||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|

|
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|

Write a letter to hexagon sun and ask nicely. They'll post you a CD with flacs of Acid Memories, Hooper Bay and the 'Boclite' and 'childV01ce' VSTs. |

|
|
30 minutes left and i send it to my uncle who will press me a vinyl. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
... Does Hexagon Sun have an address? |
||||||||
|

I achieved the Holy Grail of IDM (ie sounding like watered down BOC) by making use of the excellent and free vst synth , set to DeepPwm and then detuned a bit, and added a bit of overdrive. I sound like Big now. Tired of your anime / abstract 3d / deviantart desktop wallpaper? Have a (1024 x 768 only at the moment). |
||||||||

Yep, it's on the music70 site. They may or may not send you the afformentioned flacs and ficitonal Vsts, nor can they, "guarantee an immediate reply, but you will receive something eventually." |

. I like how the ape is not at all grinning. gives the whole project a hint of sadness, underneath all the happy choonz runs a melancholy current. |

Poor Linking, Alex. |

To be frank, I expected better from someone with the tenacity to display a picture of the legendary Dick Van Dyke as their visual representation on this board. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
cool, cheers! |
||||||||
|
|

Grinning Ape continues apace, unabated, with the foetid, sepulchral ambience that is . Or hoot, is that Top of the Pops beamed live from inside Windscale? Yes, it's Grinning Ape performing |

sunken square is great didnt like any of the others though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I cannot help but notice the pessimism in tracks such as sunken square since you have pointed this out. |

British Home Stores is great in a 'breakbeat in movies' or 'commercial rave' for sky channel selection screens sort of way. I don't like the volume twiddling in places, but the acid line in there is lovely as are the drums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the drumloop for "british home stores" is very popular, i used it in a remix once : |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That tracks rather good in a dirty way, I like the "uh-huhs" I think you make better use of that drumloop than me, but then did you take advantage of turning all the nobs up to 11 like me, no, no you diidn't. Thanks to Ceri JC who, so far, has been Grinning Ape's most avid supporter having listened to all of the tracks, and bestowed encouragement and words of wisdom, what a gent! |

Is your location, '5 go mad in dorset' based on the comic book parody of the famous five books that featured in the classic humorous comic 'Oink'? . Obara: The lead that sounds like a TS404 in that track is great. Nice work. Good use of reverb too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I figured it was from The Comic Strip Presents series of TV show from the early 80s. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You're both right, though Marlowe is corrector, it is from Enid Blyton parody "Five go mad in Dorset". Last week I took delivery of the frankly astonishing and am currently enjoying the highs and lows of the core players of the 80s alternative comedy scene, now today's popular mainstays. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Does it have the one featuring 'Al Pacino' and is about coal mining or something? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah, The STrike I think it is - I remember that one quite well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually mind over shatner is quite a nice little number. put some pads under it and you've got a boc short track. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's great. Punk-IDM yay |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha, no i didn't ! :) "having listened to all of the tracks" - not only Ceri : plus yann_g and me for example. and i think Tolst is secretly writing a review about " a new post-idm revelation". it's something fresh for sure. so far ! Ceri : thanks. i spent some time on that track indeed. |
||||||||

Punktronica. Oh shit, I just googled it and people seem to be using that term already. God no. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
we'll have to think up a new genre name, Poree. to the drawingboards! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
electronicore intelligent dance punk rawlectronica there must be thousands we can have 1 genre per track, absolute class! |
||||||||

Interesting stuffs. Maybe I would like to remix it sometimes? |
||||||||
|
|

i'm going to poland next monday |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think a proper name would be 'what?core'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
intelligent dance punk = IDP, i like it ! great ! which town ? part of the country ? drop in for a beer ! |

what?core - manifesto I was thinking about it all, wiv my brain and stuff, and I thought what is at all about? Is it all just japes, or is something at the core of the what?core? I think it's born from those articles in Future Music or something that tell you the formula to make Hard House, or How to Sound Lo-Fi, or 8 essential plugins to create MHTRTC again. It's all so ghastly and anti-music. And so many tracks one finds on the net sound so polite, or as if the artist is making tracks that "could be on an album", designed to be signed, there's more than a whiff of desperation. This is my idea, as an amatuer MP3-bound non-musician music-maker. To make tracks that don't sound as if they could be on a proper release. If effects levels go up to ten, or even eleven, then to use them to their full potential. Because why else do they go up to ten (or eleven), it's such a waste to just add a touch of distortion. To aim to have at least 0.5 seconds of greatness in each track, something that has the kernel of greatness or suggests something not hitherto done to death in musics, as most tracks don't even have any, any redeeming features or ambitions of greatness apart from appearing on a Wire Magazine CD giveaway. To be sexy and make both men and ladies dance. |

excellent. yes, this is excellent. |
||||||||
|

good stuff and quite original i think.i liked Stalag 17,Run Ahead and Theme From Grining Ape the most and Stalag 17 had a drive and made me headbang |
||||||||
|

I believe in due time a retail album will be in order! or a bunch of cd-rs with semi-professional artwork. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What an excellent idea, I've alredy settled on the . The CD-R is a mix of all of the classic Grinning Ape tracks that have become part of the global consciousness, fused with Ambient Ape, a kind of selection of treated field recordings. If anybody wants one, drop me an email (see my profile) with your address and I will send one your way, lovingly hand crafted, and you can look forward to the day when you are set free from the shackles of "awful, trite musics". |
