  1. My sister bought a MacBook Air from @strid3r, she’s extremely happy with it. I bought a MacBook Air, myself. This one: https://www.microcenter.com/product/507657/macbook-air-md711ll-b-116-laptop-computer-pre-owned---silver I’m pretty happy with it, but I’m not running Cubase or DJ software on it. I’d definitely look for 16G on a mini or MBP or some such if you’re going to go back to a 2014 model.
  2. Watching it too. I readed the original comics many moons ago. Am happy they didn’t tone it down (yet, on episode 2).
  3. Yeah, condolences, but glad your day was nice.
  4. Happy birthday, Antonio! (party favour noise)
  5. Oh, okay! I used to work at 800 K street. My favourite was Absolute Noodle. That’s where I got that expensive but delicious make your own noodle bowl piled high with veggies.
  6. Looks good, where at?
  7. Hitcher scared the carp out of me. My other favourite was, Flesh + Blood, although it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it, so it may not have aged well. Did anyone see Hobo with a Shotgun? I did, in the theater, even.
  8. Someone be trolling... https://apple.news/AS3w6Rlo6QLiaFR8evuNW8g
  9. Elder, Gold & Silver Sessions
  10. He even got the optimal headphone haircut.
  11. One of my favourite sets as well.
  12. The Good Place Laughs aplenty
  13. Two bands I saw last night: Holy Fawn dirges prettily -- listen to the first couple of seconds, if that doesn't hook you in, then it's not for you -- "Loud Heavy Pretty Noises" is pretty spot on -- imagine a more metally Sigur Ros. https://holyfawn.bandcamp.com/ Vasudeva are pretty much what I said, whimsical mathrock: https://vasudeva.bandcamp.com/
  14. Saw Covet last night, they were awesome. Hot and sweaty sold out crowd, not so much, but I finally got to see Yvette Young live (and I even got to say, "hi", although not much more), and hearing this organic music live is so different from watching YouTube videos. Openers Holy Fawn (video below, sort of Sigur Ros, with the occasional Cradle of Filth "witchy poo" metal scream) and Vasudeva (whimsical math rock) were the perfect openers. I have a couple minutes of footage of sweaty backs while Covet is playing on my phone, so here's this instead:
  15. One of my most listened to albums of all time. Neo-classical
  16. Yes, of course I started listening to it because of the cover. It's actually more progressive than stoner, I don't think I could listen to this at work -- it would take up too much of my brain. But I do like it quite much. Lots of changes and unorthodox chord progressions.
  17. Egad.
  18. What are you listening to? I'm streaming it from the BandCamp page, and it's not particularly bad. It's a bit bright, but...Yamaha NS10 bright, not brickwall distortion bright. And yes, fatiguing, but not the worst I've heard (the worst I've heard is The Cross' Justice). I even ran it through Audacity (using SoundFlower) to analyze it, and it doesn't look particularly heinous:
  19. I ordered two CDs. I like this kind of trio's (piano, bass and drum). Not as good as my E.S.T but very pleasant. GoGo Penguin? Yeah, they're pretty great. I really dig GoGo Penguin, this is the kind of music I tend to make. It sounds like jazz, but it's not really improvised. Everyone compares them to Esbjörn Svensson Trio, I should probably listen to them. Me, now: probably the standout from the above four collections of "heavy psych" -- to me, this is more Krautrock/the sounds of friends just sitting around jamming melodically: https://heavypsychsoundsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/mother-engine-hangar
