Joe's talk at the Timbers launch was seminal - like the Gettysberg address from *Little Rooms* - imbibe his words!

The truth is, we don’t know what multi-band compression or linear phase eq do to people long term. There’s no information! So that’s why my kids only listen to unmastered music. It just feels safer that way.

Yes I looked into it just before going to bed far too late last night. Number Used Once. Elegant, code-and-word-wise

Yeah I'd heard of it before in my brief kerfuffle with crypto but didn't really know what it was. Now I do. My assumption is that it got its cryptography meaning well before it got its other meaning... and yeah the nonsense thing tracks... a way of identifying that two things heard the same nonsense

2) But I did get there eventually

3) The solution I came up with apparently has a technical name - 'Nonces'

4) SNICKERING

Just asked Claude for a honest answer to whether I should continue trying to do this fiendishly difficult thing in Reaktor or vibe-coding something from scratch in C++ / JUCE. It said go with Reaktor...

This is the exact experience I’m doing very hard things to make possible haha. Another should have learned c++ job. Hell even assembler

Finally got round to migrating to Claude from ChatGPT due to Pentagongate. Don't usually take exit surveys but felt important to make it clear this was mainly on ethical grounds.

"The music industry has spent a decade obsessing over how to get a million people to listen to a song once. The next decade will be defined by artists figuring out how to get 1,000 people to care forever."

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.

Yeah I think breakcore was where we realised it had gone too far. I've heard they're testing the boundaries again though haha.
