I think its when your in a rut and your not making good music. Its a way of convincing yourself your still a great producer despite the absolute shite that your pumping out.

If New Order hadn't bought a new drum machine "Blue Monday" wouldn't have come about

Lol I can't comment as they are before my time.

I can only assume things where different in those days when there wasn't a flooded vst market?

Well if we stop buying stuff, surplus will accumulate in storage, less manufacturing will be needed, people will loose their jobs, and recession abounds

Isn't thus the mantra these days to spend spend spend

it doesn't imply to buy nothing, but to have days, where we escape from buying.

I guess it is good to have a day now and again devoted to thinking about what one will buy the next day

All I need is WobbleBoss and my GAS will be over, I swear

[hibidy]

I dunno about that warez pic, seems to imply warez is acceptable in context.

I had a little bit of gas but staved off the urge and now I'm bored

I'm a long time sufferer. I've managed to slim it down to this over the past few months. I know. I know. I have issues

DAW
Ableton Live 8, Renoise, Logic Pro

Collections
Komplete 8 - Kontakt, Reaktor, Absynth, FM8, Massive, Guitar Rig, Battery, Studio Drummer etc.
...

Got Live and Logic and about to buy Renoise -

But Renoise and Chipsounds = awesome new world of weird creative workflow

@ Mello First off I highly disagree with the Warez picture. You don't want to be giving people the wrong idea.

I give up trying to justify my problems.

people don't need a mello to know about warez.

[hibidy]

So you are saying warez is good?

[mellotronaut]

So you are saying warez is good?

no. it's a way, a lot of especially young people use, to satisfy their G.A.S. i just mentioned it. it's real and it has heavy consequences and you can't deny it.
