tasty new amiga groovebox just dropped

@sean_ae @elifyalvac @Cognessence @oscillik @Rushup_Dee i might step into the fray and say gm stuff initially appealed in a "oh how weird, this is funny but bad".
back in the livejournal days i used to find gm versions of unlikely songs and that shit cracked me up. i guess i feel about the same about it as i do about the n64 soundfont things on youtube
https://youtu.be/AEfhizNQh70?si=01LG7ej36KraovmN
btw this thread is how i just learned gm is no longer native in mac os.
@sean_ae @elifyalvac @Cognessence @oscillik @Rushup_Dee here's a bunch of Yngwie Malmsteen songs in gm if you're so inclined:
-
@Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee imagine if I saw the light suddenly and started making GM sounding music with them bad snares and really loud flat strings but in Max
All modelled really anally
@sean_ae @Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee this sounds like the modus of tagaki masakatsu's Eating 1 and 2. i hum some of those trax to myself on the regular tho

@c_reider @elifyalvac @Cognessence @oscillik @Rushup_Dee I’m actually enjoying this meshuggah one
It’s not really the sounds I don’t like on that sim city it’s the way a lot of that stuff was made I think, weird velocities and whatnot
Like there’s a sort of uncaring thing going on that I can’t get my head round

@sean_ae @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee Truly esoteric knowledge. Only the finest minds.

️ 
I also want to reply to your other very interesting post when my brain is a bit more in order!
Thank you as always, Matt.
@Cognessence @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee Haha, you're welcome, no worries. I'm just loving trying to figure out this I-now-realise-beautiful melody! Dude, those two bars at 0:42, their crashing 4th beats. Gorrrgeous!

@sean_ae @c_reider @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee Actually the "uncaring" is a good point - has made me rethink things a bit. Although it was always the sounds I was attracted to.
Also enjoy the n64 soundfont things c.reider mentioned.

@miblo @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I've realised the melody is "two wrongs make a right" on most tracks on the E.P, haha!
I mean, making the first bits of the "conversation" consonant, and then doing odd turns on the third stroke.
It's all about threes!

had to find Bleed but it’s kinda disappointing. not bad but not in love w/ it, gets better as it goes tho.
edit: i lied, im in love with the bridge where the drums drop out & it kicks back in w/ the brass solo, those sections are great -
@Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee just
Just stop ok
@sean_ae @Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee the gm stuff only really sounds interesting when augmented, like some artists do on orange milk for example. if i had to choose between different sound sources for pc i'd absolutely never take gm tho, especially if you had the option for adlib or yamaha fm (like on the x68000 for example with its base sound chip) or like gravis ultrasound-like wavetable instead.

The stabs coming in was ace
But the loud melody after that is a bit loudI’m gonna fall asleep to this album now so if I wake up a changed man it’s your fault

@zweikreise @Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee yeah rob did some ace stuff on his thinkpad with that fm chip and GM stuff on the pma5
Now I think about it he prob invented vaporwave but actually at the time

@sean_ae @Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee gm sound and vaporwave is a bit of a chicken and the egg situation. do we associate these sounds to vaporwave because that's what was sampled, or was vaporwave an aesthetic trend that just didn't really have a name and was just codified.
like, devil summoner soul hackers is to me an actual vaporwave artifact. i know it existed at the time but it's an incredible sum of all that the aesthetic represents, ost included: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl6pv2f3ILU

This is what the thesis may prove!
@Cognessence exactly!
Thesis link, might work in the morning. Very annoying server error https://polen.itu.edu.tr/items/4d4df2ee-b5bc-431d-b2e1-25925b98d9e3i did talk to older guys when I did the interviews for thesis hmm but I don’t remember the exact age range. Or you may want to take part in an updated version to be with new interviews @sean_ae
Maybe some nanoloop to play with againSuper nice thread sad to leave for bed! Argh just when @c_reider joined in.
-
@emenel @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee Ha!
Speaking of educational software - did any of you play these? Amazing. Not much pronoun inversion and grammar substitution learned, but some physics. Maybe.

@Cognessence @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee yes! i loved those. it also introduced me to rube goldberg.
-
@Cognessence @emenel @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I did not. At this period in time I was hacking the school computers to put DOOM and Rise Of The Triad on them
@oscillik @Cognessence @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee i was also doing that. they are not mutually exclusive

@c_reider i can't handle much of them so i ain't gotta worry about that but it's very interesting to hear it in these contexts no matter. love that someone put all that work in
