theculturewarrior Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Hey Dust: I'm an amateur musician and I have made some relatively decent home recordings. Is there any way I can send you an MP3 or two for posting on the site, just so that phatmassers can hear my music. Not interested in anything other than sharing my tunes with phatmassers. This is probably not a likelihood, I know, but I thought I would ask. God bless, TCW (Plan Z is to start my own site, and post it there.)
dUSt Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Sure. Send them in mp3 format to my e-mail address, webmaster @ phatmass.com
theculturewarrior Posted July 7, 2004 Author Posted July 7, 2004 Great! Thanks! I'll send them ASAP. God bless, TCW
theculturewarrior Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 Hey Dust, Bear with me, I'm kind of new to this, but I tried to send an MP3 last night, and it didn't go through. I got a mailer daemon that said (I think) that my email exceeded the limits on your address. It looked like I needed to get the email to under 2MB. Is there a way to compress an MP3 that won't destroy the sound quality? I had been saving them at a lower baud rate, but they sound terrible afterwords. (And even then, there not small enough to send). Could it be my email address? I'm supposed to be able to send 10MB. Could it be a mistake?
ilovechrist Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 no, being able to send 10 MB is right. however... i'm not sure if there's a way to compress the MP3 (there are different sizes of them though, set it to 96k) without destroying the great quality..
qfnol31 Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 It's probably hotmail that won't let you send if you're getting back the "mailer daemon" thing. Go Microsoft! :ph34r:
theculturewarrior Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 Actually, I have a yahoo account. My coworker says I can zip it.
ryanmeyersmusic Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 mp3s don't zip very well... they're already super-compressed files. you can send it to ryan@ryanmeyers.com and I'll stick it on my server for dust to grab it...
dUSt Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 Well, if it's going into the phatmass jukebox, it'll be compressed to 64k anyway, so you may want to save it at that bitrate.
theculturewarrior Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 Okay...will do. I just want to make sure everybody knows these are [b]not[/b] professional recordings. They sound pretty nice at a baud rate of about 256K, not sure how they'll sound at 64K Anyhoo...I'll send them ASAP. Thanks guys. Music is phun to share!
theculturewarrior Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 I'm getting jitters. The music on the jukebox sounds pretty nice... And also mine's not rap.
theculturewarrior Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 Gee, thanks for the assurance, guys!
theculturewarrior Posted July 9, 2004 Author Posted July 9, 2004 Hey, I saved it at 64K, but it sounded TERRIBLE! I sent them to Dust's phatmass account, just thinking you might have some use for them, but they sounded BAD. I think it might be better if I send a nice chunk o' mp3 to ryanmeyers and then you can compress the file to 64k. It sounds horrible when you save it to that rate. Or perhaps I am not understanding the process.
theculturewarrior Posted July 9, 2004 Author Posted July 9, 2004 I sent the larger philes to Ryan. I think because the program I use is inexpensive, the MP3's don't sound good saved at 64K. So I sent a larger phile hoping you all could work with it. God bless, TCW

theculturewarrior Posted July 9, 2004 Author Posted July 9, 2004 Okay...now everybody can tell me how wonderful my music is.
thicke Posted July 9, 2004 Posted July 9, 2004 Man....TCW, is that you on those four files at the address?????
thicke Posted July 9, 2004 Posted July 9, 2004 That's awesome! Especially "California Girls". I already got the words stuck in my head, and I don't mind..... Two thumbs up! I only wish I had a third thumb!
