    Mines comes back from when i lost the plot in a bad way...

    Neuro = brain
    Jazz = the random directions it can go off at

    Also meant to me personally my music was was my brain jamming melodies in an improvised way freely.

    I find it very hard to stick to a genre and tend to go off into weird places when writing - am slowly learning to get a grip on that bit by bit.

    Ignoring the 98 part mines a lyric from a song.

    Eh `Shamrockrovers without the s.

    Pure Bawler who would that be?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭jtsuited


    my favourite starting hand in holdem (and statistically stronger than AK [against an underpair] due to the fact it can make 4 possible straights)

    also the jt part is coincidentally my initials.

    rubbish screen name imo, but whatever.

    It's the name I did a few gigs under a number of years ago. I do all my music under this name but I am considering a change as I don't like it anymore. I'm considering using Melodius Junk now, although I'll probably get sick of that one quite soon too and it would have to coincide with a musical change of direction too.

    Dav is short for Damhan (The 'm' and the 'h' create a 'v' as in 'Davan')

    from the Mighty Boosh .... Old Gregg
    I'd been on boards many years ago as 'Ok Computer' but stumbled upon it again recently and decided to rejoin just to see what was happening where I'm living and figured on a screen name that had no connection to my music or anything so I could spend some time doing non-music Internet stuff .... then I found the Music Production section and it's pretty much the only place I post .... such a sad person ... I need to stand in the corner with the waves

    i only found out the other day that Old Gregg was based on Rick James. Now I wonder how I never saw it before.

    I orignaly joined Boards to get advice about classic cars (I drove a classic MGB for a few years). Classic cars in Ireland are often assigned a "ZV" reg number if imported into the country 2nd hand.

    The Yoda part is self explanatory to any Star Wars fan (the original movies - none of your prequel rubbish)

    Yeah, I know <yawn>

    In the meantime (cue shameless cross thread referencing), if anybody would like to throw in their 2c on this, please feel free to do your worst!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭pallepille


    from an absolutely mindbogglingly crazy and ridiculously stomping acid techno onslaught released around the turn of the century by german dj Warmduscher on Kai Tracids' Tracid Traxxx imprint. "Warmduscher - 10 Kleine Bassdrums - PallePille Mix / PillePalle Mix". Filthy grinding percussion manipulated with an astonishing display of hardcore effects, extremely powerful stuff possibly capable of waking the dead. (or keeping a wee impressionable youngster awake past all hours of the night at least)

    the 'Rat got his name when he popped his forum cherry over on Rec Audio Pro

    He only had internets in the studio at the time and so was spending much time there;)
