Anyone had a listen to the new Devin Townsend Band song? If not, you better get on this boat.

Anyone know of a good, free modular synth vst instrument?
If you want to do the modular thing on a computer I'd really recommend just taking the plunge and learning reaktor or max.
Is there any cool drummer out there willing to help me out? I'm dying to cover this song:

How do you guys think music composed by trolls would sound like?

That's some beautiful music right there, and thank you :)
Anybody know a good vst or samplepack I can use to make some super filthy bass wubs like the ones that show up in this one? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSxhiNpgiuE[/media]
The standard answer is Native Instrument's Massive vst and youtube video tutorials.
I always wondered, if Squarepusher or Igorrr or Venetian Snares make these drums (assuming they use Ableton, which is unlikely for some of those guys), do they just automate the Stretch parameter for those snares? Or is it an extremely complex thing they do?
Venetian Snares use renoise. I assume you mean those ridiculously fast snare rolls? They'd most likely use the retrigger command for that in renoise, or they work on a really high LPB, and then just place each sample on lines right after another.
Squarepusher does it manually, i dont even think he uses a grid - i know four tet doesn't

Wondering if I could get some feedback for my friend, I love her stuff but I'm obviously pretty biased beacause I know her.

Creative Music in Progress was the right thread to post this in, you should have left it there.

Read the rules there first though, most don't seem to.
Does anybody know any other forums with a musician section? I'm getting a bit tired having to constantly give in-depth feedback only to recieve (if I even recieve) feedback that says "oh this is good" or any other combination of <10 words.
Yeah those were my experiences too. Even though everyone is forced to provide feedback, it doesn't mean that you'll get feedback in return, let alone useful feedback. I posted several things there and only twice I got feedback and then it was just "That's nice".
[URL="http://www.reddit.com/r/WeAreTheMusicMakers/comments/2psmt6/official_121914_friday_feedback_thread_contest/#/button/c/yellow/"]Reddit has this thread.[/URL] Never posted something there myself and it seems to suffer a bit from the same thing as the FP thread. Maybe everyone provides mainly positive feedback in a sort of "You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" sort of way?
Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have positive feedback but that's not what most people post their stuff for in that thread (why else have that rule).
It just annoys me so much when you spend so much time trying to really help people, and you really don't get the same treatment back. I even went and checked how many times I gave feedback versus how much I recieved after I wrote that, to be sure this wasnt just some hypocritical bullshit and I found that I gave feedback on 134 tracks, whereas I only recieved feedback on 56 tracks.
It's just the nature of pretty much every music/art forum ever. Maybe there is a safe heaven somewhere where everyone is ultra professional and amazing at giving feedback.. probably not

i tend to not give feedback too often since most people here make music for genres i'm not too into
but if i do notice something i'm more of an expert in i'll try to help out
especially with albums, i like giving feedback to albums
[B]Fuck. Yes.[/B] Just sent a rough first draft beat off to a big UK dnb MC who agreed to work with me (don't want to be the name dropping guy so not saying who yet). His response after hearing it: "fuck off this is SICK!!! Leave it with me I'm on this 10000%"
Quick audio question. I use an old projector to play my console games NES/SNES/Sega/N64 etc.
It only has a video RCA plug and I use separate speakers. Is there some box I can put between speaker system and game console to add delay to the sound to correct the audio/video mis-match?
I did a quick search and could only pull up boxes that cost hundreds of dollars when it seems this type of thing could be made from five bucks worth of radio shack parts.
Hey I got an ep released on a record label, but it didn't feel worth making a thread so I'm gonna post it here. What do you guys think? It's electronic and a bit dancey.

do you guys know of any places I could go to find rappers? i've been itching to produce something with rapping but the only free acapellas I could find were either ripped from released tracks or really bad. any help is greatly appreciated
Go to open mic evenings/jam sessions in places that (tend to) play hip hop. Or just hang around those places when there's a hip hop event going, chances are people will be rapping spontaneously (usually they are pretty bad though, the worst is when you accidentally make eye contact and they start rapping in your direction and you can't ignore them without being rude).
whoops probably should have been more specific, there's no events like that around where I am so I'm looking for websites and stuff like that :v:
