Eureka!

We have much to boast about today.
Being creative involves being innovative. and of late we have been doing a lot of both.
I think we've copped onto a few new innovative ideas which will take the world by storm one day!

Inverse Pinch Harmonics
You do a standard pinch harmonic on the guitar by picking the string and touching it slightly at a given point which then splits the frequency of the note, resulting in a higher pitched sound than that which is fretted. But we here at RINSE! yes wait for it! have invented a technique in which you pick the string upwards, and touching the string with your index finger. Hence Inverse pinch harmonics. This then gives freedom to expand into playing tremolo pinch harmonics! Boom!

DJ'in with ONLY 2 Vinyls
Its a bit of a ball ache when your DJin, you know, you gotta lugg around loads and loads of records in a huge bag along with all your other gear. Well not anymore! Here at RINSE! we have been spitballing and come up with a way in which you will only ever need 2! yes thats right! 2 vinyls to play an indeffinately long set.

The key is using panning. (wiki) When cutting tunes to vinyl, you would have the fundamental track in the central pan position. You would then have other variants of that track across other pan settings in the stereo field. By using the pan control you would be able to then scan the track for the desired sounds and drop them into the mix. By utilising this with traditional mixing methods and having 2 specially panned vinyl (even double sided) the options are almost limitless. But only ever using 2 vinyls! Genius.

TOTEMPOLE
This one, to be fair, has allready taking part of the world by storm, (if south wales and bristol count), and its one for all the smokers out there. Everyone's heard of two toke hold, and other such variants on the theme. This is where you take your two tokes, hold, pass the joint to a friend who then does the same. But, different to original two hold, you do not exhale when the joint is returned to you. You take ANOTHER two tokes, and hold that too. Hence the totempole, stacking tokes ontop of another. This is repeated until your physical capacity to hold anymore smoke is reached. Then you are out of the game.

It is best played between a group of friends, the more people, the harder the game.
The amount of tokes per pass can allso be changed. See if you can go more than 3 rounds of 10
toke totempole. I dare ya.
