im also nodding out on bupe lol, at least my pinhole eyes are white lol, today willl defo be iteresting to say the least
 
Ah, that could be a pain in the arse. I always find that public transport really brings on the nod with me the following morning. Nice, but it means I have to hammer the coffee in order to try and look inconspicuous.
 
Those eye drops are great, they allowed me to be stoned as fuck and look my evil manager in the eye during the dot com crash of about 2001. She'd already busted me for being stoned because I was avoiding her gaze, getting some of them allowed me to increase work smoking massively while appearing to have completely stopped. Take that.

I think they're quite bad for your eyes, though, there's something in the leaflet that comes with them about long term use, don't get too slap happy with them.
 
Don't certain brands of eyedrops contain scopolamine, or have I imagined that?

Note: Please don't go out and get a job lot of eyedrops in, Jungo. ;)
 
Optrex eye drops are good, but I prefer Murine. I find optrex sting my eyes a bit. Only problem is they don't sell them in Tesco like Optrex.
 
@ effie GOOD LUCK with your new job, I hope they're nice and easy on you

@ kate lots to say, I think I'll have to boil it down to the utterly ineloquent and superficial 'Macmillan nurses and family ftw, you are strong'

@ all and sundry including the above, much PLUR to your axes. I can finally see the end of this job I'm on and when it's all bagged up I'm spending a week smoking dope, roaming the streets and probably being a dick on here more often.
 
I'd say that's the cherry on the cake, but from my own experience of being left to my own devices for extended periods I know it tends to become the entire cake, or at least the lion's share of it.
 
If you do it into an itchy sock then it becomes much less pleasurable and hence less likely to become your principal daytime leisure activity. The chafing limits repetition, a bit like listening to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. Actually there's a link there. 23 23!
 
Yeah, I spotted the potential link and had to think of what would be more painful - the Chilli Peppers or chilli peppers.

23 Skidoo, and a couple of 93/93/93s for good measure.
 
Well I'm with Nick Cave on the former. Fuck what a waste of vinyl / magnetic tape / plastic / paper / time / socks / tattoo ink / long shorts / hair grease / heroin.

Bit more of me song done!! It sounds way too produced...I want a Selected Ambient Works quality to it which I'm sort of touching, but it's just too uniform. Does anyone have any experience with using Reason? I need to find some mental samples and blend them in and mangle the song about a bit. The stuff Aphex Twin comes out with is ungodly.
 
Get a free plugin called dbglitch, that's a good start. Actually I can't remember, does reason use VSTs? I used to use reason a LOT but got effed off with it, if I want hardware I'll use it. Well, actually I've got loads and I don't use it but that's for other reasons, like the 'music area' being knee deep in coats and beercans for some reason.
 
I like that Pete, nice work. Do you know what I think you should do? Sample a lot of household objects, flicked tin cans, shaken keys, jangly jewellery, I don't know what, and use those sounds to make some supportive beats. Maybe even as well as the beats you have already. Because at the moment although it's very bloody nice it's all cut from the same cloth sonically, if you see what I mean. To get a bit of glitch, spazz and brittleness in there to counterbalance the warmth and swishiness of it. Good work though.

edit: maybe some ring modulated gibberish? Because it produces sounds which are so at the other end of the spectrum to what's there atm.
 
Monsta knows a fair few things about this new-fangled computerised music production too.

Despite my total ignorance I was recruited by a recording engineer mate (because I was on acid, presumably) to mess about with a mix for a reggae / ska band he recorded. It was great fun watching all the action onscreen and hearing its effect on the music, but I took in absolutely nothing.

Industrial's not dead, eh? TG would be proud.

Nice suggestions. I haven't got a particularly good mic here (headset mic), but it may add to the sound. One I get back home I have access to a good quality mic too for recording whatever floats my way (literally - buzzing bees?).

What is ring modulated gibberish?

Ah of course monsta...EADD's producer-in-residence. I shoulda clocked.
 
All I can really tell you about ring modulation is that it came into being with digital FX in the 1980s and it's a good way of getting bell-like or strange metallic sounds. You know that awful repetitive beery fatboy slim funk soul brother tune? Well there's one moment of true creativity in that tune and it's after the predictable 1/2 speed breakdown, I think. There's this hideous eye-watering noise which sounds like a dalek sneezing, but stretched out to about 5 seconds. I'd bet my left nut that involves ring modulation.

Oh yes that 5 second period that starts in my ears and forces its way down my throat and into my stomach before reaching the spine and shooting up to the back of my head and brain.

I love that moment.

Thanks for all the advice! =D
