Materials and techniques come into play - Turner would rub whitewash over his paintings - a subtle beauty

Context is everything. What you're doing at the time you hear something. Who's there. What's just happened and/or been said. A song that to this day will instantly bring me to tears is "Bright Eyes" (from Watership Down). The reason being that it was on the radio at the moment I was told my Nan had ...

Beethoven - remember that guy - always borrowing Bach stuff - and German folk tunes - eclectic Ludwig - we love em -- and Ed Sheeran apparently.
I think Ludwig must have had a time machine and went forward and nicked a bit of Thelonious Monk - opus 111

DAWs are amazingly stupefying - and a gift from god - Outboard is also very cool - sweet cosmos forgive me

- in the future -- when bots will deliver and build these things for us

i know it is against the diy ethic

- unapologetic elitist audio gate keeping - outboard rocks - hell yeah!

I know you did not mean that Martin

Here is Steve Winwood 'doin it' with two mics and a fire

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoSn2Y-b6wI

As mentioned - Over the shoulder and close mic that guitar too- and blend that gently with the vocal/guitar mix - might bring you home

Product is art - they are not indifferent.
When it comes to 'mixes' - there is craft. Some skilled - some not so.
I'm hearing excellent pop production --- just a sweet sweet fantasy baby - Pops not dead yet.

what i'm sayin - i will add DGL to the lyric

My Santa list was ignored - not even a lump of coal - very disappointed. I'm writing a song about the bastard . Kill Santa

5 hours without interference - joy . It could be mobile devices - your mobile devices

'The Love You Make' - by Peter Brown -- good read.

Thanks for the link [ACCOUNT DELETED] - super smart guys no doubt - legacy of smarts - ssd is fast now

Christian is a 'head the ball' i love it. Lyndhurst Hall is a truly lovely space for recording hall - strings float . I'm thinking what Hansa Tonstudio and Tony Visconti did creating an plugin enviroment where you can move the mics around - it was called T-verb. Lyndhurst Hall i think should try ...

It's so simple - do what Mom says

I wish i was in Spain sometimes - - loud vids all night long next door- and seagulls in Dublin - noisy bastards - love em - comfy ear plug are the future of city livin = or Wicklow where i live now - sweet and green - CROWS! Environmental interference with the artist - We will have to live with it ...

If i'm talking on a balcony and club is close by - on an omni - i will hear the bass from that club - get an omni.
If you need evidence -- 0k i know - the others are correct - your going to need an officer of the law - or move.
but with a good vid - and an omni - you might impress

Of course - Virtual RAM -- whizzing disks - How could i forget? Thanks MOF.
In the past we would say that you can never have to much RAM. However, considering how fast I've heard SSD virtual RAM is - i think i'd keep the 400 bills.

I gather that if the M1 runs out of ram it can use the SSD as ram. I'm not sure if this is a new thing. - brilliant none the less.

What OneWord wrote . Cool vocal - cryin out foe some punch The vocal needs to be 'closer' clearer if you will - the voc effect is not helping i think - id try an ambient reverb on the vocal and bring the level up front - compress sensitively - be brave. Clarity is the word. Dont forget the bass - we ...

Artists are a reflection of time - even if they do not intend to be.
We are part of 'now' . Now is flux - it is reflected.
We might have said -- break it down -- rip it up --
Reality is rough - Francis Bacon paintings are priceless now -- Truth is ugly too

Never too much - quite a bit of not enough well done.
Vangelis -- Yamaha CS-80 ... Lexicon 224 digital reverb - into another 224. Expensive and delicious excessive reverb -
