    Which ones do people always suggest?

    Maybe Cannonball by the Breeders? Rotten Apple from Alice in Chains' Jar of Flies Not generally a big Aerosmith fan, but the bassline at the start of Sweet Emotion is fun and not too difficult.

    So, if there's no more bird, then we shouldn't call them "tweets." What should they be called now? X-cretions?

    I’m super into csound, it’s kind of my weapon of choice. It’s slow and awkward workflow wise, but it just clicks for me. Do you have any groups or boards where you discuss that? I’d love to start one here.

    Yankee Hotel Foxtrot had a lot of sounds and instrumentation coming from all around. I always liked the voicing and panning on the Flaming Lips albums The Soft Bulletin and Yoshimi. They’re pretty compressed though.

    Why not both? Can’t we hope enough stuff leaves twitter to hasten it’s demise and that threads implodes after a short period of over inflated reports of success?

    Man, I do love this album. I was just starting college when it came out and it was discussed a lot in my circle of friends. It was a shift for me into thinking of a specific album and it’s creative choices critically rather than just liking a particular artist or band.

    I have just assumed my ears aren’t great anymore. Too many band rehearsals and shows, or headphones. Recently I’ve come to realize my chronic sinus congestion probably fucked them up as much as my rock n roll lifestyle.

    It’s nice to hear the sound is bad and it’s not just that I’m bad at hearing it.

    actually, I just noticed this community doesn't show up in the community browser - https://browse.feddit.de/

    I'd guess it's not federated, meaning the instance where the community was created is not configured to allow subscription access from other instances, but you can access it by reaching that instance directly.

    Weird, I haven’t been able to either. However I was able to subscribe to other Lenny communities. Maybe something is configured in that instance that won’t allow us to subscribe?

    I mostly do Spotify. I often listen to music I bought back in the day, but it’s so convenient not to have to find it or connect to it. I sometimes listen to Apple Music for the songs I had bought back in the DRM era.

    If I’m at home and have access I’ll listen to my hard drive collection.

    If there’s something specific and weirdI want to hear, it’s usually in my hard drive collection or I have to find it on YouTube.

    Sometimes I’ll listen to a ‘mood’ playlist on YouTube too.

    All this talk about not pooping for 3 days…

    You know why I get a hotel room? To poop in peace. No kids bangin’ on the door, No phones ringin’. It’s my time! Every Tuesday and Thursday at 3:00 pm! I don’t know why I only go twice a week.

    What do you make music with?

    I'm a dad, so I have no time and all my gear is old. I want to start making music again, but I think I need to more or less start over in terms of gear and software. I'd like to hear a bit just about what you all are using to make music. Are we all using Macs and commercial software like Logic or Abelton? Anyone bravely trying to work things with Linux? Anyone kicking it old school and recording to tape? Anyone using light weight set ups like iPads or tiny Zoom recorders?

    Hello! thanks for setting this up.

    I'm new to lemmy and I have a question or two about being a good group member.

    Does it impact other local users at all if I subscribe to federated communities from other instances? Like if I join /30Rock does that make it more accessible or apparent to other users here? or only my account?
