ojnkpjg

mustaqila

ojnkpjg

mustaqila

i found a really nice complete collection of shakespeare from the early 1900s at a thrift shop for $2
i found godel, escher, bach for $.79
yalaforge has quit
danbri has quit
g0llum
omg. that video is terrible
MartinRudat
MartinRudat is now known as MingVase
Nyght couldn't agree with g0llum more
tru
Damn. I just read the longest rant about filesharing hurts independent music that I have ever read.
parabelboi has quit
ojnkpjg
where?
tru
http://www.dependent.de/forums/viewtopic.php?t=965 that thread. lot of line-noise. but read the entries by "Stephan Herwig" he is the founder of Dependent Records and have a very millitant view on filesharing.
Nyght
Tru well, it does, unless the band is good enough that people want to go and buy the album (or the people "sampling" already buy albums they will listen to.
But, if the people sharing, like and buy... then it helps independent artists. Just depends on the people sharing
tru
It depends on people actually buys the records they download.
I do
Nyght
Same here
Or they get deleted and never listened to or shared.
tru
but I also download a lot of shit that I listen to a while.
I don't have that strict moral about it. I can for example download mixes and singel edits that I never buy.
but I imagine that those money are not seen by the artist in any case.
inhouseuk
ojnkpjg: are you writing a quick publicity email for the automod nomination?
Nyght
mixes a bit of royalties.. single edits? I'd need an example
tru
but bands I really like: I try to collect all releases.
Nyght
bands I really like? hmm, I have multiple discs and give them as gifts too! :D
tru
Nyght: very common in the electronic music world is that a song can mixed differently on different releases.
Nyght
and trying to buy direct from the artist helps a lot too.
tru
and I some times don't buy all the iterations of one song :)
Nyght
ah, yeah, those I don't believe they get anything from .
my artists aren't popular enough to ask about that. :D
tru
Same here.
it's not like music I listen to ends up on the billboard list :)
Nyght
Ah, I'm thinking Celldweller may. (I hope!) but he doesn't deal with a label so I think that's going to help then
tru
or actually the latest In Flames record (which I have) was on the swedish top list.
Nyght
very cool!
and Cruxshadows (of which I have everything! ) is on the German top Goth list
tru
DAC?
Nyght
and has been a few times.. and I could ask them, but they usually release those remixes when their record label asks for a single.
LOL they can't stand singles.
I think so (dac) I recall them mentioning it, but don't know what it is for a fact tru
yep First- I need to announce that happily Shadowbox went to #5 on the German Alternative Charts (DAC) and #2 on the French Alternative Charts (FAC) this summer. click to see closer view...
so... that's what I meant. :)
tru
yeah, and dismantled just hit industrial music's chart and is #6 on DAC
so I am happy too :)
Nyght
Very cool! so not all of our bands are still "tiny". ;)
catmo
good time of day
MingVase
blargh. ClassicalStyleGuide vs FeaturingArtistStyle ... (feat. Orchestra & conductor: Foo) vs (Orchestra feat. conductor: Foo)
my views on fileshairing.. well there is *alot* of music i'de never hard of, let a lone buy if I never dl it
usually I dl and then buy, or if I don't like it, delete
catmo has 4 cats
and as such, they need food right now
catmo brb
MingVase
cats? hmm... http://www.clanofthecats.com/ ? I think that they're still running photos of cats doing cat-like things rather than the comic...
MingVase wonders if he's going to be doing another bunch of edits to bring the track names for Pavarotti's O Sole Mio into line with what ClassicalStyleGuide says, rather than FeaturingArtistStyle...
inhouseuk: look at the first album. they where soooo cute when I fetched them :)
Nyght
yes Tru.. I don't know how much Russian Blue mine has, but he's got a good amount. (he has two white spots, and that's it, tiny, like little stars) and he hides them like he's embarrassed ;)
tru
:D
That one (which isn't mine) is fully russian blue and totaly crazy.

My kitties have always been rescues.. so, I can see traits in them, but none are pure blooded. (to my knowledge) and while I want badly to get into the breeding of NFCs I don't want to do showing.. so, no one would sale breeders to me
Nyght: all cats whether pedigree or not, just want loving. They don't want to be dragged around shows with hundreds of people staring at them
Nyght
That's my feeling inhouseuk
mustaqila
I think that goes for most animals really
inhouseuk agrees
Nyght
True muz.. as long as you don't add in the reptiles and arachnids. They usually want food warmth and gentle handling (if at all)
mustaqila
Hence the "most" :P But even then, they would desire the same thing, to an extent, just that they'd rather have the affection displayed in another manner
Nyght
strike that about lizards.. I had a lizard that absolutely adored human companionship and I think they count as reptiles.
yeah.. it's just a different kind of affection I imagine.
mustaqila wants a puppy :
Nyght wants two more kitties but my sweety says no. :(
tru
When I stop travel as much as I do now I want a Westie.
Shepard rolls in
mustaqila
Hey Shep
Shepard
hi
Nyght
what's a Westie tru?
mustaqila
Breed of dog I believe, those white little ones
Nyght sees a toy and begins rolling Shep all around
