VIP (a.k.a. today i learned)
FB: Is this release dubstepy as well?
APLM: yeah there's a bit of dubstep
SF: It's called "electro house" and it's this newfangled computer music that stupid young ins listen to :P More EDM than dubstep FB
APLM: yeah it's full on EDM. i actually only remember it going dubsteppy in one song
SF: Yeah, the Internet Friends VIP. And that's cause it's a VIP
APLM: haha yeah
SF: I like how much they changed it from the original. Most VIPs don't change that much
APLM: what does it mean when it's VIP...?
SF: VIPs are "harder" versions of the original song. More wobbly, I suppose
APLM: ...oh
SF: More metallic
APLM: well that makes sense
required latency.
B: The correct time to call album of the year is 10 years after that year.
R: is that the required latency for AoTY?
B: Pretty much.
R: haha
B: You can usually tell 10 years from now that it's the album you're still listening to.
R: but I don't listen to anything from 2002 anymore. so obv. nothing from that year was AOTY then?
only in america.
B: Har Har. Funland FInland torrents how it pleases, etc.
MATTI: haha

high pass.
WGWGSA: he put a high pass on your voice, for which i said why would you ever ever ever put a high pass on maria? SHE'S ALREADY HIGH PASSED
APLM: HEY
Not as fun.
FB: Guys how do I into motivation for music
APLM: what do you mean?
FB: I have so much to do but I just can't get started
APLM: well. in my experience if you already know what you need to do but that project is still stalling, then there's a reason behind it, and you have to figure that out before the creative block passes
FB: Um should I plan everything out or what. Or just do each project as I can be bothered..
APLM: idk what works for you. :/ it's a copout to say it's different for every person but it's true
FB: Dayum
APLM: do you have another hobby or something that you do constantly?
FB: I masturbate. Constantly.
APLM: LOL ok if you wanna use that. do you ever find that you can't masturbate no matter how much you know you need to (why am i even)
FB: Sometimes
VD: oh like when there's other people around you?
FB: Mostly because the friction burns
APLM: ...and how do you solve that?
FB: I have sex. But that's not as fun
APLM: LOL i am srs! just look at how you solve creative blocks or stalling in other areas of your life, because unless you're a complete failure as a human being you already know how to solve that block / lack of motivation -- you just don't realize it yet because you're not used to applying the solution to music
FB: I just kinda get in the mood again
Ass shaking.
R: the key to modern dance tho is 4/4 or 6/4
SH: aye, it's about shaking your ass
R: I suppose so
SH: well not everything. as lots of music is about artistic merit, but electro/rock should be about ass shaking
R: idk if most rock merits ass shaking tho
SH: ah but "electro/rock" as a genre -- a solitary genre, rather than meaning electro AND rock
R: ah yes
SH: that's for dancing
Demented music.
SH: I WANT TO MAKE MUSIC LIKE THAT, Demented music
R: ah
SH: How does one make music like that?
R: several ways of doing it. start with the bass synth, have it repeat every 16th note with no modulation
SH: i am copying all this down btw
R: add light pads overtop
Pumping.
FB: 'lo
R: yo how goes it fb?
FB: not bad kap, whats cracking
R: just pumping tunes like a club party
FB: pumping?
R: playing>listening
FB: oooh
R: lol.
FB: I thought it was some fancy producer technique
R: it also is I suppose
FB: haha
R: the process or throwing on a harsh limiter on the entire track
FB: Eww
R: with attack ~ 1-10ms + release~10ms
FB: Epic loud.
R: threshold/inputgain = -12dbfs
