I don't agree with that at all, I'd say it's more to do with being inherently analytical. Your post comes across as a weird inverse-snobbery.

lol, sure being analytical, breaking things down to having a deeper understanding, being intuitive, shit loads of practise. There are many things I could add, to fill out my post so that it's more 'inclusive', doesn't offend those who spent all that time learning music theory and now perceive that their decades of effort is being written off by some smart arse on a message board who wrote a quip off in a few seconds. In general though creative people are less organised, this has been shown in study after study, and conversely more organised people are more organised (and conformist) and less creative. Sure you need some healthy magical balance of both to be able to drive the creativity to some sort of end without getting sidetracked. This is usually in a form of manic persistence to the exclusion of all else though, not necessarily a manifestation of organisation, and starts with the foundation of an innately creative person.

 

So at the end of the day, I guess I was attributing an exclusivity to creativity, sorry, but it just is. Somethings are immutable, there is nature over nurture, not everyone has the same innate proficiency, or even the same ability to gauge their proficiency (taste). At least not until we can start rewiring the brain. This doesn't mean that I don't fight against this, I draw every day, in the hope that eventually, I'll be able to create reasonable facsimile of that which is in my imagination and around me. Just have to work that muscle as they say, and parts of the brain have been known to expand or contract with use or neglect. heh, nwae ... don't be put off, this is an open ended diatribe, have a go, see what happens.

Well the thread for that track has been bumped a lot lately (I only browse by 'view new content').

So it's def an indication that he's still lurking here imo.

Whether or not it's a cryptic hint at something iunno...

One day we have to play to pinpoint Rich´s account(s) in this forum. Pretty sure he has 2 at least. Hi Richard! <3

Richard only has one account (despite attempting to register several others), and AFAIK hasn't used it in some time.

why would he try to register several others if hes not using the one he has

what is he up to

he could be any one of us

who is safe?

hope we find out about something new this month. I remember a lot of the "inside knowledge" rumors said Feb was the month for something new. MFM?

 

EDIT: just realized didn't minipops used to be on the soundcloud. Must have replaced it with this.

Nothing is happening in February...

 

Yeah I figured most of the people posting those rumors were full of shit. I think that was mostly from some rando on reddit now that I think about it.

I think he reads things on here, forgets he has an account, and tries to re-register. Uses very funny/mysterious email addresses too.

what kinds of posts does he usually post? Are they normalish, or semi-trolley?

maybe he just forgot his username and password and now he can't enter the forum anymore because of dupe cockblock filter??
