It is OK to use an admixture of analog / digital if you're doing something creative but really, you should stick to a genre, even if it's a micro genre, so you know what kind of gear to use.
I heard a guy used a COMPUTER ONLY SET UP to do a fidget house record and it blew my mind because fidget house can only be made on digital outboard gear, as everyone knows.
God help you if you are doing ambient because the only gear for ambient is a field recorder and a delay pedal. Everything else is not ambient but some other bullshit entirely. Check Wikipedia if you don't believe me, too lazy to paste link.
I mean, you definitely will get a better deal online than locally now, but it doesn't have that "local" feel. The hands of all the locals have touched it lovingly and perhaps even shared in it in a sexual manner ala Corganesque coffee shop style.jrfox92 wrote:ITT: actualidiot tries to fight ILF and ultimately creates a discussion about US agriculture.

Waterboarding, ripping out fingernails, sleep deprivation....nah....just sit a person in a room, and for a week straight just put the Animal Collective catalog on a loop. They will tell you everything you want to know, or, they will be begging for death.spacelordmother wrote:If Animal Collective plays a free show in the woods and I'm not there to hear it are they still so so so fucking awful? I would say yes.
This is relevant. Not my fault if you can't hear it.

The most beautifully awful thing you'll see all day is right here, right now.
