Browsing profiles on a dating app, a lady has a video of herself playing guitar. I think "cool!"; I unmute that video, she's playing Sweet Home Alabama. You could do a LOT worse, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Even Neil Young likes that song. Taylor Swift on a ukulele....tha...

Well put, I agree.

It was charming when one of the South Park kids called this record the GOAT.

Don't forget the PEACH PIT AFTER DARK.

As someone who tried a lot of stuff to make a contact mic have a kick drum quality (on a typewriter), I needed to use a graphic EQ pedal into a gate pedal into a subwoofer to get that happening acoustically. If that’s what you’re going for. Yeah.. this is probably correct. Even with the sub octave ...

I really like dead sounding drums as of late, and feel like I spent many years chasing "big/live/open" drum sounds because of personal bias rather than what was right for the music. Make hydraulic heads great again, etc.... For me, it was a case of competing with volume. Now that I don't ...

Nice! I love having a Minilogue around the house. I kind of see it as the modern version of having an upright piano in the living room, except easily movable. It has USB/MIDI/optical features (I'm sure the MS-20 does too) but you don't have you use them. Enjoy!

I can get behind the guitar parts of Permanent Waves.

I love biking but in the US bike commuting is basically like going to war. Critical Mass-types are out of their goddamn minds if they think the average person will subject themselves to being yelled at, spat on, doored and sometimes even killed. And this is in cities with bike lanes, shorter distanc...
