Rob Chapman announcement

NelsonP

Interesting, Rob Chapman teaming up with Atomic. Maybe we'll get the firmware update they promised 2 years ago

Does Chappers do coding now ?

Really quite frustrating when you watch a five-minute announcement video that actually doesn't leave you any more informed than a one-line Facebook post could've done.

It just means he will be working as a product consultant with them. 

Most influencers are working with a few brands. 

Given the trajectory of the Atomic stuff vs how far the Helix has come it would have to be something pretty special for me to be interested.

It's really quite hard to know what to make of this until Keylan releases his exclusive expose.

Yeah "I have an announcement to make, 8 years ago in Brighton blah blah blah"

No but he is part of the Atomic Team and doesn't give a shit. 

Well guess what Chappers nor do we.!

Next week he will be part of the Boss Team and weeks later the Line6 team

He lived all that time in Brighton and he never even called.

What is an influencer, BTW?

Is it that he’s no longer an insufferable bag of twatmilk?

Normally they're leaching, narcissistic arseholes.

Yes.

The traditional "Hello World!" has been replaced by "Greeeeettiingggsss!!!"

I dunno, I've barely watched a Chappers video in the last two years but feel very well-informed that living in Malta if you are wealthy is quite nice.

Oh, maybe it will be monumentally successful and Amplifire will get a firmware update

Don't hold your breath...

There is something irritating about Chappers... but, I wish him all the best.

It just means anyone who's opinion might influence your purchasing decisions. e.g. someone it's worth spending advertising money on.

Yep - they have tremendous power these days as social media has huge sway over purchasing decisions, particularly in key demographics.

If you think it's bad in the musical instruments industry... just have a look at fashion... get to 5000 followers on instagram and you will never pay for clothes or make-up again.

Personally I think you're being very unkind to leaching, narcissistic arseholes.
