Let's pull out our cooking utensils
everyone who has touched a sampler or DAW has done this. it's one of the most basic production techniques. it's like painting a nursery room and thinking you're rothko or strumming an open tuned guitar and thinking you're tal farlow (with fallon clapping like a 4 year old the whole time).
...as my art professor used to say, "if it was so easy, why haven't you done it?"
Most vocals you hear are fake
shiiiit. sure everything is stitched together. that's the modern digital audio workstation (DAW).
What folks don't realize is that Anteres Autotune is THE standard in the studio. Every pop star and song gets their dose.
That, ultra compression on everything and ultra repetition in production, gone are the days of creamy analog bliss by good musicians, performing a well-written song actually written by the artists.
Now everything is done post-production, and Autotune is 'the sound' of today's pop. The writing is done by teams of "producers" who have mastered today's pop sound and format.
And then LAWYERS.
For hip hop, in the 2000's lawyers began suing the shit out of anyone who sampled old stuff. Today, an artist can use samples, but they must PAY quite a bit. So, only artists with labels behind them can AFFORD to sample. Hence, Bruno Mars can sample everything, and steal everything, then autotune the shit out of it. And wha-laa - he's got a super-produced, money-backed hit where his producers just copy the shit out of everyone.
And in the end, Bruno Mars is the P.F. Changs of music - white appropriation all-dressed up, pre-packaged and sold.

We Did Stop--Government Shudown Style
Law-dee-daw-dee!
Launchpad is AWESOME

"It's like playing a musical instrument, except if you get the chords wrong the crowd will think less of your skills as a musician.">> ^PancakeMaster:
It's like a musical game of memory, except if you forget a block live a few hundred youngsters will boo you.
There are no chords to get wrong. The chord is programmed into one button.
This is an 8 x 8 grid of binary switches. Pressing a button activates a sample.
Compare to a piano with 88 keys, each key has variable volume depending on how hard you press it. Plus three pedals (soft, sustain, and sostenuto). You actually have to play the melody and accompanying chords.
I wouldn't call him a musician. Just like I don't call DJs musicians.
If he had made this soundtrack without using the launchpad, using DAW software and various plugins and samples, that somehow is more "musician"y than using a 64 key launchpad with samples that he probably prepared himself, even though the end result is the same? Maybe composers aren't musicians? Or are you saying this isn't music?
And, you must not think a person playing a small organ is a musician, since it has fewer keys than a piano, and each key is a binary switch that turns on and off the sound of the pipe.

Complaint about title, DAWs have to die to win. Merely coming close is just an Honorable Mention.
The techinical qualifications are a bit nebulous. Can you only remove yourself from the "[collective] human genome" by death? Or is it sufficient to steralize yourself and ensure you leave no progeny?
The Darwin Awards salute the improvement of
the human genome by honoring those who
accidentally remove themselves from it...
Though, in this case you're correct either way, I'm just being pedantic.
yes, actually. the qualifications of a DA are either death (which would render you unable to reproduce) or some catastrophe that left you unable to reproduce. they get pretty gruesome in the books, sometimes.

You just couldn't see it, that's all. He rolled off camera, and out into the street where he was hit by a bus.

Batman Meets The Riddler
>> ^deathcow:
who is that girl
Dunno but she's a lot hotter than the girls playing Rachel Dawes in Nolan's Batman movies. I for one would love to see a Batman movie with no love interest. Batman is the real guy. Bruce doesn't really exist and thus has no real love life.
Good discussion of the European economic situation.

Clark & Dawe: Iraq strategies

What is this about? I see these and have no context.
They're great comedians who do impressions of figures' thought process, rather than their mannerism.
