The traktor logo totally looks like... (aka the EMD social thread)

I think we should throw together a bluelight party somewhere in africa and do a bunch of illegal drugs.

Do they have good drugs in Africa?

I think we should have an EMD party in the Netherlands. Or California - you guys always seem to have loads of good pills!!!

I think Netherlands or New York would be the best place for BL/EMD party, just due to logistical considerations. California can be really expensive to fly to from Europe, NY isn't as bad though. :)

Yeah it would be really cool, if everyone could meet up. I think it would be a pretty sick party. :)
 
Good thing we all know Thizzer.

I have never met the elusive bugger (as Damien described him!) But online I do know him indeed... yes tea and crumpets or w/e that jazz is... AT THIZZERS!

LOL, hes gonna wake up from his haze of bassnectar goodness and be like.... wtf? "Party at my house .... I am not aware of this!"

its cool he smokes a lot... I will just tell him he told us it was cool months ago ;)

<3 ya thizz you know this maneeeee. (ok you can tell who just got his benzos lol, time to hit the bar w/ my pops and watch the packers SMASH the Redskins.....)


mmmm chicken wings.... cops bad, chicken good.... right?
 
I'm really tempted to see Richie Hawtin at the Warehouse Project in Manchester this Friday. I don't have a ticket, and it's 'sold out', so I'd be relying on buying one off a tout outside the venue (which should be pretty easy). But then there's so many things that annoy me about the Warehouse Project, not least the police sniffer dog at the entrance, which they make everyone walk past on the way in :(
 
^ You could take the drugs before you go in. That would solve the problem. Even if the dog smelled it, they wouldn't be able to find anything on you.

Anyways, in Ableton, there is a sampler (called Impulse, I think) that lets you load multiple samples at once, and then gives you a kind of piano roll where you can arrange them into loops. The difference is that each key is a different sample, instead of the same sample at a different pitch, which is what you have in the regular piano roll. Does anyone know if there is anything like that bundled with FL Studio? Or maybe a free (or cheap) VST that can do the same thing?

Edit: Figured it out. FPC is the thing that does that. It has a piano roll built into it.

It bugs the shit out of me when DJ's do not give two shits about who they are playing before or after in terms of their track selection. I mean yes, sometimes this is the promoter/venues fault for scheduling weirdly (house to DNB to house again? wtf? that was about a month ago) but seriously, i am sick of hearing djs just crossfade because they cant be bothered to search for a song that will work with the one already playing, and leaving the next dj with something totally weird. I had to mix out a of a 100bpm track last saturday when i got on, and i was almost fucked...the first 10 min or so were complete shit because i was pulling shit out of my ass to try and get the bpm down to 72, so i could double up. had to keep pushing the tempo, and it just sounded terrible

grr

Its nice to have a track in those cases like some sort of weird ambient promo intro or a bit of classical music that's epic and then just work on killing whatever the DJ put on before, massive delay fade out or something. Personally I loved turntables for this so u could just turn off the 1200 and let the track die. And then come in with a thumping kick or a your promo intro.

Also that's why you never roll without your production crew mates. Its always better when you know the djs before u and after. I was looking at a vid Marco carola and Richie hawtin and it was the complete opposite. They were technically spinning together and then hawtin just walks off.
 
well i knew the fucker, but when i checked in with him before i went on, like 15 minutes before, i was like "where you at" and he says "about 120" and im like cool, cause i got a decent amount of shit in the 125 range that i could pitch down, then he just fucks with me....no idea why


my goddamn party too
 
There's a new Plastikman track out!!!


Plastikman - Slinky


I can't decide whether I like it or not. Need a few more listens, I think.

So anyway.............do I go and see Richie Hawtin this Friday night?
 
Man I wish it were easier to get Instrumentals :(

I want the instrumental version of the Menta remix of Random by Lady Sov and it's unfindable :(
I know it's out there too!!!!


and MDMAhead if you dont see Hawtin you deserve to be commited.
(and |>R()|)!G/-\|_ im beyond envious of you)

He's not playing as Plastikman. He's just doing a DJ set (and it will probably just be a 2-hour DJ set at that :( )

Also, he's playing at an event called the 'Warehouse Project'. See here for everything that annoys me about the Warehouse Project.

For starters, if I do go, I'll have to walk past a police sniffer dog whilst carrying a gram of MDMA crystal (although seeing as this is the UK, it probably wont actually be MDMA). But still..........
 
Cali is flooded with about EVERYTHING it seems. Its also still about who you know... but still!

Plus we have Tijuana on our southern border- Biggest open air drug market, whore house, ect... and it doesn't matter who you know- just don't get shot or abducted.

On second thought, I think Thizzer's house is the safer bet.

Sniffer dogs, good lord, reminds me of the movie Children of Men

i'd see Hawtin, he's a living legend. Saw Derrick May spin in 99'-2000 in San francisco. Was hoping he would drop one of his older tracks but he was ok- so, so. I was sober though and he didn't hit the tables until 4:00 am. Always had a soft spot for detroit minimalist techno.
