Haha thanks Mic! Been a minute, eh? What have I missed?
Damn we just can't seem to get out schedules worked out can we.Nice! I've been around, but on ilovefuzz. So I've caught a couple of the awesome things Corey/Nick have been up to.
Not much to report here. I dropped the Sunn Concert Bass for a Plush 1060s. So I'm running that into a Sunn 215 and the Peavey CL400 into the Ampeg 810. ALL T00BZ, maaan. Infinite Flux is doing pretty good. We've been working on some new tunes. You should come out to the new Frontier next Saturday. We're opening a killer show with Hobosexual, Ancient Warlocks and Mos Generator.
Any Infinite Flux recording in the works?
Gonna do some recording today, actually. Sadly we lost nearly all of our recordings a couple weeks ago when our computer's HD took a fat poopie, so we're starting again from scratch.
I have no idea how to build drum tracks.
Tony, if you missed it, preferences > classic mode makes the site looks slightly more familiar.
I will say that being able to "follow" each other makes it was easier to bomb other threads in unison.
My drum programming capability is about on par with my creative capability on drums. Way better than my physical capability, since I'm years out of regular practice now. So I can power through most stuff, but now I'm writing something that really calls for some drums that are informed by the riffs and so I just have one basic beat running through the whole thing, with some fills. I can nail down straight forward rock stuff and steady beats no problem, but now that I'm working on some actual slower stuff, I want drums that are going to be kind of sporadic and fill up the space between the riffs. I'm hoping if I let it sink in a little bit and then tinker, I'll get some inspiration.
I need a real drummer.
Next time I'm in the bay area, I want to make a point to come and jam with you on drums.![]()
