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.
