How to be a troll musician in 8 steps

  1. Download Audacity (free)
  2. Use the IMPORT RAW AUDIO command
  3. Choose .exe files, mp3s, or other non-wav format audio (and import them as .wavs)
  4. Timestretch them to 4 minutes in length
  5. Apply EQ, Distortion to taste
  6. Put some delay or reverb on there to make it sound like an instrument and not a data file you imported.
  7. Buy a macbook, cover it with “forward-thinking” PETA and vegan stickers, buy a faggy black trenchcoat, and get on stage looking serious and pretending to be making intentional tonal changes while “performing” by pressing play on iTunes.
  8. Profit.
Gracias, Anon.

Esto es genial y hace que me den muchas más ganas de conseguir un iTouch ASAP. Me pregunto si el Zune HD delivereará algo de este nivel.

New song. Durante este tiempo he andado trabajando en varias cosas; fkn prolific, you know. Así que mientras sigo planeando mi dirección para el siguiente LP, supongo que puedo aventar esto aquí.

Quiero hacer algo así como que una suite sobre por qué los humanos somos estúpidos y las máquinas son bonitas porque no cometen errores. creo que esta es una buena forma de empezar.

Arts & Music

In 2007 they [Menomena]did a Take-Away Show acoustic video session shot by Vincent Moon. In late 2007, Craig Thompson appeared on stage with Menomena at several concerts over the course of a European tour. Throughout these performances, Thompson painted along with the music using a brush and ink on a large sheet of butcher paper. At the end of each show, the pieces were ripped into shreds and thrown into the audience.
Suena genial excepto por el final. Sería mejor regalar o vender las obras, o algo por el estilo.
