wow thats alot! but while its boring it does give you time to browse the internet or whatever.

Tomorrow is even more fun; 930-1030, 11-12, 1130-1230 (not sure how that's going to work out), then 3-30.

Standard, half my time is spent of conf calls these days. At least I can generally dick about when I'm on then, maybe have some music in my other ear whilst I'm half listening etc.

You never have any physical meetings in the telecoms business?

Yeah, but generally only if it's all people in my UK office. Like the 930 call today is across the entire EMEA region, so they'll be at least 10 countries representing.

Besides, more physical meetings would render parts of the telecoms business redundant

yeah I would imagine

also you don't have to look interested while being on the phone as opposed to being there in person.

Ok, finished the DnB track (or at least the track that's at 170bpm and isn't 4/4) last night, and started & finished a slower 100bpm hip hop themed tune as well. No idea where it came from, just started something new and BAM had a track.

so glad DSF isn't blocked at work - it's what keeps the day going. spend all day making money and learning about production/having a bit of banter and can go home and produce!

I'm bumping this thread, was lost in the multitude of pages! What else can I do in the office! Hah

I wish I wasn`t in the office

I Have Djinn Aug 2011 Dubsludge mix playing though, great stuff

Tell me about it bro...

Haha nice one, the speakers I have in the office... to be fair I would rather not listen to bass driven music

Wish I had speakers in the office... not a banking thing I guess. But for once I've remembered to bring my headphones! so I have a whole day of listening to tunes ahead of me

Haha, I work for a company that designs/builds large poultry houses for farmers. Oh the joy

Wish I had some headphones man, even some ipod in-ear buds would be better than these shitty speakers! I swear they are serious old. The original PC they were with in the office was running windows 95, so I'm afraid to ask exactly how old they are haha!

I`m using in-ear phones at work.
the only way to listen to bass in public

HD25s mate!

Makes you look stupid but it sounds good.

I could never wear phones like that in public, I won't even wear them in the house around my lady haha... Can't be messing with the hair bro! Wonder how much a real good set of in-ears would cost...

Really? I don't give a fuck - actually it's real nice as you can use them as earwarmers during the winter as well

I'm sure you could get some decent in ears for like £50

Yeah man I'm FAR too self conscious. I'd always be worrying people were looking at me. Ah sweet man, shall do some research

Electric_Head · Post by **Electric_Head** » Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:22 am

get yourself some sen CX300II or similar
Very good quality for the price.
I`ve actually been using mine for production until I can cop a new set of monitor phones this month

I've tried fucking about with some beats here at "the office" but I've come to find I only work well on my own PC xD
