i'm working on a new project called Imag(in)eSound where I take your original images (photos, artwork, whatever), glitch/databend/mangle them, and then turn it into music. any and all are welcome to participate; all you have to do is send me an OC image.

i'm only two submissions in so far, but you ...

amazing track, and very cool video. I can't get over how much I love your aesthetic.

maybe not entirely "creepy," but I find that lots of múm songs have that sort of dark, demented aesthetic to them.

this is awesomeeeee

I really want to go to Iceland

hah, I saw the thread title and I thought "really? again , Iceland?"

i'd really like to visit too. it actually looks as though i'll be moving to Denmark in a bit less than a year, so I'm definitely going to try to traipse around Iceland while i'm over there.

very cool! a lot of really beautiful shots, and some of those transitions and overlays conveyed the sort of drunken/confused emotion very well. tasteful use of music/audio to drive the story.

my one and only critique is that I felt the digital zooms didn't fit well with the highly-organic (and ...

I recently bought the Bjork - Greatest Hits vinyl. It took a while to deliver, but it arrived and i was enjoying it
I noticed that my copy has a misprint

Notice how the tracklist says:
Side C- Venus as a Boy, Hunter, Hidden Place, Isobel
Side D- Possibly Maybe, Play Dead, It's In Our Hands ...

yup, got it! thanks.

I can't find a good source for the science on it (papers I mean).

This is a nice little primer on laser use. This short piece in Optics Letters demonstrates condensation and snow formation on a smaller scale (in a cloud chamber). I haven't found much on large-scale implementation, but I also ...

Please debunk this lecture for me because I'm slowly stepping from the contrails to the chemtrails party.

this lecture is absurd, if only because it's a collection of horribly alarmist and sensationalist images and catch phrases meant to scare and rouse you (and he even claims he's not trying to ...

awesome! can't wait to start on this.

thanks.

oh man, i'd love to give it a shot. I hadn't heard the first Powernap album, but i'm loving it so far.

Functioner. Can I do Functioner? That song rules.

I'm also unhappy with the sibilants on my vocal no matter how much I compress the S's and frequencies between about 7-10khz it doesn't come out right

the vocal siblance never jumped out at me as being overpowering or obnoxious, for whatever that's worth. the unfortunate fact is that if you track ...

this is beautiful! was not at all expecting the vocals. really great, mellow mix, and I love the bass line.

if I might offer a critique: I think the mix would benefit greatly if you pulled the main "drone" back in the mix once the vocals come in (or ...

I made a visualizer-style video for one of my newer tracks that I think came out fairly well. my first time doing anything like this, so it's certainly not perfect...

Full 720p video can be downloaded here (and I recommend it, since even "HD" youtube quality is sub-par) if anyone is interested.

nice man. that bell/vocal backing sample is perfect. i'd love to hear some drum variation when everything comes together around the 20s mark, but definitely a killer groove. got a very Prefuse 73 vibe to it.

great choice. i've been mildly obsessed with Satie and the Gymnopedies lately; so minimalist and simple, but very powerful.


I think my vote goes to NIN - Leaving Hope. that track always manages to toy with my emotions.

laid back and perfect for a hazy summer night. nice one!

guh. I had refused to listen until my vinyl arrives on Monday or Tuesday, but you guys are making it really hard to resist...

I finally put this little guy together. Nothing huge, but feel free to give it a listen, and I'd love to hear what anyone thinks if they've got the time!

really enjoying this, Perch! wonderfully clean mixes with just enough grunge and vinyl/tape noise to make it warm ...
