Glug Glug glug glug.... thats the plug being pulled on justablip. As one final attempt at meaningfull forum chat b4 thrash turns his website into a Fashion Bug Plus! outlet center, the topic has turned to things I actually know about. Like local celebreties Prince, Semi-knobaa & Har Mar Superstar. Check it out b4 he scrubs the whole lot. Oh, wait, he just did that... ummmm.... you do gotta see this if you haven't b4. http://www.harmarsuperstar.com/ Its funny cuz Har Mar is this shite 70's art-deco mall that i went to as a kid. And now we are discussing it? The music aint half bad. I remember seeing him do mean stevie wonder covers.... On really romantic nights of self, I go salsa dancing with my confusion. - Speed Levitch _________________________________________________________________ Check out the new MSN 9 Dial-up fast & reliable Internet access with prime features! http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-us&page=dialup/home&ST=1

>something that really bugged me about watching the Sopranos on DVD, Tony is >wearing thin diagonal striped shirts (I think) a bunch & you can really >notice a blurryness or something, whatever it is you can tell it looks >really artificial. Somethin' that bugged me about watching sopranos is I found myself increasingly paranoid, looking out windows alot. Also I developed a prediliction for turkey sausage, wich has nothing to do with sopranos but... turkey sausage is good. Best soprano line: Tony to a man sidding in his idline car as he approaches his open window "Hey! Hows the boy?" "What boy?" the man inquired. "The one you're sleeping with." Now thats TV! _________________________________________________________________ Check out the new MSN 9 Dial-up fast & reliable Internet access with prime features! http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-us&page=dialup/home&ST=1

OMG?!! Another one of my hometown homo's. You know, when a band must flee there city of origin to escape heckling inhabitants of said city that says alot. Actually I don't know if that happened but it should have, I should thank them for helping to put minneapolis closing time til 2am though. Ahhh ahh oowww all about chemistry!! *rock* >IMHO Secret Smile is one of their best remixes post Andy Hughes. It has >humor (annoying sounds at the end of the track) and melancholy of the >original. I confess that after that, I became a Semisonic fan as well... _________________________________________________________________ Get a FREE online virus check for your PC here, from McAfee. http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963

<< I contend that you are wrong. >> why you.... i oughta..... no, i might be. but you might be as well. who can tell? << Go to a high end stereo/speaker shop and bring in the same album in a compressed and uncompressed format. I guarantee the people working there (if their worth their salt) will be able to tell the difference. >> or at least, they will SAY they can. like i am going to trust thoe people, who have a vested interest in me agreeing with their statements and thus shellign out for expensive audio gear.... << Same with vinyl and CD......people *can* tell the difference. The range of frequencies the you get with vinyl is greater than CD. >> and i contend that the range of frequency difference is nothign we cna hear, and that rather the difference has to do with the quality of the hardware. here is a comment: music folk do this all the time -- analog v. digital sound. film people NEVER do. you never hear anyone slam DVD as degrading the quality of celluloid film. why is that? << Like I said before, I'm no sonic expert or I would throw in a bunch of numbers to prove this..... >> heh. touche! << I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at here? Playback? I'm talking about the wave form, not what it's played on. >> a waveform by itself is meaningless -- it is only when it is fed through hardware that you get sound, and therefore meaning. the hardware is as important, if not moreso, than the medium. << I don't own an mp3 player (well, I have winamp on my computer) so I'm not sure what the differences are between companies or if one company makes an mp3 player that sounds better than another. >> do you have a DVD player? many ll DVD players made in the past 3 years will also play MP3 CDs. << Again, some people use and love mp3. It is great for storing large amounts of audio to carry around. It's convenient. However, I don't like lossy formats and try not to use them whenever possible. That's just me, though. It's my opinion... and you know the saying about opinions.... >> fair enough. << FWIW, nobody on my planet likes mp3s....... >> i knew it....

worst remix
by JASON HICKS 04 Feb '04

04 Feb '04

Ok, who agrees that that is THE WORST remix the Orb has ever done? > >That most dubious distinction definately goes to "What goes on in your >mind" on the Aubrey #1 album... i think most will agree. No way I say it's a time between Marathon "Movin'" (man that song is lame) and Dave A. Stewart's (or is it Candy Dulfer? Amazon is confusing me!) Lily Was Here, why on earth the Orb remixed smooth jazz garbage like this is beyond me, I've literally heard the original in dentists offices before. If you're talking about Innersphere- Out of Body "It's like being paranoid, without the fear", I rather like that one. Most ill advisedly sought after remix ever: U2- Numb (Deaf and Dumb Mix?) some of waited years to hear this one, only to find out its a boring wankfest a la late period Autechre, oh well (I assume that was your work kwissy?) sometimes being a Orb dork doesn't pay off. _________________________________________________________________ Learn how to choose, serve, and enjoy wine at Wine @ MSN. http://wine.msn.com/
