I've put a little bit of violin on my website; here is a short sample. I'm posting this partially to see people's reactions, partially thinking that some people may actually enjoy it, and partially because of an obligation to my past. or something. Ok fine I admit it, winter break boredom strikes again.

it should be homoerotic. This proves to me that leaving spam is exactly as I expected--awful. Not because no one is leaving messages (given the nature of the music, that's expected), but because of all the other shit that goes in your head as if I was leaving real electronic spam. You want just criticism, but you want compliments, you know there's no reason to listen but want attention.. basically it's all weird, and I feel weird when I leave comments for others. It becomes some big jerk-off circle. Maybe if I knew people's music here better and left electronic I would have a more business like approach, for instance I've seen people leave spam then log off for a day and bump, avoiding the place so that they don't peddle the thread.
Sorry I IMed Monoid for that blurp, I thought he'd say something interesting. blame him in his thread.

no no I didn't write the stuff, though I modified some of it.. it's me playing the violin, but there's some of my piano playing separately on the page.
I'll put up some compositions some day.. that would of course belong here much more

sorry should been more clear; when it's violin and piano, I am the violinist. for the files which are JUST piano, it's me.
thanks for listening! I hope people get some enjoyment out of it. If you like the stuff maybe check out the program and track down recordings of these pieces.. I think people liking avant-garde electronica could easily enjoy (old) classical.

no I know what you mean.. and like I said I fucked it by posting something I didn't even write! But I'm pretty protective of my violin playing (hahaha gay way to write 'insecure'), maybe that's it.
It's very fun though to listen and see if the music matches the person you've grown to know, just like if their face matches what you expected.. but I'm stating the obvious now and this thread is 90% my posts so..

"and now for something completely different"?
do you like Monthy Pythons Flying Circus? i quote this phrase in everyday life. They rocked.
concerning gluck/kreisler, which i've downloaded - a touching thing. I studied violin sometimes, but forgot everything. So its sounds are nostalgic for me..

nice =) . Kreisler transcribed it from Gluck's opera orfeo; I used a bunch of transcriptions because I like 'old style' recitals.. but anyway

ha ha ha thanks =) that's one reason I posted it, I thought people would get a real kick out of it for that particular reason =)
In the Chausson Poeme clips (here's one, here's another) I do some acrobatics, if anyone wants to hear something a little bit more energetic. you can hear my aggression in those pretty clearly.
these mp3s are slightly suck because the original wavs are a minidisc randomly in the audience (in someone's coat, in fact), then I made ogg vorbis files.. then I made mp3s from those.. so yeah, sorry

wow, apparently you're really, really great at violin! neat.
do you still play it? you should write music with it. genesis p-orridge used to play electric violin when he was in throbbing gristle.

Thanks =)
I do want to get an electric violin some day! Other than all the effects shit I could do, I can practice anywhere with some headphones. See the problem is that I play FUCKING loud, and also my violin is expensive so carrying it around I have to be super protective.. right now at school, with a roommate, I don't have anywhere good to practice so my skills are getting a little fucked =(
I've written some small stuff.. I don't know if I'll ever write a big 'classical' composition for it (though I have for classes), but I may incorporate it into some electronic shit..
damn I'm sitting in this thread like a mother

yeah, but you don't suck - your practicing loudly would be great to other people. they would probably like it a lot. or just go outside or something.
and as for writing music - just make whatever sounds with it you like - don't worry about sitting down and writing some huge composition. that's what i would do...

thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed; check the Chausson if you can =) I've written a 3 minute piece for piano, and a few violin cadenzas. I don't have a strong harmonic background.. I'm simply not creative with harmony. It's lame. But yeah I'll hone it some day.

I like the piano one at the bottom of the page, and the poeme bits, raucous, impressive, moving and arousing.
Going back to what the erudite mrgypsum said, always a sage droplet can be found collecting 'neath his sac, music is better if you "know" the author/performer and I believe that's what's missing from so much music today, especially electronic: Personality. Young Mr Sneak has personality, plus brains, a foul mouth and, I dare say, spunk, and I, for one, hope to hear more from this swaggering, erudite bruiser.

Perhaps practise somewhere out doors. Try different locations. A subway station, a park. So on and so forth, let your atmospheric surroundings be your guide!

thanks for listening, and good day to you =) and to all the kind words, shit, way more than I deserve. I'll have something legitimate up some day, a composition, but it'll be minimum 6 months..
when I write something electronic, I'll make my own sofware for it, so it'll take a lot of prep for the first one..

i dont either, and if i know you from here, i would have no problem listening to it, i just hate it when some lurker here constantly posts his or her music and thats it. its like, oh heres an audience, all come listen to my crap (if its crap, which most of the time it is) im sure most people that post here are musicians and they have stuff, but they dont constantly post it here for everyone to listen to, it just gets a little trying on my patience.

You're a fucking renaissance man , ha ha ha. Gluck is very very good. I'd have the same problem here, as far as playing loud (that is, if I knew how to play any instruments). I'd like to do weird microphone stuff but it'd be rather embarrassing with someone hearing behind the wall. I've still only heard that one so far but would totally like a cd of this, whenever I can overcome heidi diller memes and listen to it. Real instruments have so much subtle detail/quality... actually that one chemical plant/sonic track emulated such quality pretty well when you look at the tones an octave lower. I know a lot of megaman tracks have tones that start normal but then sort of fluctuate up and down somehow at the end.. I'm not sure if it's volume or pitch changing, probably just the former, but it sounds really similar to professional non sucky singing. I know you can probably easily convert something like this to bits somehow and mutate it in twisted ways like crunch etc. but it's already really cool.
