ye me too been rocking cubase/nuendo/logic for a while now but from a work flow/sketch pad/speed perspective being able to chuck the mpc software,komplete + waves all within reason floats my boat
be interesting to see how well its going to deal with multiple instances of ram and processor hungry vst/audio channels and midi out though
turns out its not too shabby at all, doesnt seem to like output substance and signal for some reason, which is weird because it runs fine with other cpu & ram hungry libraries
can do some interesting shit with it hooked up to reaktor
but don't forget before he was all hip with his clever chords he wrote a whole ton of patriotic oom pah pah (some of which was quite good)
sounds nothing like the stuff he's known for
then he read i think schopenhauer and realised that life was basically shit and a long series of miserable episodes without release or salvation
tore up his manuscript for the ring cycle and wrote the whole thing again including approximately 2 perfect cadences in a piece that lasted like a fucking week or something
one of those perfect cadences probly had a fuctup note in anyway / spanner in the works
I think if he was alive today he'd be a contemporary of squarepusher and would be signed to warp , releasing utter cack that for some reason charlatans fawn over even though its a recording of a microwave oven pinging incessantly for 3 hours combined with wack 80s ragga samples
or maybe he'd be a stablemate of Actress, churning out incomprehensible "techno" nonsense that people feel under qualified to call out as just basically shit as they are unable to form their own opinions without the help of an "edgy" music blog
