chip. melodic. the sensation of hurtling through the windows 95 3D pipe screensaver at 3x speed. more of the hedfuck i want to study and yeah this seems a good tangent to give up on that youtube channel |

that first off, this is brilliant. i like messing around with a DDR face-off at the mall but i never really felt the urge to put the quarters in and get good at it, even though i'm sure i could. i kept finding myself, actually, annoyed the corners don't do anything. it constrains my motion in a very irritating way. this, however. it's just undulating patterns and colors with a guitar hero screen and you can solve the problem any number of ways. instead of the precise fucking arrows, it's a grid -- which i wouldn't get right away, but i would fare so much better with. it fixes so many of the problems that... ...essentially, this game could probably destroy my life, so i'm not going to touch it. that i would be really fucking good, but perhaps not quite world-class good. and i've already had that experience writing music. ouch second, though, i'm listening to this... walking around outside; cooking stir fry. that this has parameters. in particular -- and i love this -- that it's constrained to two minutes, and since it's an arcade game intended to get quarters, it's designed to be a crack rush that leaves you impulsively wanting to do it again, even if you were shit at it. genius. but then you're also constrained to the mechanics of the game, and you have to map this to do-able human motions, and it should be a good song too |

~ like i said. fixes the problems of ddr. i imagine these machines are outrageously expensive, you'll have to visit japan and hunt them down, etc. but this vid, it does kind of feel like... i know a few downtown bars, like the one with a small bowling alley, i suspect they don't know they know they need this; they could bankroll it |

"chorus" of mother ship, it hit me, is basically a direct rip of one off the tracks of plaid's double figure ~ but same general feel; love what you've done with the place "chorus" direct lift from halley labs ~ getting the impression this is all very hip-hop "just steal it" and we're getting away with it because no one can fucking crack the outer shell of japan to get to the nutty innards |

if you're looking to modulate key for the sake of drama and tension, japan is ready to go toe to toe with you |

aphex and drukqs kind of fill every moment of attention, that i almost kind of like this better -- that overall trying to be a bit house-y, hook-y, but then you just deploy the information overload in targeted strategic pockets and you're just comfortable with yourself and who you are running standard rave chording with a hardcore kickdrum for a bit. because you need to establish a grid before you can blow it up |

who was it who said, "your music always seems to be going somewhere"? wolfslice? that, hell, if you're interested in... that... just listen to what's going on with all the parts in this song. mostly just so nuanced trying to word it would be LONG but i guess, i'll just pick a bit, when you hear, "...need your touch" a bassy noise [that i'd use the moog grandmother for myself] just kind of bubbles up, and, like, i'm not directly synesthetic, but it's clear to me that that was perfect, that sound is what that "touch" feels like. sort of like the chris clark vid where the handbird wing is just stroking up his side to the chord, and i'm like: why yes, that's exactly how this chord touches me and then the song is still moving incredibly fast, but the stretch(es) i'm speaking of here, you'd miss it if you weren't listening, hearing how fast he's moving around bits of texture. like, actively working to sneak the complexity in |

oh, hmm. so it's all every night, every day. every night. every. day. every night. every day. every day. and there's not even 303 in the song, but tell me you can't just immediately find your head mapping that into accent, glide, up, down that i always felt like michael jackson sang like a 303. billy jean, the freaking glides. but i hadn't explicitly thought before: writing vocals but writing 303 patterns at the same time; you're writing the vocals to match the 303 pattern? solid idea |

"BCM and DJ Noriken" no fucking way this is the BCM from watmm. he was far too mild for this |

~ well he's cited on morcheeba; raises an eyebrow but i'll believe it. but, yep, this is some japanese BCM; he could never have had fuck to do with "kill switch" |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
and alright this is more in line with who i picture making all this. because it fucking ain't watmm bcm for damn sure |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
"BCM - Topic - Come On Now" ~ yeah this is clearly some japanese person named BCM who is just gradually taking over keyword search from watmm BCM i love how the internet goes improbability drive sometimes |

