It sounds like a million other mp3s, i don't know, to be
honest i like all your albums but this endless foisting of
average tracks that sound like 80s b-sides from no-mark
bands doesn't do anyone any favours. But that's just MY
opinion, and I know shit about fuck-all.

I was hoping you might say "I appreciate that, but to be
honest what I'm trying to de here is...XYZ" or "Look, that's
all very well but if you listen to this that or the other
aspect what you'll see is that..." but no. What I cannot
ABIDE is the idiot savant approach adopted by IDM musicians,
fine no one expects anyone to say what a track "means", but
to push the same-old-same-old bollocks but which, by virtue
of the synths being hand-tooled apparently suddenly should
become "unreproachable" ala Cylob, i think is a wet cock
slapped about the face of the fans.

good, bad and in-between. I value your opinion too, now let

The greatest thing about your music is that it has that
trademark goon sound to it. When it's on you know what you
are listening to.

This was a fun little track but i wish there was a bit more
to it. I was expecting a bit more to occur within the sounds
or the incorperation of other sounds to diversify the track
a bit.

I like what you have so far but i would like to see this one
a bit further down the road!

Thanks for sharing!
:D

I'm not sure about your style and what you intend to do and
so on but I feel this track is a little flat. All the sounds
in this track are quite plucky and this brings a feeling of
flat flat flatty non depth

I'm sorry I have nothing of use to say

good effort

I'm not fucking angry (well I am, but not with the music of
the Goon), I just get cross that, as I say, i really like
all the albums from Mr Hawk up until even the last net
release one which i can't remember what it was called but I
bought, but I am not sure of the wisdom of an
established artist posting works in progress for people to
comment on. Because the latest things have sound distinctly
ordinary, and what I liked was the stuff that sounded
unique. I'd rather hear what one person (maybe the Goon)
wanted to make rather than some track made up of the
decisions of a very dubiously qualified committee of amateur
musicians. Bottom line: This shit didn't happen 10
years ago, and music was better then.

I loved the track! Good shit! I don't think you need to
"harden up" unless it comes naturally! Just make the tracks,
and evolution will take you where you need to be.

Sorry Bowie, sorry I didn't glibly say "It's happy IDM" or
"Great". I think you have done some of the greatest tracks
in the genre but there you go, that's what you think,
"fuck you", fine, I leave the thread.

this track fits in that category.

Honestly Goon, you don't need a step by step commentary. Do
you remember the track that got you signed to rephlex? Post
it now if you think it's a sure fire thing. Fuck what every
arm chair critic thinks! make your music.

i like this track, it makes want to dance, and that is a
very good thing, BUT...can you make it longer, it seems like
you are, another good thing about it, its sound staight out
of the 80's, and that is another very good thing - if you
crank this it intensifies the awesomeness.

what i have not heard is some VOCAL stuff mixed in...

MAKE IT HUMAN!!!

YOU ARE MAKING THIS ON SOFTWARE>.. go balls to the walls and
start doing some robot voices over it!! hit the harmonics
that your synth melodies have yet to do... make the in
between music layered more... by simply adding some vocal
things

do i make any fucking sense?
