Ooo. I love his stuff with Move D. By far my favorite of the Namlook stuff.

I meant that I enjoying listening more than creating when I'm high. Input more than output. But that sometimes it inspires me. I don't think it can be trusted, though. That's my major problem with it. I can't trust it simply because it makes almost anything sound better than it would normally. And part of the passivity of it is that it makes me lazy, which is the very last thing you need to be when trying to get something accomplished. I'm trying to finish a joint tonight, actually, the last of my stash, so that I can be ambitious this weekend. If I have some around, I WILL smoke it. I have to finish the last track of my EP soon, and I SUCK at finishing things once I start them, therefore MJ and I have to break up for a while. That sort of thing. But I agree with you that it's a nice reward and can be inspiring in a destabilizing way.

Really cool tunes. Thanks!

Sounds about right to me. Personally, I find that alcohol lubricates the writing process. I tend to be fairly tightly wound inside, and it helps to loosen up when writing. But not too much, because then I lose attention to detail. MJ can help sometimes, but for me that drug is more passive than active. Nicotine is essential, and I think it helps me solve problems. Brain stimulator. I can't imagine any other drug while writing.

True, and it's cool-looking with all the dots and stuff everywhere.

I'm xenocidal.

You're welcome!

When you post it's one of the icon selections at the bottom of the screen, but you have to insert it as an image. At least that's how I've done it.

I really enjoy Le Saboteur's style and will definitely purchase these new tracks. Thanks!

Yeah, that's weird. You can't even really blame it on Engrish either, which makes it doubly weird. :unsure:

Coolest intro/outro evarrgh.

Yup. Cubase has lots of little bugs similar to that. Wouldn't surprise me. Use the Force.

Yeah, repeating and duplicating, at least in C4, by default will copy the part being duplicated so that it starts immediately at the end of the original MIDI or audio segment, not at the next bar or beat. So it could be, as Mylo says, that your segments do not accord with exact bars. Seems that snap actually has little to do with the issue until you're dragging and placing the newly duplicated segment(s).

Interchill's Floatation and Infinessence, and Ultimae's Fahrenheit Project 3. Bluetech, for sure. HAB's album, maPOd. CBL's stuff is great too, and their second album has grown on me significantly. Sounds from the Ground. Insejn introduced me to Krusseldorf's work, which I think is really good. Oh, and the Mere Mortals album, Universal Code, is great.

Maybe you have your snap set to too fine an increment?

Are you sure you're not copying and pasting? I have a similar problem when I copy and paste. It never lines up and I have to drag the data to the right place, at which point snap seldomly works and I have to manually type the correct location. When I repeat or duplicate it works fine, just as long as the segments are exact increments according to bars (4, 8, 16, etc.). I'm using C4 (legally purchased). I think of it as a moody girlfriend.

I agree. It's more mature than the first one, more nuanced, yet still dark, hard and very engaging.

I only have the second one, and I like it. +1 on the TFTDF recommendation.

I've only played a few times, but my first time was at a masquerade house party of friends of a friend. I made the bad mistake of planning my set out beforehand, which consisted mainly of electro and IDM that I thought would be cool for a masquerade, but I therefore wasn't able to play to the crowd, and there were lapses in dancefloor activity. But there was about an hour in the night where I was filling in for another DJ, playing entirely to the crowd, which was much more successful. I remember Shpongle's Dorset Perception being a hit, along with some Ott. It sure attracted the girls to be DJing, and I got distracted because they were asking so many questions.

See if you can track down Colorbox and Bypass Unit tracks from the same time period.

A handsome machine!

What a great way to put it! I totally agree. I suppose it's one thing to know how to produce well, but it's another entirely to know how to do so with style.

Well, she just exhibits some really odd behavior sometimes, and spontaneously. Like crashing for no apparent reason, or she doesn't like a plug-in. But she's definitely a sophisticated lady, so I don't mind so much.
