i don't think Steve would approve. I read somewhere that he's totally against mp3s |
Me too, he's very defensive of his music, if he were to read this thread and he found out, you could be sure he would track you down and disembowel you.
I haven't had the punk remix off repeat yet. |

mr hamster guy needs to learn how to use compression, EQing, panning, etc...
and he needs to use better samples because his samples suck ass
and for the zombie nation song, there is way too much delay and reverb on the main synth which makes the whole mix too muddy...
other than that... OMG AWESOME TUNE!! :eyes: :crazy: |

| the toasted cheese mix took about 4 mins using basic fruity 30sc with default samples, it's not 'meant' to be like that :rolleyes: |

Steve Hamster is my hero. Without him, my life would be nothing. He is my infinite source of inspiration and motivation. This fine young man has given me so much joy through the years. He is truly outstanding. A true hero of modern society.
I love him so much, I have dedicated this beautiful poem to them:
Every day, whether we realize it or not,
we choose one of two stars to guide us,
a star as ephemeral as our life,
a star water can wash away. One star
is made of packed sugar, the other
of packed salt. Water melts both.
If we choose the star of sugar
we will follow all the sweet things
of the earth, the candied surfaces
that glisten, reflecting a honied light.
If salt, we will go the way of the seas—
restless, tossing broken dolls
and the timbers of drowned ships
onto everyone's shore.
The way of salt
is the way of sorrow and loss,
for salt seeds every tear
before it blossoms, just as death
seeds every birth. Salt is the pillar
erected to those who have looked
when they were warned not to.
At night the star illuminates our sleep,
yet before dawn it is washed away,
so that every morning we must choose again.
The poor choose the star of salt.
They break it into pieces, grind it up,
and eat it with their rough bread.
Salt is the only star in their heaven.
It is no choice at all. Invariably
the rich choose the star of sugar.
Under its light they build roads
that pass the shanties of the poor
and lead to gingerbread mansions.
I choose the star of salt. I follow it
into grocery stores and factories.
The cashiers and barbers watch me,
and the steelworkers and foreign pickers
bent over shovels or rows of lettuce.
They are silent, brooding, distrustful.
Every morning I choose their star
because it is my star also,
because it is the rich man's star,
although he doesn't know it, not yet.
Every morning I choose this star
because the salt grains hiss
on the shore as the sea washes up
the ground bones of the starless dead.
For those who aren't into poetry;
The salt is a metaphor for the cycle of the beautifully composed Electronic Dance Music at it's best. The essence of salt and the way it plays an important part of our everyday lives, can be compared to the importance of everything being checked to absolute perfection all around, the only way of getting the complete experience, and enjoying it as the finest piece of art. Life is beautiful.
It should also be mentioned that the ocean and the sky, in the poem, is an indirect reference to the masterful synthwork, it not only symbolises it wonderfully, it also bears the hidden message of how everything within the synth must be tweaked and perfected to the last minute to gaurentee maximum satisfaction for everyone to enjoy.
"Every morning I choose their star
because it is my star also,"
...is a beautiful reference to the rough MP3 "sharing" situation today, and a superb expression of reversed psychology. Because, we know that, no matter how much we want Steve to act human, and share his art with us, he can not do it, for he can not let his art leave the be insulted by some would be cool guy encoding it into an mp3 and spreading it around the net with a complete lack of any payment for giving the world such beautiful music. We can just try to forget, and realize that, this is how life is meant to be. He is a GOD, and we are not! He is a HERO. The source of insight.
Steve Hamster - the greatest hero of my life. I will always worship him. He is not human, he is so much more. Words can not describe my passion. I know many people feel the same.
Respect to Steve. |
