Just getting into TV on the Radio now. Really good band, wish I had checked them out earlier.

Pfft. That's pretty low-traffic.

It looks pretty difficult to me, but I've never played it. The cool thing about this game is that it automatically creates the tracks for you. I wish Stepmania had something like that. :(

Does the demo version allow custom music?

Also, Chuck Norris doesn't need Audiosurf. He can just go on a road trip and this'll happen.

My friend posted this song, I dunno what it is really. Can't listen right now

Phylum 03-24-2012 04:15 AM

So Stray Cats huh?



Stray Cat Strut, probably the coolest song ever. Embedding disabled on this one, sadly.

Traffic is the number of blocks. With less blocks, they're spaced out and you've got plenty of time to dodge. With more, dodging becomes harder, much more noticeably than speed alone. An average-speed high-traffic track is generally harder than a superfast low-traffic one.

That's really the point: Total freedom. That said, the fact that it's a program inevitably leads to weird anomalies. One of the most soporific songs I've ever heard was a straight-down furious charge.

Yeah, you can play five of your own songs and any off of Audiosurf Radio.

One of the best covers, if not the best cover, I've ever heard... ever.

Mr. Bungle 03-28-2012 10:01 AM

Another great cover:

A friend linked it to me. I do enjoy a bit of STP.

Another great cover:


All I know about Goldfinger is that they did a song called "Ash", which made it very difficult for me to find lyrics for the Ash song "Goldfinger".

Mr. Bungle 03-28-2012 08:52 PM



Some crazy-ass electronica right here.

Phylum 03-29-2012 01:34 AM

I'm playing this with my school's Big Band.



That 7/8 bar works so damn well. I love it.

MeechMunchie 03-29-2012 12:55 PM

I'll keep posting Harvey Danger until somebody likes them.



He was the king of random fancy
An encourageable flirt
He liked to try to put her on a pedestal
Just so he could look up her skirt
But he's changing

And she is nobody's girlfriend
She doesn't mind
Dormant desires which are better kept
Clandestine

He captured her imagination
A brutal vista on the map
She thought she felt her will break
But it was the weather
From a chilling wind to a full-fledged
Cold snap

We will be lazy with our language
And comfortable with our clothes off
We will say just what we have in mind

And she's still nobody's girlfriend
She doesn't mind
Dormant desires which are better kept
Clandestine

The way you want it is just the way it's going to be

[Guitar solo]

That's the way you want it
It's just the way it's going to be
The only version you'll see
Me - Oh, I still see the -
Broken up, broken down
Broken up, broken down

If you don't listen to the entire 3rd movement, listen at least to the first 6-7 minutes. If you can't even stand that, skip about four and a half minutes in, to where the mellow section is. Some fucking fantastic theme development there.

Phylum 04-02-2012 02:15 AM

So, Pet Sounds.

I've listened to it on average 3 times per day for the last 2ish weeks and once a day for 2 weeks before that. It's fucking amazing. I can't believe how much I enjoy it. I've never heard an album like this. There's something special about all of the songs, the musicality in the writing and performance is unlike anything else. I could crap on about each song for hours.

God Only Knows has so many clever things in it. The 3 bar chorus uses a bizarre chord progression of I - V - vi. The chorus consists of an imperfect cadence, followed by an interrupted cadence. It builds suspense so that when it finally resolves back to chord V at the end there's an astounding sense or arrival. The use of Cdim -> E as an almost perfect cadence in the verses is amazing, too. The songs are full of little things like this.

I have mixed feelings towards Sloop John B. In some ways it feels out of place in the album about love. On the other hand it breaks the melancholy. There's a fucktonne of melancholy in this album.

Everyone should buy this album.

i fucking love this song. then i got stoned and found it to be the most hilarious song i had ever heard. it's not the words, it's the trumpets sort of going "plub" every now and then. it just makes me go into hysterics. i'd love to get paid for going "plub" every now and then in a song. unfortunately this isn't the exact same version i listen to, but it's close enough.



watchoo say?

hit the road, Jack

plub

and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more

hit the road, Jack

plub

and don't you come back no more.

that's how i hear it now. it's like one of those optical illusions; once you see the faces, the vase fucking disappears. goddamn.
