5.25, that might have triphopped in to snuff = \

How can you listen to dubstep on something with no bass??? It might as well just be trance or triphop.

From what he ends up playing on the piano it sounds like he might have been able to pick up the bass since he tries to replicate it a bit in his rendition. I don't think it was just an audio pickup issue because the bass from the piano sounded much better than the original playback on the digital device.

best TripHop group evah!

and imo nothing sounds sweeter than Enigma or Massive Attack vinyls on record player

definitely Enigma and Massive Attack are 2 discographies everyone should download

im glad quality gives it such a huge boost, be sure to watch the wonderful triphop, drumnbass and other music in the last half hour. he's funny as hell but also a great (and hilarious) musician.

Thx! Yeah, their style seems pretty unique, they cross genres that are imcompatible to some..
Reminds me e.g. of drum'n bass fans thinking Pendulum is messing with drum'n bass..

Here I am in all my hyperallergenic middle class vegetarian stereotypical glory.


1. What do you do when you are not on the computer?

eat vegetarian food, fuck a vegetarian, buy vegetables, that sort of thing.
And make music, but that's on a computer... so.... but I play trumpet... Into a computer.


2. Approximate the percentage of time you work and you play on a computer.

like all the freaking time. since i was 5. asthma (see hatred of cars below)
but mostly design or chatting to people back home, i am not a hardcore leet geek hacker or something.
i like any sport that's wet, but i don't live near a lake or sea, so i don't do much sport.
I DJ, with proper records, dnb, dubstep, triphop... no computer. Then i upload the mix into a computer.


3. If you had a time machine would you travel to an era in the past or future? Explain.

depends if you can guarantee my safety, if so, i would like to see the future. but not my own future.


4. What is your ratio of pairs of shoes to undergarments?

1 to 20


5. Do you wear boxers or briefs?

i think you call them trunks.


6. Do you have a Mac, PC or Linux?

mac, but honestly it's only half as annoying as a pc.


7. Would you prefer death by firing squad or salmonella poisoning?

yo firing squad for real. what kind of idiot says anything else? i turned vegetarian after bad food poisoning so, no thanks, not again.


8. Do is you add sprinkles, gravy, nuts or a cherry on top?

gravy? on top of what?


9. Are you a tits, ass, or legs man?

yes.


10. What kind of pet(s) do you have? Include name(s).

none, i would have a cat if i wasn't allergic and i liked the smell of cat piss, i would call it tony blair. no, i would call it whatever my girl wants to call it (see previous question)


11. What is your favorite kind of taco?

those things that break when you bite them and spill meat all over you which (did i mention) i don't eat?


12. What is your favorite source for news?

videosift


13. What is your beer preference? Or other beverage (poison) of choice?

beeeeeer. anything english from a local brewery. Or Svyturys in Lithuania if i want lager, or a real lithuanian live beer, preferably dark. I feel old just typing this. I even like whisky now.


14. Have you ever been arrested?

No. Searched, but they didn't find it hahahahah.


15. Which is your Cheetos preference: Crunchy Cheese or Puffs?

Yikes. You eat that shit?


16. How would you describe your coif: bangs, balding or rug?

bangs wtf?
it's just off the collar, and a bit girly.


17. Is your face clean-shaven or do you have a beard, a goatee or a mustache?

smooth skin: kiss.
scabby red itchy hairy prickly skin: no kiss.


18. List your five most cherished possessions.

any video or audio recording i ever made.
banksy print, powerbook, trumpet, erm... i haven't got much else.


19. What religion did you practice as a child?

anglican christianity, but i didn't get it.


20. What is your favorite childhood memory?

yikes.
can't choose a favourite. i get vivid flashbacks though, normally embarassment or mundanity.
probably best feeling was sailing, in the sun, in a one man boat.
what i didn't like was the time i fell off waterskiing and forgot to clench my buttocks and about 30 litres of water raped me.


21. What was your favorite childhood television show?

terrahawks (gerry anderson... i think i have a sift somewhere)
things that fly out of buildings into space are awwwwweeeeeesssssssommmmeee.

22. What is your most sacred personal rant?

people should fucking create their own shit, and the government should invest more in creativity and education, capitalism alone doesn't work for art.

also cars and outdoor advertising should be banned. especially outdoor advertising of cars.


23. What is a reason not to go to Burning Man?

it's thousands of miles away and the water's expensive?


24. Who is your favorite Sift Hero?

choggie for insisting on creativity, literally with every word he writes.


25. How would your characterize SiftBot: slave, servant or secret overlord?

fiction


26. Do you have any image(s) of yourself online that you're willing to share?

if the roast is fun i am willing to unmask myself a bit. maybe some music. but i post as MINK, not myself, so my face is not relevant to the roast.


27. What is your quest?

to make 100% of my money from creativity and to spread that around. sounds lofty, but so does the word "quest". I do hope that after i die, someone enjoys something I made, and they say "hey, that guy made cool shit, shame he's dead". That's all.


28. What is your favorite color?

red. aries. what can i do.

Let the record show that I resent the male meat eating american bias in these questions but i'm like cool with it, you know, you can't help being a freaking yank.

np!

^CP: Monkey Dust has a lot of good triphop like this; you can find it on the torrents (it's also good dark humour -- we have a few clips of it here on the Sift).

I only have about 500 records, but haven't really been collecting for a few years now. My friend Jesse Dangerously, on the other hand, has over 2000. When we were roommates, we bought a HUGE record shelf from IKEA. I took up two of the twenty units. Jesse has it completely FULL now, although probably a full third of those records are bargain basement classics that he bought for sample digging.

My record collection is probably 1/3rd classic goa trance (astral projection, hallucinogen, infected mushroom, etnica, total eclipse, etc), 1/3rd banging techno, and the rest is a mishmash of ambient, triphop and classics... I've got a few rare gems- a test pressing of the mortal kombat theme music, for example- and some portishead singles, but most of my rare records are really niche psytrance finds.

“Upvote for the Ken Nordine, although I must say the powerpoint animation leaves something to be desired. The audio is from an album he released of radio ads that he made for a paint company back in the 50s. It's one of the most unique albums in my collection.””
