critique, uncreative slander, or some sort of pie, it would be much appreciated...

"beneath it" - I thought the drum track was really nice; clean and stuff (little too clean and for my taste though, I'd punch a few holes in it). The synth sound (high and low one) that plays the bass line annoyed me a little. I thought it would be a little better if the notes faded a little at the end or varied a little in some way instead of staying at the same volume. Nice and long.
"Lemonade (really big shoe remix)" - I liked this one a lot more then the first. It was more original. Reminded me of a circus. Nothing really bothered me too much about this one, except the first half was a bit repetitive. I also thought it would be nice if you added some ambient background noises like wind, or maybe even a circus toward the latter half of the song.
"they do it with mirrors" - Pretty good for what it is, but nothing surprising. Nice deep bass, and I liked the effects you used around the beginning of the last half.
"jerkspeakinginit" - I liked this one. Thought you could have varied the drumloops a little more instead of playing the some one 4-8 times (I didn't keep count), and then moving on to the next. Nice ambient sounds.

it kinda needs something else, like a background tone or something around 2:20 after that hi synth kicks in though it sorta picks up enough to stand alone
... like the vocoder, or whatever that is on the left speaker

Diemax, I liked the first two a lot. First one got a little repetative at points... could maybe put more into it, I dunno, make the two note melody that -V- refered to a bit more complex, whatever. Made me want to dance with it's tempo, yet made me want to lay back at the same time. Circus business is real good. I'm getting tired and sort of spaced the second two.

I definately like your organized sound. They do it with mirrors was good too, this is stuff that would more obviously fit into the conventional category of music perhaps, then super weird experimental stuff or something and stuff like that or something. But I like the trippy ear catching stuff, like having the pattern be repetitive technoy drums, but then suddenly get all scrambled and copy/pasted, in maybe a simple but still mentally pleasing way (well I was pleasuring myself while I listened, so that might have been a factor). and the melody is great too. Anyway, I wrote down the names of your kmusic kaliases so I'll be able to check them out thoroughly in the future when I have a computer that isn't made from scraps of R2D2's guts. Too bad we can't post anonymously anymore, then we could more easily be honest with feedback without caring. I probably would have posted as R2D2 and wrote a review of: beep boooooop tweet boop beeeep or something, that would have explained what I was trying to say maybe.

Any technique or tool used to successfully create something interesting is ok in my book. Copy and paste is one of my main tools, it's essential for creating something repeating and symmetry is a pretty necessary element in music, so it's helpful to just copy and paste instead of re-entering the same data over and over. I also the effect when you have a pattern of repetitive beats, but then copy random bits and paste them elsewhere, mixing up the symmetry a bit and making it squarepusherized and stuff or something.

modplug works in windows if that's what os specific meant. you can probably get it at www.sharewaremusicmachine.com, I don't know if it's the best software available to do stuff with though, it probably isn't.
