@Simon - count yourself lucky. I had an intercom fitted so my parents could let me know when it was time for dinner.
I just received the confirmation that I'm no longer a teenager: my mom almost said the word "blowjob" while we were eating dinner.
@RoryAlsop Hahaha.
Protip - make sure the talk button is beyond kicking distance from the bed...
Oops
@RoryAlsop thats actually a frikkin great idea. I'm considering the same.
needs to have a high pitched beep though - to annow them enough when they dont want to come down.
@tylerl Really? Glad to know that I didn't waste my time then.
@Simon always? How could this possibly be topical at every conversation?
23:02
@tylerl oh, it is.
especially with @Simon's mom.
I KEEP SPELLING WORDS IMPROPERLY OR THE WRONG WORDS.
I've been doing this for 2 days!!!
Edited.
"Hi @Simon, help yourself to some peas. Oh, had an blowjobs recently?"
Hahaha.
Not ... typical.
It was a TV show and there was a question about "What's the name of the demon that seduces man to have sexual acts with them?"
23:04
succubus
and that was the answer she came up with?
@AviD - just be aware you may hear things you don't want to. Like if one of your kids has a friend to stay over. And that friend snuck in to start overnight. And their foot knocked the talk switch on and broadcast all noises from the bedroom into the kitchen... Maybe. It could happen.
women?
And in French the answer was "Succube" or whatever and the verb "suck" is "sucer" in French.
So she said she knew the answer because you know, she thought about it.
@RoryAlsop That's awesome.
23:05
I literally facepalm'd.
Is purely hypothetical, obviously
@RoryAlsop And that friend is of the opposite sex, right?
Hehe. Well, that's a funny story to tell.
@RoryAlsop did this happen?
23:06
@AviD It sure did.
@RoryAlsop My parents house had an intercom, and the central unit could be use to turn any room into a baby monitor, so you could broadcast the sounds from any one room into any other. No privacy.
wasnt that an episode on Dharma and Greg?
@ScottPack you would know ^
@kalina What software are you usually using to produce?
cubase
Oh, I have yet to try it. I'm using FL Studio.
23:10
...k
Glad you care.
It is always nice when the other person is very responsive.
You can go back to your gaming.
thanks
My pleasure.
@Simon what happened to dinner?
you ARE the type that ignores your parent ;P
@tylerl Oh... I eat fast.
Well, I'm excited about this mixing thing so yeah, I kind of ran away.
23:14
@Simon yeah, she said that about you.
@AviD Glad that you met her, she's a nice woman.
@Simon did your mom have anything interesting to say during your conversation?
@Simon "this mixing thing"
@tylerl Other than the blowjob thing, I don't think so no.
that's like me referring to computer programming as "that typing thing"
23:16
@kalina I'm making a set and I don't feel professional enough to call it proper mixing or set making.
ok, how did you prepare?
@kalina Well... typing could refer to writing poetry as well.
...or IRC...
@kalina I wore pajamas.
which is practially the same thing
@tylerl well, the mixing thing could refer to cake.
23:17
I assume you selected a variety of tracks and then ordered them from slowest to fastest, ensuring that key progressions between the tracks didn't clash before you started recording?
@Simon we had a lengthy discussion about his attire.
or meat.
@kalina Selected a bunch of track of 128 BPM and now I'm beat matching them.
@AviD you mix meat?
@tylerl if youre frying it, sure. or stewing it.
23:18
if they're all 128BPM there doesn't need to be any beat matching, they're all the same speed
just make sure your phases line up
@kalina Well, the kicks need to match at least during the transition.
Ya.
@Simon beat matching = making both tracks the same speed, they're already the same speed
QQ how would you do that anyway.
Unless you slow one down.
how would I beatmatch?
if they're all 128bpm they're all 128bpm
I don't understand the problem
I mean 150 to 130
23:20
well that's a bit too much of a jump
but you could gently increase the track playing at 130 to 135-140 during playback
and then slow down the 150bpm track to 140
I see.
