this morning I am in a mental space that is filled with wonder and delight. mostly because I am listening to Tundra by Squarepusher right now and jeeeeeez that man knows how to work an amen break.

@rocky_point but what if they're only fans.... of professional hockey? lol

Okay well I figured out what I did wrong, I think. I'm still a lil angry tho! This is what I get for neglecting it for a long time and just jumping back on, I suppose.

Me and this MPC Live are bout to fight. I swear I converted my slices to a new program and instead it's all gone. Damn it 😆

Apparently I like 3 Step, in addition to 2 Step, Dubstep, Brostep, Drumstep, Techstep, Hardstep,

@defaultmediatransmitter oh yeah that's it!

@polarity too many? is that close enough to the correct answer? lol

@polarity #wigcoin let's goooooo

@ZoeyBee ye, ye. (I've heard that means yes in zoomer)

Women in music have it hard, even today in 2023. I know it wasn't any easier circa 1970, and she's not the average woman, she's a trans woman. Can you even imagine the shit she had to deal with? She accomplished a lot. She's still alive. Kim Petras is pretty and deserves her award, but damn... people need to recognize. What if someone else made the score for the The Shining? Ick. Gross. Yuck. Nah. Seriously y'all. This isn't fiction, this is real life!

You find my statement hyperbolic? Do some reading. Who took Moog's weird noise making stuff seriously before they heard it make "real music?" Is Bach more real than other music? No. But people take classical seriously. Wendy took Moog seriously. Then she performed Bach with a Moog modular rig. Won 3 Grammy awards. What happened next? Entire genres of music wouldn't exist today if people didn't take notice of what a synth can do. They took notice thanks to Wendy.

Wendy Carlos won 3 Grammy awards in 1970. Instead of erasing her from history in favor of Kim Petras (congrats tho!), someone needs to present Wendy a with a lifetime achievement award for laying the groundwork for what modern music is today. Put some respect on the name of a legendary trans pioneer.

Updated my primary rig last week! Got a new Vaag module to go with BooBass which I have had for a bit already. installing a new module on this 40+ year old rig was not easy but I had experts handle it while I slept. New module is a great fit! I had to switch to an external module for UR1n3 storage for a while, but should be able to access internal storage Wednesday! Looking forward to doing it all in the box again.

If you're experiencing weird issues with your account find the thread on our community discord and let me know. Few folks had an account in a strange state that wouldn't let them log in.

updated the Bitwig Community Funkwhale instance this evening. We're not on the latest. Looks like there had been some fixes for metadata handling (yay) and some search stuff. Update was released Nov 2022 but I guess I missed it :think:

@fusterclucker @defaultmediatransmitter I am gonna go ahead and apply some security patches that have been outstanding and reboot... you know... just in case :think:
