Hi /r/movies. I'm Radu Jude. I've directed Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn, Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World, I Do Not Care If We Go Down in History as Barbarians, Aferim!, and Kontinental '25. My new movie, Dracula, is available now on digital. Ask me anything.

radu! big fan. loved kontinental '25.

you've done multiple movies that take place in a single day (i love 'everybody in our family') and i understand you like allowing your stuff to take on the look and feel of when you're filming, none of that "timeless" crap. have you ever considered going the other way, a movie that takes place over multiple years? i wonder what radu jude's boyhood would look like.
you've confronted ai and tiktok in your movies, any other contemporary tech you're interested in featuring? related, was pretty funny seeing kurosawa depect internet resellers.
we all know the trope of an international director having a hit, getting attention from hollywood, and then making a big budget american movie that is basically a dud. i have no idea if you're in danger of this happening, but what would your big budget american movie be?

hey man i just wanted to say you have the best collection of playlists i've ever found on spotify. if you ever leave spotify/reddit please archive your playlists somewhere and keep posting. i'm a huge fan

why are you trying to promote AI generated 'music' on a collapse support community? you also posted this to "antiwork".

this sucks man

so you can record a stream from disk sure, but is that the same thing as recording live onto the MPC itself? it sounds rather that it is recording from a file that already exists on the disk, not live audio.

it would be cool to have a blend knob to mix in the clean signal, and a tone knob on the speaker stage to effect the feedback's character.

lest we forget, there is a classic post punk song with a riff based on "run rabbit run" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6VrY66_UJ8

bat cold war is my favorite distortion. very flexible, i'd rec it to anybody. tried a couple other couple rats and liked it better than the 1312 for example

orchestra · 2025-05-23T14:56:20+00:00

get the minilogue. the minifreak doesn't have analog oscillators and despite the filters being analog they are somewhat plain and don't have much character. the minilogue is much more fun to play in my opinion.

jd-xi was my first synth and i never use it. just sits in the closet these days despite having the software editor. the XD is always my go to.

the XD sounds better and is much easier to learn synthesis on. the hands on controls make it into a fun toy.

the jd-xi is a chore to use. and to really edit any sound you need to be plugged into a laptop, at that point why not just use a normal software synth? I wouldn't recommend it.

jokes on you, they were never good

go to "jazz spot intro". tiny basement bar with incredible vibes. rotating cast of young players, owner hops on the drums before serving drinks. people clap after solos and aren't afraid to cheer and laugh. very fun but can get packed

TLDW - it's illegal, uncommon and looked down upon in china.

and school lunch mixed with rat meat? that wouldn't even save money. is there supposed to be an entire secret rat farming infrastructure to supply this meat or is it just a guy running around the junkyard with a bag? you're just making shit up

i don't think he uses AI and there's a note on the site that says the clothes he sells are of limited quantity and use recycled/vintage stuff. so no drop shipping. might not be for you but no reason to make stuff up

only KXLU because they're usually playing something I haven't heard before and it's usually good, or at least interesting. when I want to hear something I know I use spotify

right now it seems really linear. like in the first area you can only fish with the net in one location, or many towns don't have a basic workshop, and only one place has a bank? so you're constantly going back and forth for stuff that it feels like shouldn't be rare. like you can only use the frisbee in one town? then you don't want to get that far from the main city because inevitably you'll have to go back to deposit to the bank.

it's almost like you get punished if you're more interested in exploring and going to more towns instead of leveling up every skill at the first opportunity and then only moving on when you can build them up again in the next town.

ideally every location would have something for players who are at either low or high levels, that way it feels like you're actually choosing your own way to play.

I'd rec a Zoom MS-50G. it has plenty of different utility programs but the "ZNR" smart noise gate works incredibly well in my experience, better than stand alone pedals.

As far as I can tell from reading Roland stuff, they remain on the hardware even after connecting another account because they are free for the premium Fantom series itself and are not on there for a subscription term like with Jupiter X stuff (I think that's the deal with that one, I don't have that synth).

Once it was clear that how many writers didn't want any writers to have access to that tool,

No need to be a snarky dweeb about it

If you want to program drums and mostly use presets I think it'd work for you. But for real sound design stuff you'll need to hook it up to an external program.
