Try norwegian labels since Nitrostirumpa means "nine trush
in the ass" in norwegian. Such a sexy name for an artist.

I have over 1.000 tracks (1997 - 2010) and I produce every
week about 50 more tracks, so per month I have about 200 new
tracks, per year I produce about 2.000 tracks if you see it
like that, but I´m without a label. So I produce alone and
together with friends. They are amazing talents. Search for:
"Czino", "Alopha", "AugZF", "Goatsniffer", "Faktor4", "AMZ"
and "Falsewanderer". I hope I didn´t forgot anyone now!

DAMN!!! you produce A LOT, dude... If i could give ya a
piece of advice. I'd say create them tunes for yourself
first, without the aim of signing for some record label.
Just create because that's what you do. Not with some back
thought. I would lie if i said i didnt hope to release my
music some day. But it's not my "goal".

I give you a challenge... Make 1 tune a week, no more, hehe

i think its very interesting that i see you posting here

maybe 2 yrs ago i came across your track "ankhiar" and
jammed it a whole lot. very good stuff

maybe you just aren't putting yourself out there enough

Well, if i were you i'd stop waisting my time on Youtube,
don't you have a website for your tracks? A personal one,
not myspace or anything? It's well worth paying a monthly
fee for. Then i'd start making "releases" and release them
on your own on your website, and get that website out there
y'know. Make something cool out of those releases on your
webpage, some coverart or other art that goes with the
release for example, you know, have some fun with it. Show
you're proud of your own work in a way. Music making is
supposed to be fun and not factory work.

But please, from now on, lose the 'i want to release my
tracks on a label'-attitude, because you are simply not
going to. Else you would've already released something on a
label by now, trust me, they know where to find you if they
like your work.

I am in no way judging your music, but your way of working.
Take that hard work you always do, but put it somewhere else
in action, like in actual "releases". And just have some
bloody fun with it, it's not a race!

That's like telling some boy he's never gonna fuck, cuz he
would have already, if it were possible. "Girls know where
to look!" Everything that has ever happened, was preceded
by that event not having yet happened. Non-action is not an
indication of future non-action-- it is only an indication
of what has already passed.

---

And 50 tracks a week is prolific as faaark, mang. I'm sure
a label would release your music based on that gimmick
alone, but it helps that the music is not bad (I listened to
some you posted).

Also, when your "shit to be a musician without a label"
becomes "labels are shit without me", then you'll definitely
have something that's at least worth sending everywhere.

Bad music gets released daily. If it weren't for overly
confident shit musicians, then there would be no such thing
as a bad release, and of course, we all have face scars from
our palms from such bad albums.

ever heard about quality control? if you make 50 tracks you
just haven't got a clue. start making something out of clay,
in that way you might benefit from your overly prolific way
of doing things.

Don't listen to him, quality control is for twits who want
to please their parents.
Just do what you do, it's cool.

demoscene is full of people doing tons of stuff just for
credit, so you're not the only prolific artist that doesn't
get paid for his work.

side note, I listened to some of your tunes and I liked
some, the track named borderline was very good.



 

offline AphexAcid from Sweden on 2010-05-27 14:24 [#02381555]
Points: 2568 Status: Lurker



indeed, borderline is a really sweet track.

the picture of the girl for the track non humanoid
polarization fits perfectly, but the melody gets repetitive
(though, I'd guess it's intentional).

the mood of several of your tracks reminds me of akira
yamaoka.

Great job dragging Nachtlicht into the virgin category, do
you compare dropping a log with backing up your car out of
the garage?

Is it good enough for getting released over a label?

What do you think?

I really like that track but you're gonna need to find a
very understanding label to release stuff as non-song as
that

I don´t like pop. And also in electronica and IDM many
artists more and more follow certain trends, making glitches
and breaks in a certain way or style. I just do - what I
like - and I wish that people see it more like - art - and
not just like something - you have to produce in a certain
way, so you sound like Venetian Snares, Ovuca, Gescom,
Westbam, Moby or Aphex Twin. I think the reason why labels
don´t want people like me is just because I do WHAT I WANT
AND I SOUND HOW I WANT. Lady Gaga is not as free as me.
She´s has got to sound LIKE THE PEOPLE WANT HERE TO SOUND.
And I guess with Rephlex Label its the same. The artists of
Rephlex all suddenly sound more and more like the AFX
Analord style. I really hope music gets again a free will.
99 % of all popular musicans are totally slaves of labels.

Your dislike of Bronski Beat is so in tune with conventional
good taste that it puts a serious damper on my enjoyment of
your music. You should rethink your opinion.

start a label for yourself. you know, do a black dog. it's
easier too. no need to press anything. just distribute via
the internet. a friend who's into marketing might help.

Let's do it, do it one more time
Let's do it while the night is young
