Benni froobs. Frenny boobs

Didn't get into Ben Klock last night cos it was full. Went to see Traxx do a 4 hour set instead and it was absolutely sick

Yeah Klock is good, but not worth the fact that every night he plays is sold out
immediately Traxx is a genius on the decks.

few good bits on the new kendrick album

dont get me wrong half of it is done in a strained ridiculous mocky voice like eminem or snl

and most of the funk soul bits are drenched in terribly tasteless choir sounding like a mongoloid goodie mob

the highly afrocentric spoken word bits are cringe central

but he does go in on a few tracks and it doesn't feel as wet and baity as good kid



the bubu track is super sick

Ben klock music and sets puts me to sleep

Hey that's a quality as well

'Soulful' house music has that effect on me.

[mason666]

just got my diablos out and im still as good as i used to be

gonna join a circus i think

[hubb]

take up singing?

[Muncey]

Won £640 on the footie yesterday off £5. Winner winner chicken dinner.

lol

[hubb]

maybe people could lick the blow hole when they do this ?

[CreamLord]

What's the risk for psychosis though?

[hubb]

only risk i can see is the dolphin could experience a bit of stockholm syndrome afterwards maybe

I learned to do decent sidechaining

I thought you couldn't tweak the sidechain in garageband, so for ages I've had to manage without, cus the default setting sounded like crap, but you can adjust attack etc so now my kicks/subs sound banging

[AxeD]

How do you mean tweak the SC? Can't you just send the signal you want as a
trigger to the SC input of a compressor? You can put any effect on any bus really.

I never even booted Garageband though. Is it a full DAW nowadays?

I dunno but I feel like I can get what I want with it, except proper audio manipulation like slowing down/reversing/tape stop effect, which I do in audacity

[cyclopian]

post up some of your garageband beats; really curious to hear

[hubb]

side chaining is sick and very detail orientated work if you end up really getting a feel for it. it's not just this huge dynamic force in principle.

instead of using one element from the song to duck another element, try using different stuff as the carrier (or ghost) signal

[+] Spoiler

ghost chaining basicly

you can do all sorts of unique dynamic shaping this way

Like if a kick looks like this: IIIIIIIIIIIIII
and then put through for example an lfo.. it could look like this: Ii1LIi1Lli1L
and then you can sort of imagine how the comp would have to react to that shape, yet it still contains the same frequencies - so it's not, entirely, a new 'reaction' but more a variation..which means you get two to work with if you use one with and one without lfo as the carrier

it's pretty delicate

in a sense it's like you take an 'invisible' or 'conceptual' shape and put that through the unit specific shaping that goes on with attack and release setting algorithms in a compressor

I usually do this on all reverbs or delays sent to a bus
marking it up 'manually' so to speak ..

[RKM]

i just about worked out how to sidechain the bass to my drum rack the other day, need to work out how to get it on the kick alone tbh

on topic,

[hubb]

with relation to kicks in bpms above 130 or so (which historically rock goes to sometimes and therefore part of a compressors design)

it's probably a good idea to deal with it manually, like having the bass bounced to wav and then doing a simple quick manual volume (or mute) fade where the kicks go

because a compressor isn't fast enough or trustworthy enough to get properly in sync in time with the next kick
