I mean

Yeah, it's a small market, I get that

But if I look on a CD case and I only see Windows system requirements, I assume it doesn't run on Linux

Linux itself was pretty much word of mouth until a few years ago, so using the same for its games made sense

heh, yeah, ok, that's too much :p

(Still happens these days, Botanicula has only Win/Mac on the CD box in stores, but it runs on Linux too...)

They sold Botanicula on CD in stores?

Go figure

I kinda tend to assume only AAA stuff goes on stores anymore

sorry TheLastProject I thought your were a spamming bots :)

(well, I also tend to assume almost nobody goes *into* stores anymore, except to buy used)

I found it in a German Saturn store (which is a technology store)

jesus2099: Nah, can happen, I'm sorry for having a misconfigured system :P

(or for cases like Skyrim here, which just *didn't* sell online because the local distributors are a bunch of retards)

ianmcorvidae: it’s interesting to find out what’s going wrong with track order (it seems OK in foobar’s component)

excuse me

I am hearing the song: nina simons "feeling good"

and how do we call this style of music?

jazz?

soul music?

jazz+ soul?

Death to genres! :p

(they never fit!)

(so, probably no good answer)

OK

so can you recommand a typical soul music on youtube?

I think it’s post gothic gore thrash doom indus fusion

lol jesus2099

tashoutang: I am not very familiar with the style, so a playlist sounds like the better option I guess, there, have http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC15CA15D...

OK

well doom-like!!!

Oh yeah it could be doom-like or dune2-like, I’m not genre expert :)

mmm... interesting, connect the music style with computer game style

well, how to find "super mario" style music???

tashoutang, try http://bandcamp.com/tag/chiptune

o_O

hello warp!

My goodness!!!

chiptune is technical characteristic

there can be chiptunes in ganres ranging from "post gothic gore thrash doom indus fusion" to "post nuclear techno"

or "epic medieval speed core"

Sure, but it's still a decent place to look into :p

or even chiptunes that genre is "post crap" like http://last.fm/music/jesus2099/Chiptunes

lol

ianmcorvidae: now a DR11 album http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=... what’s your highest ? :)

highest/lowset

jesus2099: highest was 14, classical album

jesus2099: lowest was 5, one of my Perfume albums (I think the one I uploaded)

héhé :)

I haven't scanned my whole collection though

of course not

I will not scan more than 2/3 albums now

ianmcorvidae: I think you’re right about saying we should have new DB… should be based on Disc ID and MB stuff, etc…

should at least be linked, yeah

I think we should probably collaborate with the people who set up the existing DB though

yes

if nothing else, perhaps they still have all the logs for the things that have already been uploaded

if so, that's a very nice chunk of seed data :)

though I'm sure most people in this channel would gladly run it on their entire collections, which would probably be even *more* data, so :P

:p

reosarevok: dynamic range

Yeah, yeah

That I know

But I never actually investigated what that all means

someone developed a 1-20 scale, and tools to calculate it

someone made a DB for it, but it's sorta not great

Apart from "loud bad, less loud less bad" :p

kepstin put a page on the wiki about possibly trying to make an integration thing

not so much 'less loud' as 'more range'

it can still get loud, it just should *also* get soft

heh, that's a handy database. the next time people question my sanity for hunting old pressings of albums instead of "remasters", i can point people there...

reosarevok: when all the sound is goddam compressed

then for instance drums have less (no) impact

juhae: haha, nice

reosarevok: like on the radio for instance, you know they amplify (boost) sound maximum while compressing to achieve a wave form that is uniformly 99% (your song has transformed in a black rectangle)

ianmcorvidae: that sounds pretty nice

lol http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=...

even in metal it’s not so good because the drums loose their impact if everything is around same volume

the bass becomes lost in sound too (it’s ok if the bassist sucks)

hahhahaha

I kinda suspect that's artist intent

http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=... <-- yay, 18

lol venetian snares

heh, death magnetic

haha reosarevok

yup

18 *max*, I think 12 is more like it warp

reosarevok: one track is 18

yeah, 12 is the number to quote for that album

the 18 is nice and all, but for the overall link 12 is the number :P

strange I thought DR was the maximum http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/index.php?sort=...

Now, http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=... is probably not artist intent

So, ouch

jesus2099: no, it's the average across the album, pretty much

wtf, 22?

but tracks are more than DR20 I thought it was max DR20 http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=...

wait, 22 shouldn't be possible

Yeah, http://www.dr.loudness-war.info/details.php?id=... has a 22 average

huh

well, I guess they did well then :P

heh, recording of speech

that might explain it

they master their CD with knowledge of this DR scanner bugs or something

ianmcorvidae: explain high score but how explain a score upper than specs’ maximum ?

well, it could be the maximum of 20 isn't a real maximum, but just one that they derived from trying it on a lot of releases

The main problem with this thing is how to ensure people use the right remaster and stuff

I mean, a good amount of stuff I have, I don't really know which edition it is from :p

hahaha

sure

makes a better DB even more necessary

new xkcd is awesome

(as in, totally true)

reosarevok: use the catalogue number at least

jesus2099: that only works if you have the CD and not a download taken from god knows where :p

Or we might associate this stuff with fingerprints instead of MBID ?

reosarevok: don’t submit this kind, that’s all, only real stuff you have and know :) what’s the point in submitting unknown craps (often with tracks coming from singles and albums mixed etc. potentially)

jesus2099: sure, and I wouldn't, but avoiding people doing it might be harder than it should

reosarevok: ah yes, it’s the problem of all user contributed websites (like didcogs, wikipedia, MB, etc.) :/

reosarevok: those crap submits, ach, SHŌRYŪKEN IN DA FACE ! http://static-resource.np.community.playstation...

"submitting crap to databases, that's a paddlin"

what’s paddlin ?

I can’t youtube here :/

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/thats-a-paddlin then :)

ah ok :)

that’s a paddling = ROTATIVELOWKICKINDAFACE
