But if you scroll back up to the top image, that big puffy thing? That’s a “Body Woofer”, which is apparently a big speaker cushion that you lean back on like a sofa – complete with a dial to tune to your preferred setting like some sort of scary Sleep Number bed or something. Too bad they didn’t have dubstep when this came out.

On Wavepad, yeah, I can’t say I’ve heard of that – but I’d say generally, whatever you’re comfortable with is best. Considering that the vast majority of stuff most people do (up to and including most of the effects / weird stuff I do on some of my weirder episodes) is really just an extension of what one could accomplish with two turntables, a mixer and a mic, really any software is fine.

Price point looks good though – whenever you put your joint together, let us know how you liked it!

On the Blueprint EP and making up a mixtape, I’m going to follow the advice on there and get something together. At the moment, I’m heading on an ambient sound but I don’t know where I’ll end up. Oh, one small change I have in terms of making the mixtape; I personally prefer NCH’s WavePad Sound Editor ( http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/masters.html ) simply because I’ve used this software a little more.

Anyway, I’ll leave it there.

Peace

yeah, still working on getting free time enough to grab those records. On the headphones, I’m sure those exist around here somewhere in some dusty collector shop. I didn’t know they made one of these – I know of 武道館 (Budoukan, or Budôkan, idea where the author of that article got their spelling), but that was news to me.

On putting shows together, yeah, pretty much everything I linked up in the Blueprint episode stands. My workflow is pretty much the same – the only difference is that now I’m on a mac so I can’t use Adobe Audition. For a while I was using Logic, and now I’m trying Ableton Live (actually this ep was the first one done in that program). But you can put a tape together with pretty much any program – I was going to use Reaper, but got impatient (not the program’s fault, I just decided I wanted to try Ableton anyway).

I took a listen to that Scott-Heron album and I like it a lot. There wasn’t any filler and the tracks flowed well. It had a new sound and I liked that Gil did that. Hope he’ll showcase this stuff in April..

Also, I’ve been trying to put a mixtape together. I watched your EP on it but anything else you could help me with I’d be grateful for.

Peace

MF Doom ++ Radiohead

Nice to see a fresh show as well, will have to check my Zune and see if its on there yet.

Mr U – well yeah man, considering your comment on the last tape actually inspired this whole episode.

And both of you (Scottie V and Mr U) clearly know more about this sound than I do – I haven’t listened to hardly any of Massive’s stuff. Good looks on the recommendations, I’m going to check those out.

Oh, and I’m sure everyone is aware at this point that Gil’s record is up for listening in its entirety right here – definitely worth a listen.

Chantel – dope, always good to see someone else getting into this independent media thing. I’ll hit the site later on this evening!

Josh – yeah man, I’m just trying to spread out into some of the other stuff I listen to – listening again to this, it actually sounds a lot like my old radio show when I used to do normal college radio.

I can’t seem to find that track though – have you got a youtube link or something?

By the way, got tickets to see GSH at the Royal Festival Hall in April. Be good to see what the man’s got lined up..

Peace

I really liked this one, great mix and a little different than some of the material you put together.

Have you checked out the “Me and this Army: Radiohead Remixes” ? MF Doom does a cut “change the beat” over a radiohead song that is probably one of the best songs… damn its good. Couple years old, but sooooo good. Check me back if you can’t find it.

Keep up the awesome work, I especially like this mix! Morcheeba is bomb.

1luv.

I still gotta stand by the Massive Attack version as the best one I’ve heard thus far, but that link ain’t bad either. I love how the only one upped is an Audiosurf video too.

btw, my fave remix of Rabbit in your headlights – The Underdog remix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POBFrQLIBKg (original’s a classi though)

Tiger – good looking out – wait, what’s DD mean though?

Really enjoy every episode.

I agree that if you are unhappy, worried or have a problem, don’t lie to people and say “I’m fine”, be honest and share your negative feelings alongside your positive ones.

The first step to solving a problem is acknowledging it.

Thanks again, Dexter.

oh, I reupped a new version (had to fix a file format issue), so anyone who had trouble with the original, try redownloading. As a bonus, there’s 30% less yahmeeeeans so there’s that.
