I heard that Billy Mays wouldn't promote a product that he didn't use in his own household. Judging from the reality show Pitch Men, he really seemed to like and trust the products that he worked with, as long as they didn't involve driving a truck over his hand.

Was this AMA brought to us by Squarespace, the all in one website platform? Do Squarespace sites look professionally made, regardless of my skill level, with no coding required? Do plans start at $8/month, and do I get a free domain if I sign up for a year? Can I get 10% off my first purchase if I use the offer code "Invisible"? SquareSpace? Build it Beautiful?

She's being modest. Elonka's book is a great resource, and has a ton of codes to practice on. Only problem is that it's kinda hard to come by these days.

Just wanted to come by and say that your music is pretty cool. Not long after your father passed, I saw an experimental music show where somebody played triggered and manipulated audio from various Billy Mays commercials over drone loops while another person played the drums.

I've been looking forward to this AMA for a while. The new album is great, and I can't wait until next week to see you guys.

  1. How do you write songs in 3/4 time in a tracker? Also, what is your preferred tracker these days?

  2. Would you guys consider doing a workshop some time at 8static, Philadelphia's monthly chiptunes meetup? I would love to hear James talk about his electronics projects.

  3. Have you toured the UK since that time you got deported? How did that go?

  4. How does each member of the band contribute to the music? It seems like Pete is often the "frontman", but all of you seem pretty well versed in using sequencers. Who writes what these days?

  5. How seapunk is Ary right now?

I just realized that the only member that I didn't mention by name is Luke. Hi, Luke.
