  1. Watched the 2016 remake of the Jungle Book yesterday and was pleasantly surprised. It's probably not as young kid friendly as the animated one but older kids might enjoy it. Stand outs for me were Bill Murray as Balloo and Christopher Walken as King Louie. 8/10
  2. Yeah, I can be at peace with something that is legitimately hard to find.
  3. I can't bring myself to download music or movies illegally. Sad times.
  4. I know it's proportional but you have to have fuckloads of plays before Spotify even look at paying you, then they pay your record label sweet FA, which kind of leaves a percentage of sweet FA for the artist. That's how it works for me. So please, but my shit (preferably direct from the label) over streaming on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer or whatever. Having said that, I'm just happy if you go and listen to my shit at all
  5. hmmmm, I guess, fuck knows, I can't be arsed getting an app I won't use except for this though.
  6. Well, you've got two for Facebook so far...
  7. Looks like that offer ended last Friday
  8. I had the exact same thought whilst opening a can of tuna today. I think it's the twin connection thing.
  9. I could be available semi-regularly as well.
  10. Yeah, what happened to the tattoo photos.
  11. I felt the same about the Saw films.
  12. I was chased up a tree by a Badger once, they are a lot bigger than you expect, a lot more bitey and infinitely more grumpy than you can imagine.
  13. I have no idea what that means so I'll just assume you got broken in by a burly fisherman after your eyes met across a pint of Belhaven.
  14. 1. Adelaide 2. Bellagio 3. Brussels 4. Paris 5. Aberdeen
  15. I'm pretty sure TV license is £12 odd. I watch plenty of stuff on BBC so don't have a problem paying for it.
  16. If it's something you're getting paid for it might be worth trying to get him to re-do his vocals with the methods above (at least the diagonal facing to the mic and a pop shield), it might save the hassle later and it'll sound better. If not, yes, you can minimise the issue with a de-esser but that can cause other issues with the vocals as well if you're not able to get rid of it with very minimal usage.
  17. Recording it properly in the first place Seriously though, if you're listening back to a vocal take and it's heavy on the sibilants I'd make sure you're micing the vocalist correctly and with a pop shield and maybe a reflection set-up as well. Changing Mic types as well can make a massive difference as some channel sound completely differently and can amplify negative elements of vocals.
  18. A de-esser should always be an absolute last resort.
  19. Top 5 Games (in no particular order): Secret of Monkey Island Final Fantasy 7 Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters The Last of Us Metal Gear Solid
  20. Are you on the not so good half?
  21. EP should be released by Binary Trax in the next few weeks, I'll update when I get a date and where it can be downloaded from. Until then here's a preview of one of the other songs: https://soundcloud.com/binary-school-trax/preview-ladywantsaudio-hunter_hunted-from-ghostwood-ep-binary-trax0022016
  22. Most sampled drums are compressed already so be careful with that process.
  23. I'd just keep tugging furiously and look them dead in the eye while they were watching. They'd know I knew, but I'd finish dammit. And then I'd Spider-Man that mother Hubbard.
  24. Dumps like a truck, truck, truck
