Happy birthday Peter!

Thanks everyone! I had a quiet day, capped off with supper at my parents' place. Might jump in the hot tub in a bit. I wrote this tune yesterday and the footage of me dancing in tights while it plays is my birthday gift to all of you.

Holy moly! Let me know if you ever need a house-sitter.

A friend and I did a little synth and dance collaboration. All sounds coming out of the Synthstrom Deluge.

@VPI Maybe some heavy-handed EQ of the treble and upper mids?

Hap birth!

It's been awhile, for sure. I've got some recording to do soon, so I'll get back to it.

I got a new thing and I'm in love. It's a Digitone Keys by Elektron.

Another rough-ass demo of a song I plan to record properly soon.

Happy birthday! I bought you one of these, I hope Amazon doesn't screw up the delivery.

Happy birthday, Dan!

Have a metal birthday, Colin!

“I have never killed a man, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.” I wonder what my friend meant by this when she posted it on her FB timeline.

This sucks. I guess with such a crowded market, they had a hard time selling enough mid-fi units to the mobile masses, and their higher-end units just don't generate enough sales to keep the company viable. I'm not a headphone hobbyist, I wouldn't even call myself much of an audiophile, but I use my HD600 all the time for listening and for musician stuff. It strikes the perfect balance between comfort, good neutral sound, and low enough cost that I don't worry about babying it to keep its resale value in my chaotic studio. I hope they keep making them.

Not really snow related, but here's my forecast. The kids had two days of school this week.

I don't know much about interfaces, but the 2i2 seems to be highly regarded by home studio-type people. I believe the 4i4 has midi i/o, for not a lot more money.

Come and get it oh wait we built the wall and you can't.

Home-grown, grass-fed, on-farm butchered, bag-aged (one month), pan-fried striploin. This is one of the best steak experiences I've had.

I'm just here for the nude photos.

I never listened to them much and I'm catching up now. Fuck. What a loss, and he was younger than me.

I really like the way the Circuit's sequencer is laid out, and having an 8-track sample-based drum machine with that sequencer is going to be fun as heck. And if it's cheaper than Roland's TR-8s, even better.
