📝 Lyrics:
Ihr zahlt 2 Millionen für nen Parabelflug
Kotzt dabei Melonen in den Flugzeugbug
Und das soll sich lohnen?
Nein, das überzeugt mich nicht richtig
Ihr fliegt schnell nach Bali, sammelt miles and more
Jettet nach Kigali für ein Nashornohr
Handelt mit Alkali
Mir wär das n bisschen zu stressig
Ich kauf n Ticket für die Ringbahn
Und ich fahr vier Wochen im Kreis
Das Ticket kostet nur 3 Mark 80
Das ist n wirklich fairer Preis
Ihr fahrt Lamborghini und tankt immer voll
Hört dabei Puccini und nie Rock n Roll
Wodka Dry Martini
Bloß nicht noch den Cocktail verschütten
Ihr seid mega unentspannt trotz all dem Geld
Aufgeregt herumgerannt quer durch die Welt
Da bleib ich auf Abstand
Smooth rein in die S41
Ich kauf n Ticket für die Ringbahn
Und ich fahr vier Wochen im Kreis
Das Ticket kostet nur 3 Mark 80
Das ist n wirklich fairer Preis
As I was wandering on the west coast, I swung by @_the_atomic_garden_ Oakland for a fantastic session.
We finalized recordings, mixed, and started mastering of a good portion of the songs we work on together! Can't wait to share them at some point.

Hi everyone, if you have ever been interested in listening to cylinder recordings from the late 1870's onward, here is a website which has preserved 10000 cylinders and digitized them so that people in the modern day can enjoy these early recordings for our listening pleasure. They have also a link to a list of just over 650 home recordings of people at the time who bought Edisons' Phonograph and used them in there houses and made recordings at the time on cylinders as well. The site describes this better than I can, but hope y'all enjoy. #History #recordings Overview | UCSB Cylinder Audio Archive https://cylinders.library.ucsb.edu/overview.php?utm_source=chatgpt.com

Today, I have a real treat for all of you. This is a huge list of full operas from 1901 to 1956 (with a tiny handful of modern exceptions for lack of earlier recordings), complete with links. I have included all sorts of performances for you to enjoy, covering evrything from Mozart to verismo. While most are Italian, some are in French, German, and even English! For those who saw this when I originally posted it, I have greatly expanded it. Please feel free to mention anything I may have missed so that I may add it to the list.

Also, if you like older opera singers, you can join my subreddit devoted to the subject.
I like listening to recordings of actual civil war veterens, they're very interesting and they made it very clear why they fought in the war and their views and no, its not at all what you think. It was mostly about states rights, they were extremely forethright about that fact. #History, #Recordings
This is a subreddit that I created on 25 September 2025. It is related to opera and singers who began their careers prior to the 1950's. Please feel free to join if it interests you, and of course, to boost this and/or share it with your friends.

Galaxus TV and I
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Galaxus is the Swiss Amazon, or at least one option. I first came across when I was buying tech toys via Digitec. They then bought Galaxus, and then Migros bought them.
They provide an opportunity to buy Raspberry Pi, Continental GP 5000 tires, Apple iPhones, Merkur razors and much more. One of the great things about this online shop is that it interfaces with plenty of other shops and it provides you with an estimate for when things will be delivered. In so doing it is a convenient, and intuitive to buy stuff we do and do not need.
Over the past year they have been diversifying their offer to include mobile telephony, fixed line internet access and most recently, Galaxus TV. It is built around Zattoo's tech. Zattoo is a web streaming service that offers TV programs that are broadcast via satellite to be accessed without the installation of a dish. This is good for people living in apartments where installing a dish is less intuitive.
Where it differs from Swisscom TV and other service providers is that it offers you the option of recording up to 1000 programs, with no scheduling limit like EPGs used to have via satellite. This means that you can set a series link for The Simpsons, Frasier, and Grand Designs.
The other advantage, and this is where it is great, compared to Swisscom TV, is that for 11 CHF per month you have access to these channels, and because you can record TV without paying 23 CHF per month (the last time I checked) you can browse the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) and find programs you want to watch, set them to record, and the next day watch them at your convenience, and skip ads.
With Galaxus TV I am tempted to cancel my netflix subscription and rely on Freeview once again. Years ago I was very happy with satellite TV. It's only because of student accommodation, or living in an apartment that I moved to Netflix and other options.
With this, when the Tour De France is on, I can watch it.
You can add all the British, French channels from France, ARTE and Swiss French channels to quickly find content in languages that you understand. I'm especially happy to have MoreFour and other Four channels.
Now when Attenborough, or British presenters mention their new shows, I can once again watch them with ease.
There is one little drawback. Programs remain for a week, before being made unavailable, so if you set something to record, it's good to watch it within a day or two, and it's good not to allow your back log to become too deep.
I don't want to spend my days catching up. I just want an hour or two of content, that I can watch in the evening.
And Finally
With Galaxus TV, I once again get good access to European made content with ease. Netflix has more and more international content but at this moment in time I am quite happy to suspend payments to US based companies, in favour of those based anywhere else in the world. If I can support a Swiss company, rather than a US one. I am happy. I haven't cancelled Netflix yet, but Galaxus fills that content niche quite nicely.
It also makes choosing content much easier. Watch it within a week or wait until they broadcast repeats.

Meine aktuelle Abhöre zum Mixing/Mastering! 🤘🏻
Ich fühle mich langsam immer mehr heimisch in #trechtingshausen
Das Studio selbst ist von den Räumlichkeiten her sehr ähnlich dem in #wackernheim
Ein echtes ➕ ist allerdings, dass ich, im Gegensatz zum alten Studio, Tageslicht habe.
Dies bedurfte natürlich einigen akustischen Anpassungen; was aber überschaubar war.
