Basically what the title said. I've used noise kicks and snares on some tracks, and now they sound all wussy, and not all super manly like they originally were. Is there anyway I can restore the rugged manliness of my top kicks?

Instrument for kicks is

Env: A8
Output LR
Length UNLIM
Shape FF

Automate OFF

Table

TSP/CMD CMD
FFCFF CFF
FECFF CFF
FFCFF CFF

(then a K command later on)

If there's a future webshow happening, I'd be down like Charlie Brown, y'all. Especially if it's in GMT-realistic timeframes!

I'd do a Fatal Four-Way vinyl split, but the songs have to be about pro-wrestling, and the artwork is a faux-Pay Per View event poster. WHO'S IN?

Check out this guy, not realising anyone who regularly reads anything on the Gawker network is a complete and utter tosser.

good to hear you guys are pushing out some more music, looking forward to it!

but while you're here, may i make a suggestion to tone down the heavy-handed exclamations, asterisks, shouting, tired memephrases, bluster and general noise?  i'm sorry but every time i read anything promoted by you, good lord, it's like i want to dive headfirst into a wall of nails.  i can't be the only one who feels this way.

it's a shame because the compilations are otherwise pretty good (it's shocking how many people were involved) and deserve more attention, but that potential is sabotaged by the immature presentation in my opinion.

i'm not saying to rid your language of the passion that you clearly have (which is great) but as a favour to the general public, try cutting down on the gimmicky brotalk at least a LITTLE bit, come on!

Don't say that, last time someone had the gall to give them constructive criticism, they got absolutely slated on facebook.

(inb4 they class this as 'hating' and start saying 'H8RZ GON H8 LEL!!111')

I listened to this on 9/11 - it seemed apt.

My only concern is the breakdowns aren't even close to being brutal enough, plus there weren't enough breakdowns.

Plus the kick drums need to be so brutal they kick me in the face. LITERALLY
