Music Thread.
I thought a trio of themed threads about other entertainment media might be good. If you're not interested, please just ignore the thread and pick some threads that interest you from here: http://celephais.net/board/view_all_threads.php

Anyway, discuss music...

Cool, I've been messing around with FL Studio, I can't really get Slayer sounding right. As soon as you add drive to make individual notes stand out more it just fills with scratching noises :(

Any way you could share your settings for it? :E 
 
JPL: sounding like the BAND Slayer is desirable. Sounding like the overrated and overpriced VST Slayer, not so much.

ZQF: maybe if I ever actually finalize the settings I'll post the presets - but you'll probably be disappointed as they're not very different from what already comes with the program. The difference is that many of the controllers (damping, harmonic, pick position, feedback, etc.) need to be in constant motion because the minute you let a single one of them sit still, it starts to sound like a synthesizer again. Keep in mind that a real guitar has a good clean sound and all the effects that are added to it merely amplify and enhance that initial sound. Slayer is the exact opposite. When you remove all the effects from Slayer, you don't get a clean guitar sound. You get a Karplus string tone that sounds like absolute shite. So instead of a real guitarist showing off how awesome his Les Paul or Strat sounds with the pedals attached, a Slayer user is piling on a very delicate sequence of effects specifically to conceal the fact that the foundational sound completely SUCKS.

I was referring to the band, obviously !

Number stations are so damn awesome. I love having http://archive.org/details/ird059 (The Conet Project - Recordings of Shortwave Numbers Stations [ird059]) in the background. Caught one myself randomly some weeks ago. 
Wagh 
You stopped me listening to this:

Doom64 wins on evil, although the number stations stuff is close on weirdness.

Mmmm. 
Would be shite to hear any more than the 15 seconds I had the misfortune to skip to. What dreary generic pointless drivel.

Saw the singer from this lineup in Penrith (believe it or not) when he was in another band called Killshot. I really like this, kindov grindcore stuff:
