The Purafied 5420 is a dual-engine harmonic tone machine delivering real analog energy. You don’t want another plugin that “warms things up.” You want the feeling. The lift. The glue that makes a mix ...

One of the fun parts of middle age that nobody tells you about is that every morning you wake up and a different part of your back hurts. So it’s a fun little surprise!
You can make a game of guessing where it will hurt tomorrow!

I just got unreasonably angry at a commercial for eggs.
A smiling grandmother is showing her apple faced grandchildren how to scramble eggs.
BUT! In the next scene, they’re eating fried eggs.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SCRAMBLED EGGS?!?
I hope someone got fired for that blunder.

I just had a positively revelatory vegetarian mapo dofu. Good hit of Sichuan peppercorn, nicely rich and saucy.

Because of the people running the companies and the methods used to develop modern artificial intelligence, I think humanity will eventually be driven extinct by being excessively annoyed to death by our AI overlords.

I first got really into Underworld 30+ years ago, dancing my brains out to “Cowgirl” at the campus club.
Every time they’ve played in the states, I’ve had to miss them because of various obligations etc.
I FINALLY rectified that this past weekend, flying to Denver to catch them.
100% Worth it.

With the 50th annivesay of the loss if the ship being today, this past weekend I got kind of obsessed with trying to cover the haunting Lightfootballad as a synth dance track; make it a club banger without making it cheesy or disrespectful.

Thank you to everyone who reached out about Winston. It means a lot.
He’d have loved it that hundreds of people he’d never met just told him he’s a good and handsome boy. He’d put on his silly cat grin and cheerfully headbutt each and every one of you.
He had a small cat brain, but a giant heart.

Call a theoretical physicist; something weird happens to time when you get a leg cramp in the middle of the night. It stretches out for hours localized to my calf but only seconds pass elsewhere. It’s a twin paradox that makes me walk funny in the morning.

For an industry ostensibly controlled by a cabal of radical leftists, Big Media rolls over under right wing pressure pretty damn easily.

I think I spend too much time thinking about electronic music. I got a spam about "Bargains" and got interested because I had misread it as "Berghain."

Walked into the club last night and “Ebeneezer Goode” was blasting from the speakers.
I looked at the door person and said “you don’t need to card me, I’m old enough. I know all the words to this one.”

Love how certain folks are all “you can’t say bad things about the president and then distance yourself when political violence happens” after nearly 2 decades of “Obama/Hillary/Biden are secret Muslim communist Nazis child abusers who want to destroy this country.”

Back in the 90’s, Gen X could turn to REM’s “Everybody Hurts” to cope with emotional and romantic disappointments.
Now we turn to that same song to cope with joint and lower back pain.

I gave the demo of "Faster Master" a go this weekend. Uh, yeah, my job as a mastering engineer is still pretty safe.
It's got some interesting features but by default it WAY overprocesses things. It also did a middling job of suggesting presets, tho I did throw it some genre curveballs.
