    Exams.

    I have no exams! But I do have the last thing (ever. EVER!!!) to hand in for uni on tuesday and my brain refuses to acknowledge it's still a fucking student. Hence I'm on here, for no reason I can make out.
  8. www.tourcal.co.uk Friend Craig made this, thought I'd see if anyone else likes it.

    Speech EQ?

    if you boost a (parametric for preference) eq to highlight ssibilant sounds then chuck it through the sidechain of a compressor it forms a de-esser. Filter out any low frequency nonsense. I sometimes boost around 600-1.2khz slightly. If there's popping sounds you could always do a cheeky bit of gain editing. Nearly all the interviews i've done in odd situations have involved a bit of cutting and pasting. Plus, you can mix up the sounds and make them say rude things!!! (assuming it's recorded already. If not, get the mic slightly off the line of fire)
  10. lightning bolt - crown of storms tomahawk - mayday made out of babies - gut shoveler system of a down - shimmy knut - bite the bullet botch - frequency ass bandit blood brothers - fucking greatest hits refused - summer holidays vs punk routine these arms are snakes - big news craw - space is the place iron monkey - house anxiety old man gloom - 'tis better to receive -skullstorm converge - you fail me ghengis tron - arms P.S:: Anyone in GLASGOW - I've finally got bored of moaning about shit noisy nights, and I'm starting one (probably called Dissonance) playing this kind of stuff either summer gradually or august to see how many other people wouldn't mind listening to this kind of music. More noise and banging electronic stuff, too.
  11. Even if you don't want to look on equipment as a limiting factor' date=' IT IS! Can you make your voice sound like a cello? Stretch 5 octaves? Sound like Britney (please?)? All I'm trying to say is that it's pushing these limitations and trancending the capabilities of the instrument that are creative. Machines are absolutely the same. The descisions you take on the instrument are defined [i']by the possibilities of that instrument
  12. That's the most touching sales pitch I've ever heard. I plan on a verandah and a shotgun. Then I'll go on an oap reign of terror against postmen and "damn yoots". Finally I'll forcibly ingest dynamite, take heroin on a massive scale for the first time, hire some hookers and cork it and be the first posthumous mass murderer when they cremate me.

  14. my favourite is... for every animal you DON'T eat, I'm going to eat three! (shamefully stolen from maddox.xmission.com)
  15. Monoday Forecast is the shit. In the pocket!
  16. I never play drunk. Playing on other substances is fine as long as I'm in the groove. Unfortunately, if something goes wrong, the whole thing's usually fucked. Which is why I keep that kind of malarkey to the bedroom.
