Yeah. I believe you will find that is parody.
Nope. It's a parody "newspaper" without the paper part, strictly online. Can be amusing: http://www.theonion.com/

Given what has happened in a few threads on this forum of late it is more believable than it should be.... :nono:"Equalizer adheres to the DMCA.

This is the quote that tipped me off that it was a fake story:
-- “[Borowski's] simplistic dynamics and preset loops would drag for 16, 32, or even 64 bars at a time,” says clubber Daniel Hirsch.
“It’s doesn’t really surprise me that he was murdered.” -- (I smelleth a wiff of Onion in the air)
And then when I started reading the Thom Yorke story linked below it, I knew something hinky was definitely going on... Pretty-funny though.

Yeah, I caught the same whiff. The cheek must have been getting sore from the tongue being so firmly planted in it as the "story" was being written.
I figured it was fake when I read "22-year-old Polish DJ Mark Borowski". A real paper would have printed his DJ alias and then his real name. But honestly the whole scenario was kind of stupid.

I must admit, I was totally-buying it up until that point (I still thought it was funny, even when I was still believing it... Does that make me a little bit evil?).
Is Tractor that program where you use two pseudo-LP's to facilitate the manual "scratching" movement (pseudo-PLATTERS, really), but everything is still firmly-planted in the digital realm?
Or is it something else?
Given how heated folks can get about all things analogue.... sadly, I found it amusing as well, in a sick sort of way. The description of blood on the SL1200 must have been what did it. I did smell Onion on it from the outset though.
I know nothing about the program supposedly described, but it sounds like the right thing.
