Posted: Mon Jul 30, 2007 2:35 am Post subject: #IC[Gmail] numberic mark II, select button edition |
|
|
Due to popular demand, numberic is relaunching!
numberic is a select button community service through which you can share and discover fantastic music and terrible noises (usually from Pezon). It's been out of commission for eight or so months now, but it's heading back out onto the pitch today for round two! If you were one of the 67 people on the list as of 11/7/05, which is the last backup I have, I'll be sending you an email asking if you'd like to participate again, but I figured the rest of the community might like to get in on this too.
The way it works is this: you send a message to numberic@cetteboite.com with a couple songs as attachments, and everybody on the list gets them delivered right to his inbox! It's recommended that you use Gmail, for the space and the threading, and it's further recommended that you use an alternate account, or Gmail label/filters magic, to keep your main one free of clutter.
Back when we started this up the first time, the community was a lot smaller, so I had some reservations putting this thread in GBF now - but the thought of an Axe-only music group frightened me horribly. So, some stipulations:
-If you're a lurker, you're not really welcome to this.
-I moderate all subscriptions to the list, and only list members can send mail to it. If I don't recognize your Gmail address and it doesn't look like an SB poster I know of, it won't get approved. Send me a PM in a few days if you haven't been accepted.
-If you bring petty Axe bullshit to the list, you're out in a jiffy.
-Please try to have filenames and ID3/metadata info in some semblance of useful organization.
-Don't spread the list. It's not for anybody else but us and it just wastes my time denying people who aren't part of the community.
-Send any and every type of music with no reservations!
It will probably take a few days to get the list repopulated and the kinks worked out, but it's great fun for all involved when it gets rolling!
To sign up, go here!
*If you put your username in the Your name (optional) blank it makes things easier for everybody to tell who you are, including me!

It's alive! I just sent some music and have gotten some more from the few others that have sent stuff out. I guess I'll clean out my gmail inbox right now. _________________

Made a new gmail account. Doubt that I'll be getting around to clearing the 2.6 gigs of stuff from numberic any time soon, so let's just dig another hole in the fabric of the internets.
Thanks, tb. If I had a crack squad of silver-clad Rock and Roll ninja, I would send them to your place of dwelling to perform face-melting rock ballads until sunrise. _________________

Heh, yeah, mine's still 80% full. Probably should have seen to that before starting this up again, but it's a problem I am willing to face! |

No worries - any mail sent to the list by outsiders is rejected. Your mail made it, though, so you were signed up! |

Naw, man. We just don't want General Internet People browsing the forums to barge in on our club. You're terrific! However, your thing didn't get sent because I hadn't approved you yet!
I have now!!
All the same, for maximum exposure, you might want to hold off on sending things you really like for another couple days to give everyone a chance to hop on the bandwagon. |

Hey. Everyone from the old numeric. My hard drive crashed and I lost all the really awesome music from it and I am saddddddddddddddddd.
Most importantly, there was some Japanese song that was called "Understand" or something. I really need that song again. If you still have it, you should like, send it to me.
endlesschris@gmail.com
Oh yeah, sign me up again. My email box is still 80% full from last time. Only suggestion, can we make a rule like... don't send more than two songs at a time. I mean, if I like what you send, I could probably just email you and ask for more. I don't need a whole album of shit. _________________

Such a great song. I keep it in my shitty cheap MP3 player to play while I'm doing the dishes or whatever. _________________

I said something wrong in my message :( "Rocky Raccoon" is only about attempted murder, not murder. Oh well.
I've already sent two messages, both containing two songs. They're pretty generic, though. |

Oh holy shit. I just noticed that I WAS signed up but under a different old throwaway gmail account that I had like... completely forgotten about.
As a result, I have almost the entire archive of numberic emails. Anyone have any special requests for re-runs? What will help is if you can give me either:
a) The name of the song (so I can search) or
b) The name of the person as it would appear in gmail who sent it... so I can search.
Also. I finally figured out how to make a decent mojito. Yes! |

Whole albums, yes. In fact, we will just re-send the old albums from the first numberic.
(I can't bring myself to delete those Sambo Master albums, even though I haven't listened to them and very well might never listen to them.) _________________

I still have a folder full of Sambo Master songs that I haven't listened to much either, psiga! Ha!
Cryo, I could send some of them I guess but it would be totally random as I can't tell what any but a couple of the titles are because my computer can't display japanese characters.
edit-Just sent the only two tracks I have that have english titles. Ooh-wee. I'm listening to them now and I'm kind of digging them. Guess they won't get deleted any time soon. _________________

There are many people from the IC boards and IRC who don't post here, so reply to the emails. Reply to all for the whole list, just reply for the sender. Gmail threading handles this perfectly and it is glorious!
