Good decision. Kim once said she never wanted to get tattooed because shit eventually goes south as your skin ages. A coupla years ago she did this, though... but they were for other people, so I guess she didn't sell out.

I'm a bit unhinged lately, Soups. (lately? lol)

All apologies for misinterpreting your post, as I could've sworn it was directed at me. Thanks for handling my brashness well. My opinion on nostalgia and personal enjoyment still stands. Some of us grow up listening to classical... others: Insane Clown Posse. You tell me which one is more valid (don't say it).

Please accept this Junior Mint as my apology.

Inner-arm: With Teeth-era logo w/ Pretty Hate Machine colored highlights

It’s 2:37am and I’m at work listening to Complexity 3 (best VA Comp you’ve heard in 2018) whilst I play GolfClash.

Bytor Peltor · 11.30.2018, 03:51 AM

Thought you might enjoy it......a great 4 track EP if you ever come across a copy.

Seriously, Soup Nazi. That was legit uncool of me. I just wanna apologize again, after the much needed sleep/nap I took. I've been all over the place lately and must've let my insecurities get the best of me, and conjured you going against me in my head.

Thanks for being so cool about it.

What's sweet though is now we're closer than ever:

Haha yeah, you can't really see it too well with the lack of lighting in my living room at all... but the NIN logo has these cool highlights of pink and blue... and the Fragile flowers look much more like an oil painting.

My other arm has more work done, including a Bad Moon Rising piece which appeared on Thurston's Instagram last year. Awful pic of me, and forgive my teeth - this was taken right before a long belated trip to the dentist lol. Plan on full-sleeving both arms eventually. Every piece I get has been music related so far. It'll look sweet once I'm Joe Rogan-buff.

Keyboard is solid, nothing fancy - just a Corsair Strafe. I built myself a cool rig in 2015 for video editing/gaming. It's become my everything-machine since, as I run it through a 5.1 receiver w/ some vtg. Polk Monitor 10 loud-speakers for listening to lossless audio. I sold off my turntable/vinyl collection after realizing how great it sounded.

My ultimate goal though is to toss this guy in the basement as it's getting older, and build a newer rig - connect 'em both via a NAS server for all my movies/music. But that's neither here nor there.

............

Cool comp. though. I'm 5 songs in and am ESPECIALLY digging this Wronger track. Wow that's interesting.
What sorta gig has you workin'/golfin' at 2:30 in the morning, Bytor?

edit: this Physique Stuff song is neat too. Is this just considered experimental? I like the lo-fi spoken word and piano (sample?) w/ electronic noise, also the use of stereo. Very, very neat.

I listened to Zooropa again in a car on my way from work yesterday. First time after some 25 years (I remember getting it for Christmas from my brother when I was 12).
I liked it quite much, to be honest. Some crazy shit going on in some songs there.

Bytor Peltor · 11.30.2018, 06:32 AM

I’ve been doing this same 11p-7a gig for the last 28 years......started in the Summer of 1990. I’m certified by the State of Texas and receive my authority from a State Court......and that’s about all I’m going to say about that!

Well, working at night provides opportunity for listening to odd and strange music and I try and savor these opportunities as my retirement will occur in the text two-to-five years.

Oh how I love sleeping during the day!

This comp is the 3rd in the Complexity series......you can see the other two in my last post under the BandCamp thread. Wronger doesn’t appear on the other two, but some of the other artists do......glad to know you’re digging it!

A night shift of experimental music. Sounds chill man.

Underrated but has nothing on peak NIN (1988-1994; 1999)

Loved NIN so much growing up. Will never not at least like them/him/it/whatever

But I think his scores have outshined his album work in recent years.

yes. the sound textures are great!

they’re better than the “songs” themselves

i still like the song for/from the wim wenders movie (i liked the movie too, lou reed was in it) but it’s the least interesting thing in the album—just same kind of stuff they had been doing for years

it’s more like “insert typical u2 song here” in the middle of a bunch of electronic noise/effects/etc

real u2 fans hate this album. for me it’s the actual opposite.

Haha. You kinda took him to task though. I love both of you but that made my jaw drop.