2:33 fuck me that's a great blend; the flange |

that memory is a funny thing. i'll find myself in the position of: you remember this, but you need a nudge in college i bunged along with some urban explo thing of an abandoned subway. like, i dunno, 12 years later, i run into one of the guys who was on that run on IRC, of all things. sure i'll send the photos i took. but then i was reminiscing how, after we emerged from the depths, we found like, this little memo notebook, just on the normal street, with lists of rhyming words and after a bit of arguing: "this was some aspiring rapper's crib sheet" and at first he can't remember it at all, but i keep feeding details, and eventually he's all OH YEAH and he's got it and we're on the same page. he needed a nudge similarly. it just hit me: this has been done before, somewhat. that the memory is over a decade old so you'll have to forgive me -- but, yes, i do remember, before being banned from watmm, BCM watmm was going on about how there's a japanese BCM and what should i do? whatever he decided to do was clearly no good; japanese BCM mopping the floor with him |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
that i actually swear i've had this moment of unearthing the memory of "there's a japanese BCM, what do i do?" before, but i haven't mentioned these letters here before [aside from a chance splat in a megaupload link] according to my database search it's not urgent or anything, but i would be beyond delighted if someone got it over to watmm BCM that japanese BCM is just totally cleaning his clock. thx |

clean. sick. not overwhelming. then it just breaks into... fucking hell, remember how vibert used to blow us away? it's very... very vibert for a stretch |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that actually, the bass noise in that.. shadows, i think, same-ish bass noise? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so i'll be clearer 1:38 ~ this explodes into something off "sorry i make you lush." pretend the heavy compression isn't there. just subtract it out, for the sake of comparison to vibberts 2:27 ~ really reminds me of "shadows" but now that i play it back again vibbert's bass sound is way lush-er. go figure 3:17 ~ still vibert but getting off into... shit, can't quite place it |

yellow magic orchestra. |

| |||||||||
|
|
then, oh, do just listen to it from the start. i admit to tapping my foot and waiting for the part where they twist the song's balls tighter until's a chipmunk to be over but then we're into something... very masterfully gated like infected mushroom, but just more... oh hell that's a r am b l e; nm then it lags a little until we get to my description log starting 1:38 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just rhythmic waves washing off you in your wake with syncopation. then the dubstep slowdown. which i am still on the fence about. it's not as bad as twisting the track's chipmunk to balls tho |

those are a ton of fun! gotta get them into stepmania.. |

not ddr, just straight-up hardcore. but it definitely innovates a bit within those bounds again, re: drugs: the point has been made. but if it needs to be any further, i'm finding compilation albums with titles like "Speedball Z" and the songs are named like "ROCK DA JAM" from artist "M-PROJECT fw. THE THONG MOVER", "spEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEdphiLiA230pLus+", and then of course there is a song simply named "Coke" pretty much none of them are as good as the titles would lead you to hope. this one track was the real keeper |

it wouldn't be a terribly memorable track on its own except it's called GRAVY BOAT and they clearly meant gravy train but commitment is complete there are vocoders going GRAVY TRAIN |
||||||||
|

|

er, GRAVY BOAT. sorry, mental autocorrect going back to earlier links -- We Could Get More Machinegun Psystyle! -And More Genre Switches-, ILLEGAL TRAP the english of this camellia person is delightfully atrocious. you start with like and no, you wanted WILDANESS or WILDANIZ because that's not how... and the album it's off is called "INVAIDAS FROM DA JUNGLE" and where did that extra I come from? then, obviously, we have "poison mushroom" instead of infected mushroom, illegal trap, oh, illegal trapping, trap music, right. but the joke doesn't quite land and it's hitting me that... this is a japanese person who is neither black nor furry trying to combine american black culture with american furry culture and that's their -- his, i suspect -- theme for the album. then there's another album like "Blackmagik Blazing" which is like american black culture with a theme of occult, witches, track names are like "Nasty * Nasty * Spell" and yeah i think this person basically takes two or things they don't thoroughly understand from the american psyche and then turns it into manic DDR machinegun psystyle and if you love it when the the world seems like it spat someone out of a random number generator... |

totally different artist, track called "Throw the Money" and this is deeply nebulous. throwing money at something, sure. but "Throw the Money"? do you mean "Show the Money" or "Throw your Money (at me)" or just perhaps "Throw your Money (randomly in wads all over in da club in response to this song)"? i threw my money out, trying to figure this out giggle |
