Evil Hard Drive
 

rob fragilenine from aus on 2001-07-13 10:11 [#00014789]



Greetings, everybody. I'm back from my nightmare hard drive
crash. My D: drive (the one with my 130 tracked songs on it)
crashed the other day, rendering my PC useless. I had to
take it out, and now I'm 130 songs shorter. Anyway, this
should be a reminder to back up your music, as I'm hell
pissed off about this! I was about to back it all up too...
As a result, I'm going to start a project soon where I use
as little and cheap equipment as possible. This includes:
1x Cheap electric guitar
1x Distortion pedal
1x Effects unit
2x Cheap Casio keyboards
1x Alesis HR-16 drum machine
1x 4-track tape recorder
1x Cheap microphone

I plan to use this equipment to record some of the most
hardcore industrial shit ever, like a mixture of Nine Inch
Nails and Mudvayne, only heavier. Sound good? I've already
played some of this stuff live by myself and it sounds
good!

Everyone who received .XM files from me (in e-mail or
whatever), can you please hold on to them? If you can, send
them to plegz@yahoo.com.au. I will appreciate it!

Bad news

Maybe this is a sign not to use too much technology

Did you loose that track you were going to send to me.

No, it's still kicking around on my hard drive, luckily I
converted it to MP3 and put it on my E: drive. I shall put
it up on a site soon so everyone can download it!

My equipment's shit as well, 1 knackered old sampler, 2
fucked drum machines, a taped-up keyboard with half the keys
missing, a microphone from 1975 and a digital 8-track (which
is actually pretty cool). I love shit equipment though, it
makes you push yourself more and not just rely on pre-set
swanky sounds.

Old equipment looks better also.

"Retro Style"

The crowd are intrigued to see nice sounds coming from
strange old equipment.

This week I plan to make many new sounds using special
effects. Who wants some sample cds ?

I think we should start swaping sounds. I like giving people
new sounds.

I wanna make an instrument out of fruit, I remember when I
was young i experimented at school and found that electric
currents can pass through apples.

Chimp : Do you have an e-mail as I have some plans for a
"wasp-based" insrument to show you.



 

Chimp Systems from Flat Mountain on 2001-07-13 10:57 [#00014815]



Wasp-based? I am intrigued.... You truely are a mad
scientist.

My e-mail iiss..

joeseviltwin@yahoo.co.uk

I once made a tune out of smacking two spoons against a bit
of cardboard. But a wasp would be a new thing.

Oh fack. . .

For some reason the IT department at work have decided to
block access to Yahoo mail....

Wizard, you'll have to send your insectrument plans to :

joeseviltwin@hotmail.com

Sorry about that.

me and my brother trapped a wasp in a champagne glass and
then stuffed a mic inside, i then hooked it up to my sampler
and effects unit and it sounds amazing, even better
when the parametric lows were boosted up, 500 watts of
buzzing madness whoomph

Does anyone remember the old 1991 hardcore tune 'The Bee' by
The Scientist? It had a fucking horrible buzzing bee noise
at the start that went right you and made your teeth grind.
Bzzzzz it went.
