One of my very favourite podcasts. They've just dropped a new episode with Terry Farley as special guest

@whichdecadetops.bsky.social hey Mike, just listening to the new Disco Charts podcast. Re which breakbeat is used in Silver Bullet - 20 Seconds To Comply - I think it might be both of them. "Britcore" productions of that era would often layer multiple breakbeats...

This one is really tough like -- writing the alt text on these is impossible. A guy's brain is exploding because it seems to be wired directly into some Commodore chips and out of that is coming some pirate adventure. I probably misidentified some Commodore models above, I realize.

We talk about the golden ages of print. But honestly, no one will ever do tech covers the way Hungarian Commodore magazines did.

Four images on Commodore újság -- a black C128 in a basket of fruit veg and flowers, a young girl looks over her shoulder wearing a black C128 (?) over her shoulder like a backpack, a C64 next to a typewriter with a stack of magazines and a bunch of discarded papers in a wastebasket, a C64 with ... wait is that cheese and wine?!

Didn't he just talk about Labour wasting millions trying to postpone elections and then being forced to u-turn? Two minutes later - let's have a vanity by-election in Clacton so I can dodge a recall.

People always remember the Jackie/Jocky Wilson moment on Top of the Pops. A lesser known snafu was the time Samantha Janus was on, and someone accidentally pressed the manual shutdown button on her backing singers.

I was sat in gridlocked traffic in Barrow-in-Furness when they played that audio from the oval office yesterday. I don't know if that location and situation is a factor but I've felt exhausted and anxious and furious ever since.

Any #audient evo16+sp8 users looking at this? Having an issue with the word clock coming out of the evo16 supposedly being at 88.2khz when the unit is at 44.1khz. SP8 is set to auto sample rate as per Audient instructions. This is driving me a bit mad.

Neil Kulkarni left us a year ago. He ripped through the music press like a benevolent hurricane, laid waste to monumental mediocrities but never punched down. He was fired by a raging sense of inclusivity, the belief that things could, should be so much radically better for everyone. Sorely missed.

Third time I've tried to get into Reaper, and I think it's finally sticking with me. Haven't even got into customising the UI but I've used it to mix a bunch of tracks and liking it a lot. The big test will be how I like it for tracking and editing (particularly drums).

I've had a really good band contact me regarding me producing and/or mixing their new album. They asked what my rate was. This is always a minefield because for a somewhat open-ended project, it makes much more sense to figure out a budget and work to that.

Been here a while but haven't really posted. I've just finished producing the soundtrack (17 original songs!) for an as yet unannounced game. Also hoping to have the new Mclusky record finished tonight (I recorded and mixed it... hesitate to say produced).
