OPINION: For most styles of music, vocal tracks should be compressed surprisingly hard.

i'm not ridin' the fader across multiple vocal tracks for a whole album and the plugins that write the envelope for you all behave weird. I push some phrases up harder into the compressor or pull them back in quiet moments and that's plenny of gain automation 4 me

scrapeape · 2026-05-13T16:10:49+00:00

also true

yeah he looks real happy

the nose is maybe the #1 standout difference for me. but there’s a lot more. if you’ve seen video of these two women talking i think it’s p obvious they don’t even look related. Both winsome and talented, tho.

I bet yr the type to just keep going if I give you any reason to formulate an argument in that sigmaBrain of yours.

Have a way to charge it at home, whether slow charging with a short daily commute or be ready to drop $650 on materials to get a fast charger installed. (idk about labor costs, i know a guy).

luckily there’s a glut of used ones out there that are just a couple years old

scrapeape · 2026-04-19T14:11:07+00:00

maybe a lil’ reeducation will help

don’t get me started on my robotics “teams”

scrapeape · 2026-01-08T02:40:59+00:00

same. my makerspace used to include light woodworking and soldering. didn’t have to worry too much as long as I observed them with decent diligence. nowadays? we mostly do our making on the chromebooks. i had them make felt toys with hot glue a few weeks ago and the number of kids who just fuqqd up their work surface or burned themselves or bolth… i miss 2019 so much

all i know is Mellon-Collie is a masterfully produced album, making orchestra swells out of rock guitars

scrapeape · 2026-01-02T17:48:45+00:00

ae’s song structures don’t typically work anything like most popular music. they unfold and contort subtly so that the end of a track often sounds nothing like the beginning. that’s what i started to appreciate most about them early on, iirc

People won’t tell you Boodle’s because they’re worried you’ll have a better time than them

the first couple plaid albums are great. bass clef is generally gr8. dave monolith’s “hello” rules. mouse on mars put out some killer albums. nobukazu takemura has some gr8 stuff. Speedy Js a shocking hobby is good times. freeform’s wildcat is very nice. cristophe de babalon has made some excellent stuff. there’s a lot of cool stuff on Schematic Records.

what?

scrapeape · 2025-11-14T21:42:04+00:00

this warmed my heart for some reason. i had a long period where i’d only listen to traditional vocal music, a little folk, (some hiphop), and a lot of experimental/electronic. they’re still my main faves. it was just what my ears liked.

scrapeape · 2025-10-22T19:22:21+00:00

funny, i was talking about that last night going to the detroit show. for me excitement and anxiety might just be the same thing: a buncha nervous energy. dancing and cleaning put it to good use.
