i almost don't even know why i bother posting links to my music anymore. the lot of you are much better than i could hope to be years from now. anyways...right. i was watching my drempels background because i'm a loser and have nothing better to do with my time...and felt inspired to make an attempt at another track. it's been awhile, because i've been severly disheartened after hearing the works of many of the members of this board as of late. anyways...there's the track down there. tell me what you're thinkin'.

I think it sounds like jelly bears trying to saw their way out of a corrugated cardboard box with plastic toy saws but the cardboard has gotten wet and then dried out and it's all funky and fllakes of it are sticking to their sugary bodies and they hate it but they have to get out before that guy comes and eats them.
Good shit!

i love your biography...if you're music is even half as good as that it'll be worth a listen..
unfortunately my brand new computer is currently out of order and the one I'm using has no speakers, therefore I can't listen to your tracks.
"i am me and me am i, meaning we are we. no you. once upon a time there was the viscount. he was me and i was he, so thus i and he are we. nevermindwhat? nothingineversaidanything. i wouldn't worry about it. s'like sledding down the stairs in a tupperware bin. wahoo. "

nice track, would fit nicely with that screensaver. Perhaps I would've liked it more when the melody were a little more 'in key'. But I guess it's all about the atmosphere.

I really liked it it sounds like being confused, when i'm confused anyway.
Amsace, don't feel disheartened in any way because your stuff is good, i know how you feel 'cos i felt the same when i first joined the board, the first persons work i checked out was xanpha and it blew away, i was kinda thinking "Man, when will i ever be that good!" Then i just thought "I will get better and i have.
Anyways keep up the good work!

It's good stuff, clicky and glitchy and micro with a playful and light fun mood that is usually not produced with that kind of sonic vocabulary.

The ambient noises and effects fade into the background very well, makes it sound a lot less muddy than I was expecting when the song started up, very nicely done.
Sort of hovering in between ambient and something with more changes... I'm not sure what to classify it as. It conveys images, which most music doesn't do for me, this is intriguing.
I'd say it sounds like it's raining gummy televisions into the ocean, which sort of crackle and fade out in little unimpressive bursts of noise when they plop into their watery graves.
I'm going to classify it as "ambient" and make suggestions on that, what were you going for?
The "melody," or higher frequency line is a little repetive for my tastes... I'd like to hear some little differences in the line to make it sound less electronic, more natural. Maybe the effects, delay, verb, cutoff/res whatever... maybe even some subtle 1/4 tone pitch changes, that would be really cool if you did it in the same style.
I'm as honest as possible with my reviews, you probably know that by now, and I'd definitly say it's a good track. I'd say the time is very ripe for some broad an undirected experimentation to delve into things you've never tried before... maybe a different music style and make it your own, something like that

I came into the board about 9 months after really starting to do electronic, so I'm still fairly young as an electronic artist, but I had a heavy classical background, and I loved to listen to all sorts of experimental music. So I guess I had an idea of what I wanted to sound like... then when I started I decided that my vision was totally not what I wanted.
You'll figure it out... if you had no talent or no ear, you'd be hearing it from your reviewers here I'd imagine, you're only getting better mate
My "new" style that I'm fooling around with, using my strengths now, up on the Marsupials thread I started, if you feel like giving it a listen

About the pitch changes - but isn't there already some BoCish warble there?

I was thinking shift all the notes the melody slowly up off the harmonies to make it a little more... hmm... disconcerting?
Then again, I enjoy a little dissonance

oh wow. this right here has made my day, guys. for reals. i wake up late (3:47 pm), find out my naruto episodes STILL aren't finished downloading, and my stomach kinda hurts because i haven't eaten in awhile. THEN i come in here and find actual POSTS in my thread! what a neat surprise! i...i...see. yes. i don't even really know what to say. i guess it just means a lot to me, seeing as how you two happen to be two "music makers" i look up to around here. i've only heard a bit of your stuff, fleetmouse, but i like it. i should get a hold of some more. and mr. sanguine. yes. kadath and wendigo are wonderful. i'll go inspect this thread you've mentioned. =]
thanks very much for the positive feedback. maybe i'll go tinker with it now. *shrugs* yes...yes. that's what i'll do (after i finish watching naruto. hehe).
