Grotbox adjustments...

Howdy, gang! I've just finished fixing a bunch of database irregularities on the Grotbox. The master record of what has been played, how many times a song has been played, and whether or not I liked it suffered a blowout. To our two regular listeners, I apologize for the hardcore metal/MF Doom/Free Jazz blowout of the last 2 days that resulted.

To this end, I just spent the last 4 hours hand weighting everything in the new database. Expressing an opinion on a song on a 1-100 scale, at a rate of 2000 songs an hour, is not an experience I'd like to repeat again any time soon. I do it out of love, and for our 2 brave listeners. (Hi, guys!) Anyhow, somewhat normal service has been restored, though some fine-tuning will occur over the next month.

I'd write a few more paragraphs, but my eyes hurt, and my printer just printed... something.

(and thanks to shankool007 for the image!)

The Theremin Fractured

Beta got me a theremin kit for my birthday, and I've been gleaning music featuring the instrument. (The theremin is an early electronic instrument, invented in the 1920s, that is played by waving your hands by a volume-controlling antenna and a pitch-controlling antenna. It's all portamento and glissando and scifi wooo.) Hence my theme for the week.

Ugly Casanova--Smoke Like Ribbons
Kevin Sinnott--A Burst of Color
Add N to (X)--Party Bag
12 Cents for Marvin--Persian Dub
Les Claypool--Mushroom Man
