I've linked my music to the discord before, but here is some of my material:

Well, uh. This is my first time painting

pretty good. Is that Hercules vs the Nemean lion?

It's Samson

@Deleted UserWay to go,Nice! Definitely not easy painting people.😉

Here is a Dialogue (in the Greek sense) that I wrote.

@Attrition in the desert Just finished reading it, nice presentation of a lot of different points of views on politics in the world.

One thing I found interesting was how Publius would be skeptical of Silanius (since Silanius is populares) and doesn't seem to know the difference between Silanius and Cato, although the IE audience would surely sympatize with Silanius.

Another point, I don't know if IE members would all fit into one of these roles, but probably either Publius or Decimus or both, though we want to become Silanius.

Also interesting how I see an axis of Silanius-Publius-Decimus as on the same side, but that's my interpretation and I wonder if there are other axes people could come up with.

@ThisIsChris Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I tried to highlight that a lot of the issues we face today, the Roman republic faced as well. Especially the quasi-class struggle framed by external strife and expansion.

@Attrition in the desert yeah in each class there seems to be a "faith of current system" vs "skepticism of current system". In the upper and middle classes I strongly sympathize with the "skepticism of the system" side, but in the lower class I am probably more sympathetic with the "going along with current system" side, since I think his action is more rational given the (lack of) power he has

@ThisIsChris I think we can learn a lot from class stratification, in that, it's mostly a façade, structured to play us off one another by the elites, much like they did in Rome. Not to say there isn't a natural aristocracy among men, but that we should be aware, at a societal level, of trends in the ever shifting morass of populism.

Here is a short play that I wrote based on Constantine and the war of the four Emperors. (It's not that long)

i might have some kids that I know do this play if it's good 😃

@Deleted User great job I maybe in nned of some artist soon

Listen to smooth by T I D E #np on #SoundCloud

I forgot how simple writing pop/indie music can be...

The bass doesn't cut through with the highs or mids, so it can sound kinda lacking on a cheap phone speaker. It's actually not a real bass either, pitch shifted guitar 😶

Haven’t had a chance to listen yet, but one trick I use when I make basses like that is to apply a multiband compressor to it so that I can apply certain affects such as distortion to the mids and highs without it killing the low end of the bass. This also allows me to keep the stereo width of the bass at 0 while also being able to add width to the mids/highs. If you use ableton I actually made a rack for it that you can just drop into the audio affect rack @Deleted User

oops, just seeing this now

I do use Ableton yeah, not super learned on multiband compression

Can't you achieve something similar to what you're describing by method of splitting your lows and highs into different tracks?

Cause isn't multiband compression basically just being able to control compression amount across different frequencies(bands)?

Just like, a signal chain simplifier?

And I've got a real Bass coming for Christmas 😀
Can't wait to record
