Nurse's Cue-Sheet for Doktor Avalanche

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Unless, for example, Flood 1 is set at 198 but played with the drums spaced further out. So it's actually 99bpm but spread out and played twice as fast, so it sounds the same speed, but some parts can be played at faster intervals inbetween.. if that makes sense. :oops:

however, as i already proved (by counting no less!), the number of bars is the same as the number in question. :wink:

In fairness, Lee, how am I meant to read the thread with an avatar like yours distracting me? ;)

Whatever it is, it looks slighly Neanderthal :|

This day and age, to work like that... is begging for probs.

We have laptops, Reason, Ableton Live, proper sequencing...

This looks like Mother Russia incarnated (or incarcerated, not sure)

neanderthal? :eek: oh well,in the eye of the beholder and all that...as for the rest: she's an internationally renowned gymnast and contortionist -which i suppose is about self-discipline rather than technology- and undoubtedly makes a fair wedge at it.

she is russian though.


.....oh! you're on about the topic of this thread! :lol: :notworthy:

I'm sorry, are you nuts? :eek: I've read a truckload of books and ACW is my all-time favorite fiction one. Miles better than the film. Give it another read! It's got a great world, with the lingo and everything.

Of course, I should keep in mind that the opinion comes from a Sisters fan who doesn't seem to like The Sisters much, either :wink:

they are not the BPM.. i rather think it's the prinstallation numbers of the songs "synth side effects" or something like that..
on Romeo, on several occasions, the doctor only does the drum as Ben dares to pick up the bass for this one..
the BPM is can be changed manually on a drum machine.. if you listen to some shows (old and new) you can hear it speeding up at the beginning (some versions of heartland and war on drugs) but mostly they are preset..

btw, in almost every case, the book is better than the movie, unless you have no sence of imagination what so ever.. :lol:
