Anyone want a copy? It's 128 kbps but it sounds way better a quality than cat 23. Fuck another kick starter or band camp sale of this. It will probably sound worse than my 128 copy
I'll post a link if there is interest

for a sale, i'm afraid i'll need something with a little more electro-acoustic pretension.
for example: take AB5 to your vacation home on the lake. blast it real loud across the lake to a waiting microphone on the opposite side, and encode at 96kbps joint stereo. even better wound be sony atrac3; that shit has some lush aliasing. however, if you want the real aphex money, i'm afraid i'm going to need more. perhaps some microphones duct taped to disco balls, a concert performance reviewed sarcastically by fact magazine, or a masochistic group of classical twats rendering themselves the plaything of a spoiled millionaire with a midi controller. i would pay up to $5 for that.

i sort of like the idea of having a competition to see who can dig out the oldest, worst aphex trax. greasiest 48kbps .WMA moster with an expiration date south of the 00's planck time off a CDR that's flaking blue tin foil but still reads alright
also, i am still waiting for payment for my album "Sampled Library" since all musicians are entitled to dollars as someone told me on another idm boards.

it's strange that my last album is better than aphex twin's last album. how far he has fallen.... but he still makes dozens of thousands of dollars without doing jack shit, and meanwhile i've lost my job. i'm sure i'll find another, but watching recent events while i'm in between has been more than a tad upsetting. i think i'm going to start selling my gear. ddrummondd can crack a drink; at least he follows my ~career~ somewhat rite

you're just an asshole who does nothing but try to bait and annoy people; any sort of sympathy you feign is going to be a setup. meanwhile, i don't give a fuck about the job. it was shit anyways. i'm more annoyed that i've freely given something i've poured a lot of myself into only to have people tell me to fuck off while calling me a cunt for not paying aphex more money.

Its actually somewhat decent too, if you can get past the fact that everyone from watmm has it. Unlike that turd cat23, so sad to know that we are in the future now in 2014 and all were getting is this crap released out of RDJs ass into this skrillex world via watmm and scumbag website admins getting all this undeserved credit,

This is actually onto something...
From a personal- I am Ultra and Lazer- point of view, this track actually has a lot of next level shiz going on. I did listen to all of it several times (just rewinding, etc...). Cuz what caught my attention was the "okay" intro, like "wha...?". Then the stabs come in at :45, and it hit me like oh FUK.
One strength of the intro and related parts is the high dynamic range; having extreme variance in volume of elements. But around 1:45, this is lost in mud. Then gets fine. Then 3:20 gets at the edge of having dynamic range, but still stabs nicely. Then, mud again. Then nice. Pretty cool shit with reverb in mid area, and nice mains hum or TV buzz in later bitz. Nice vocals.
The stabs and dew dew dewz are the strongest non-beatz narrative elements, and when it goes to "mud" (the hard buzz drone), beatz+melodic strength is lost in this.
I know it sounds like shit to crit, and even more shit to give a specific tip-- but if the hard buzz cut in and out as the stabs and vocals come in from the ether, this could be really solid.
Sorry, sorry..... Sounds like shit, I know. No offense intended! Just my random ass opinion.
Whatever the case, don't feel bad or de-motivated from non-recognition of your sonics. I've listened to a lot of your output on SC, and you definitely get onto some next level music at times. I don't know what you want people to think of your music, but positive stuffs-- onto some next level shiz is what I got.
But overall-....... A rhetorical question: How can your music be 100% (I'm talkin' true sincere raw muthafuckin' LAZER), when your website has undercurrents of self-demeaning vibez? On the one hand it's obvious you really care about it all-- on the other hand, you pretend that you don't. I hope you find the strength to spread your truth, and not perpetuate your lies.
Godspeed.

for the last few years everything i've done has been live mixed, and as such, it's hard to fix those sort of mistakes after the fact. that track had all sorts of bullshit going on like feedback from a few room mics, and as such, the harmonics were slightly beyond my control at times. i think the space paranoids II track i posted should meet your criteria for less mud.
it's all moot, anyways. in january i decided to take a break from music because i was broke and wanted to focus on work. then in april i lost my job anyways. i've put it off as long as i can, but now i'm selling off my synths.
what i wanted was to be able to wake up every day and make things i imagine in my head into real reality things. sometimes music, sometimes code, sometimes writing. unfortunately, that would seem to be too much to ask of the world. there is an office cubicle with my name on it for me to slowly die in. i don't have it in me to quit music, but i think i am giving up posting it on the internet, along with most of anything else i make.

