Sina Drums Studio
Look into what MAPLESHADE RECORDINGS was doing. Also, Chesky Records. There is an huge fresh interest in vinyl again. Half-speed mastering, cutting…tape project…massive new opportunities in analog are coming back around as collective wisdom has fully explored to finally reveal the thorough awfulness of digitalia on all levels.
Distorted Guitar, Brain Response, and Physiology: A Scientific Analysis
The brain processes distorted guitar as a complex but structured signal. Emotional and physiological outcomes depend primarily on: perception; familiarity; context. Acoustic features (distortion, tuning) influence perception, but do not independently determine biological harm or benefit. Distorted Guitar, Brain Response, and Physiology: A Scientific Analysis Overview This analysis examines three specific domains using established acoustics … Read more
Metalheads Are Happier – Studies
PROMPTS (1) studies showing metalheads are happier than most people, metal shredding heavy metal guitar players; (2) so playing cymatically-water-harmful (and dr emoto) music on guitar is good for the player according to at least 1 published study); any studies showing harm or good for listeners of distorted heavy metal? (3) bio/neuro effets “I’m 64, … Read more
Physics Corrupted at Base Level
This seems like another diabolical, intentional mislead, perhaps to “counter” Protestant-impelled western science. Pierre Marie Robitaille returns to challenge one of the most foundational assumptions in modern physics: that black body radiation is independent of the material producing it. This assumption, introduced by Kirchhoff in 1859 as a mathematical derivation rather than an experimentally verified … Read more
Capacitors on the Curve Tracer
At its core, a curve tracer generates an I-V (Current-Voltage) curve. It does this by actively varying (sweeping) the voltage applied to a component and simultaneously measuring the precise amount of current that flows through it at each voltage step. Sweeping (2-Terminal Devices): For a simple component like a resistor or a diode, the curve … Read more
Retoning Cymbals
Turkish hammering Tall profile makes it ‘jazzy’ Short profile and thin weight = big crash 2-” cymbal (Sabian), began as 2500 grams, lathed down to 1700 grams, add rivets, hammering, buffing Smaller bell = lower volume, more stick definition Each hammerstrike compresses bronze, removes parts of tonal purity Smokier, vintagey, more complex and nuanced
Forget about Anika — This is The Guy, uh, Singled-Handedly Putting Drummers to Shame
One-armed TOM SAWYER! Where there’s a will, there’s an arm. Needs a fitting for attaching tambourine or vibra-slap?
