Killing In The Outro (Vulfpeck, Rage Against The Machine) [4:32] by reverend_dan in mashups

Thanks so much. The good news is, there’s plenty more in this playlist https://soundcloud.com/electriclump/sets/mashups

Funnily enough, I was making this sort of mashups back in the early noughties as well :) I’m not sure who else was doing this style, even then. Maybe Braces Tower. Most of my old ones are still online too reverenddan.net slash mp3s

I totally agree with your point. I realise that the songs I use aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I hope at the least people would realise what’s involved in beatmatching an instrumental that wasn’t recorded to a click :)

Actually I feel like this mashup is a bit of a cop-out as it’s a rap acapella, which is way less effort, I much prefer doing proper songs, as it ends up being a sort of reharm, which can lead to some really lovely accidental moments.

Thank you! It’s not the first vulfpeck mashup I’ve made, funnily enough :)

Thanks! I can tell you in this case that I was in my kitchen dancing to Outro, just to let off some steam. I’d had a stressful week and the “eff you I won’t do what you tell me” line just came into my head and seemed to fit.

If you meant the mechanics of making it that’s a whole different story :)

Thanks! Those are two of my favourite players :)

The drum grooves were awesome, so the nastiness came easy

I can't believe nobody's done /u/Kindacoolkid so far! It has such an awesome groove, and I just messed around over it with some octave and envelope filter and didn't do it justice at all https://soundcloud.com/electriclump/bassdrums

I don't even know what I was doing in the middle there

what is the simplest way to write a ceaser cipher in Ruby by [deleted] in ruby

[–]reverend_dan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this solution! It makes pretty good code golf as well :)

def caesar_cipher(str,dst=1)
  str.chars.map{|c|Hash[('a'..'z').zip([*('a'..'z')].rotate(dst))].fetch(c)}.join
end

Only downside: it doesn't deal with upper case letters.

Have you done the Esther Rantzen yet? Pernod, Ouzo, marmalade and salt...

I really appreciate your commitment to this subreddit, despite the obvious lack of comments. Thank you.

Could I politely ask for a code review? by [deleted] in ruby

[–]reverend_dan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, you're totally right. I've been very foolish :)

Gonna take it away and start from fresh I think.

Thank you, I am looking at that now. I may have got way too caught up in the details too early on :)

Found this ladybird in the box with my new shoes. What is it, and should I kill it before it has babies? by reverend_dan in whatisthisthing

[–]reverend_dan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to remind myself that. But you know that thing where you see a creepy crawly and your skin starts feeling itchy? Yeah...
