I have a suite of samples I use to fill space. My favorite is Matt berry impersonating Christopher lee making a porn. English humour is tops.

Re: Help with essay on tech affecting composing speeds? (3 replies, posted in General Discussion)
from my experience using that kind of technology has greatly increased my usage of aleatory or accidental elements in composition via a destructive/random cut and paste techniques. i can use the tech to quickly come up with musical sequences i would never think of otherwise.

Re: Chip in pop? (25 replies, posted in General Discussion)
i think the more interesting question with this is the reverse-pop's influence on chip music. especially thinking back to the limitations of ugh..game soundtracks. regardless of the application-knowing that you had only a set amount of memory in which to compose/play a handful of themes that would loop endlessly, the composers choices carry a challenge similar to composing in say fugue style, which has a long list of rules/limitations. i wonder how much of that music was memorable because of its elegant construction and how much was just beat into my brain.

Seems like an every-other-month thing might generate interest for people in the 3-4 hour drive range too. (?)
Nashville is getting a "hip" rep lately too, so it neeeedz moar chip.

this is really well done, its fun to try figure who contributed what, two unique styles that blend in the best way. the break downs and bass lines do a great job of utilizing sounds unique to the equipment. any chance you two gonna tour this together?

Re: How did you learn music? (58 replies, posted in General Discussion)
took a couple years lessons on the electric bass, after that-it was self taught for various keys, wind instruments and string things, via playing with lots and lots of people for hours and hours. i really really recommend learning an instrument from someone. self exploration is great but having someone to hold you accountable for lessons/progress can take you places and answers questions you may have much easier than trying to reinvent the wheel on your own. the key is to balance your own voice with those musical "rules/tools" that everyone uses.
