<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi zth!<br><br></div>Wow! Nice work! I'm halfway through listening to your album now. In more melodic or instrumentally/texturally complex musics, I'm often not bothered about the lyrics but unfortunately I feel like I lose a lot listening to hiphop in a language I don't understand, as its mainly about the MCs and lyrics. Regardless, this is a very slick job you've done and would seem the to be the pinnacle of FLOSS produced hiphop right now, that I'm aware of anyway and I'm still enjoying listening even if I don't know wtf you're saying!<br>
<br></div><div>What non-free stuff was used? You seem to indicate you didn't quite manage a 100% floss production.<br><br></div><div>The first thing I associate with Gothenburg is RedIce - my fave radio station; although maybe I shouldn't say that due to my involvement with an English equivalent, Dark City Radio. Have you ever listened to RedIce? You should! Its a superb radio show that interviews the worlds most interesting researchers, writers and speakers etc on a variety of fascinating subjects.<br>

<div>Even though few people on here probably know Swedish, maybe someone finds it amusing anyway! :)<br></div><div><br>The album consists of 13 tracks, and was made 100% in Linux from start to finish. I'm extremely happy and proud that we could make all of this _almost_ exclusively using free and open source software! We've recorded/mixed/"mastered" it all by ourselves, mainly using the following software/plugins:<br>
<br>Ardour2<br>Ardour3<br>Some Hydrogen<br>Calf plugins<br>Salamander Piano<br>TAL NoiseMaker<br>linuxDSP plugins<br>Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra<br></div>zita-dpl1<br><div><br>..and a lot of other stuff I've probably forgot to mention! ;)<br>
<br>You can find it at a number of different sources:<br><br>Bandcamp: <a href="http://raptimusprime.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">http://raptimusprime.bandcamp.com/</a><br>Soundcloud: <a href="http://www.soundcloud.com/raptimusprime" target="_blank">http://www.soundcloud.com/raptimusprime</a><br>

Please let me know if it doesn't so I can fix it:<br>

<br>Lastly, thank you so much all developers/users of open source/linux audio in general, for making this all possible!<br>
I'm very happy to be a part of this community, with many more musical projects to come! Cheers!<br><br>Kind regards,<br>Gabriel/zth</div></div>
