Yeah, shame the best moment(s) came in the first set. Actress didn't show up, Laurel Halo verged between bizarre and downright bad (amateur ambience and average 4/4 beats), Cooly G took out the beats and did live singing whilst Scratcha was just buffooning around.

Still, an hour and a half of Burial is not too shabz for a Wednesday night.

"Awesome! too bad it was proved humans cannot hear the difference between 16bit and 24bit audio."




What a total load of bullshit once again. If this was the case, why do all recording engineers opt for the highest bit depth their hardware can record at? The answer: because you can hear it, and if you can't you're deaf. Given your so called inclinations towards audio appreciation and fidelity, this sort of ignorance coming from you is ironic...



...wait no it isn't actually.



Perfect example: Listen to your next fadeout with good headphones. Ever noticed how as the audio lowers there is a "threshold" where it suddenly cuts out? Well done! You've just reached the least significant bits of 16bit audio. You get the same effect with 24 bits too, but its far less likely you'll hear it because of your equipment's inherent noise floor. You have ~64,000 possible "levels" with 16bit in comparison to ~16,000,000 levels with 24bit = about 256 times greater resolution. So yeah, fuck off with your dumb ass pseudo-intellect.



"Sometimes the vinyl sounds different because it's mastered differently"




That's because it has to be mastered differently if you want to maximise the format. The machines used to cut vinyl are high current electromagnetic transducers, with specific input and frequency content requirements that aren't equivalent to those found on your standard CD master. However, most of the time, due to financial constraints, the CD master and vinyl master will be the same, which is somewhat pointless. It's a common misconception that simply whacking in the CD master file will yield a superior result on vinyl, just because its "vinyl" and it will take care of the rest. The vast majority of releases found nowadays on vinyl can be assumed to have been not mastered for the format, and therefore, not necessarily as good as they could be.



You know what, I could go on, but you aren't worth the effort right now. Back to mixing.

3rd song is pretty good. First two are probably good if I want to fall asleep, third one is best for Haunted Houses :P

I possess this really neat attribute known as "individuality." I hear scientists are still studying this human anomaly.

"Individuality" is a pretty gay thing to begin with, so anyone who speaks of it will come off gay.

Yeah, also considering bumping this up to a 5. The only thing really holding me back is the fact there is only three tracks.
