Thanks, I usually put my favorites of the bunch toward the front and I quite like the 1st one of jan24from50-spd4 (some of those sounded better in different speeds so I made 2 speed sets).
That's a great remix. There's something called "granular synthesis" where you program sound to be sliced into tiny slices which are then easier to manipulate. Supposedly melodyne used it but it seems fourier transform stuff (which uses freakin imaginary numbers like the mandelbrot set) would be needed for 'change pitch without changing tempo' type stuff. But your glitchy beats are granular synthesis ish (probably a great technique for beats, maybe fourier better for melodies). I still just use modplug tracker so I dont really have micro manipulation ability, but can fake it with weird techniques to generate complexity. Fucking around with the wav file format in a programming language is what I started to do (I like coding it all myself if possible rather than using other peoples software), but so far I'm playing xbox instead of braving the horrors of c++. You can start with a sine wav and things called "overtones" can be added to make something sound like a piano vs a violin etc, and I'm pretty sure if you generate these yourself, you can 'undo' them easily by subtracting whatever u already know you added without fourier math nightmare (maybe the math can be copy pasted, but it can't be freakin understood..) Its hard to make any remix just from a single wav where all parts are smushed together. A wav file has a rediculous number of "samples" (just an integer representing volume basically), so you can edit micro-micro-scale stuff... if you can make a program that doesnt topple over while trying to control all that data/complexity. After making so many melodies, I at least thing I have a slight grasp on the 'rules' to automate them.

fin?
that's It?! I've really enjoyed what you've posted mane. It's all great. I'm going to offer one milquetoast, fairly benign, yet unsolicited criticism. I wouldn't change a note of any of these jams, but I do wish you'd use some different fundamental sound sources on occasion. A "lush" pad here and there. I know for a fact you're capable of rhythm work as well and I'd love to hear a bit of that incorporated too-- at least once in awhile. I don't know what you have access to with your modplug thingy, but mixing up the sound palate would add a bit of variety and reduce a bit of sonic fatigue after listening to a few of these. I wouldn't cry yourself to sleep over this note tho. Overall I give your music a hard "A."
I tried to find a snog you made in like 2004. It was called like 4 rooms 4 walls or something. It was at least inspired by Otto Von Sirach and may have sampled a bit of it, but the melody was this asian thing that was all you. WHERE IS IT? I can't fuckin find it. I know I had this track.
Instead I found a remix you made (2008) of one of my tracks. norfzorf_-_yo (remix of thats what). Haven't listened to this thing in *at least*10 years but it's bangin.
As far as granular synthesis, I didn't use any (that's a high rate beat repeat/shuffle on the kicks and a lower one on the snares. pretty bush league but does for a quick mix). I've got this vst tho with my Komplete package. You've inspired me to dick around with it a bit on my next project.
Lastly, I think you might enjoy my woke hamburgler.

Thanks, modplug in terms of simplicity is almost like notepad, the lame but usable sounds are like "piano 3" and "violin". The snogs are in the form of rough doodles I suppose. In modplug tracker they would just loop forever when you press f7 instead of terminating. The max rows in modplug (per pattern) is 1024, which is partly why they're all short with no "chorus verse whatever" type stuff usually, plus I'd rather doodle a next snog than beef up the previous one for now. I could probably copy paste the note data of a snog into a program I make to make the sound itself more interesting, but I've yet to make this program and am more motivated to play xbox now. Its possible a lot of my very old snogs are just unobtainably gone, I might have some on that technology called "cd"s if I'm motivated sort through them. Stuff like that & whatever pathetic belongings were taking up room in half of the minivan I was forced to live in. That norfzorf link seems to be zero seconds long/failupload.
woke hamburgler is fitting on great eye or whatever (brown eye). Its hard to believe that woke culture exists, I guess the average human is triggly puff by now. It's a memetic virus, but all humanity is. currently. is hosts to scams like government and viruses (real ones like woke, not fake ones like covid.. covid is real in the sense that its a memetic virus too). This game "the gardner and the wild vines" has "he/him" type pronouns under each character. the term 'non binary" is a good example of the stupidity, but these people have been smothered by a weaponized school system. I mean "woke" is probably MORE intelligent than whatever the school curriculum is now.
I still havent posted all the august snogs.
