    What the fuck is wrong with people who do this. the tempo of music is an integral part of its construction you cant just change the tempo on it like that what the fuck

    That a completely baffling thing to do. But somehow the weirdness makes me like Shaun more?

      Yeah it's really weird but also completely harmless. A fun little topic to riff on, and everyone here is having a good time :bloomer:

    I listen to some podcasts at 1.5x but doing this to music is unnatural and wrong disturbing

    EDIT: wasn't sure the tone of my comment came through so I just edited with something I could say sincerely

    Open two copies of your music player, one panned all the way left, one panned all the way to the right, and listen to two albums at once.

    Like a normal person.

    Geeze Shaun.

      love to get very sloppy and just playa bunch of pieces at once. earth 2, ov by orthrelm , those who didn't run by colin stetson, the young cricketer by chris corsano

      then you're operating at the highest level.

      or just start duplicate of a colin stetson track every 30 seconds.

    For Youtube videos listening at 1.5x speed is actually really good. It's still totally intelligible and you cut 50% off the listening time. Especially with the hour plus podcasts this is great. Fast speakers slow it down to 1.25x or even 1.0x, slow speakers speed it up. If you don't do this...start.

    He's a monster for doing it with music though.

      I think you mean I cuts 33% of the listening time ;>

      Idk, I feel like "breadtube" only existed as a defined genre from like 2017-2019 ish, but that might just align to when I became a communist and didn't need them anymore

        If you check out the sub its basically the same 3 white dudes posting their commentary. its a wasteland

        edit: i just looked at the sub and it wasnt as bad as it used to be. still dominated by socdems and liberals.

    I remember someone told me about listening to the entire Wheel of Time series on audiobook at 5x speed. Why even bother at that point

        I mean I routinely listen to podcasts at 2x but I cannot imagine retaining any info at 5x.

    Sometimes I edit my mp3s. Like "Going on" by the flaming lips is amazing but the chorus is dog shit. So I simply edited it out

      Incredible respect if you deleted the original file and just treated the edit as authentic.
