>The future belongs to analog loyalists. Fuck digital >heavily

it was an analog drum machine you racist

Also produced a number of Whitehouse albums but still maintains his anti digital views

Is he also a hypocrite for using a cell phone or the internet or e-mail?

That's silly he doesn't use them to make music.

He probably enjoys receiving a hand written letter more than an email though

albini is actually pretty ok with spotify and streaming. says it's a great way to get music out there and find new stuff, but that good vinyl will always have the best sound

also that digital is a poor archival format, which I agree with

albini was a major piss taker. said shit to piss people off
just read his big black diary funny as hell.

this, it was a TR-606

Why is it a poor archival format?

>>61957333
because tape masters are incredibly easy to store and maintain and the standard is set.

you know how no one uses floppy discs anymore? it's like that

>>61957372
I could be misunderstanding but why does that make storing g it digitally a bad way to do it?

>>61956707

Just because Whitehouse uses electronic instruments doesn't mean they're digitally recorded

>>61957422
digital standards are constantly changing and digital media hasn't reached the point where you can store something long-term without serious data loss

furthermore, even if every machine that could read tape tomorrow disappeared, the mechanics of operation are relatively simple so you could make a new one

not so with a sata drive or whatever

I see. Not sure if agree though.
