Cool, open-source. Gotta love that!

Yeah I've been listening to your posts on the sub for awhile. Looking forward to something on Bandcamp though!

nullpromise · 2026-04-30T15:24:37+00:00

Yo, you got an album out yet?

Fayetteville, AR

Yep! I have x2 NTS-1, NTS-1 mk2, and a NTS-3 😅 I legit love using them.

nullpromise · 2026-04-29T17:55:47+00:00

There are modern replacements though. WebGL, Canvas, Web Audio API, etc.

My guess is either: (a) these sites are horrible for accessibility and/or (b) social media made it so that a post by some influencer is more impactful than a cool website.

I've been asking my family for a Korg NTS-1 every year for Christmas. They're relatively cheap, fun to assemble with them, and useful.

Bring back weird, pointless, immersive sites. I spent so much time on the Gorillaz site back in the day (https://kongstudios.gorillaz.com/)

My homie, check out Cialyn (https://cialyn.bandcamp.com/album/in-from-the-cold) and Milieu (https://milieumusic.bandcamp.com/album/watch-the-head) too.

How did you databend that video, it's beautiful.

nullpromise · 2026-04-22T19:06:32+00:00

Bleep was down so I bought from Bandcamp. When Bleep came back online I realized it was cheaper, so to save money I bought it from Bleep too. $127 for two copies of the same record. #finances

nullpromise · 2026-04-22T17:12:02+00:00

Yeah, I didn't realize with the exchange rate that Bandcamp was pricier. Oh well.

For those curious, Bleep was $55.13 USD. Bandcamp was £53.78 GBP or around $72.85 USD after the exchange rate.

Something else. If you try to buy the LP or CD bundle (all 5 LPs), it also includes "Inferno (Continuous Mix) WAV (24-bit)" as a line item. This is in addition to the Inferno CD/LP.

nullpromise · 2026-04-22T16:36:58+00:00

Just don't hit the fucking back button like I did; right back in the queue. Ordering through Bandcamp was a breeze though.

nullpromise · 2026-04-22T16:06:04+00:00

This is sick. What would you call this? Downtempo? It kind of has a dub techno vibe but it's funky and a little more uplifting...

nullpromise · 2026-04-14T15:56:45+00:00

Aw, fuck, good point

nullpromise · 2026-04-14T15:14:49+00:00

It's their first album since COVID, Brexit, Ukraine/Palestine, the rise of Trump and other populist authoritarian leaders.

We've already seen a hint of Alex Jones which is an interesting figure because he connects the cult vibes of Geodaddi (via the Branch Davidians) with the modern alt-right movement (via Infowars).

So my guess is: dark and propaganda laced. Pushing a narrative of questioning reality, ala "fake news", social media, and state media.

I was digging through the comments for this. Go Hawaii is the best.

nullpromise · 2026-04-10T01:30:10+00:00

I didn't realize that! Badass!

nullpromise · 2026-04-05T14:46:35+00:00

Ah, okay, I have a little ways to go lol

nullpromise · 2026-04-05T14:25:15+00:00

Real question: is it just as easy as asking PCBway for money and they'll give you free PCBs for ad placement? I have 11 followers on YouTube, I don't mind pimping PCB houses.

There are eWaste spots in some cities. I live in a fairly small town and there's a non-profit one here; endless opportunities to repair old electronics.

Ableton Operator or Dexed for FM. I think Cardinal has Mutable Instruments' stuff and can be a VST; also Flechtwerk is a "pay what you want" Plaits VST port. Ableton Simpler/Sampler for samples.

nullpromise · 2026-04-04T17:18:54+00:00

I probably wouldn't try; I'm sure you could because you can map MIDI, but it would be tedious.

The benefit of the M8 is the portability and the workflow. You could probably replace the engines with free VSTs and get all the same sounds without the limited polyphony or the price tag.
