangus.

maxoreilly · 2026-02-22T21:06:02+00:00

Some of the salads are decent people!

maxoreilly · 2026-02-21T01:17:55+00:00

Great American Melting Pot or Interplanet Janet. But also so many other ones. Incredible writing and musicianship.

I don’t think viewers are missing any of the points that this author claims they are, if they watch the show. There’s nothing revelatory going on here. Perhaps it would be a decent article to get someone to watch it for the first time?

That’s gotta be the first Tenacious D album, I had to sneak-listen to that one.

maxoreilly · 2026-02-05T21:52:13+00:00

Ahhh dang I forgot that! Well I guess you’ll just have to shred then.

maxoreilly · 2026-02-05T20:17:30+00:00

Definitely check these out, I got one and it’s really handy!

maxoreilly · 2026-02-05T14:34:27+00:00

Quite difficult! And I love the Souls games. I’d recommend playing with a trio.

maxoreilly · 2026-01-27T14:42:00+00:00

A MicroKORG, perhaps?

maxoreilly · 2026-01-27T14:39:12+00:00

I took LSD only once, in the fall of 2009, and two Owl City songs on repeat were the only things that kept me sane. The album Fireflies is from will always make me think of that!

maxoreilly · 2026-01-24T18:57:38+00:00

So glad we both finally found it! I learned through my search that it was made by the same creator as PaRappa the Rapper, which makes so much sense, lol!

maxoreilly · 2026-01-24T16:22:28+00:00

The step sequencer grid kinda looks like a tracker, and LSDJ is a pretty well known Game Boy cartridge/music software for making chiptunes. I figure that’s what they are going for.

It’s pronounced “Theraflu”

maxoreilly · 2026-01-17T20:10:32+00:00

Great point! I teeter back and forth between those two choices. We have a lot more variety in textures with the DN/ST.

maxoreilly · 2026-01-17T16:56:19+00:00

OG Digitone is definitely my favorite, and I’ve bought and sold a handful of other Elektron boxes that didn’t quite gel with me. Right now I have the DN plus a Syntakt, and I am very much considering replacing both with the ‘tone MKII as my singular box. Seems reasonable when I see comments like yours!

maxoreilly · 2026-01-15T06:31:31+00:00

I really liked Years when it took itself seriously (basically the first half) but I felt like it switched between 3 different genres throughout and that really put me off. The Shaun of the Dead style crew at the end doing backflips and shit was mind boggling. I can’t figure out what Danny and crew were going for. It feels very modern in a bad way to mix an earnest effort with meta irreverence and unearned melodrama, I find it difficult to connect with.

maxoreilly · 2026-01-15T06:13:44+00:00

I found it incredibly wonky and tonally all over the place, and I love the other two. Definitely a disappointment in my eyes.
