that'll be a big show, the HQ regulars will love it

Wolfgang Gartner is a bloody good producer, used to produce funky deep house under his real name 'Joey Youngman' and many other aliases - White Collar Criminals, Frequent Fliers, etc - i've got a few of his vinyls

he admits he took the electro house turn for fame/touring/and finance that come with it - but good on him, he's such a good producer, if there's anyone that could just drop one genre and start another, it's him.

one of my fave Wolfgang G trax; called 'Circles' , from the Shapes EP on OM Records - there used to be a Youtube clip of it up, but i couldn't find it to share

just for demo, heres a tune he made under one of his many other Aliases - Mario Fabriani - The Groove Bug

very funky, real loungey, classy small underground club type stuff

hard to believe he's producing the glitchy electro stuff now

^ not a bad tune. Would sound decent on a nice setup

Imagine this on a big setup ---> sorta techy/techno stuff. real real real dark chugging beat

Edited by PREISS

Yeah a little over the top near the end. But I really like the first 3/4 of it. Very dark indeed. real nice bass lines

Heres a small mix I made at a mates the other night. Pretty messy in parts. New tunes tho and alcohol involved :blink: Good fun indeed

I'll only be going for Afrojack. He's done some decent stuff with Laidback Luke in the past, so I wouldn't mind seeing him live.

And, if anyone attended Spring Break this year at the Shores complex (for all you DnB heads), which was a very, very good event... there's another event coming up at the Shores complex:

It's an ooooookay line-up. I might head down just to see Tydi and Van She.

And then, of course, Big Day Out on the Friday. That's quite a week for me haha. I might as well quit my job and just become a festival head.

Oh, and I'd love to attend this:

Rainbow Serpent Festival 2010.

Tech, trance, psy, breaks, ambient, dnb, minimal, prog, glitch... everything you don't normally hear at a normal club.

Basically it runs over 4 days, you camp there and enjoy the festival. It has arts, markets, stalls and a bit of everything. It has a very, very different atmosphere, too.

Epic.

do not like Vocal Chords - Claude VonStroke. they play it daily on Novanation.

I dont mind that track! didnt really think it would get airplay on Nova however. CVS gets a fair bit of attention on Triple J

i gotta get my hands on tickets!!! cant believe the fcker is sold out!!!!!

I thought the film clip was ok and the track had potential but didn't take me anywhere after 6 mins so I stopped before it finished.

fark thats gotta be one of the darkest techno tracks i've ever heard!

I wouldn't consider that real dark. Listen to some British Murder Boys (Surgeon & Regis) for true dark tech.

Perhaps I should have waited until the end. I liked the start but it didn't go anywhere else after that. Could be ok for 1-2 minutes within a mix.

I wouldn't consider that real dark. Listen to some British Murder Boys (Surgeon & Regis) for true dark tech.

had a listen to few BMB tracks on YT - the ones i came across were definitely on the darker side of detroit-style techno, quite cool tracks actually!

but i still consider that other track to be pretty shady; not exactly my cup of tea. The film clip probably made it feel darker :(

lol @ this Merry christmas dubstep style --->

nice dnb tune ------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1S9kKGSias

A tune im working on. Liking where this one is going. lots of tweaking to go but it seems to flow nice already

http://soundcloud.com/preiss/preiss-adelaide-the-big-smoke

^ very nice Craig -

don't know if I was just dreaming, but i could hear some low sub bass in that big smoke track - maybe my poxy little computer speakers & sub here won't spit out those sounds quite well - if there is a very low sub bass line, maybe make it a little louder

- i should re-route my pc output back into my mixer and play it through my big speakers i use for playing/mixing my records

i really want to get a good set of monitors to use with the computer

Yeah mate there is a real low sub line going thru it. Ive played it on my DJ speakers. came out quite well. Maybe just a tiny bit louder would be nice, but too much and it will create a flat line as it will interfere with the other bass running thru it.

deff gotta listen on a big setup. Still aint finished yet, but I will stick with this tune. seems to flow nice

one tune i absolutely can not stand:

woop woop <faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrt>

i really don't understand the masses appeal over this one

same. hes using a lot of different elements. synths from wubstep/dubstep, vocal slowdowns like H-Town 'chopped and screwed' and a really basic drumbeat. Looking at the people in the videoclip kinda explains it all.

    • Pretty much what you'd expect at that power level. Hypergear turbo, long list of supporting mods, full Haltech catalogue, etc.  I'd say this goes for most drivers, suspension is still a dark art for most people. And it's really hard to convince someone how much better their setup could be...  
    • They are what I will be installing. 640s for me.
    • Hmm... From my experience you get about 0.25° camber change per mm of RUCA length change. So, to correct from -2.5 up to less than -1° (or, more than -1° if you look at the world as a mathematician does) then you'd be making 6-8mm of length change on the RUCA. From a stock length of 308mm, that's 2-2.5% difference in RUCA length. My RUCAs are currently very close to stock length - certainly only 2-3mm different from stock. I had to adjust my tension arms by 6mm to minimise the bump steer. That's 6mm out of 210, which is 2.8%. That's a 2.8% change on those, compared to a <1% change on the RUCAs. So the stock geometry already has worse bump steer than is possible - you can improve it even if you don't change the RUCA length. If you lengthen the RUCAs at all, then you will definitely be adding bump steer. Again, with my car, I recently had an unpleasant amount of bump steer, stemming from a number of things that happened one after another without me having an opportunity to correct for them. I only had to change the tension arm lengths by 1mm to minimise the resulting bump steer. (Granted, I also had to dial out a lot of extra toe-in in the rear, and excessive rear toe-in will make bump steer behaviour worse). Relatively tiny little adjustments having been made - the car is now completely different. Was horrifying how much it wanted to steer from the rear on any significant single wheel bump/dip. And it was even bad on expansion joints on long sweepers on freeway entry/exits, which are notionally hitting both rear wheels at the same time. My point is, the crappy Nissan multilink is quite sensitive to these things (unlike the very nice Toyota suspension!). And I think 99.75% of Skyline owners are blissfully ignorant of what they are driving around on. Sadly, it is a non-trivial exercise to set up to measure and correct bump steer. I am happy to show my rig, which involves nasty chunks of wood bolted to the hub, mirrors, lasers, graph paper targets and other horrors. Just in case anyone wants to see how it is done. I'll just have to set it up to take the photos.
    • What do you have in that bad boy ? Ill go with the 725cc since I'll be going with Nistune ( would definitely like more engine protection but Haltech is too far out of reach at the moment... plus, Ill probably have a pretty safe tune as its a daily, not gonna be chasing peak power 24/7 ahahah ). Are Xspurt a safe choice?  Pete's great. He didnt mention anything about traction arm length so I reckon it may be good. When I get some new wheels/tire later down the road I'll ask him about it and get his opinion on em. I heard from Gary that you've got the bilsteins too, are you running the sway bars too? and what other suspension goodies do you have installed or would recommend?
