old projects lingering on hard drives. becoming compost for the soil from which new musical ideas grow.

only heard a couple of these, thanks for the heads up, i know what i'm listening to in the next few days!

it's kind of sad it took a controversy to get people talking about santa ragione tho. i haven't played all their games but all the ones i did have been really solid and i hardly ever see anyone talk about them…

a guy from the company demoed it to me a year or so ago at an event and he knew what he was doing cuz his demo targeted literally every point of frustration i have with ableton live that is fixed/better in bitwig, from midi to audio handling, the way audio routing is handled, etc.

i'm an ableton person mostly out of habit, though i do like the workflow a lot. i feel like bitwig has it beat on nearly every front though, i haven't made the switch yet but i'm feeling the pull more and more, especially the way they integrated modulation and having complete control on cpu threads

my fave diskunion, love the building and the way it's laid out. grabbed some crazy deals there.

i have to know, sanwa or seimitsu?

reading this reminded me of my brief "atheists are so the coolest people" period in highschool and looking at richard dawkins/sam harris stuff. so glad it never really got past the point of mild interest when i see any of what these people are up to nowadays

it was hell to find bc i guess nobody owns physical media now so all the good options from the big players (ikea, habitat who don't even exist anymore at all) are far gone now, so they aren't amazing but they're better than nothing

i've switched to bookshelves from this company/distributor/importer(?) called tectake who have this simple one labeled for dvds, the spacing between rows is kinda wonky but i'm using one for the cd collection and another for the games collection that i both got 2nd hand and they work well

oh hey thanks a lot, i'm happy that you dig the music

¥160 a bottle pocari sweat i could fuckn cry right now

lately been using this powerbook g4 on which i've installed an ssd and os9 to replay riven. it's strangely meditative to put cds in a drive to access parts of a game, and not having access to the internet on a computer. you are compelled to try things instead of going on sns to numb your brain

oh huh interesting, curious how that works in reality… i didn't hear any stereo weirdness so i'm assuming it didn't activate for me.
