@ansate hippo birdie two ewes!

In our pantry, there is a can of Wolfgang Puck's clam chowder, from a store in Ann Arbor, purchased in 2002. It has moved with us 11 times. I can't explain this joke to anyone (except my wife, she knows what's up), but this can will probably be with me when I retire.

This strudel.cc thing is pretty cool. I keep thinking I want to get back to an old-school Amiga style tracker, but this music-as-code thing seems to be jibing with my head right now.

Spent a lil while throwing together a cover of Stripdown by Agent Side Grinder and I think I got pretty close? Skip around to 32 sec or so, to hear everything going. I'm screwing around with learning the arrange() function, so it's not quite right yet

Here's the original Stripdown, which has been stuck in my head for days

Oh, maybe this is a better link, straight to strudel.cc - it's a HUGE link though. :blobSmileSweating:

@wohali wait... what reality is that?

Meanwhile, in cat jail

The cable on a 15 year old pair of headphones suffered a cat nibble at some point, years ago, and is destined to finally fail soon. I could fix it - I have wire & solder & shrink tubing - but I'm almost daring it to fail now

FWIW, it's a pair of old Audio-Technica ATH-M30 over-ear headphones. I've replaced the cushions twice. They still sound great, and absolutely no shorts or static or cut-outs even with the cat-bitten cable
