I am looking forward to my first live show VERY much. It is Saturday, June 16th at 8:30 pm at CDX. (an indie music store) I also finished recording my first EP yesterday -- the D-Pantothenol EP. It's tough to describe its sound -- just consider it electronica. Track List: 1. D-Pantothenol -- ambient hardcore track 2. Katrina -- fast hip-hop (drum n bass?) track 3. Jawjaze -- 3/5ths jazzy swing track, 1/5th analog noise 4. Marzapan Jam -- bass track. over an industrial/braindance rhythm. 5. 52801 -- mY Best song ever. Almost pop but not quite. I have NO lyrics. This EP was produced by my friend Brian White -- he's an audio GENIUS! - too bad he's moving to Houston to study music engineering..... : ( -- but he got a fully paid scholarship. I sent a HORRIBLE cassette demo of my works to Planet Mu Records. (U-Ziq's label) I also sent my computer-written music (written under the alias Audioblender) to Rephlex on CD. I hope either of them respond. Here's the addy to my shitty web page. |

Me and my friend Dave played at my school a while ago, it was our first show ever. It was terrible!! everyone was just sitting around whille we were playing, then the speaker blew up and people we're complaining. and the vice principal told us to play some good music! ach, it wasn't a good experence |

Good luck with the live show, OG! I've thought about putting on a show soon too, but I don't know how to go about it. Most of my gear is in my PC, so it wouldn't be much of a show. Plus I'm a bit apprehensive about taking my only PC onstage. Good luck anyway, Chris. |

thanx for all the replies. I appreciate it. Luckily i AM using someone else's speakers so if they blow up i'm not losing anything ... ooh ... but then they'd probably kick my ass. |

Well, me and my friend weren't actully putting on a "show" it was actully a DJ set. We tried to play stuff that people would like (ex: Westbam or Fatboy slim), but people weren't really diggin' the dance stuff so we started to play some mainstream style hip hop (ex: Run-DMC or Beasties) people still weren't liking it, so we ended up playing a bunch of punk stuff like NOFX and Strung Out.l Still nobody was dancing (there were only 40 people that showed up anyways!). Luckily we didn't have to pay for the blown speaker! ACH! hopefully the next live gettogether i do will be more successful. |

i used to play guitar and sing in a hard rock/metal/punk band and nobody really liked us. we had one poppy song that everyone liked, but when it came to everything else, they hated it... they told us to play some dance stuff, which is hard with a real drummer, so i quit that band and started my own industrial/dance/idm/metal/electronica project... we're doing our 1st show soon (hopefully) and we're gonna rock... |

Mr. Organ: just to let you know...if you read Rephlex's thingy about sending them audio demos...they will most likely only listen to MiniDiscs. Go on their site and read...just for everyone really. |

Me and my friend made a dj set for our high school not long ago... it was great! we got 500 kr each! (60-70 dollars) the music consisted mostly of Barry white, daft punk and old classics. thats the shit you wanna play! windowlicker is a floor filler! |

i'm not really a dj. i program my beats onto drum machines, have them run, and then i play all of my melodies and pad fx live. it's different, i know. my music is sort of a mix of soft ambient melody over hard, various styles of beats. |

it's more of a braindance style really. I can't afford sequencers so i play my melodies by hand on keyboard. I guess it's more of a.... well to be honest i haven't heard enough of mike p to know if i'm like him or not......... i used to do all my music on computer but i got tired of that quickly.... |

oh shit Aron, that is funny shit. i played a show at my old high school once too. it was when we made like industrial noise shit and the sound sucked and my bass drum broke and this 15 year old girl started stalking me afterward. moral of the story, never play a show at your high school they never understand. *sniff* *sniff* *sob* |

