2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

I was contacted by one of the members of Dean Simmons and the Kamens today. He told me to pass along a link to a picture that they've uploaded to their gallery

What are these guys up to?!?!

It looks like they blurred out the filename in the title bar. What's that all about?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

dunno...maybe they were contracted to make the official FIRST theme song...

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Hopefully it was one of my like...50 requests.;)

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

I'm thinking a theme song for FIRST or something that will be performed during either kickoff or nationals.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

The biggest thing I see there is that it has a duration of 3min (about).. Provided this is infact real ;)

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

DS&KB are writing a song that will replace "You To As Well"?!?* Sweet!

It has the required 5 seconds of silence and is around the 3:13 minute mark, which was how long last years animation was.

*Listen to the '05 animation.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

good theory

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Wouldn't it be great to have them play at the Championship in Atlanta?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

"You To As Well"
U2 as well.
U2 are swell.
hmmm?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

whoa, you mean we get MUSIC with the game animation this year??? SWEEEEET. and it would be very awsome if they played at Nats, but it's not listed as an upcoming show...maybe it's a surprise (or they just haven't scheduled yet)...boy i sure hope they play there!

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

It's too bad the pic isn't a bit higher resolution or we could extract the sound from the image.

OMG I'm a nerd! :ahh: ;)

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Is that possible? I was under the impression you could only get the volume at a certain point from the bars, not the actual pitch of the notes being played. So while we may know they were playing a chord, we couldn't know what one, right?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

if the resolution was good enough to see the actuall sine wave you could theoretically reconstruct the sound...but i don't know of any programs that can do it.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Yes in theory, if the resolution was high enough you would be able to get sound info, but we are talking thousands of times higher.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

well yeah, but we can dream, can't we?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Now the word I heard on the street is....if there is enough demand...DSK MIGHT go north of the boarder and play their first "international" rock show...aka show Canadians how to rock. Reply to this thread or leave them a note on their forums if you want to see these guys rock Canada. (By Canada I mean the Greater Toronoto Regional):cool:

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Did you also notice that it is on loop?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Maybe they're writing techno songs now?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Only if theres a webcast, audio feed, or Album thats produced.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Botstorm, to the music of Sandstorm. :D
Is that song 120 BPM like this one is as shown in the picture?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

In response to the rumors about DSK possibly playing at GTR( :ahh: )... I believe a simple,

YES!!

is in order.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

I ran this thru the song-extracter-from-a-digital-imagerator* and I believe it is

"We are not men, we are DEVO", that fabulous dance tune from 1978.

(ps, artist = DEVO, hence the song title)

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

I'm being driven crazy by this.

Multiple tracks...the only pattern I'm noticing is 3 rhythm guitars, 3 vocals, 3 lead guitars. 3vs3vs3? I don't see it, only because there's no corollary evidence...

Are there any existing DS & K songs that are 3:13 with 5 seconds of silence at the beginning? With provocative (or evocative) lyrics?

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

:eek: YES! PLEASE! That will be so awesome! I am already going to miss those guys play at the Midwest Regional, and I can not fully enjoy my final FIRST season membership without seeing them!

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Just come across Lake Michigan to Milwaukee...DSK will be in full force at the Wisconsin Regional

The only thing I can get out of it is that it has a bass/drum intro, vocals over light guitar fills for the versus, and all out crazyness for the choruses...and a nice blistering (hopefully) solo. I can tell its NOT Symphony of Destruction. 120BPM doesn't necessarily mean that its 120BPM. My experience with the ACID program is that if you've recorded files, they are automatically in 120BPM regardless of their actual speed. Its not zoomed in enough to see exactly where the beats fall. For instance, my version of Sum 41's "Pain for Pleasure" is created at 120BPM but is actually played at something around 150BPM

I guess we'll all find out (hopefully) on Saturday!

yes! GTA!!!! lol

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Good observation Kevin. I also found out that the swooping arrow icons on the left by the track number mean that the sample used for that tracks are "One-Shot" sample.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

ACID is a fun program, it's easy to pick up but it also has some ways to produce very high quality music. Over the semester, one of my Computer Graphics Technology professors released video tutorials for 3D Studio Max programs. A friend and myself promptly put the audio in ACID and synched it to instrumental rap music. Classic.

But my guess is that they're making a CD. Each band member could even record their part and not necessarily have to meet together but still produce songs. A CD would be sweet.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

In all honesty, I believe DSK would be the perfect entertainment if the Wrap Party is indeed in Centennial Park again :D

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Keep hope alive... there still may be a chance. I hear that these guys may be going south.


Rock on!!!

Old age can do that to you..... I hear Ozzy isn't quite the performer he used to be.....:D

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

I heard this rumor too. I've never missed a DSK show, so this morning I booked a flight down to Atlanta.

Re: 2006 DSK Teaser Pic Released
 

Excellent! Glad to hear that the nonstop world tour is back in the USA. You guys rocked the monkey house at Milwaukee Zoo.
