Sorry for bumping this, but I am just wondering:

The only thing I want to do is launch ableton clips while lsdj is running and launch lsdj while ableton clips are running.

Is it possible? And what do I need? I was searching the forum but could not find an answer. This seemed the appropriate thread.

And yes, I know, human syncing is possible, but syncing ableton and lsdj live by ear is a bitch.

We once played this clash of the bands contest, and for reasons beyond sheer rationality we won. This dude from another band marched to the jury, seeminly agitated, and starts ranting "how two drunk guys that just push buttons on child's toys and drink beer could win from bands with real musicians".

Oh wait, that was the best compliment we ever got.

If MTV starts showing chiptune videos and we can actual make a living off of it... will we still call it legit?

No we'll say chiptune has sold out and move on to other niche-y music.

But seriously I fear for the day when chiptune becomes fully "mainstream."


Why fear the day when chiptune becomes mainstream?

Often we're recognized: "hey! You're those drunk retards that push buttons!"

oeps... Done!

As a listener I do not really care, or it has to be something special, like the cheap dinosaurs plant, or the infinity shred 4 vinyl album.

As a musician I love to release physical stuf. Unfortunately, it costs money plus no one really seems to buy stuff anymore at shows. We're still stuck with +200 copies of Clarence, our first ep, because we had to order 600 cds (that was their minimum).

I think we made around 2000 dollar last year. Our cocaine habit made it last for 8 days.

Oh fuck, I just saw all the brackets. How the hell should I choose between An0va and Danimal Cannon??
