Ah I really don't think he was being serious. He listens to a lot of new music, like me, which can crush your soul at times because there's a lot of average stuff. Being a music nerd is a terrible burden :((((((( |

Can we, should we, level this all at Tolstoyed? As far as I know he's a big fan of "music". I think.. times are changing, the old guard are meant to keep up developing whilst newcomers just pick up the existing "sound" without doing the groundwork. There's problems of perception, of a lack of, or too much, history. It's tricky times what with technology and that, give it 5 years, let it settle. |

haha, you shouldn't take for real everything i say..autechre weren't as exciting as i expected, as for pop and idm..i love music, do i need to say more :) i don't know what i'd do without it..probably not much.. |

Well its a loose statement. Sure by IDM standards IDM is getting a bit tiresome. That could be looked at two ways. 1. The person tired of it has been over saturated in the genre by listening to too much at once, meshing everything into a samey grey genericness. 2. The genre itself is flooded with weblabels with artists that effectively replicate their favorite artists. Those artists far outnumber the ones that produce original thought, thus making the genre seem bleak. But then again IDM is just a term. I have heard good recommendations from Goran which werent IDM. It felt refreshing. I think only the big names are capable of keeping interest in this small tightknit community until these developing weblabel artists advance their skill. [/end ramble} |

i think most weblabel artists are developing it's skills and hopefully there will come a big explosion very soon from those artists..artists are born everyday, every where, so is music. |
||||||||
|

Thats what i expect to happen within the next couple of years. There are a couple of artists here that i have my eyes on that make wonderful music. |

no. most weblabels are rubbish. they are rubbish because the music is not worth promoting |

I don't like the singer in deerhoof. why do all Japanese women have to sing that way? |

Tolstoyed has introduced me to more musicians than anyone else in the world. Be proud of that Goran. I'm thankful :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see, but do you actually listen to any of those? :D |
||||||||
|
|

I'ts honest IDM rock!! ha ha! there is nothing wrong with being cererbrel but they can squash a few styles without losing the audience. Respect! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

it's quite satisfying to introduce Goran to something he has never heard before and he really likes. it's also quite hard to pull off. |

I really need to know were your avatar is from or else I will die painfully. |

that's not always true. |

apple_bomb was kind of badass! I am surprised. I will have to listen to more. I like how her voice is gentle |
||||||||
|

|
|
i'd be hapy for you to give me 2 exceptions |
||||||||
|
|

in theory, the music is good and the artists are getting promoted by having their music put out there. promotion is the whole point of a good netlabel. it shouldn't just be a vanity imprint - it should be promotion for good artists trying to get their music heard all over the world. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm, you introduced me to a number of bands..always looking forward to your recommendations. i found out about a LOT of fantastic music on this site - you people have excellent taste! (well, most of you hehe). giginger, im glad to hear that! virginpusher, check out 'milk man' album, not a bad track on it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are right but at the same time i think wrong. are they not grabbing onto false dreams and mediocre bullshit on the off chance little or no cash "signing" can bring the owner financially incentive rewards? or do you think people do this out of love for music? a nice sentement at least... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry tolst! I felt obliged to make an o[[osite to your mono posts. It is slightly comforting that you have settled down. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i know why i do it, and it's because i like the music. yes, it's a mutually-promotional tool (the artists and label are being promoted), but other than that i'm not out to "get" anyone. i haven't made a cent off it and never expected to (although i did pay out of pocket for the site). i don't know why others do it, but i've enjoyed a substantial number of net-releases which have led to me buying the artists' other works. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well you've done the same for me! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks for that..i'll be more carefull what i say in the future.. i know i shouldn't be that way, especially because i can't make music myself..but i also thought everyone knew me by now and so know that the only band i really dislike are radiohead :) |
||||||||
|

Not entirely true. I know i will never be signed. I just want to have a chance to have people listen to what i make. I like to hear feedback and when someone gives me positive feedback then thats all the payment i need. I know that sounds a tad silly but seriously, the genre of music that we like and support is a real small one. Smaller than that is the fanbase. I plan on saving up money so that when me and anders finish our next album i can send it to everyone for free. People seemed to enjoy it last time so i thought we could do it as a thank you. I plan on working a typical m-f 9-5 job. I have no hopes or expectations otherwise |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i agree with the mutual (limited) promotional exposure but other that that i can only see it as some fun |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've enjoyed these so far! Thanks again! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what's wrong with some fun, then? and meeting interesting people? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shouldn't you thank jivver? :) either way, you're very welcome! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nothing. but by fun i mean personally in that you can say you're signed, or whatever |
