  1. Do you believe the government is engaged in a conspiracy to withhold information from the public about aliens and/or how we are outclassed technologically by some unknown entity?
  2. I don't know, but odds are one of these guys does. Vs this guy Only in 'Murica does "a technology greater than our own" automatically equate to "it must be aliens". That we seem to be mostly focused on government hearings where the government complains about the government's conspiracy to hide these videos at the same time the government is showing the videos publicly makes me think its more about political theater, misdirection and/or grift than actually trying to ascertain what that technology is and who is behind it. "I'm not going to explain it to you, just watch. DID YOU SEE THAT?! It was hit by a HELLFIRE missle! DID YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID?! HELL!! AND FIRE! THATS FUCKING HOT HOT! AND IT KEPT ON GOING!"
  3. Neville Chamberlain had orders of magnitude more balls than the leadership of today's Democratic Party. The party is laying their prostrate, legs spread, waiting for someone to grab it by the metaphorical pussy and make it their own, like the GOP was when Trump came along. I know there are some signs of life in individuals like Newsom, the NYC mayor candidate and the Illinois guvnah, but Jesus, one of those dudes needs to call a press conference and announce that they are calling for a vote of no confidence in Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries and the DNC chair (whoever the fuck that worthless piece of shit is). I don't care if such a thing doesn't exist in American politics. Do it anyway to force the issue. Democrats need to have their own internal reckoning before they can hope to introduce a reckoning for the GOP, so... Chop chop. Time's up.
  4. It’s part of the cultural zeitgeist at this point to be an abject asshole challenging societal norms.
  5. How would you ever know? 😜
  6. I might understand how egregious this is if I knew who the hell James Blunt and Tal Bachman were.
  7. Also, he seems to be getting pretty desperate for someone to take his big city, blue state civil conflict bait. I guess its harder to justify suspending midterm elections if voters are just going about their lives ignoring him.
  8. Somehow Jerry Krause is to blame for this.
  9. The white supremacist billionaire's dilemma:
  10. Nope, just a happy side effect of getting it to all work together. Better to be lucky than good, etc... etc...
  11. Yeah, it actually sounds pretty good now on shitty speakers. One of the things I've come to rely on for mixing in my much less than ideal monitoring space is a plugin that makes your headphones have a response like a professional studio monitoring room. https://www.waves.com/plugins/cla-nx I've found that helps an awful lot when paired with a decent set of supported headphones. Its got 3 sets of monitors modeled from CLA's studio, one of which is just a shitty boombox. Its really nice to change between 3 sets of monitors in the software and cover lots of listening scenarios. I'm not tweaking a mix, bouncing it down, then listening it on my laptop speakers, phone speaker, car speakers, etc... I mean, I still do that, but once I get it good using all the monitors in this plugin, I find it pretty much sounds good on all the other listening scenarios, too. There's much less iterating needed.
  12. Thanks, yeah, I think it works as an editorial choice for effect/evocation like you describe, but my initial mixes, it all sounded like crunchy mush. In the end, I just really narrowed the eq band for the vocals and the solo has a somewhat wider band in the same area, but I notched it significantly where the vocals are present. So the solo kind of brackets the vocals frequency wise with the sum of them being a whole lot of mids/upper mids. A sorta unintentional side effect of the narrow EQ band on the outro vox is that it kinda sounds like an AM radio, which I think leans into the vibe of the song. The outro vox and guitar solo are panned left & right a bit, too, so they aren't right on top of each other. Another tricky part of the outro was the bass line, which starts down low around D1 and winds up at G3. So it is spanning some frequency lanes for the other instrumentation. I have it EQed more like a guitar and bring in some synth bass to hold the low end down as the bass line starts getting away from the lower register around where the vocal riffing comes in.
  13. Thanks, still just a private track as I finalize the mix, but I'll be pushing it out to all the things eventually. I appreciate the ears. Thanks, appreciate the feedback. In my mind, I had David Lynch "Lost Highway" as the vibe/mood I was aiming for with the composition and instrumentation. Desert, isolation, surreality, mental discord, etc... I'll look at dialing back some of the things you call out in the chorus a little. I've been most worried trying to get the outro to work with all the things that are going on there competing for frequency space. Glad to hear from both of you that that is in a good spot. Btw, It has occurred to me that a hot bridge P90 would have been the perfect sound for the outro solo.
  14. A new tune I'm finishing the mix on about a night spent driving through the Arizona desert and thinking way too much. Any mix feedback appreciated, especially the outro that gets pretty busy.
  15. You cannot tell me that Parker Livingston is not high as a kite in this video. Which is all right by me, because I'm high as a kite and he can ball... for a white guy. Know what I mean?
