Synthet has a set of fun music/mixing tutorials in which he teaches his various editing and tweaking techniques using the very techniques to do the teaching. They’re really creative and enjoyable. Give one a listen:

Welcome to 6:47 of complete, bonkers industrial music played by the experimental music group Einstürzende Neubauten. Formed in West Berlin in 1980, here they are in 1984 playing on piles of junk in a piece they called ‘Autobahn’. Scraping steel, chainsaws, grinders, and screaming. Just what’s you expect from a 1980’s German punk/industrial/what-the-heck-was-that band.

What are they doing now? One member became a music lawyer/label owner, and others are still doing ‘art’:

If you like the bizarre, try out the Swedish band Silencer that release one bonkers album and then largely disappeared.

Roger Waters was one of the creative geniuses behind Pink Floyd. As time went on, he ended up in a feud with David Gilmour and the band split – but he did do other work on his own.

Before he left Pink Floyd, they produced one more album: The Final Cut which was plagued by internal band conflict and was mostly material not used in The Wall. David Gilmour felt many of the tracks were not worthy of inclusion and is generally considered fairly poor by fans. After that, Waters left Pink Floyd.

Rogers then went on to a solo career. One of his first albums, in which you’ll hear tons of lyrical and thematic echos of The Wall is his album ‘The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking”

I’m including a link to the whole album because the cover art is NSFW.

I loved Daytona Racer and poured a whole summer into mastering every move and every track of the arcade game. How did I miss this?

Groveman Drums shows off his mad skills playing rap songs – originally mixed on synths and drum machines – played live on a real drums.
