AutoKratz – Self Help For Beginners

, Which, apart from a passable opening track, consisted of a series of bland electronic pastiches – dance music that conversely made the listener want to sit and wait it out. That didn’t stop the hype building around the duo, though, thanks in no small part to the fact that the album was released through in-vogue French label Kitsuné Music. The confusing positivity surrounding the LP suggesting, perhaps, that style overcomes substance once a record company has received the hipster seal of approval.

This time around, however, Kitsuné has stepped aside, with AutoKratz releasing the follow-up on their own label, Bad Life. But has the sense of responsibility that surely comes with this step made them re-evaluate their direction? Has it inspired them to inject a much-needed shot of creativity into their work? Not a hope. If anything, AutoKratz descend even further into mediocrity on Self Help For Beginners . Once again, their best tunes are loaded towards the front of the album, starting with the lead single, ‘Opposite Of Love’. It’s far from outstanding, helped in no small part by the terribly contrived lyrics, but does possess a catchy synth melody – enough to earn it a place on club playlists, at least. It’s a similar story with ‘Becoming The Wraith’, which has Peter Hook on hand to deliver an overtly New Order-esque bassline. Beyond that, however, the quality dips dramatically. Tracks like ‘The Seventh Seal’ and ‘R.I.S.E.’ are typical of the selection on offer; underwhelmingly vapid, derivative tunes which show up a disappointing, but not totally unexpected, scarcity of guile on the part of their creators.

Where AutoKratz do excel is as producers – a quality evident not only in their own work, but also in their remixes for other artists. Unfortunately, this only serves to exacerbate their deficiencies on the other side of the control room desk. Ultimately it may mean that, having failed to address the shortcomings of their debut, AutoKratz will be fated to be filed under ‘Also Rans’ in the annals of music history. That’s assuming, of course, that someone out there will actually remember them at all.

New Excel Macro Training Videos for Beginners! - Office Client ...

Developers and power users new to programming with the Excel object model take note: there is a new series of videos that show how to create, edit, and run macros in Excel 2010: Save time by creating and running macros in Excel 2010 !

 

This set of 4 videos ranges in length from 3 to 5 minutes each. For our purpose of learning an object model, I'd like to call out the first two videos in the set: the first video in the series shows how to record a macro that fills a series of cells in a workbook. The second video shows how to view and edit the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code for the recorded macro in the Visual Basic editor. In general, for Office client applications that support macro recording (Excel, Visio, Word), using the Visual Basic editor to look at the code of a recorded macro is a convenient way to learn the application's object model, and how to write the code for a task that maps to a series of actions in the application's user interface. You can use the code for the recorded macro as a baseline, and extend its functionality by writing further code to achieve your purpose.  Recently I used a similar approach to learn how to use the Word object model to search for a string in an email message. I tried recording a Word macro of searching for a string in a Word document. Then I adapted the code and wrote the macro for the blog post   How to Search for a String in an Outlook Email Message and Automate a Reply that Contains the String .

If you are new to programming with the Excel object model, or even Visio or Word, do take a look at the training videos and consider approaching the object models through recorded macros!
