Nice idea of a thread, ain't it?
I've got one CRT standing in the corner gathering dust and taking up space. Its screen is whole lot of 17 inches.
Would like Vsnares to take it away for only 4 canadian dollars if he accidentally visits Kiev, Ukraine.

You just reminded me what an insane ball ache it was to transfer CRTs to gigs. :)
I got rid of my last CRT last year. It was a 22" inch job, that weighed a tonne. Had insanely high resolution (higher than 1080P) for how old it was. Considering when I bought it, 14" was the norm and 17" was considered large, this thing looked enormous.
If Aaron Funk wants it, it's probably been melted down and is now part of several other products as I took it to the recycling centre.

You must have been rich at those 14'' times to buy that monster.
Spam me a trackie from these gigs you've mentioned, would you.

aaron didn't play "live" in years. he's mixing his own tracks from 2 cdj players. sometimes he takes a laptop or a bit of additional gear but no crt monitors.

I know I could check if he performs myself, just decided to start a thread here instead.
I thought that CRT monitors are part of his style and will stay forever.

for some reason crt monitors were a essential part for the whole breakcore scene. to go even further i remember parties with 4-5 commodore 64s and a shared screen.
imho that's because most of the techno scene was playing from vinyls or drum machines and breakcore was mostly made on trackers.

Do you think that you managed to scare or in any way amaze xlt users by mentioning moist balls?
Moist balls can not end an xlt thread, especially in written form. Donate $10 to Phobs and vipe the thread with attached images of dismemberfest until the poor thread gets deleted, as well as your account!
Vsnares can still visit me in Kiev and take away my 17'' CRT. It is an LG.

i have one of the largest CRT's in europe from a CTX demo stand (new tech conference thing) needed a fork lift to get it on the lorry and take it to the farm. Kept it under 100 black bags cellotaped together until we could get a new barn to set it up. it uses 35000 wats when i have brightness at 75 percent.

33KG of Tech
Matvey, far from it: I lived in a terrible bit of town opposite a house full of junkies. I found a very good deal on an Iiyama one and I spent a huge proportion of my savings on it. I was doing multimedia at university the following year and had already decided it was a massive ballache scrolling the screen around with low resolution monitors. Plus, I wanted to be able to display whole fruityloops tracks on one screen without it scrolling as it played. :D
Here's that spam you ordered. Get it whilst it's lukewarm.
Absinthe Boys Afterparty material.
Only played out once at The Coaching House in Cardiff, IIRC.
This got rinsed a couple of times in various venues around Bristol and Bath.
this would have been the last gig I took a CRT to. That was 2006.

the real miracle is that it's a 120lb beast from 1979 and it still works.

I've got about 250 unfinished [e]NTRENCHED tracks, mostly from 2005-2008. I've only got about a dozen complete ones, but will try to get the best of them up.

Apology accepted; [e]NCHANTED is a great typo. :D I would agree, it's nothing like the hyperactive brostep contemporary nonsense that many people now call Dubstep. I made this back in 2006 and was trying to get that introspective meditative quality like early DMZ tracks had (I'm not comparing it to DMZ; it's not a patch on it, that's just the feel I was going for).
Trivia: Bhutan was also played out at gig in the woods near Bath. It was awesome being in a gazebo with the rain coming down, in the middle of the woods and the lighting being provided by lots of candle lanterns. Probably the most enjoyable gig I did. I think I had moved to laptop & LCD 2nd monitor by then though.
Whilst I'm on a spamming note, check out my "Monoid" thread, there's a real blast from the past in there.

I guess back in the day he used to bring a desktop but one show it got fucked up so he just played windows booting up and shutting down for a bit. It's cool to see him mix with 2 cdj's. Laptop at gigs are kind of boring to watch.

Take a CRT to throw on stage, for a hilariously dangerous "in joke" for any others of the Zilty massif who are there.
