They've lifted it now, and it seems to be down to that thing you said when you first start on the site. However what's happened now is that they've used the 6 quid I earned to pay the people I'm already pledging to - which makes sense, though it's incredibly anti-climatic.

Endless Extending Concertina Scenario

Reet nice, that! *aproovs*

Thank you!

A public post.

Me, just before making this post wrote:Song-based minimal novelty experimental music. Try saying that three times after being smashed in the head with a brick.

(I'm doing the occasional public post from now on, as I figure it might encourage sign-ups)

Enjoyably quirky, Michelle! Huzzah!

Yes. Hooray

Thank you all!

Oh, and here is one more public post, because it's something topical

11-9-2021 (Warning - very high pitched tone)

Here is a new public post, which is a short film that I released publically due to promotional needs. It has my first ever Executive Producer credit! (Which is someone else's credit, a person from my Patreon on the £5 tier, in case that wasn't clear, which it probably wasn't).

Oh, and EPILEPSY WARNING for some of this (including the very beginning)

Magic Spools

How this came to be, in nine easy steps:

1) A horrifying old ad featuring some grotesque puppets at 360p
2) Ad is cut into one-second-and-an-extra-frame-long chunks
3) Each chunk repeated four times
4) Each looped segment arranged in reverse order
5) Rendered out to a separate file, re-imported to editor
6) New file added to end of project and reversed
7) Reversed part copied and pasted to end of previous
8) Un-reversed version put on track above copy of reverse
9) Blend mode of un-reversed clip set to Multiply

COMEDY THROUGH AVANT PRACTICE

I'm sure your Magic Spools was used to try and brainwash Michael Caine in The Ipcress File!

I love that kinda stuff, mind - fab work!

excellent

(fantastic)

Thank you both

Another public post, another song:

Trepan You

It's a Pixies pastiche. The vocals aren't up to snuff because I can't exactly scream like Black Francis / Frank Black / Charles somethingorother IV, but hopefully no one will mind

excellent. i like that a lot

Me too - twas good, that. As for the screaming, not many can scream like Pixies singer man.

Apologies for the short notice, but I'm doing a one-off Twitch stream tonight at 7:30PM (GMT). Drop by at the following address... https://www.twitch.tv/michellepamelalyons

It'll Be Alright On The Night!

"Grand Pricks!"

Obviously just watched yesterdays race!!!!!!!111111111111111111111111111111111

It seemed to go OK! It's now available as a VOD repeat at the link above, and should be there for the next 15 days.

Excellent. I'll watch it tomorrow hopefully

Good to hear! I'm watching it right now! *thumbs up*

VTUBER! Yay!

I've not posted in this thread much recently because I've been doing stuff for Patreon. But I've made this public post over there, which anybody should be able to read right now:

American Stand Up Comedy

Excellent. Hooray

Seconded!

I'm shutting down my Patreon as it wasn't really working out (brain madness). As a result all the forbidden "content" will become available soon, and in some cases already is - check my Youtube channel for some of it (search for Michelle Lyons).

Also, coming to music streaming services soon...

oh no. now i feel even more guilty for never subscribing due to my hypocritical but genuine subscription fear.

but also hooray (for the coming soon music, not the brain madness, obviously)

The O.U's are most pleasing!

Thank you. Those were made with a 3D scan someone did of those Lucky Cat things

i like generic rave . wav and have listened to it for most of the afternoon

while wondering if i could get that crocodile to play the drums on it (experiment abandoned)

"Learning The Personal Computer"

I digs this - it reminds me a tad of Soulwax's output, which is a definite plus!

There's also a cutdown music video of that track, which will eventually become available...

My EP is now out, and has been automatically uploaded to Youtube Music.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfFaKLK ... oXvWXiBfmd

It should be on Spotify and other bastards as well. Or at least if it isn't yet, it will be after Easter.

Pebbles Placed In Order is incredible. Hooray.

Thank you! Also I just put that "Generic Rave" track out through Distrokid's systems as a single, as you seemed to like it so much AND as a way to get my full name registered in Spotify, Apple Music, etc.

(And also because there are two other Michelle Lyonses, one of whom is a physiotherapist or something, while the other has been in local US news a bit recently as someone who is a journalist who has investigated loads of executions in Texas, so I thought I had better differentiate myself from them and not cause embarrassment / confusion to the latter).

Here is a thirty second preview of the streaming version of Generic Rave, which is practically identical to the existing upload, and will be pointlessly replicated on Youtube Music in due time. Although it will be uploaded under my own record label name they allow, which I have called "Other Records Are Available Records".

A couple of years ago when i was making some william burroughs cut up things, I accidentally signed up to "academia.edu" because they appeared to have the full text of some of his stories as pdfs, but actually they weren't pdfs of his stories at all but academic papers about his stories that unhelpfully were just named identically to his stories.

anyway ever since then academia.edu send me an email once a week asking me if i'm the david guy who was the author/co-author of some random paper in their system.

Papers I might have authored include:

The Salvationist Stance on Ecumenism (1994, The Ecumenical Review)
Expenditures for Nonspecific Back Injuries in the Workplace (1989, Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine)
Iron absorption from infant foods (1989, Pediatric Research)
Shoulder Arthroscopy Dose Not Improve Understanding of Disease (1989, AORN Journal)
Rate of weight loss during underfeeding: relation to level of physical activity (1989)
Visual acuity and blood lipids in term infants fed human milk or formulae (1997)
Social Marketing as a Framework for Recruitment (2004, Journal of aging)

Under my deadname, I was once confused with someone who was also British and did some sort of avant garde music, but they were based in Berlin, and were convinced that this one really silly album I made was some sort of troll / attack on them. That album accidentally got listed amongst his other things on Discogs, I recall

Also Generic Rave is already on Youtube Music now

Two new things on streaming doo dahs:

Into The Algorithm (official release of music from old video)
The Sound Of Possessed Markets

hooray. i like that algorithm song/video a lot

and was just listening to it before seeing this thread

dng wrote: Mon Apr 25, 2022 9:41 pm hooray. i like that algorithm song/video a lot

Same 'ere!

And I could well imagine Phil Oakey singing over it, too!

Funny you should mention him, I've been caning this early Human League track recently:

Circus Of Death (Official Video)

Features bonus sample from 70s / 80s LWT announcer Peter Lewis, and a cat being annoyed by a cameraman

I love that clip, and I see meself as Martyn Ware swaying imperiously behind that keyboard.

Another day, another single... I'm getting to be like The Wedding Present in 1992, only hopefully good and not continually annoying BBC1 viewers. Well, maybe BBC1 viewers deserve everything they get.

This one is called "変貌", so I'll have to link to it directly. And I have a handcoded blog thing now on my Neocities site, where you can find out more about this latest track.

i like that a lot (especially also the cover art)

Last of the singles / releases for a while - yet another new version of something I've been messing around with for years:

Coloursensations

If you don't recall, it's the early 90s "baggy" pastiche thing. It has new vocals replacing the samples, and a freakout style bit towards the end.

I likes it! Yuss!
