My favorite part

The Hilton quote

Hold on get ready for the Hilton quote

>conrad Hilton, the guy who made Hilton hotels, he said he read a book, a book by hellen keller, and in that book, hellen keller, she said "Optimism"

I like that this is two layers of quotes, like why is Conrad Hilton even brought up, it's a Hellen Keller quote

and then the Hellen Keller quote is literally just "optimism"

>>721246
it gives the exact same vibes as that yeah

>>721449
it's a name, as far as I'm concerned.

>>721466
The thing about Fagen is that a lot of his shit is pretty sardonic, especially if you've ever listened to the Dan. The album itself has a sci-fi theme, he's a pretty big fan of the sci-fi literature from the period he grew up, among other authors like William Burroughs and Nabokov. But the titular vehicle "Kamakiri" of the Kamakiriad is a like weird car that's all futuristic and comes with all sorts of features.

mmm

>>721469
I assume so. I can play the song with the car, if you want.

"disdainfully or skeptically humorous : derisively mocking"

Hmm, iirc the Kamakiriad album is from sometime in the 80s

Oh goodness gracious

Wrong, '93

>>721477
Depends on the song. In his Steely Dan albums and his own solo albums, it's not always explicitly ironic, but an exploration of an unsavory character. Think of it like a short story from an author.

>>721486
Steely Dan was less of a band, more the core two members, Fagen and Becker, who collected session musicians to do their bidding in the studio. They were notoriously perfectionist.

We talking about Steely Dan?

>>721491
Yes, and by extension Fagen.

.play deacon blues steely dan

>>721496
oh my god, you're playing their magnum opus

Yes

>>721495
Steely Dan is interesting because they had an evolving style, but Fagen and Becker have always incorporated a little bit of Jazz flair, it just became more apparent as the years went on.

>>721498
No, this is just the song about the futuristic car.

twinkanon could be a character in a steely dan song :^)

>>721505
What was that!

The lyrics are pretty fun, I believe it was last verse he picked up some random girl from the wreck of a fiery crash lol

what's your favorite dan song, twinkanon?

>>721515
Specifically? The Royal Scam, from The Royal Scam. My favorite album because my dad had it on vinyl and I always loved the cover tbh

>>721517
The cover's great. I have that shit on my shelf. Also have a vinyl copy of Gaucho and Aja

It was two dudes and they had session musicians. So basically, people they hired. Whoever could play their perfectionist vision would make it onto the record.

>>721525
Yes, they were notorious for it. Especially since a lot of the equipment they were using was analog (time period), it was a bit more difficult to satisfy their tastes. I think during Gaucho Fagen joked with the engineer Roger Nichols or somebody, "can't you just get a fucking machine to play it" in reference to a drum sequence. So the dude spent a year learning 6502 assembly and programmed a drum machine called Wendl that attempted to make a less crappy sounding digital sample into something for their tracks.

>>721521
If you are asking something along the lines of "are they as full of heavy hitters as Led Zeppelin", not quite

>>721527
god what useless knowledge I have

>>721536
I think some of it comes from curiosity about the drum machine, it was probably some rabbit hole I went down. I think technically it was very interesting to me, especially the era transitioning between digital and analog equipment. I've done some signal processing and audio stuff for my own interest and some school projects, so the subject is a bit fascinating to me. Also just obsessively buy books on electronics and whatever else captures my interest. I think I first started learning about synths and stuff from some fucking stupid book, "Computer Music Tutorial" by Curtis Roads. Dude was a pretty famous composer, I believe. But he's great, he keeps it relatively simple, but also includes all the technical details needed for a musician.

>>721540
I played piano as a kid. Didn't really understand much until now though lol. I also really love electronics, so naturally, I wanted to understand how analog synthesizers and some of the signal processing works. It's been a year or two long project thus far, going from knowing literally nothing to being at least somewhat informed.

I was a bad piano student.

>>721544
I'd rather not lol

I just basically do it out of technical curiosity. That's how it is in my life. I pick up something because I find it fascinating and then try to understand it well enough. Usually there are fleeting and shifting moments of interest. But it's generally a couple of things that capture my attention at once.

YES YES YES IT'S TIME TO ARGUE WITH LITERAL WHOS ON TWITTER ABOUT THE RWANDAN GENOCIDE

They are making a really dumb argument essentially

The Rwandan Genocide was like uniquely evil, legitimately. They are like "oh the Rwandan Genocide Commission found that starvation is a paradigmatic element of genocide" and I am like... that's a very narrow look. Because yes, forced starvation was part of it, but you are also kinda leaving out the part where the Hutus literally clogged a river with dead bodies because they were "sending the Tutsis back to where they belong" and this literally collapsed the fishing industry in Uganda because you couldn't cast a net without pulling up a dead body

And then they are like trying to be like "and the Interahamwe got their weapons from the EUROPEANS" and I am like... yes, because the Interahamwe was at war with the RPF for years
