Already you can see the ads changing, and it's going to continue to devalue our creatives.

They'll be fine though, they can be engineers and stuff  

Was going to suggest Mick Mannock for the famous people we maybe should know better?

He was the UK's top WWI fighter ace with 61 aerial victories, but he was working class and believed in Irish self rule.

Richthofen was bought down over Allied lines and was given a hero's funeral. As for Mick, barely anyone's heard of him.

The public school words removed and the Daily Mail do not come out well in Mick's story.

What's changed?

Yet to suggest reversing this decision despite it being proven beyond doubt to be based on lies, is still heresy in mainstream politics.

It would be a betrayal of the Russian backed Brexit, sold to the nation by traitors, morons and the tax shy.

Neal Hefti - 'Oh Dad, Poor Dad, Mamma's Hung You in the Closet and I'm Feelin' So Sad' OST

Hefti wrote the classic Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Batman!

The mindset is subtly different between studio recording and recording to loop.

A loop encourages precision. If you cock up a pass? You have to start everything again. This is frustrating, but the reset is instantaneous, and reconstruction to get to the same point is quick and straightforward. Then you're getting the practice that makes perfect on the first attempt.

Also looping is continuously rolling, it's more go than stop. I think that refines the internal clock somewhat? Keeping good time becomes less of a conscious effort.

Anybody else had experience of recording other people? 

In your friend's case, consider a looping sampler.

A zillion years ago we had a Lexicon JamMan. Digitech do one now, I think? There's others, I'm sure.

They encourage good timing with feet and fingers.

They work as delays too, so it's win win.

That'll be bitter.

Transport For London's figures are steadily climbing.

Tube journeys just passed 100,000,000 a month. Highest level since Feb 2020.

The debt mountain at UK councils has reached staggering levels, posing a risk to local services, the Public Accounts Committee has said.

BBC analysis shows UK councils owe a combined £97.8bn to lenders, equivalent to around £1,400 per person.

Committee chair Meg Hillier warned of an "extreme and long-lasting effect" if more councils go bust.

Council leaders say years of government under-funding have forced them to invest in commercial ventures.
