  1. Well done xgjsx a worthy winner indeed !
  2. Our singer has had the idea of putting the logo jpeg on a memory stick , with a lot of the modern TVs that seem to be stuck on the wall behind most stages , he thought it might plug and play , yet to try it mind
  3. I've voted over there as well
  4. [quote name='alittlebitrobot' timestamp='1503953471' post='3361845'] ...or, at least, I hope one can improve.. [/quote] Which one ?
  5. Fantastic Dad , I really love your reviews, but more importantly, absolutely chuffed to bits that you are up to the job of doing them ......... .......even if you did use the word 'horrendous' about mine .......top review, I proper LOL'd.
  6. [quote name='adamg67' timestamp='1503875002' post='3361313'] If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. [/quote] Bravo
  7. I think that the vote button on mine might have an intermittent glitch , maybe that's why there are a few votes short
  8. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1503616389' post='3359787'] Well it looks like two people to me..! [/quote] It looks more like ET than a camel , maybe we've all missed the correct interpretation of this one
  9. Cheers guys , I shall try and get there
  10. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1503597615' post='3359587'] (G[i]asp..! ) [/i]I've just noticed that there are [i]two [/i]people on that camel..! Will I have to re-write my whole month's work..? Darn these old eyes..! [/quote] I think you'll find that it is not actually two persons , it is merely an oddly loaded camel , the dude has to deliver it to a local address I believe !!
  11. Fringe virgin alert I see the gig is free , how does that work ? I realise I don't have to pay any coin for it but I've seen other gigs for free , will this mean I have to queue for an hour and a half to get into them. HID and lurksalittle have s long list of shows that they want to go to , and some we have already booked , but some of the comedy stuff I am up for fall into the 'free' category , TIGHTARSE I hear you cry , but no, I would rather buy a ticket than queue all day !!
  12. Loads of people dress up as pirates , wave pirate flags and have pirates parties , there used to be a thing called dress up as a pirate day. Pirates weren't very nice , they were murderous barbarian thieves as I recall , but they have gone , the flag is seen as a humorous artifact , and when used on hats and fancy dress it matters not. But the confederate flag is still a symbol of racists, it is current, it is not historical , it reminds us of history mainly by its ongoing use as a racist banner . Les is on the money and saw this coming , fair play
  13. I guessed it wasn't as simple as it looked I did clock the address, it's all part of the show dude
  14. Great Vid Chris , how long did that take to put together ?
  15. Ours went off on a cowbell solo in the middle of Dakota ,soooo funny we damn near wetting ourselves
  16. [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1503339982' post='3357414'] Don't forget to take your cowbell too ! [/quote] . The bands drummer has got the collective cowbell , and takes great pride in throwing random sequences through a different number each gig , though it had got a bit tired of late , it used to crack us all up
  17. Ive had a good listen through now , top work so far , though I think mine is a bit quiet , but that is probably in the listeners favour
  18. [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1503253244' post='3356726'] Maybe I'm just a bit afraid of the learning curve on my new DAW? I'm sure Blue Oyster Cult would have some sage advice on the matter... [/quote] Oh No , there goes Tokyo , go go Godzilla ? seems a touch random to me TBH I'll get my coat
  19. Ok then, for my sins I am in, there is a schpeil and the lyrics on the soundcloud , and when I get my new credit card through I will pay the subs on there , it seems only fair https://soundcloud.com/lurksalot/es-a-giza-master enjoy
  20. [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1502876875' post='3354063'][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=3]a lone traveller crossing the scene on his camel..! Doha..![/size][/font][/color] [/quote] quality , I missed that one
  21. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1502873261' post='3354013'] ..., but a lone traveller crossing the scene on his camel..! D'oh..! [/quote] Good try Dad, but I think you'll find that actually, he's a Giza who has a specific part to play in the scene, and my story will tell exactly what he is doing there, granted your heads will drop as you realise this involves a vocal , however, to add some cheese , they are properly lurksalotesque in both content and delivery. still trying to get Lurksalittle to add some tone to the BV's , but she is a touch wary of compromising any prospective university applications by association with my work , bummer!
  22. [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1502576349' post='3352324'] Wanna borrow my Doom array? [/quote] An array of overly Cheesy Doom , now that certainly sounds ominous
  23. [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1502569714' post='3352283'] I went for what I think is quite an appropriate feel to match this month's pic. [/quote] I normally try and do 'appropriate' but I think I will be way wide of that mark this time , mine is taking shape but , well just ....but , even I think the lyrics are a bit cheesy on this one
  24. [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1501813017' post='3347528'] Here's mine, too, equally inspired by the beast's progression ... [url="https://soundcloud.com/dad3353/inexorable-what-goes-up-must-come-down"]Inexorable (What goes up must come down...) ...[/url] Something of a tone poem, really, or atmospheric piece, rather than EDM. I was looking to create a sense of both the immediate and yet the eternal; the ephemera and the timeless. A touch of human in an insentient landscape, an incongruous passage past the immobile monuments. There's a couple of 'jokes' in there, too, in both the form (a pyramid waveform...) and the repeated rising and falling of both the 'melody' and the key. Incidentally, the scale used is not authentic Egyptian, despite its familiarity; it's really the Hungarian scale, which better serves my purposes, being symmetrical (the twelve semi-tones are spaced 1-3-1-2-1-3-1...), as is a pyramid..! Kontakt 'World Percussion' for the darbukas (playing in 7/4 and 4/4 time...), a Ruby acoustic bass, Kontakt Pearl piano, a snatch of Desert Song and some home-generated samples of oud snippets, all sanded down with some slightly complex desert winds, made up of three instances of the Wind module by Xoxos (Sounds Of Nature...). Thanks for listening, if you already have; if you're about to, enjoy. [/quote] It is always my policy not to listen to other entries till mine is done , I'll have to try not to read them now as well as I had exactly the same idea as that ,word for word Yeah , right
  25. [quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1501918124' post='3348155'] I often seem to be able to write music that put's people to sleep. I don't know if that's a good thing or not! [/quote] What, hello , did I miss something
