This isn't quite finished, I don't think, however I would welcome comments even if they are of the "this is shit" variety. My great music loves are Detroit and Indie 88-92. And the soundtrack to Jackass. And currently the band Cultural Amnesia. This is Stag Light. |

..Withnail sample..? nice. :) nice melody. although I think that bell-like thing mixed to the left is more interesting than that main melody-line. the bass drops in nice. I like how the whole thing sounds like it's clipping to hell and back. :) I think you could do much better with the percussion - it's kind of bland, sounds a bit generic. you could replace percussive sounds, build up, take away, etc. could be very nice. make it more distinct in that aspect. nice work (eventhough Jackass really sucks). |

You really are quite marvellous having listened and reported back so, with such useful advice. I have a terrible weakness for cheapy sounding drums, I know I want the drums to sound "killer" so I shall take on board your wise words. I have a terrible weakness for Jackass too, though I think it's because I don't have any friends. |

the melody is pretty simple and that works well, I think some inventive percussive work could really lift this track, give it just that bit of intricacy that would really make it work. sounds like you should spend some quality time with a program that'll let you design your sounds, like SoundForge..! :P |

Basically i want to get in there and write the theme tune to the Miami Vice movie before it's actually made. |

SORRY.. BROKEN SHIFT BUTTON... hmm.. it seems that having caps-lock on neutralizes the effect of the shift button... thanks for swinging the gears around your head so that my thoughts were initialized. |

that's much better. I have fallen madly in love with you again. |

the world is set to rights again. now.. back to dog_belch's track. |

You can shout "QUITE GOOD" in my thread anytime, how about next time yelling "REALLY EXCEPTIONAL"? |

it reminded me fennesz at a start, nice pads, and i liked the voice at start. its a nice track, i would like to listen to it finished before saying more. plus i would change the beat, make it bit deeper. its ok, but i will wait till its finished. |

|
|
yes. |

Having now listened with both of my ears I would have to conclude that I really like this track. I actually like the percussion the way it is. It's the way dance music used to be before it slipped into "it's shit unless you have snare rolls every 5 seconds" drill. Nice work. |
||||||||

"quite good" was, like a "get off your lazy ass and finish the track!!! NOW! then, you'll get an 'AWESOME!'" |

I will finish it, I am spurned on by your encouragement and open ears, and I appreciate what you all say. I am glad about what Mr Ecnadniarb has said because that's how I feel, I know the beats and melodies have mutate and change to engage the listener over 3 minutes, but at the same time I don't really like wilfully stop-start, IDM musicians fear of a regular beat lasting more than one bar. But then I never did like jazz, I like INDIE. |

you misunderstand me. I never said I wanted you to go all glitchy with the beats, but the percussion sounds themselves are pretty bland. I'm talking about the sound, not so much the rhythm itself. wahoo etc. |
||||||||
|

Oh sorry old boy, I wasn't referring to your comments or indeed anyone elses, I just mean in general, you know, kerazy rhythms just for the sake of. Your advice is sterling and has been locked into the MUSIC GENERATING SOFTWARE part of my brain loob. Wahoooo. |

THAT'S THE LOOB I'M TALKING ABOUT!! |

Umm helpful comments in my view. Maybe less of the fizzy? It may just be me but I don't like so much fizz. A reasonable amount is good though. Funny little "stuff it up your arse" clip, I like that, you'll wanna keep that. I think that the percussion maybe should fit in more with the mood of the track. I would like to hear some crazyness too with the beats. It's a solid track and I'm sure many out there will enjoy it, at this stage of it's development or in the future, but it's not totally my cup of tea. That's alright though, because you're not trying to please my ears. My ears are worthless. |

I think you've got great ears, there IS too much fizz. I think I let this slip too early, it's one of those occasions when you're working on something and you think "Hang on, you're a bit tasty at this, NICE ONE" and then the next day you go "Oh, what was I on about?". So I just thought I'd see what the keen ears of XLT might pick up, and they've not let me down. |

I like your style, good concept, finally put the nail in the fucking coffin of IDM once and for all, kill it KILL IT!!!! |

Me and a shadowy band of loosely connected though like-minded indivduals are setting out to do just that, don't worry. |

so.. if IDM is a world filled with vampires.. dog_belch is that world's Buffy the Vampireslayer!! *cue Buffy-theme by Nerfherder* |
