  1. everyone, check your email boxes! if you didn't get an email from me, tell me!
  2. already sent you the money, anso...what does he need me to do?
  3. larry's tagging everything right now, and beyond that there's just some tweaks for the site. then we're done (except kmet needs to finish portal).
  4. i have the money. what's your email address for paypal?
  5. i now have all mixes, completed, except for portal. that's 15 project mixes and two bonus ones. HAWT! supercollab is done. site is done. album art is done. files are almost all tagged and will be distributed tomorrow, as far as i know.
  6. fratto's right. trust me when i say that projects that lose a strong sense of leadership almost never pan out. look at laproject, seiken denetsu (sp?),or even the pokemon project that i love so much - leadership was lost, and the projects went downhill (pokemon's down, but it's not out yet!). find someone who's going to put in the time, and you'll find a project that's really chugging along again.
  7. no, i couldn't record. i'll send in a bonus, but that's as good as it'll get.
  8. i'll actually have to bring a jacket this time. last time i wore a hoodie, and that was the extent of what i needed. it was frozen and below zero in buffalo, but it was like fall down in NC and VA.
  9. my piano-major fiancee IS in town...hrm...
  10. lol @ thasauce, they've got a counter up now.
  11. whoa, i totally forgot about this. i've got one, but it's only a midi, dunno if i'll be able to record by then. =( oh well..
  12. i'm a hand drummer, and i can bust a tune on the melodica relatively well.
  13. will you need help setting up the lighting? i've got a little experience working on them. i'll be getting there sometime thursday night, i think.
  14. dpally, i went last year and basically just bummed a room the entire time. you'll find a room to sleep in, don't worry.
  15. news update: pixie is dumping andy the little white one for larry the big black sexiness. i love how not only was i the first view of that movie, but how tauce basically gives his flute a blowjob. i'm bringing: sax (selmer series three super balanced action alto saxophone, should i bring the soprano? depends on if it fits in my bag, i'll have other mouthpieces for other saxes as well) melodica (hohner soprano melodica) whistle (feadog high d) recorder? (pos from dime store) me w/ voice (pos from jesus)
  16. this was pretty much awesome last year. how many times did he beat you in a row? 25 or so? although tauce and bahamut freezing the tetris attack screen was really classic too.
  17. that's why it was first =)
  18. life of kroze: phonesex, drugs, and some other shit that i forgot.
  19. subbed. check your pm box.
  20. parallel fifths is two voices/parts playing a fifth between them and then the next note is a fifth between them as well. it sounds normal to us (thanks to pop) but it was a big no-no back in the day. take a course in 16th century counterpoint and then tell me that the rules aren't useful for anything but historical perspective (lol). seriously, though, you'd be surprised how much people like beethoven, mahler, schoenburg, glass, and cage - revolutionaries of their time - useed the 'rules' as a basis for their music. it's worth it, i promise. don't forget that the rules i speak of aren't just voice leading, it's scales and progressions and non-chord-tone uses and stuff like that. that stuff is uber important, even if it's just for soloing and the like. YOU'D know that, of all people - SRV, petruci, et cetera - all were/are theory geniuses when it came to stuff like that. do YOU know when to use a whole tone scale? maybe you should find out.
  21. AH. that's a little clearer. we'll use Fdim as our example chord. Fdim (in root position) to a C/E (first inversion) is a nice sound. Note that Fdim isn't really in the key of C, although it is in F# (lol at completely opposite keys). alternatively, going to a C sus4 chord with the sus in the bass, resolving downward, is a nice sound. you can substitute either of these chords with an F# chord to make it a true vii-I cadence, they both have distinctive and enjoyable sounds. if you're looking for something within the key and made specifically for it, your typical vii6-I is fine. going from our Fdim in first inversion (Fdim/Ab) to a I64-V7 figure in C (C/G, G7) to the true root, F#, is a slightly more involved way to fool with the key and your ears. harder to pull off, due to inversions and the like. need more? edit - another nice one is going from our Fdim/Ab to A major, A minor, I64-V7-I in D major, or Eb/G works well too.
  22. don't get me wrong, i wasn't saying that if you write parallel fifths bach would kill a kitten, or something. what i WAS pointing out is that you CAN'T really write parallel fifths until you understand WHY they were 'bad' in the first place, four hundred years ago. well, yeah, you can, because there aren't really any rules nowadays - just general guidelines that help make things sound pleasing. but understanding it makes it that much better.
  23. oh god, i can't wait. this is gonna be awesome!
  24. heck, the rules were created so that they could eventually be broken - but it's knowing when you're breaking those rules and why that makes it better.
