Definitions by edjog

An audio or video digital sample cut so that it plays continuously without jarring. (Nobody uses analogue tape or film anymore, unless they're into masochism)

Often: "drum loop" ~ a pattern of drum hits which, when combined with a bassline, make a groove. These can be stored as an audio file or MIDI information.
Mate, that loop's fucked up. It needs to be a coupla milliseconds shorter to fit into the groove. Or make the bassline longer to fit it.

burglar's moon

Not necessarily a full moon, but nearly - gibbous. So named because it's nice and bright so you can see what you're upto whilst doing somebody's drum at night.

Actually a pain in the arse because it makes it more likely that you would be seen clearly whilst perpetrating the crime.
Gran: Burglar's moon tonight...

drummer: Yeah Gran, but I'll take a maglite anyway, for when I get inside a place.

An alternative spelling of bollocks, meaning testicles and often also used as an expression of dislike, disbelief and/or ridicule.

Other alternates are: bºllºx and b*ll*x which can be typed on internet forums where language is restricted for pussies and christians. Advantages here include the kinda graphic representation in the middle of the word.

Actually, The Album Never Mind the Bollocks, here's the Sex Pistols was the at the centre of a UK court case which ruled that the word was not obscene.

Not to be confused with "The Bollox" or "The Dog's Bollox" both of which signify approval.
Person: "Bollox, bollox, bollox!"
Pig: "I'm arresting you for using threatening and/or abusive words or behaviour, contarary to the public order act."
Person: "Bollox! It's been proved in court not to be obscene."
Pig: "I don't care. It is, in my estimation, 'likely to cause offence' and that's all I need. You're nicked."
Person: "Oh, Bollox."

Person: "Mate, my brief got me off that public order charge, she's the bollox!"
Mate: "The dog's!"