-20bpm is going to make it sound like your batteries are going flat
Lawl.
most music sounds crap played in slow motion
you should always try and speed up
and jumping between genres isn't a good idea if you're still struggling to make a bunch of tracks that're the same speed mix together
Hence why I'm sticking with 128 for now.
23:22
if you're really just starting out
get two copies of the same track
@AviD I have somewhat fond memories of that tv show. So I refuse to watch it again.
and practice making an everlasting version of that track until its flawless
Everlast. They come up on my Pandora list every now and then.
don't chose a track that you like though
because by the time you've perfected it you will hate the track you're using
@kalina Because I'll end up hating it?
Hehe.
23:23
it's equally as important to know your tracks inside out as it is to know how to get them playing at the same speed
mixing unfamiliar tracks will always sound amateur
with trance though you want to be doing long blending mixes rather than hard drops
@kalina That's what I'm doing right now, blending them together.
a minute ago you were mixing, now you're blending
definitely making a cake
^_^
@kalina But but but, the cake is a lie!
23:27
I like cake.
@ScottPack And I love YOU.
I SWEAR I MEANT TO TYPE LIKE.
@ScottPack Looks like @Simon is going to be baking for a while.
FUCK ME WHAT IS GOING ON.
I was legitimately surprised when I read "love".
This is some Sigmund Freud worthy business right here.
It's becoming quite the unnatural fixation.
it's about time you stopped hiding behind your avatar and portrayed your true feelings
23:30
@DavidFreitag What's unnatural about it?
@kalina But what if my avatar already expresses my feelings?
@DavidFreitag nobody is keeping you here
@ScottPack What @Simon's fixation on you? Oh nothing, right up until you discover him hiding in your closet with a box of tissues.
@kalina Gravity is a bitch though.
stop standing so close to @Simon's mum then
23:31
@DavidFreitag Oh he knows that it's pretty normal to have lovers all around the world when you're as pretty as him.
@kalina REALLY.
REEEEEEEEEEEALLY?
@kalina But why it's so fun to orbit Simon's mom
did I say @Simon? I might have meant @Adnan
I'm getting picked up by some girl who types the word "mom" with an "u".
@Simon what language do you speak?
@Simon Where is she carrying you to?
23:32
@kalina OI THE PROPER ENGLISH MATE, OI.
@Simon oh right, English
hmmm
@Simon guvna
I'm not sure I need to pursue this point
let's do it anyway
23:33
Blimey! Don't qui' now. Nuff said, yeah?
"one’s mother"
OXFORD LOLOLOLOL
@ScottPack Teach me how to dougie.
@ScottPack listn rite, am jus bout ad nuff of yaou alridy
@kalina Lor' luv a duck! So yew really are English! Know what I mean?

just like favourite
23:35
@kalina All i heard was nails on a chalkboard.

behaviour
I dun't think su.
honour

@kalina thats spelt differently.
23:37
@kalina hounor
nah dunt yaou be bawlin' babby
OI let's have a session of Vent, oi.
why is Vent capitalized? Are we talking out something I haven't heard of?
Ventrillo
product name
seriously
23:38
oh. I think i have that somewhere....
they took over when teamspeak sucked.
Now all the cool kids use Mumble
and no, I don't want to hear your stupid voices
@DavidFreitag also sounds familiar.
Mumble is lightyears better than both Vent and TS combined
@DavidFreitag I'm sorry but I'm some sort of Hipster like Terry.
23:40
@kalina OOH. BUUURN!
@tylerl To be fair, my voice is indeed stupid so she has a point.
aynit jus
Add a French Canadian accent and then you know how I sound.
@Simon How can a voice be stupid?
@tylerl oh yeah, totally a 1/2 degree burn.
23:40
@tylerl I'm a poet, man.
@kalina Dunno what's it related to but have you considered you don't actually hear us but at best your inner voice projection of how you imagine we would sound like? What I'm saying is, it's not our voices that are stupid, stupid! :P
@TildalWave I read everything said in chat in a sped up southpark style voice
except @Simon
@DavidFreitag If you need it, I bet @kalina can get you some ice for that.
who is more like beavis
well there's your problem then
23:42
and @Adnan
Oh wait.. .she doesn't have any dishes
who is more like butthead
@tylerl I treat my burns with thermite.
