1 - i'd just make some new snares

2 - i read somewhere that v commands take up a lot of cpu. have you tried changing the tempo to 110 and the groove to 3/3? you might have to play with the instruments a bit as you are changing the amout of ticks but it might be worth a try.

3 - which part of the psycho music are you trying to emulate? are you using arps? you could try programming some volume changes in the volume collumn in a table and spread the chords accross the 2 pulse channels.

4 - try halfing the tempo of the song and changing the groove to 3/3?

DJ Rupture mix CDs

fuck yeah, and which ones? ive been more into "low income tomorrowland" lately, but ive also got "58:46 radio mix", "gold teeth thief" & that mutamassik split "the bidoun sessions", plus some radio sets i found online...

havent heard low income tomorrowland or 58:46 radio mix. i recently brought some of his more recent mixes - Solar Life Raft and Uproot, they have a bit more of a dubstep feel about them but dont let that put you off

its easy enough making pretty floaty sounds on a game boy, people probably just are not trying hard enough, put the tempo right down low and have crazy long groove settings and fuck all that fast game boy shit filling in every single last space with some crappy random note, play with volume envelopes in tables, the wav channel at slow tempos can sound great.

You could always fuck the fucking game boy right off and use a c64 which has filters so can make very nice pretty floaty sounds.

Edit: Anyone seen Stalker (1979)? Any good? (I liked the original Solaris.)

the russian film? its ok, it starts off well but quickly turns in to a series of monologues, so its very slow.

the book Roadside Picnic is very nice though

Isn't this a problem in any form of art?

I'm sure that it is 10 times worse in dubstep communities or somewhere like Deviantart.

People seem to be entitled to share every single moment of their lives on the internet, art is no different.
