This person (guy/girl?) plays the SMB theme on guitar but with the coin noise on harmonics and other stuff.. looks like they forgot the fireworks though
http://media.ebaumsworld.com/marioguitar.wmv So I thought I'd get some MIDI files online and play them in my Fantom to see how they sound. Some are interesting some are "what the?".. I was impressed with how "Heart Shaped Box" by Nirvana sounded with the drums and guitars... of course it could be better - I'm not sure who composed the MIDI, and it wasn't explicitly made for the FS, but here it is:
http://www.phait-accompli.com/crap/fs_nirvana.mp3 and some more Tool - Stinkfist http://www.phait-accompli.com/crap/fs_stinkfist.mp3 NIN - The Becoming http://www.phait-accompli.com/crap/fs_becoming.mp3 Cost me $1500 (originally $2k), but there's an updated version called the Fantom-X for around $2000. I'm gonna dig around for some other potential songs.. any "requests"?
Still -- you should be using the Fantom to make your own electronica-style stuff :D
Nice though. I'm not really into Electronica... although I like Bjork, but alot of that stuffs been done already. I've been using it lately to conceptualise and experiment for the CD I want to release, but it can get frustrating so I've been taking a layed back stance on it and just messing around. Doing that I've found things getting less frustrating and alot more melodies and such start to come, especially on guitar.
Well it was about time.. occured to me today to load in some DooM midis!
http://www.phait-accompli.com/crap/fs_doom.mp3 3.7 MB - a compilation of 9 songs. Again, some things aren't going to sound the best because the midis' used GM patches, and those aren't the most realistic, but I didn't want to change anything.. although I did change some drums to ones with a bit more release, they just sound better. you may want to check an interview I did with Mathias Grassow, of Nostalgia. He is from Germany, perhaps some here have heard of him. There is a link to clips from the first Nostalgia album and his website.
http://written.phait-accompli.com/interviews/mathias.php The Prodigy launched a brand new album called Always outnumbered, never outgunned .. Is there someone who bought it ?? And what about the album ?? Is it great or not ??
If I had say hypothetically downloaded it, it wouldn't have been worth the hypothetical effort. That's hyopthetical mind you.
... I don't want to download it, I would like to have informations (what do you think about the album for example...) before taking a decision of buying or not the album, not more...
I bought the CD this afternoon, and it's the third time I'm listening it... I've just one thing to say: WOAOW !!! If you like techno house rock punk metal fusion, it's realy impressive... Their last album "The Fat of The Land" was already a good one, but now, it's like if the 12 tiltles were done like if it was a big remix with "FireStarter" and "Smack my bitch up"... It's really a fucking album !!! To listen as loud as you can !!!
I don't like techno house rock punk metal fusion I only listen to techno jazz rock punk metal fusion.
In case anyone hasn't mentioned Bond, they're what I'm listening to right now. Standard-seeming techno/classical, but just strings from what I can tell. More pop than anything, definitely not for those who consider themselves 'hard' or whatever, but good imo.
The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'
That's what I said The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand Or so I have read My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo I'd like to sink her with my pink torpedo Big bottom, big bottom Talk about bum cakes, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind? I met her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day You know what I mean I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day You know what I mean My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights Big game is waiting there inside her tights, yeah Big bottom, big bottom Talk about mud flaps, my girl's got 'em Big bottom drive me out of my mind How could I leave this behind? the legend that is Spinal Tap. It's worth getting the movie or the cd, but otherwise you can find the songs on filesharing apps pretty easily.
On a related note, I achieved a near-religious experience recently by playing the Spinal Tap song Stonehenge on my iPod while looking at Stonehenge itself! Stonehenge, where the demons dwell, where the banshees live, and they do live well.
