Tumblr? Bumblr!
Fucking nonsense. Spend half an hour typing a new entry only to have the fucking thing crash my browser. I swear, I honestly do not fucking know how I manage not to goddam kill someone every fucking day... Aaaaargh!!! Anyway I’ll break what was a very long single post into two or three smaller ones and hope it doesn’t fucking shit itself again. Fucking goddamit.
Stargazer. Super neato weirdo freak-out drone machine. One of 50? Or was it 100? Either way I’m super stoked to have one. I’m playing in an ambient event Sunday the 17th in Nara Prefecture. My plan is to interrupt the calm, dreamy, ethereal, gossamer nighty-night blankets of comforting sound with good sudden blasts of dissonance and distortion. Last ambient event I went to, half the place was sleeping, the other half had their arms crossed and eyes closed. I get zoning out to music, but somehow I feel like I dunno, maybe because people are going through the trouble of you know, playing it fucking live for you, you should at least stay the fuck awake. Or is it ok to sleep through live ambient shows? I have no fucking clue honestly. Anyway, a good sharp poke to the ear, and let’s see if I get skipped over when they ask people to come play at their next event, hehehe.
I dove headfirst into SMD soldering a few weeks ago. Nerve-racking! Goddam my hands fucking shake! Components small as sesame seeds! Aaaargh! But in the end it was a success and aside from one LED soldered in wrong (assumed both LEDs were to be soldered the same way, but nope) there were no problems. It’s an 8bit Mixtape Neo in case you were wondering. Neat as hell, and it’ll get used in the ambient show for sure.
Of all the gear I’ve owned and sold, the Virus TI was one that I really really really fucking regretted. It’s made by the same group of wackos that run Waldorf (according to a few good sources) so it has similarities to the Blofeld and the Q and the Microwave. But it also does other neat things. The effects are SO fucking good too! Best pads of any synth I’ve ever owned or used. SOOOO fucking Deep Space. Ambient show here we go.
That’s it for part one.