Ocean Breeze is hot dude. The fuck.
Don't stop sharing, cuz it's good when sincere and positive. Like Reading Rainbow.
I've been fortunate to have several months/YEARS straight of "free time", and the idea of "I'd get so much done with total freedom" turned out to be an illusion for me.
Riding the lazer edge of your mind and making mad revelations of self from your creative works, things tend to get out of hand. The highest forms of personal expression tend to create new forms of perception, so one ends up loop'd. In that sense, your "non-perfected" works are ideal, because you just do, then finish.
I know people working FT, who make the time to complete unrelated great visual/music works. Bit by bit; CONSTANTLY. It seems if one's great works cannot be finished in "busy" times, they cannot be finished in "free" times. Cuz what is missing is not "time"-- the missing element is setting LIMITS and making time to create.
MAKING TIME, like to where if you didn't press a button at certain intervals during the day, you'd get kicked in the dick.
Finishing works is not asking too much of the world, but thinking you NEED TO FINISH IT ALL is asking too much of yourself (ironically resulting in working on little). Doing JUST ONE THING seems counterproductive for those who are multi-talented, but that kind of focus is what completes projects. I have many talented friends-- some are poor and doing fuck all and depressed, the others are successful. Learning from both sides and myself is where this babble comes from.
One thing, focus, NEXT. Somehow all of a sudden, fucking everything gets done.
I wish this on all!!!: That you make time, to make works. Cash from Burger King or crack-- irrelevant. A job makes apparent the extreme value of remaining time, cuz THAT IS ALL YOU HAVE.
Hedonistic doodling has created innumerable massive talents, but it's only those who can go against the *fun* to work with discipline and unpleasant shit, who have anything to show for it.

dude. i've done my best for the last decade or so. i've worked minimal jobs so i had the most time for all this stuff. if i had the time and cash to continue, i would continue to get better. but i don't. i need large blocks of time to make a reasonable effort -- i couldn't do ocean breeze now. when i did that, i was going hours a day, every day. i could get back there, but not with the time and money i have. this means anything i do from now on will be of lesser quality than what i've already done. so why not just play xbox? ditto for making videos and all the other shit i've piddled away my savings on, only to get trolls and complaints about how i fumbled a fader working six synths at once. more than a bit irritated now mang

Some people are just way better than others at certain things, everyone has their strenghts, and its up to you as an individual to realize what you're good at and stick to it. For example aphex twin barely tries and writes 4 tracks a day that people would pay 40k for some 20 year old tracks, when he probably made them in one go without even trying. So obviously he has found what he is good at. Maybe wjat you're good at is posting on forums instead.

hathathat i think u should just accept my philosophy theres no such thing as good music. cuz 1ce u belive that u can let go of all ur deluded ideas about music such as what u just said above that if u work longer/harder on a track it will be better!! cuz when better doesnt exist that statement makes NO sense and u can just free ur mind. the difference between "good" and "bad" art and "art" and "entertainment" is just a invention from the ppl in power to continue opressing ppl

Well in spite of what I said about everyone having their own strengths, everyone also deals with their own demons/difficulties and I'm sure even aphex twin has his own personal battles. But what is your objectove at the end of the day? For me, its djing, coke, whores and touring the world. For others, simply making music for themselves that they can enjoy suffices. So a lot of it is in your perspective and what you feel entitled to. There's always going to be another skrillex out there who has mad connections through country music and is able to game the system and shoot up to the tops of the charts and get incredible exposure, so if you're in it for fame, its a losing battle.

i stated quite clearly what i want:
"what i wanted was to be able to wake up every day and make things i imagine in my head into real reality things. sometimes music, sometimes code, sometimes writing."
as i also said, "unfortunately, that would seem to be too much to ask of the world."
i do lots of things other than music, i figured there would perhaps be enough value in some bit of it somewhere to let me scrape by, but i guess not. i will definitely mess about with music forever, but if it's just a laugh of a modular wank i'm not going to subject that little bit of escape to the internet's assholeness.

the bottom line is i don't have the resources to continue doing it properly any more. but yes, i will cherish what i have done forever, fair enough. i am not regretful of trying in the slightest. my current misery is more about not having the means to continue, despite not wanting to give it all up.
