i was actually never into the noise music, aside from
respecting it as a pure concept. like, sure, i respect the
idea of it, but i can't listen to this crap.

i'm off listening to beatles, beach boys, clannad,
rockapella, black eyed peas, kula shaker, and afx

that's cos we r kule

i like ambient noise like tim hecker the most, i've
drifted off to sleep to that album so often i know it inside
out. honourable mention for "noisier" noise go to
fenn o'berg and xinlisupreme who are both great

i ordered gescom minidisc off amazon and i was all stoked

then it arrived and it was a cd version

releasing gescom minidisc as a CD is the closest thing to a
scandal the autechre universe has ever scene

minidisc also had a peculiar sound to it too, kinda bass
heavy, tho bviously the freq response was supposed to be
flat.

it's 96kbps i think, but they did it in a far different way
than mp3.

I heard that 'a number of' the analords were mastered off of
MD too, which is weird enough to believe

i was off, it's actually 292.

but, still valid point -- there's a lot of ways to use that
292kb/s bandwidth. i remember using LAMEenc on the command
like and it'd be all "applying psychoacoustic filter" --
essentially, "i am now throwing out all the frequencies most
ears probably won't notice to save space."

we're so used to mp3. we can hear it against FLAC. AAC has a
similar sort of attitude... but, yeah, ATRAC is a bit off on
its own, frequency-wise.

according to my ears, anyways

i remember i visited a high school buddy at his college when
i was off in some other college two or three hours away. he
and some buddies had rented an apartment with lots of
bedrooms. there was one giant one, and most of it was just
sort of the music area. they'd pooled all their gear there,
and when i visited, i brought my own. korg ms2000, modded
paia fatman, mpc1000. one time, i borrowed my mixer. the
other, i had my absurdly modified behringer.

i forget which one of those times it was when we all
consumed mushrooms, and went to the gorge. it was at the
bottom of the cityscape, sort of like a train. there were
sharp rocks and grim imagery. there was some fat, disheveled
old lady sitting on a stool, painting a picture of the
gorge. various sketchy people milling around. i saw
discarded paint cans on the ground, and realized people had
been getting high off of them, and it was really depressing
to me. i had this vision of a swirling vortex of energy, and
a proposed relationship with it, sort of akin to the plot of
the black hole (1979). i could hitch a ride on this intense
vortex of energy, but i had to mind not to get too close.
the paint cans on the ground were, in that state, quite
haunting.

then, i look over, and there's this series of rocks in
between bits of waterfall, and my buddy's roommate is
climbing up the rocks, in between the waterfalls. cheered me
back up...

but, then a classmate of theirs, iain, showed up. iain had
tourettes, and it was actually kind of unnerving. in
addition, he totally didn't understand we were on mushrooms.
he promptly slices his hand open on some rocks, and i decide
we need to leave. literally round everyone up; march us up,
out of that fucking gorge. then we record this

*like a drain, but, well, given my feelings for da train,
i'd almost let it stand as valid

and, my point was, it was recorded to minidisc.

(almost forgot)

i actually think i spent the whole time on that using a
novation k-station, which i've mentioned here before. i'd
been using it as a plugin for two or three years, and here
was a hardware version of it, and it did things the plugin
didn't do on top of that! if you listen around 38m that's me
on a novation k-station.

joining in for pads and noise sweeps was jamison on a jx-89.


for spastic percussion, my best friend from high school
on... well, i forget the model number, but it was the line
where the mt-100 just had a graphic equalizer, his had,
like, an envelope follower. stock, on top of casiotone
beats. he also might have had a distortion pedal

the guitarist, known as "frodo" notably gave up playing
guitar for much of the recording in favor of manipulating
the dodgy connector on his guitar's jack to make clicks and
pops at appropriate moments.

there are some other thinigs in the background that didn't
get a solid connection to the mixer. you can never get it
all down, i suppose
