Does anyone have any good stories of being too honest? I mean, to the point of causing trouble.

I told someone I didn't like them and they were upset by it.

edit: I don't think that counts as "good", oops.

The 250 song pack seems fairly illegal, then!

You cant +1 because ∞ is infinity, what could possibly be bigger than that? XD

No way!

Now you can also listen to it here if you are (understandably) thinking it's probably not worth downloading:

Thanks! smile

I don't know where these songs came from but I wish they would go back there


01 - Unlikely Fetish
02 - And Then He Said Something And Everyone Was Shocked
03 - Alfred Isn't Home Right Now
04 - Skateboarding Is Cool
05 - Pygmy Goats
06 - GOBLINS
07 - Pokemon Photo
08 - Duck Tails
09 - I Met A Pretty Girl But She Was A Dubstep Fan


Bits and bobs 2. I feel like these songs are fairly honest to myself and paint a nice picture of my life. They aren't as strong as the songs and ideas from my first (self-titled) album, but they are all worth something in their own way, to me at least.

I hope you enjoy them.

The only languages I know are Batch, Sql, C++, HTML, and Hex... Is MML worth the learning?

Hexadecimal isn't a language! big_smile MML is kinda quite neat because you can use it to make cool music and takes about as long as HTML to learn (less than one day for sure) so why not? smile

You should all do this at your gigs:

I don't think anyone should go out of their way to entertain anyone but themselves with their music, entertaining other people at your own expense is for pantomime artists and other sorts of "entertainers" (think Robbie Williams wink ). If you are playing a concert or whatever you should just hope that there are a lot of people in attendance who are entertained by similar things to yourself (and if you love to make danceable gameboy songs and live in New York city, you know there will be smile ). On the other hand I never really saw any of these "fuck the audience" posts (and have seen a few posts with people asking how to make their live acts more entertaining, actually) so I have no clue where this thread came from.

Although I never attended one myself (so why am I posting? big_smile ), from speaking to people and reading about people's gig experiences (as audience members) I really think that the chip scene does a great job of entertaining audiences and helping them have a good time.

I think you'll find it hard to see a thread on here or 8bc.org that says "I went to this gig and it was crap and no one played songs I like" as a general consensus, and I assume if people really thought "fuck the audience" there would be a lot more threads like that.

Flash is on it's way out thanks to apple. I do think HTML5 is the next big standard. If you just want to make a small game flash will be the way to go unless you plan on using it for the next few years

But if im not mistaken html5 has a free open programming environment so no need to pay for dev tools and such.

I'm not so sure about HTML5 replacing Flash for games. For example, no game with an online high-scores chart will work if everyone who plays the game can view and edit the source code with a couple of clicks!

Also, HTML5 is supposedly not going to be completely ready until 2022, so I think Flash has quite a bit of life left in it. And there's already a few open source Flash players about, so maybe by the deep dark post-apocalyptic future of 2022 there will be a Flash player written in HTML5! wink
