wtf?

He's the muffin of leisure
not the muffin of action, say
he plays the accordion
even though it is so gay

Leisure Muff
not so tough
Muff muff muff

Thats my song to you. perhaps you could set it to some beautiful accordion?

leisuremuffin · Post by **leisuremuffin** » Tue Jan 06, 2009 6:38 pm

sure!

i'll get right to work.

i'll back it with accordion and pitched down samples of gagging throats.

and yeah, morgan packard is really good. He's also doing some really interesting stuff in nyc to try to revive the electronic music scene beyond the standard dance stuff. if you're in new york, and you like electronic music that is out of the box, you must sign up for the mailing list at http://www.finediving.org/

they don't happen very often, but when they do it's guaranteed to be amazing.

tough gig trying to do the revival thing with accordion though...

I mean it's like banjo or cowbell in terms of it's current popularity.

Thats not to say someone can't do amazing things with it but like bagpipes...it just grates after a while

are you crazy?

accordion is really smooth and beautiful. And incredibly expressive. I don't find it grating at all.

i feel like you really have to search for the nuggets now.

also, make sure you take a break from the forum every once in awhile. I've been gone since christmas which is a big step for me.... :0

of course there isn't really anything up that i'm jazzed about, but that's life. I'm just procrastinating tracks i have to work on anyway.

I missed you.

It was a lonely Xmas.

This forum can be broad-minded, but asking about accordions is beyond the pale...

this always was one of my favourite jokes!

I tried to learn accordeon, it's hell. You can't see your fingers, the keys or buttons while you play!

I love accordeon like in brazilean foro-music. With a djembe-like drum, a triangle and an accordeon you can do some really wicked stuff!

it's good to be back

I found two good threads: a live looping one where i'm sharing my experience from a gig this weekend with live looping

A "quit smoking" thread. It's nice to see people care about each other and cheer em on to do something good.

The most interesting thread i read yesterday was discussing Dithering.

Maybe take a break from this forum for a little while and find something more stimulating, check back in a few weeks, or months?

I own Live but could care less about talking about it. I come here to discuss and read about politics and world events.