organ grinder dude, me and my bro both played our first live gig the other day under the name "the mingle brothers" it was ok except for the milkybar kid in huge specs who came up to me halfway through the set and asked me to play some "ard oose" i think he meant hard house but you can never be to sure with these country folk apart from him and a few of my buddies gurning like freeks it was a brilliant night live beat manipulation is the way forward for sure keep up the good work!!!!!!! |

true, evolume, true. Anyways they're just words. And he has his own opinions anyways. I'm always open to criticism, as most artists must be. :) But why he would comment on such trivial things as my facial hair is beyond me. :) Well, anyways i just finished my live show and it sorta sucked in the first two tracks, but then i busted out with my favorite and best track and from then on everything went quite smoothly. The floating ambient noises worked much better than I thought they would. But i really need to get rid of my fucking Casio CTK -- that thing is a piece of shit!! But the CT is alright, at least it has a nice clean ambient sound. But some WEIRD stuff happened today before my show. Last night, i had a dream that someone had pawned off some my equipment, and when i tried to get it back, the storeowner beat the shit out the equipment and destroyed it. It was horrible. And then, right before i set up, i realized i had forgotten my power strip/extension cord that i needed to plug everything into.... typical. So i had to haul ass back home to get it. But other than that the show went smooth and i hope to learn from my experience. I also plan to upload some tracks to my page soon.... if i can get the fucker to work. (Angelfire sucks ass!!!!!!!!) |

none of my friends really like my new stuff (the idm stuff), they just pretend they like it, like 'it's not too bad rob'. i wouldn't even try to give them some of my ambient pieces, because they're all into fast, heavy, and popular music... |

my friends and a lot of people seem to like my music, and it's not really accessible, just different..I used to worry about letting people hear some of it (well my 4th cd at least, dark and angry, kinda fueled by a political confusion at the time) and it was just a parallel to my personality..I'm sure you guys will understand this, when you're a normally happy person, but your art is darker, i guess that's just expression. Some people say it sounds like aphex, but it doesnt, a lot of people havent really gave electronic music like that the time of day, so it's an easy reference point. |

mr organ grinder dude do you use a sequncer at all, its cool that your gig went ok, ive got another one coming up soon its an outside hippy festival so i think the ambient trip out crew will most definateley be there, i think the tunes on your site are v/good but have you got any cut off knobs or independant flanger controlls? theres nothing more satisfying than to be able to twiddle with live efx and the live twiddle actually makes your synth tunes less robotic and more natural sounding, the corrective lenses tune is worthy of a remix, most definately, what have you mastered your set/gig too or is it all in the machines? |

well, i run my drumlines solely through drum machines. All my keyboards i play live. I run my equipment through a PA Mixer so i'm able to twiddle with the basic three levels (bass, mid, treble) and i also have a few cd's of floating ambient noise i made on computer on a cd. I'll play that through a cd player in the background and sometimes it fits and comes together really well. I'll probably have a live track up soon so you can hear what i'm talking about. Fragilnine, Aron, i know how you feel. My friends seem to be just saying "needs improvement." They're afraid to say that they think i suck. But other people seemed to REALLY enjoy it. So the opinions were half n' half. I don't have a sequencer yet, but i plan to get one soon. I use a guitar processor with knobs to add flange, phasing, distortion, reverb to my music when i feel like it. I plan to use it more but i didn't use it during my show because i was short an amp cord. :( |

SWAI, i think you need QuickTime, RealPlayer or some shit like that, some sort of plug-in to hear it. Dingle Berry said he heard it. Months ago, i had a few comp-generated sound bytes on my site, and they ran through QuickTime, so i'm sure that's what you'll need. :) ---OG |

hey SWAI -- i found out what was up. I have a JavaScript do-hickey script whatever the fuck it is that turns my pop-ups (including ad banners, tee-hee) off. So i accidentally put it on all my pages, but i realized i just needed it on my welcome page. Good news, the sound files apparently work with Real Player as well, so check them out, SWAI!! :) By the way all, if you wanna hear my music, here ya go: |
