Bummer! Thank you for helping me get started with Lemmy, and good luck in your future endeavors!

over the internet

I know this probably isn't too uncommon these days, but I'm fuckin impressed that y'all pulled off something this slick remotely

I'm old, love DOOM and Aesop Rock/HMM, so I appreciate the big vocabulary and tongue-in-cheek weirdness


keep up the good work!

Great tune! I like that some of the pop-punk sounds from 20 years ago seem to be coming back into fashion.

Wonder if they're planning a US tour any time soon?

One of the later SNES games called Secret of Evermore!

It's kind-of a spiritual successor to Secret of Mana, but with a more sci-fi bent.

I'm newish to the plugin space, but two that I've found myself using quite a bit are:

Analog Obsession's Comper

Comper is a compressor with both serial and parallel options. I feel like I've gotten better sounds from this than the official Shadow Hills Mastering Compressor emulations from Plugin Alliance. Of course, that could be user error


I am a lowly live sound engineer, after all ;)

Tokyo Dawn's Records' Nova Dynamic EQ

I just like the way this one sounds. Does what I want with a good spectrum analyzer built in. I intend to purchase the full version soon, but I've found the free version very useful in my mixes. On the mastering side, I leaned into rhe Kirchoff EQ from Plugin Alliance, but it seems a bit unstable and feels a little overkill on the mixes where Nova gets the job done just fine.

I'm late to this party, but you might appreciate the open source Axis and Allies engine called TripleA.

My step-dad was a big WWII history buff, and he had the pc version of Axis and Allies installed on the family computer! Loved it and occasionally fire up TripleA for nostalgia.

Thank you for this! Graeber was my favorite anthropologist, and his work informed my research in grad school.

I departed the academic world years ago, but felt a huge loss for the discipline and for the global left when he passed. Currently working my way (very slowly) through The Dawn of Everything.

Interesting take, but super surprised to find it paired with an Isaac run!

 

I'm a live sound engineer, and when out-of-town artists ask me about my favorite local acts, this band is in the top two.

I've been bugging them about their album release for quite a while, so I was pleasantly surprised to wake up today to a message from one of the members letting me know it finally dropped.

MADRIQ is a supergroup of local players but isn't quite a jam band


the songs are more structured and the solos more reigned in. A lot of their material has a good dance vibe, but the band is decidedly rock-based rather than EDM.

While the genre is hard to pin down, I always look forward to mixing their shows, despite the large size of the band. Hope y'all enjoy Feelin' Right as much as I've enjoyed working with these folks over the past few years!
