Momentum mit Janko Nilovic! Seit 1960 lebt der Komponist, Arrangeur, Produzent und Multiinstrumentalist in Frankreich. In den siebziger Jahren war er einer der größten europäischen Talente der Library Music. Der größte Teil seines Werks erreichte nie die Öffentlichkeit des Tonträgerhandels. Doch gerade unter HipHop-Artists ist sein Werk eine beliebte Quelle für Samples, Dr. Dre und Jay-Z sind nur die bekanntesten Beispiele. Er spricht über seinen musikalischen Werdegang, die Premiere der Doku über sein Leben „The Sample: Return of Janko Nilović“ und seine Musik.

Yesterday I spontanously released an album. I worked on "HONEY WHEAT GOLD" for the second half of '24 and don't want to enter a demo cycle for this one. It could be described it as a soundtrack for a strangely wonderful dream and I dedicate it to my wife. Because.❤️‍🔥
And now: Music.

A reader asks: In a time when people have so many tools to limit unwanted and unfamiliar interaction, how can pollsters be sure they’re reporting results from a random, representative sample?

Jennifer Rubin: "Important point. Response rates have plummeted, and #polls now require a mammoth effort even to come up with a sample of a few hundred voters. This phenomenon adds to the difficulty in devising an accurate model to capture expected turnout. Only the most professional and well-funded pollsters do a more credible job in producing a representative sample. It is one of the reasons we should be highly skeptical of #polling from entities without an established track record. Overall, too much weight — and too much political commentary — is devoted to polls of questionable accuracy and even less predictive value."

Welcome to everyone who's just joining or rejoining Mastodon!

Here's your periodic notice that it is statistically impossible to get a representative sample with a Mastodon poll. The most reliable thing you can find out are absolute numbers ("34 people think Aaron Neville is underrated!").

Please feel free to create, vote in and boost polls for fun. But please don't mislead anyone into thinking that boosting will achieve a "better sample size." It will not!

#MusicProduction

There are 20+ known
#AudioSynthesis types. The most popular being:

#Subtractive
#FM
#Wavetable

Combined with #Sampling, #modulating, #Layering, & #FX, these audio engines cover the majority of sound generation from the majority of #Synthesizer #Plugins created.

Unless a #synth provides a special character, there is no point in having more than a couple of synths.

#OpenSource has most everything you need.

Don’t collect synths for #patches, learn the tools you have.

Okay, so here is my #introduction for all mathematicians around:

My name is Ramón, and I am an Assistant Professor in #Statistics. My research is focused on #sampling and #survey methodology.

I have been communicating the statistics science for 7 years in social media sites, in bars, and wherever I could. Expect from my account: lots of charts, #rstats, data, curiosities, and #scicomm threads 😊

I mostly toot in Spanish, but I will try to adopt English in my future publications.

Thank you!
