Bait & Switch Supreme was the unusual song I wrote this week. On the constant Internet/ Phone / Streaming service Bait & Switch, where the service you signed up for, now has advertisements, costs more while providing a worse service and they steal everything you create to feed their AI systems.
Seems rather cynical, but that is the place we are today. I have to shake my head at all the tech companies that sacked 1000s of their programmers to replace them with AI to save money, now find AI costs more!
Did the music at 140BPM, wanting a high energy rock guitar feel thing. First version had stand in lyric of "hello how you doing." It is a non standard structure made of 8 bar sections, where an 8 bar instrumental section is followed by an 8 bar vocal verse. I think these are Instruments with vocals rather than "songs". No one cares what I do, so I do what ever I want 😁
Mattias IA Eklundh was the inspiration for me doing this kind of thing, my own way. Even if my stuff is musically unsophisticated and only ever in 4/4, I do ALL of it and the animation/comics too. 😊 Some people are really into the technical gymnastics of the playing of the likes of Dream Theater, but I like my stuff to SAY SOMETHING!
Yesterday, went to make a phone call on my Rakuten Android phone on the platform before catching a train and the call app first put up a blocking popup to "WANT TO UPGRADE YOUR PLAN NOW?" It didn't used to do that. I am sure I will go to render audio in REAPER DAW in the future and MICROSOFT will make you watch a 30second video commercial first before you can press the render button! Guitar is my Ibanez GIO fixed bridge 7 string. Love the tuning and stability now, but that was terrible till I used a set of NUT FILES to correct the plastic nut slots. Guitar sounds all free NEURAL DSP MODELLER vst and EQ.
What the REAPER DAW project looks like:
The Megaphone effect at start and end has more low end than I used before, just to make it less harsh sounding.
I used to fuss about the mix and mastering in years past but not now. Check it is frequency balanced in SPAN in slow mastering mode, and the LUFS level is where I want it is all I do now. Most people will see it as a SHORT on YouTube on earbuds. Nothing else matters.
Sure the Philosophers versions of the lyrics will not encourage views from the POPCORN BRAINED We can be contacted at: https://www.artandtechnology.com.au/ Lyrics (English & Japanese): Bait And Switch Supreme Always out to win, The Algorithms Spin Terms and conditions have changed, All you posts are claimed Always out to win, Trapped inside this game Marketers are here, The warning signs are clear. Always out to win, Grifters and their spin Selling you the dream, Everything is a scheme. Fakers on the screen, Bait & Switch Supreme Algorithms spin, Everything is a scheme. Always out to win, Grifters and their spin. Always out to win. Always out to win. ---- 究極の「おとり商法」 常に勝利を狙い、 アルゴリズムが紡ぐ 利用規約が変わり、 あなたの投稿はすべて奪われた 常に勝利を狙い、 このゲームの中に閉じ込められて マーケターたちがここにいる、 警告のサインは明白だ。 常に勝利を狙い、 詐欺師たちとその策略 夢を売りつけ、 すべてが罠だ。 画面上の偽者たち、 究極の「おとり商法」 アルゴリズムが回り、 すべてが罠だ。 常に勝利を狙い、 詐欺師たちとその策略。 常に勝利を狙う。 常に勝利を狙う。
Of course the Philosophers Plato, Aristotle and Socrates spoke Ancient Greek. But if they wrote these lyrics in English it could be like
Always out to win, Trapped inside this game"
As said by Plato:
have brought forth from your mind is
now claimed as their own trophy.
The warning signs are clear.
Always out to win, Grifters and their spin"
As said by Aristotle: "The rhetoricians of the market are
upon us, and the portents of their
arrival are unmistakable. Driven by
a relentless pursuit of victory rather
than truth, these sophists employ
their art solely for deception and
private gain."
"Selling you the dream, Everything is a scheme.
Fakers on the screen, Bait & Switch Supreme"
as said by Socrates
"They offer you a phantom of the
good life, yet it is but an illusion, a
grand deception. Look closely at
those who project their shadows
upon the wall; they are but merchants
of false realities, masters of the
bait and switch, substituting true
wisdom for a fleeting, superficial prize."
Other Things
Did a 4WD truck illustration for an engineering company and yet to get feedback on it and the concept for a pump on skids that goes with it.
4WD tires are tedious, but I do have a process now, after many years of doing them. It involves doing the face on view using the CAD like CorelDraw copy rotate and place functions. Doing them first makes the rest of the illustration a much less tedious affair.
Out to the Cat Trimmer Friday again. Every 2.5 months and the 5th time now, so worked out how to fill our 1.5~2 hours around SUMINODO STATION while she does her magic on our "youngest child", who is now 10 years old. I find it interesting that at first he thinks he is going to the Vet and complains, but then seems to enjoy the train ride with all those other interesting people and smells and then me carrying him around in his cat carrier.
We make his appointment at 11:30AM, so we then go have a leisurely lunch at OSAKA OHSHO. Did not think it was great the first 2 times we went, but then I tried their CHICKEN KARAGE and that is wonderful! GYOZA also goes down well, and trying other smaller dishes too.
After that, we then make our way to DOUTOR COFFEE. It was overcrowded until the KOMEDA COFFEE opened a couple of months ago, and now is the perfect place to have a drink and wait for the Cat Trimmers phone call.
