Melbourne Beats

a1studmuffin

The latest technology to come out that beats both plasma + LCD in lifespan, power use + heat, contrast + clarity + colour is laser TVs. I'd never heard of them until I saw one recommended in Time Magazine's Top 10 Gadgets List for 2008 and did a bit of reading up them... Mitsubishi have just release...

@funkyfarm: Cabs are pretty damn cheap in Melbourne so it's not a huge deal to get a cab for a 10-15 minute ride... more so if you share with friends. I couldn't believe it in London when I wanted to go from north (Shoreditch) to South West (Putney) and the going rate was 40-45 quid, ie. AU$100. In ...

I think they said someone snapped the photo right as it happened though... unavoidable really, it's like being a celebrity and having your tit pop out for a second at the beach... sure you can tuck it back in quickly, but the Paparazzi damage is done.

Fucks sake... this is going to be like one of those big anxiety nightmares I have "WHERE'S THE ZEBRA ROOM? I ACCIDENTALLY THE WHOLE DJ SET!!!" "What? Zebra room? Boy, I don't even know if there IS a zebra room. There is a door over there that takes you back into this room infinitely t...

couldn't care less. as long as whoever is playing twists nobs in a dramatic fashion and pumps the air with their fist, then then can plug their midi controller into their ass and drum machine into their cock for all I give a shit. actually i'm pretty sure thats how you make dubstep.

a1studmuffin

Definitely a step in the right direction for Nokia, but geez they need to work on their interface design (software + hardware). Though personally I'll never trust them again after these crimes against humanity: http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/images/NOKIA_7280.jpg http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/ima...

Great work guys, solid release!

Smile On Impact: I thought it was just media hype too, but I looked up the Victoria Police statistics for Melbourne's metropolitan violent crime rates and they actually have risen quite a lot in the last 2 years in particular. No idea why exactly, and I'm sure it's probably isolated to particular ar...

Yeah, technically they ARE outputting a 1080p signal, but the actual PS3 just renders a 720p image and upscales it. Cheeky.

a1studmuffin

There's no easy way, and more often than not, the hard ways sound shit too. The best thing to do is to get them from the source.

a1studmuffin

Yeah that blows, I'd expect at least 2 hours.

Still, Mike Callander's sets make me happy in my pants.

Is that stoopid internet filter thing still going ahead? yes :? I highly doubt it'll get past the pilot stage, as their system just doesn't work like it's supposed to: http://www.efa.org.au/2008/07/31/efa-says-filtering-trial-a-failure/ Past attempts at ISP filtering have been dismal failures as we...

Yeah, +1 to being all about the music... I don't care if it's called breaks, tech-funk, or fucking disco bass (L^O^L, I'm looking at you Stantons)...

a1studmuffin

Sorry I meant to say superficial/false altruism... something designed to make sponsors look good and volunteers feel good about themselves, not so much about helping the homeless people... I realise this comes across as incredibly cynical, I don't mean it so strongly... but it just whiffed a little ...

a1studmuffin

Not all, but the majority. There's a small percentage of homeless people that are there by choice or due to external circumstances, but for the majority, their illness is what causes them to be homeless. They're incapable of looking after themselves due to something that's out of their control. Comb...

a1studmuffin

What a cock-up! Hope it gets sorted too... can't see anything in my account at the moment but will be keeping a close eye on it.

a1studmuffin

Okay, was probably being a bit harsh calling it superficial altruism, but I'm still a bit confused as to how a homeless world cup is going to help the homeless overcome their mental illness so they can integrate back into society again. Of course it's a great idea to give homeless people hope and so...

a1studmuffin

Nah, no way that'll stand up in court...

a1studmuffin

Hmm, well it looks like a great idea, but aren't the majority of homeless people actually homeless because they're mentally ill? Wouldn't that put a crimp on the whole "discovering a new inner self and repairing the damage in their lives" thing? Not meaning to come across as a pessimist, b...

When Lee Coombs came out the other year with this Tech Funk, it still sounded like breaks tho to me. Anything to not say the actual word breaks I spose, apparent dirty word :wink: Breaks isn't a dirty word! I just had my first vinyl release last month, and guess what it was? Breaks! :) http://image...

a1studmuffin

Yeah I'm 100% with you on that. You might be right on the bubble theory, time will tell!

a1studmuffin

Hey why don't guy's wax their faces? Heheh... I don't think you *could* wax facial hair on most guys. If you've got soft skin and hardly any facial hair (like a lot of asian guys do) you probably could, but for most caucasian guys I think the facial hair would just be too dense and you'd end up rip...

a1studmuffin

but yeah, not many people out there, and definately a sign that the bubble may have burst with these big city outdoor gigs. Ya reckon? I reckon it was just about the weather, that was seriously one of the worst weekends in Melbourne I've seen in a long time. Look in Inpress, there's at least 10 hug...

A1 some people aren't as smart as you dude. I've slept with guys who thought they were porn stars, trying to emulate what they saw. And I'm pretty sure there are a couple guys here who've slept with girls who acted like Ritzy Sparkle in the sack. But that's because they're wankers in the first plac...

Look, it stands to reason that porn requires a definitive view of the pussoire mid coitus. Thus, less hair is necessary. I'm pretty sure the cart came after the horse on this one. You're only talking about the hardcore stuff, and as autumnleaves pointed out, in Japan the hardcore stuff is au natura...

a1studmuffin

I totally agree that porn has created a 'need' in the market for triple xxx waxing. Oh come on, I reckon that's rubbish - porn merely reflects what is fashionable in our current society. If porn was really so influential, we'd all be wearing sneakers while we fucked, chicks would only like it up th...

Sure was! I woke up and unplugged all my expensive electronics from the wall outlets just in case, that thunder was sounding mighty nasty.

it was like everyone who worked in call centres in melbs found away to make easier money! LOLz! I think for me (and probably other people too) Abby Winters stood out so much because it's 100% aussie beef - home grown porno, just like mum used to make (lolz). It's not often online that you stumble a...

a1studmuffin

well i think the rapid and massive increase in pronographic imagery in all works of life must have driven trends like this, and changed attitudes to what is normal in sex. 'the rise in raunch culture'. That's not a valid explanation - pornography could still be just as rife today even if all the gi...

a1studmuffin

I always got the impression that Abby Winters were trying to do porn a little differently from everyone else. They're not as niche as Suicide Girls, but the general vibe I got is that they're definitely trying to make their content seem a lot more real and amateur, but without compromising the produ...

LOL... let's write those values out just so it's clearer:

USD = 1.00
ZWD(3rd) = 30,000,000,000,000.00

Workshop in the CBD are still pretty cheap. $5 (local) bottled beers and $5 wines. If they can do it, why can't other bars?

Good work Nick, I'd be interested to hear how long this took you and how painful (or fun) the process was.

a1studmuffin

One other thing to be weary of in terms of leaking (although I think DJ promos are where the leak would most likely have happened) - how did you send the tracks to the mastering house? Sites like sendspace, yousendit etc aren't that secure. The safest way is by private HTTP/FTP.

a1studmuffin

Yeah his Frisky track is awesome too, dat boy got some serious success ahead of him!
