    I Love The Halloween Season =)

    I sometimes go to the Whitby Goth event around Halloween. It's a great way to have some spooky fun. But this time I'm going to a Club in Birmingham and meeting some of my weird friends there for fun&games.

    I Love The Halloween Season =)

    I love all of the month of October. The golden afternoon sunlight. The mellow harvesting of the hedgerow berries. The glorious flaming acers. The mushrooms, decorative, deadly and delicious. But most of all the crowning glory of Halloween. I've spend the last few at Whitby among the hoards of...

    Does soda or other caffiene drinks give you a bad feeling

    I absolutely love coffee, the flavour and the hit. But that leads me to gradually increase my consumption. Then the palpitations and digestive problems start and I have to lay off for a while. Then the cycle repeats. I find I can drink tea with its lower caffeine content so long as I keep it...

    Impulsivity

    I like the umbrella term 'Neurodivergence' because it describes our differences without judgmental undertones such as 'disability' or 'comorbidity' and because it covers those with positive cognitive and emotional abilities beyond what is regarded as neurotypical. But we also need labels to...

    Post music you've made!

    Glad to help. The other advantage of resampling is that all of the reverb, delays etc. get 'frozen' into the samples/wavetables saving tons of CPU cycles.

    Ambient music is alive and well! These links are a good starting place to find out how to create it: https://www.youtube.com/@s1gns0fl1fe https://www.youtube.com/@VenusTheory

    Post music you've made!

    Sounds like you extracted the electronicness and metalness of the genre, concentrated it and then squeezed it out onto a track. Love it! Lil

    Post music you've made!

    Wow! Thank you so much! 'Space Ambient' is rather a niche genre and many people don't 'get' it. I love it with it's slowly evolving hypnotic rhythms and drones. My stuff rarely gets comments and yours has inspired me to develop that track further and start some more in that genre. Thanks again.

    What gender are you?

    That is the bit I find problematic. As far as I know all, of my chromosones are XY. But my gender just is. It always has been. All my life. There was no preference, choice or decision involved.

    Retrocomputing / Retrogaming

    Oh...I'm 20 years older than you! But I still have an insatiable curiosity about everything, especially science/tech and never stop learning. My once photographic memory isn't quite so sharp nowadays, though. Like you I went through a 'phase' but for me it was motorcycles and hanging around...

    Retrocomputing / Retrogaming

    It sounds like we are of a similar age! I can remember efforts to load software from cassette tape, it usually worked after a few tries., lol! I'm a typical Aspergers nerd and have enjoyed lots of techy hobbies. After computers it was Ham radio and I still have my license, GW4AUD. Then back to...

    Retrocomputing / Retrogaming

    I still have my TRS80 stored somewhere! It was an American import and so needed a 110 Volt mains supply. I had to get a transformer to use it on our 240 Volt mains. Later, I added a 1k memory chip so it could display lower as well as upper case text. Also, I modified an old teleprinter to...

    Retrocomputing / Retrogaming

    Hiya all. This is a bit of a stretch from retro computing but there is a connection. I dabble in electronic music and I was after a novel sound source to incorporate into a music track. Well, what could be more retro than to build the source using 50 years old technology from the bits and pieces...

    Post music you've made!

    I dabble. No particular genre but people often call it ambient. This is my Soundcloud link but I'm preparing to move my stuff to Bandcamp with the same Ipomea1 artist ID.
