    Irdial-Discs downloadable catalog

    So I found this several years ago when reading more about The Conet Project, and I remember it about once a year. It might be of interest to some people here. Basically, Irdial-Discs operates under an open content, or free music philosophy, which seems to be modeled somewhat after the GNU...

    ok now that my can rig is where i want it i need to rise to a new level of sounds

    If you like piano, check out Abdullah Ibrahim. I don't know much about him, but I picked up his latest album, "Senzo," recently, and it's an excellent album. I'd like to know more about it, because it sounds like it was recorded in one long take. Each song runs into the next before you're even...

    help! need to replace silk screen on grado's

    I always thought the preferred replacement material for those screens was pantyhose. I don't know how well it works, since I haven't used it before, but I plan to on my K340s.

    Singles Soundtrack (Heart - Battle of Evermore). I ran across this disc last night and hadn't heard it in years. Some really good tracks on here.

    What do you think about while listening to music?

    I have to say all of the above, and a lot of times it depends on why I put the headphones on in the first place; whether I'm taking a break, or listening to something specifically, or for a specific purpose, etc.

    Help with Windows XP (DOS), please?

    the recovery console works a little differently than a standard command prompt in XP, with limited commands, and it may also may make what access you have to the HD read-only. I don't remember that for sure, but it wouldn't surprise me. here's MS's page for the recovery console with descriptions...

    something you don't eat?

    beets, liver, and some really stinky cheeses. I've tried, especially for the cheeses, but these are the only three things I don't like to eat.

    Toughest headphones?

    A friend of mine has been DJing for some 10-12 yrs now, and he swears by Sony MDR-V6s. He described them once as the Technics SL-1200 of headphones; consistent, reliable performance and built like a tank. I've never owned a pair personally, but I've listened to his, and they felt very sturdy and...

    Pronunciation of Aenima??

    I wondered this same question for a couple of months after the album came out, then decided it was dumb to make up words with vague or ambiguous pronunciations/meanings and have just called it "enema" ever since. I don't really get names like that, which have no real connection, other than...

    Hip-Hop/Rap Fans - Whats your fav song?

    Common - I Used to Love H.E.R. Even though it's been done so many times since, when he gets to that last line, "cause who I'm talking bout yall is hip hop," I just smile every time because the whole track is so clever.
