Secret Satan 2017 (What’s in the Box?)

[ThurberMingus]

I was too excited to wait to open the box that just arrived for me in the mail. I’ll post some recreated reaction shots shortly (and I’ll make sure to include the hatchet/knife combo I used to open it).

In the meantime, holy shit, ThurberMingus! This is amazing!

I’m glad you like it! I’m gonna hold off on commenting until you post pics!

I also have some records that I’m waiting on from a guy half a state away, but I’m really glad you got everything else in time!

I really regret not filming my unboxing. The box showed up as I was getting ready for work and I just yolo’d it open. I was literally in disbelief and wish I could have captured that on camera

Nils’ video fucked me up though. Can’t wait to watch the rest!

I LOVE YOU DISARM DARCY

(i am awkward on camera and I don't portray my hype well enough)

fcknoise is the kinda guy I'd want to load up on shrooms with and take a stroll on the beach, or on a long walk in the mountains and contemplate the meaning of life. The peak of the drugs occurring around 3-4 am. [/

Aw man this is so freaking Sweet

Can confirm fcknoise very fun person to hang out with in the early hours

Still no clue who the heck sent this! EDIT: OH DANG found some stickers in the box afterwards.

That's so awesome!! Why is it become such an ILF meme saying "I'll probably edit this part out later" and then not editing it out


And right back at ya CBS

I have no use for zombie baby jesu, but this really is my favorite time of year.  I get to watch my cats play under the tree and there’s ILFSS.  Getting the chance to see how someone else thinks, checking out work from all the forum builders, trying out gear you might not think to get yourself. Best. And this year it looks like everyone is having a damn good time.  But I do have to say that my gift package from dminner is epic, fucking epic.

Dminner has the skills to pay the bills.  I’d seen alot of his posts in BST and admired his work, but in person it’s incredible.  The two shirts - one full-on custom - look great and are actually the right size! (Something both my wife, Amazon, and too many of my fav bands haven’t been able to figure out.). And the screenwork, probably the best I’ve EVER seen.

My real present - a custom creation from dminner’s Audio Disruption Devices!  Won’t have a chance to plug in until after the holiday, but based on the looks and control set I’m betting the description from the enclosed letter - DESTOYS EVERYTHING - holds true.  No idea what the design is based on, but I can’t wait to try it out.  LFO and an octave switch and three nipples!  Can’t wait to figure out what it does - but I know it’s going to DESTROY.  And visually, it just stunning.  The screening/paint/whoknows is unlike anything I’ve seen in person, and the slanted enclosure, yum!

And on top of it, dminner is some sort of psychic.  A second pedal, that I assume is obv HP based - a circuit with which I have a long history.  (Actually it’s a Bosstone - even better!). Always happy to try a new variant, and I’ve never had, seen, or even made one that looks this cool.   And the Modest Mouse record?!  Flashbacks of college, the millennium, the girl that stole the LP when we broke up, doing covers of Shit Luck at open mic nights w/ her and a third, weird and embarrassing stories that go on from there.  

Most importantly, dminner wraps gifts w/ duct tape. Brother from another.

No vids, but pics below and links to dminner’s IG with even better closeups

TL:dr - dminner : mystical psychic brain tapping pedal genius.  Awesome just incredible skills and gifting.  Legit.    Love.

Happy ILFSS!!!

I’m cheesing over here!

Honestly I’m a little bummed I didn’t hold out for the Broadcast or HP2, but when you posted that Fuck I just couldn’t resist! I looked at it for a couple of days before I said “that’s a used pedal... better add something else”.

This is really cracking up to be one hell of a SS! I hope the knives and unboxing videos become annual tradition!

[weebles]

Seriously above and beyond. Blew me away.

Loving this!! Especially the nipples on that Audio Disruption Device.

No video from me, sadly, as I open presents together with my family. But at least I took some photos of the awesome loot that good sir Satan jrmy bestowed upon me.

First, pencils and stickers, because hell yeah (didn't take pictures of them, but I think some of the stickers are jrmy's own glitch art?):



And the rest of the stuff:



Four CDs (know some of this stuff, psyched to listen!), awesome socks, a tin filled with picks (the one you gave me last time is in constant use, I'll bring this to live in the rehearsal space), the coolest t-shirt ever (which I am currently wielding), and an ADD Aphelion! Ducked around with it a bit earlier today, and it's an interesting modulation machine that is capable of cool, bitcrushed slapback delay and loads of other audio mangling stuff. Will take some time to learn it all, but the first impression is that it's fun as heck. Also cool that I got a pedal made by my victim. CIRCLE JERK! I also got some amazing candy, that is not pictured because I accidentally it.

Thanks a lot, Jeremy! Was stoked to see that you were my Satan again, and boy, did you deliver the holiday cheer. Love you, man. <3

This is a fantastic celebration of our holy fuzz love, brethren and sistren.

holy crap
what an awesome secret satan

Volca Keys - looks awesome! havent had chance to play yet but youtube examples sound like Vangelis which is amazing
Load of crazy candies - the big foot is a personal favorite, and my cat quite liked the crocodile until he figured out it might bite him
There was a yoda pick that is somehow become one with the force and evaded the photo - add the Kane figurine and theres my sci fi love on point. Really cool!
I have added the barefoot button to a pedal and will take a pedal board shot with it in due course. these are very nice!
Last but no means least a CD, I listened to the title track and really liked it. Not a band I had heard of before, so thanks for turning me on to that ( Unknown Mortal Orchestra)

I have no idea who sent this, but a genuinely massive and heartfelt thankyou. I appreciate the time, effort, care and lets be honest $$ that went into this. Thankyou so much.

Yayyyyyyy! I'm so glad that it reached you ok, and that you dug it. I may have gone a little overboard this year. I kinda started stocking up early, and just kept going. I guess there are worse things!

Happy ILFmas everyone! Joy and fuzz to all!

Holy shit I never saw that magpie fleshlight abomination. It's gonna sound like this when you jerk off:

Soon, my love. Soon.


... I did eat the snacks I originally purchased you, so I can get fresh ones. They were delicious.
