old gate language

sweet spots, deep fry, pads, delays, reverbs, midi sync,
real time phrasing, disk space, broken buttons, saving over
a song. mr roland has crashed. were we rolling on the
recorder? that sounds real chriza and feza. rainy-face song.
some real aw-tetch-rie shit. my new bowie song. going to
make the kids dance. going to make the kids cry. i feel like
i was on a different planet. going out for a ciggy. i cant
believe we just wrote that. oi man thats a wicked song. this
song is giving me the shits, im going to delete it.

there's so much repetition in your post that it could've
been about 1/3 its length.

well youve got to get it all covered. 100 years from now we

them used

wow. you must have a lot of spare time on your hands.

how's about you stand up, walk away and actually find
something worthwhile to do.

i've heard the word 'soulless' used, usually by my father
and a couple of my mates. this pisses me off no end.

to denounce an entire - wide - genre of music as soulless is
moronic. there's soulless music in every genre. true a lot
of electronic music is soulless, cookie-cutter stuff, but so
is much rock, hip hop, whatever.

the thing is, there's not really anything you can reply with
to counter their argument. at least i have the last laugh
when i get home and zone out to lovely electronical music.
