Degrees (The TEmperature of the Knife I'm Holding to Your
Throat)

... but still lazy
and a little poopy
some nice bass bowowowows though
that part at 1:49 with all those deww deww deww deww's
sounds kind of funny
like "oh oh oh! OOOOH scary ghosts!"
You should call it "scary ghosts in the graveyard or crypt"

oddio those are some pretty fast and changy breaks you got
going there!
sounds kind of all over the place and the melody is weird on
that 8 bit sex track
im still skeptical
amnesiac VS oddioblender

"I fold" should also be called "nights by the crypt or
tombs" or something like that

hey thanks for listening. you have any stuff somewhere,
because i usually like to return the favor (it's something i
expect myself)

as for amnesiac's track:
this is better than the other material i've heard from you.
i think a flaw i've noticed throughout your works is, while
your core elements are very strong (melody and such), you
have some difficulty with variety and arrangement.

i'd say use much more drum sounds - here's a suggestion.
take some of your metal cds (i know you have some) and
record drum loops you like. then cut out the kicks and
snares from those and use those in your beats.

also, play with individual drum sounds - you make SO many
noises with just ONE drumsound. try cutting the drum sound
into little pieces, or sppeding it up, slowing it down,
reversing - do as many fucked things as you possibly can to
get the most potential out of it.

However, this track is solid. It seems that this genre is
more fitting for you - as this track shows more of a comfort
for this sort of thing in its composition.

this track is bizarre, but i strangely like it for some
reason - pretty nice little atmospheric work and some nice
guitars - but something inside me makes me want to say this
isn't you - then again i don't know you - anyways whatever
this is, it has a very uniquely odd charm.

i like, altho a lil soft on melody, listening to loud bass
when youre drunk with this is pretty fun.

Yep this is indeed OK. The only thing I have noticed from
your tracks is that you lack a little on drum variation
throughout the track, but it is a very listenable effort,
something that a lot of "breakcore" isn't.

If you like you could have a listen to this track :)

fuckbreakcore.

so i've come to the conclusion that I need to add more
variety to the drums.

How do I do this without making it sound skittered and like
it doesn't match? I need good transitions but I don't know
how to make them.

this is where math comes into play.

make a wav file of blank space, that is equal to one-eighth
of a riff.

for instance, 1/8 of 120 bpm is:
one riff@120 = 2.00 seconds
1/8 @ 120 = 0.25 seconds

cut these blanks, then take those drum pieces i told you to
do - cut them ONE millisecond shorter than the blank, and
throw the blank over it (it won't do anything, cause it's
blank, but make it fit)
then cut and paste and how shitloads of fun.

Just use recycle to cut up a break and resequence the slices
in a fucked up order and you have breakcore.
