IDIOT PILOT: STRANGE WE SHOULD MEET HERE
(Produced by Daniel Anderson and Michael Harris)
We strip them. We get a ..... and one of the coolest sounding records we’ve heard in a long while.

Recorded all with free software they downloaded off the net. Do tell. Oh, we will. Next ish.

--from the looptalk forum --

I was reading the latest issue of EQ magazine today, and came across an article about a group called Idiot Pilot. Basically two 18 year old quasi-hipsters who produced their own album using, among other things, a Windows 95 pc and ProTools Free. The article's best quote from one of the little dips***s:

"And all the programming was done using Fruity Loops, which we had a friend pirate off of Napster."
--end

I have read the magazine as well, and i 100 percent confirm this...

so what do you think?

Well at least they had good taste in their pirate exploits. Too bad their IQ is about as dim as a black flag on a sinking ship.

well i used to use a win 95 pentium one running one of first versions of fruity up to about 2001- and yeah i got sum alright stuff out of -

it could be done i geuss-

dat whitetown song 'your woman' is meant to have been done on a pretty simple set up

what they dont tell u though is any commerical cd is mixed and mastered by pros witch makes a big diff- quality wise

its doable but its also in their interest to exagerate and create a good story

They are from the city I live in, I don't really think the mix down was done by established pro's.

but I'm sure they are really, really good.

Napster's already a generic term. Like, you can "xerox" on a Canon, or how every soda drink is "a coke" in some places.

Napster used to have loads of programs and such with the file extensions changed to .mp3 instead of .zip or .exe. I think there was even a special name for them, but I don't remember what it was.

The generic term idea is probably more likely, though.

idiot pilot cd made with pirated software?
