I havent heard this yet, im looking forward to it tho, i have heard some very aggressive opinions about it! I absolutely loved ghetto pop life, one of the biggest hip-hop albums for me in recent times...i have a bit of a soft spot for dangermouse, although dangerdoom didnt take me the same way. Inte...

I do definately rate that attitude, and think its important to keep releasing on vinyl, but at the same time i can see it might just not be feasible to get everything out on vinyl, and bringing out cds is a good way to let people get the music without the same overheads as vinyl presses. And i think...

Im sure there are still going to be venues where we'll be able to blaze, some clubs will just turn a blind eye same way as they do to blatant drug use now i reckon, it'll just be about knowing the right spots. I hope

Re: the amp, it was cutting a few times (presumably to protect itself) but then there were sparks and a strong smell of solder. Do you think thats the fuses?

Ok quite a major update...i was switching between left and right speaker to compare the sound, and as i switched to the speaker that sounded funny my amp had a minor attack, sparks flew and now its broken, it wont turn on at all

Can anyone tell me how serious this is likely to be?

:(

The cones are made of kevlar i believe. On close inspection it seems like its one in particular which is responding unusually...it sounds like the mids to mid-highs have been eq'd out... they have a lil 25mm tweeter then two 6.5cm kevlar cones, one seems to deal with low end, so it seems likely that...

FAO: Anyone with an understanding of speakers/amps

Ive had a bit of a mishap with my setup. I have a set of Wharfedale Diamond Series 8.4+ speakers, with a Marantz PM6010OSE amp. We had a party, and someone turned it up too loud while i wasnt paying attention, and it seems that there has been some damage done. When i play music at a reasonably low v...

If it was pushed right (or wrong, depending how you feel!) i reckon Ready to Learn could easily break, its got a very accessible sound in my opinion (thats not a cuss in case anyone thinks it is! i rate it) I dont know about the irony, I need to listen to the tune properly. Virus Syndicate have alwa...

"Mancunian grime/dubstep specialistss Virus Syndicate's second single for Planet Mu is a sonic treat, with its halting, cakewalking old school edits and soul girl vocals cranked up to Minnie Mouse speed. In kicks the rap and you're initially dismayed at a generally mysogynistic lyric about the ...

i'd like to add this: surely hype by its very nature is just that, 'hype'. can something be over hyped when hype itself comes out of subjective opinion? these questions seem to allude to some sort of objective 'truth'. your questions only seem to invite subjective opinions about subjective opinions...

Still not 100%, but get a subtractor going, get a sine (the smooth wave) and a square wave dropped down an octave or two, some low pass filter and away you go, just fiddling and tweaking til you get the sound you're after. Theres a lot lot more before it sounds as proper as i imagine you want it to ...
