okay this is probably going to sound stupid but I have an issue with ableton and my midi controller. How do I 'pick' which instrument to play? Most of the time it's stuck with one column (idk what they're called) until I make a new one (one for samples or soft synths) and stuck on that one. For example, I have soft synth A up, my drum samples and just got soft synth B up. But my midi won't play anything from soft synth B, despite getting the midi commands
Any help here? I've had this issue for a while, I usually just close and open again but I really want to sort this out now

ITT: Albums you've made
>>74987132
Do you single out songs from albums to listen to or do you exclusively listen to full albums every time you want to listen to music?
full album, music flows better.
Who else remembers when LCD Soundsystem's music took a nosedive in quality?
>>74987111
You just proved that Fantano is the one who took a nosedive in quality.
>>74987167
2010-2012 Fantano was actually a fuckload better than he is today
>Used to spend about 5-10 minutes reviewing each album, the perfect amount.
Now he drags on and on, sometimes taking over 15 minutes, mostly about the band/artist's history. He spends a lot of time repeating the same ideas.
>Used to care way less about the context
Anthony now spends a good chunk of the review talking about what has led up to this album, when albums really should be judged without context in mind. Albums should be individual and complete itself, as they are usually sold and made.
>Used to care way less about lyrics
This one is more subjective, but I don't listen to music for the lyrics, nor do I pay attention to them. The lyrics are not the music, they are poetry, usually, and should be judged separately. This one is more up to personal taste whether you care about the lyrics or not. Still, now he talks about the lyrics twice as much as the actual sounds or songwriting.
>Old fantano
5-10 minute reviews, 95% about the music, 5% intro/outro. Also really comfy
>New fantano
10-20 minute reviews, 40% about the context, 30% about the lyrics, 20% about the musicn 10% intro/outro. Not comfy.
>>74987167
yeah except he really hasn't.
you're just growing up and realizing that A) he isn't a very good critic and B) you no longer care enough about reviews because you are potentially past the point (or getting there) where you feel like you need your opinions validated.

all of these have been stuck in my head.
>>74987123
this one makes me feel quite sad as well
hell be fine
>album has two tracks with the same name
What makes Kendrick Lamar a good musician? He doesn't write his own lyrics. He doesn't produce his own music. He can't compose a song. He has no knowledge of music theory. He can't play a single instrument and I highly doubt he can read sheet music. He's pretty good at talking fast though I guess.
>>74987038
I can do all of that and still confirm music is shit.
Fantano gives this album a 5 so I knew it was gonna be good
>>74987027
It's crap.

New song came out, loving it. They're definitely the best synth-punk group going and certainly one of the best bands in the US. With their talk of always evolving with releases mean we get to watch years of greatness?
>>74986825
I agree, Street Sects are an incredible band. I think their debut was probably one of the best debuts of the 2010's.
New album when?
>>74987010
October 6, nation wide tour with Dälek as well
