Nah not really, it's just not all over the place. I like released to have a concise idea about them this is kinda hiphoppy.
I'm doing a boc ripoff one and a release of short tracks some time in the distant future.

This is some sick shit, Orange Dust. Some nice rocking tunes you got going on in this release. A nice consistency of flexing beats with some bossy melodies. Reminds me of an old instrumentals mixtape. Again, some sick shit.
p.s. Awesome cover.

working up from latest reply... (bout to get booted off net by irate mother haha)
Wimp - thanks man! Yeah it's not as plaidy as the last one, so I dunno I thought people'd be like "Where the fuck are all the nice melodies?" coz it's kinda edgy. But yea thanks!
Staplemouth - Cloak Steppin had some problems, to be honest. I'm still not happy with the levels, but it's the best I can do. I just liked stealing kool keith for the vocals haha
Cheers!
Optimus - haha thanks mate yeah I drew that at work on bloody lines paper, had top scan it and erase the lines, pain in the ass it was.
Cheers guys!

As always mate, i am really very impressed by your skills!!!
I kind of dig it but it isn't quite what i am into really, so, i am not really in the best place to say anything really.
Well done though i can't wait to hear what else you have in store for us a bit further down the line.

r40f - Yeah has vibes 12 dropped? I haven't been around and I've missed out on a bunch of stuff.
JAroen - yeah I've had a kinda mixed responses, the most common are "Hey that's cool" "Ew that's weird" and "That looks like Frank!" (mate of mine).
Thanks for the Prefuse comparison! Heh Prefuse's music is probably my favourite out of everything at the moment, hopefully I'm not biting him too obviously...
TehLaw - Haha thanks mate!
Skink - Aw shit I'm biting you too? Essines from WATMM told me someone already had a track called modus operandi too (photek?). Sorry! I appreciate that not everyone will like it, it's a bit rappy. Like I said I have some shitty boc ripoff tunes done for a different release thing too and uhh a few little glitchy bits and pieces but not much else at the moment.
DJ Xammax - cheers :)

This is as good or better than anything I've heard this year. I love the way you drop cool production tricks in a way that doesn't overpower that huge grooving hiphop love muscle. Catchy as fuck. Refreshing.
Have you sent this in anywhere?

Cheers! :) Yeah I spend ages doing step sequencing and I switch muters on and off a lot. And sometime when I'm bored I go through the whole track and switch reverbs on and off randomly ;-)
Nah I haven't sent it anywhere I dunno I don't really do the whole demo thing. Feel free to tell label owners, but they can download the fucking thing like everyone else haha
Might change my ways someday, but for now i'm too busy. My car door won't lock!

Oh GOD he's revealing his secrets! :-) While I have you talking, I wonder how you structure things in FL - do you put a bunch of instruments in one pattern then copy it out and alter it in the playlist like descending stairsteps, or do you tend to put only one instrument in a pattern and have shit all over the place in the playlist?
You deserve a solid gold car door!

Yep the staircase one I spend a while making 4 bar loops, everything in the same set of four patterns in a staircase then i copy them to patterns below and edit them. It's a new method i started using as of just before the last EP (bitches and sandwiches)
Haha thanks I actually need an immobiliser too, can I have a gold immobiliser? And a new battery.

Listened to 1-3 so far and I definately like 3 the best. You're gifted. 2 at least had some recycled sounds from bitches and sandwiches if I'm not mistaken not that it matters.
Have you heard the music from toe jam and earl 1 on genesis? It's great.

I also think you've definately carved out a unique musical niche for yourself ie. you're not a "squarepusher rip off" as you've claimed and others would have a tough time emulating this exactly. Even the album covers are great.

Thanks everyone, just bumping, hope no one minds!

And yeah I think poison and fire are like the two most common tracknames ever haha
w M w - Cheers man yeah there'll be some sounds I've used before, in particular the hiphop drums.
I don't have massive banks of samples, I'm still using my parents' computer haha
I'd reply individually but I'm not sposed to be on the net right now (shhh)
Thanks dudes glad everyone seems to be digging it!
