emsk, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:16 (nineteen years ago)

I hope you are bringing my curry making pot and not Thing!

Masonic Boom, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:16 (nineteen years ago)

Adrian Mole's thing?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:29 (nineteen years ago)


How about this for the new shimura curves look?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:37 (nineteen years ago)

Nice sword!

Forest Pines, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:41 (nineteen years ago)

Which one of the Shimura Curves gets to brandish the sword on stage?

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:42 (nineteen years ago)

We *are* talking about the one in the picture, right?

Forest Pines, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:43 (nineteen years ago)

Yes

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:45 (nineteen years ago)

I'm not sure, myself. Whichever of them has the most hands free.

Forest Pines, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:52 (nineteen years ago)

Kate has a guitar though. Unless she gets a Hands Free Sword Kit..

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 17:54 (nineteen years ago)

Errrrrrr....

Maybe not. We prefer not to look like questing hobbits.

Masonic Boom, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 20:39 (nineteen years ago)

You could get FP onstage to brandish his chopper.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 20:43 (nineteen years ago)

Uuuhhh.... NO!

Masonic Boom, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 20:50 (nineteen years ago)

Have you actually *listened* to them, Kerr?

I mean, I know you like D00M and all, but that is just... SILLY!!!

Masonic Boom, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 20:51 (nineteen years ago)

Totem are really good. (they feature an ilxor btw). I have the demo if anyone cares.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 20:53 (nineteen years ago)

Kerr, I worry about you some times.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:33 (nineteen years ago)

My chopper is not going anywhere near a stage!

Forest Pines, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:34 (nineteen years ago)

Kate, what don't you like about Totem?

FP > I was talking about your old bicycle.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:53 (nineteen years ago)

I had a vanilla waffle. Yuck.

nathalie, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:54 (nineteen years ago)

Waffles, mmmmm. I just bought strawberries. (I hope they are polytunnel not flown in from somewhere faraway.) They would go nicely with waffles.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:54 (nineteen years ago)

Hey kids! I am back from my holidays! Have just recieved the dreaded "STOP USING THE INTERNETS SO FUCKING MUCH" email at work. Busted!

Kate, I didn't get much chance to do anything other than listen to/think about things für Das Spangle Maker between time issues and my own incompetence, but I will definitely get some time to put something together over the weekend.

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 09:59 (nineteen years ago)

Welcome back, TISSP! Was beginning to wonder what had happend to you!

Also, could you officially confirm or cancel the ILX Festival? Just let us know either way, as you are the last band that hasn't been in touch!

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:02 (nineteen years ago)

Ah right, sorry! We are confirmed. Officially.

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:02 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah right, Kerr, I know how often you talk about my arse pic

Forest Pines, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:03 (nineteen years ago)

Welcome back Tissp. Hello all. Woke up sore.

G00blar, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:04 (nineteen years ago)

Why so sore?

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:05 (nineteen years ago)

Too much wanking. ;-)

nathalie, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:06 (nineteen years ago)

Haha no.

It's my neck, I think from sleeping half the night on my stomach, but with my head still on a pillow.

G00blar, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:09 (nineteen years ago)

Aaah the neck! Sucking off DIY stylee ey? ;-)

nathalie, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:10 (nineteen years ago)

Nath!

G00blar, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:11 (nineteen years ago)

What? It's not my mistake you're sore! ;-)

nathalie, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:12 (nineteen years ago)

Good lord, watch those hormones, girl! Pregnancy is making you go all sex-loopy!

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:12 (nineteen years ago)

I feel at least partially responsible for this

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:13 (nineteen years ago)

Nah, it's alright. Besides, I can never reach.

G00blar, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:14 (nineteen years ago)

either yr totally responsible for Nathalie's pregnancy or yr not at all, tissp.

Grandpont Genie, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:15 (nineteen years ago)

hahaha

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:16 (nineteen years ago)

(nervous laughter)

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:18 (nineteen years ago)

I am simply tired. But not hungover, as I resisted Ed's attempts at bedrunking me with crazy Belgian beer.

Poor Emsk arrived halfway through the mixing, when Ed and I were in the Mix Trance and urgently debating the appropriate uses of compression. I've never EVER mixed with compression before, but it did rather save a popping bass track.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:27 (nineteen years ago)

You've NEVER EVER mixed with compression? Srsly?

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:28 (nineteen years ago)

My father was UTTERLY AGAINST Compression as the instrument of the devil. I kind of agree with him. I've never used it.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:30 (nineteen years ago)

How odd!

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:30 (nineteen years ago)

No, there's whole threads on ILM about how evil Compression is. I'm not alone in my thoughts.

Tiny judicious use of it is OK in the mastering process, but never blanket compression when mixing. Bad bad bad! If you want the song to be louder, that is what that big knob on your stereo is for. You don't want to lose the dynamics of a song.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:32 (nineteen years ago)

Compression on vocals tho.

G00blar, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:35 (nineteen years ago)

No no no, I am completely against over compression of records, but you're talking about mastering compression. Insert compression is useful and nearly essential on individual instruments to level out the individual dynamics to an appropriate level--most obviously, vocals.

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:36 (nineteen years ago)

Compression on vocals - NEVER!!! Step delay on vocals. You never fuck with vocals.

Compression on bass, that I'm willing to conscience, because you boominess and depth without crazy volume increase.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:37 (nineteen years ago)

("what g00blar said" xpost)

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:37 (nineteen years ago)

Sick Mouthy's yer man for the anti-compression rants

Tom D., Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:37 (nineteen years ago)

I would always slighlty compress vocals to even them out, but I guess it would come down to how good yr singer is!

tissp, Wednesday, 28 March 2007 10:38 (nineteen years ago)

If you need compression on vocals, either you need a new microphone, or you need to learn better breath support to get a more even sound. A properly trained singer doesn't *need* compression. That's just ugh ugh wrong, feh!
