Fugees were a bit cheeky with that one but it was all resolved amicably in the end. I remember hearing it watching some American cop show, criminal minds i think, while a family is being burning alive by a man in their house. It worked. I then saw about three episodes of criminal minds in the next few months and they were really good so I started watching and I never really saw a good episode again. Ah well. |

i grew up listening to celtic music, clannad -- and enya was part of clannad before she was enya. it's hard to fathom her making that much money out of that start |

thats the exact reason why i bought an original d50. first step to my own irish castle |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i looked up her castle on wikipedia and apparently she got a panic room put in and had to use in 2005 after someone busted in and tied up her maid seems like being that rich and famous is a bit of a pain in the arse. |

Since the 1980s, Enya has attracted the attention of several stalkers. In 1996, an Italian man who was seen in Dublin wearing a photograph of Enya around his neck stabbed himself outside her parents' pub after being ejected from the premises.[115] In May 2005, Enya applied to spend roughly £250,000 on security improvements, covering gaps in the castle's outer wall and installing bollards and iron railings.[112] Despite these improvements, in October 2005, two people broke into her home; one attacked and tied up one of her maids and left with several of Enya's items after she had raised the alarm in her safe room.[116] |

i was thinking about having a listening bar, like those in japan. but im too lazy for bar work. its fucking heavy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also, why a bar? i want to get away from people, not be surrounded by drunk idiots. thats just the exact opposite |

i actually haven't seen that film. watching alien covenant right now =) |

where clannad and enya got their start, a pub in the middle of nowhere. it's all come full circle |

also, why a bar? i want to get away from people, not be surrounded by drunk idiots. thats just the exact opposite there's a world of difference between a pub and a dive bar... but if you dislike drunk people, i do suppose neither would suit your fancy |

when i was still in my late teens and just getting into music and circuit bending, i thought, i know what i need: - a moderate house surrounded by trees, minimal neighbor presence but still ten minutes away from a grocery store. feeling of privacy at home but still easy access to civilization - a workshop, nothing fancy, circuit building stuff mostly, just enough workspace and maybe a drill press - a studio for music, office for computer stuff - enough income to buy something like a new synth once or twice a year - complete ownership of my time the last part is the most important |

and? did you have that? |

i was pretty close, from like 2010-14. but then my whole life collapsed and i'm only just getting back out of debt both a blessing and a curse knowing that i could be happy the rest of my life just working on my projects, following my nose... but, financially, i have to sink most of my time/energy into work just to pay off for the last stretch of that. the idea of buying a house just blows my brain up even still, but maybe in a few years. then some renewable income like write a book or something that keeps generating without me putting in hours. i dunno, i haven't given up, there's just a lot to deal with in the here and now meanwhile, ; she loves the juno 60 |

i remember what you wrote in the coronavirus thread my worst time was from 2013 to 2017. i left a girl after a 3 year relationship and wasn't satisfied with anything i did and my situation in general. i lived in a big wg in berlin which was like a crazy fucked up hotel. also the city was just sucking off all my energy and i had a hard time finding space to breathe. i got exhausted just taking public transport. i think i don't have a very good filter built in, its just everything always at 100%. at one point i started using earplugs outside… maybe it was a burnout, i don't know. i just lost all my mojo and my satisfaction for most things. everything became a drag and i said fuck it and i had about a year where i didnt really do much besides worrying and having a bad shit every morning lately, i just finished paying off all my dept. it wasn't a huge amount, but im glad i don't have to think about that anymore. i just bought my last modules for my modular rack and im only missing a midi merger and a multi effect for my mixer (anyone uses a Lexicon LXP-5???), then ill stop buying stuff i don't have any savings, i don't collect benefits for my retirement or have a plan for more than 3 years, but im glad im here and im having fun again. and i try to prepare myself for the next downswing yup, its a poopyduhhh-everyone-nows-that but what i learned, from my experience(s) in nerves and flesh is that life is an up and down. when i was down, some friends had their up. now im fine and they are fucked. i just know that life can get better. and sometimes you can just wait and wade through it. of course money helps a lot. so keeping a job that is ok is already half the work |

the juno 60 is friggin awesome. my friend has one. quite expensive these days if i would start now i would save money for this one |

i had some mfb stuff back in the day, and it was barely a step above a pre-assembled hobby project. like, it worked fine, but the buttons, interface were complete shit. i sold off the mfb-502 reasonably quickly, but i did get midi2cv mileage out of a step64 for quite a bit longer in the sense of pure spirit, what i miss most is having an sh101. practically, though, i should get an mpc1000 with jjos again, or figure out something equivalent then the prophet vs was also very special |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are right, mfb is not the best quality. before the volcas and behringers they were the cheap synth guys. i couldnt get a tanzbär make a beat, without the manual in a shop. the interface is pretty bad. and the first delay module i got from them was missing a button. how in the hell can that get through inspection? but that synth sounds friggin awesome |

I want to help more. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
and who do you want to help? family? people in general? |
||||||||

he simply wants to help the concept of 'more' |

i sold my sh101 and other stuff (tr606,…) in around 2010 to get enough money to move to canada. was definitely worth it. i bought this stuff when it was moderately priced and i would never buy an overpriced vintage synth today |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in general, you're right. most of it is overpriced, now. but, i dunno, once you spend a few hundred hours with a particular synth, it starts to feel almost like a pet. in that regard, the SH-101 and the Prophet VS were the most personal to me, and i could see myself paying handsomely to have either back, in the eventuality that i can afford it again, because i miss them quite much. had i not that history, however, i would have no desire to acquire them for $$$, and that's how it is for most everything else. newer cherries like the microfreak seem much more bang/buck unless it's personal |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and, yeah, i bought the SH-101 for $600 in 2009, sold it for $900 in 2014ish. i imagine it's over a grand, now. the prophet vs probably hasn't sailed as much in price, but i wager it's probably a bit under 3x what an SH-101 would cost |

Anyone. In my neighbourhood I chat every day with the older, lonelier people. I always take the time. That’s an example amongst a few. Basically I don’t mean financially because I simply can’t. But by being a kinder person and giving my time to people I feel it’s a start. There a people around me who need a bit of human warmth and companionship and for me it’s a place to start. |