@kalina We now know who your favorites are. Awww yeah @Adnan, did you hear that?
I sound more like Mumbly
23:43
or dumb and dumber, I'm not sure
If we did something like that, you would never hear from me. I'm terribly quiet.
Me le dancing like a beast.
l'dancing!
danse avec moi
Viens chez moi.
non
23:45
Tant pis.
I THINK YOU SHOULD ALL KNOW I AM GOING TO BED
...at some point tonight
Oh, i already know.
You should keep your curtains drawn more often.
@DavidFreitag are you spying on me?
HOW RUDE
also
I live in a field, and thus there is nowhere for you to hide
spying is such a... strong word.
I like to think of it more like people watching.
@kalina In a field?
You taking your avatar a bit seriously?
23:48
@tylerl yes
obviously there is a house around me
but this village has a population of <30
@kalina Don't worry, I'm not outside in the cold.
and it's surrounded by fields
so I technically live in a field
@kalina that would explain a lot of things
there is a field out back of my house
there is a field out front of my house, on the other side of the road
I am in a field.
You're a field.
23:49
@Simon your mum is a field
nou
@Simon OH.. BUUUUUURN!
@kalina So colou?r is your favou?rite word?
@ScottPack regular expressions?
@ScottPack what crazy mindgames is this?
23:49
@ScottPack should be word\?
@tylerl Fair enough.
otherwise "favorite wor" is an acceptiable state
hah, you got told
@kalina One of my idioms is allowing the use of either 'or' or 'our' depending on the cultural mores of the reader.
@ScottPack and equally, I like correcting the obvious misspelling
that would be like telling the French that Canadian French is the correct French.
wars would be declared.
23:51
Strictly speaking my regex engine only allows the use of '?' as part of the expression when following a 'u' in which case "word/?" would be superfluous, but not incorrect.
@kalina Shouldn't that have been "misspellings"?
@TildalWave obvious misspelling is obvious
@TildalWave Mind your own buziness.
@TildalWave and another burn.
blimey
23:52
@ScottPack "buzzness"
I'm about to buy music to get the proper quality
BUY MUSIC, IN THIS DAY AND AGE.
there are roads in this country older than the American government, don't tell us how to spell our words
@ScottPack "buzi" is a colloquial term here for a homosexual btw
@TildalWave Nice
they're in better shape too!
23:53
@kalina Same here.
@kalina Here's a fun fact: the American government is the oldest government on the planet. All others (including british) have undergone transformation since 1776
oh no, are we crossing over into a political discussion?
like religion, they always get me suspended from chat
We've had quite civil religious discussions here.
@kalina Nope, we're just comparing the lengths of our histories.
@tylerl Wrong!
23:55
@TildalWave counter-example?
(you didn't capitalize British)!
It helps that, at last count, we were primarily atheist.
@TildalWave ah.
because there's nothing quite like going into the christianity chat and asking why they devote their spiritual beliefs to fiction, and then comparing them to harry potter fans
@tylerl I mean honestly. Everyone knows it's the English Empire.
@kalina That sounds rather insensitive and rude. Also hilarious.
23:56
@ScottPack the crusades were insensitive and rude
their beliefs prevent them from being hypocritical
too heavy
@TildalWave TWSS
Yeah, I got fat.
so now you're a fat greasy frenchman?
fat guys are really bad in bed
nothing quite like asphyxiation during sex
It's all about the stamina. Or lack thereof
23:58
@kalina does it always have to be the boring missionary?
I'm 140 lbs, everyone calm down.
@TildalWave they normally lack the stamina for anything else
@kalina So's your face.
@kalina So, with how many fat dudes have you done it?
@kalina You don't need much stamina to lay on your back.
23:59
@ScottPack my face isn't insensitive or rude, however whenever I open my mouth that changes
@Simon Such a skinny little thing.
@ScottPack Lawl.
@ScottPack bored of doing all the work
@ScottPack You could be my dad.
@ScottPack it's like i said, "So you can do what a tube sock and a few seconds can do. Bravo"
