Please post your website with music. I want to hear what everyone is making, and I'd like to know what everyone thinks about everyone else. Some people like the "Cornwall Feel" while others like the "London Thing". Just let me know where your music is, and I will post what I think, and you do the same. Here is where you can find mine. It will be in the music section: This is my homepage, and it also has a lot of other things, but this thread is primarily for music. And remember, if you post here, the feedback may not be what you expect, so lets all keep a level head. Thank you in advance, Leo DeBoe. |

I did a similar post awhile ago and emailed everyone some feedback. I'll also review everyone that posts here that I havn't already reviewed and maybe those that I already have too. My music is at www.mp3.com/artificialselection To keep some sort of order, I suggest that everyone that posts reviews EVERYONE else that posts. And put the name of the person you're reviewing first in your review like this. mr projectile: bla bla bla bla. |

Artificial Selection: Your stuff is very odd. I like the melodies, at least the consistant ones. But I like the µ-Ziq style of melody. But all in all, very nice. Try out some harder percussion, though. |

Leo Deboe: I was going to wait until a lot of people posted then review everyone, but I guess no one else wants to play! You definately have a few songs that I would like to have on cd. Standout songs are Deep office fishe and the melody from gyro pleasure. On second listen, jellyfish sex sounds a lot like bellyache. Deep offishe fish is a good blend of being complicated but still a comprehendable beat, kinda like the second song on the second cd of tri repetae by autechre. |

HI my names JON. me and my freind used to be in a hardcore band (rockmusic not electronic) and we decided to try our hand at blending the too. these recordings kinda suck to us but alot of non-techno experienced people like them so it makes us happy. most subject matter is dark inside jokes between me and my freind. all recorded with guitars, bass, dishwasher, pots, telephone, girl having orgasm, synths, acid, and fruity loops in a bed room with a lamp and a thing of bud light. we are 18. if u like it please email us if not. go to hell. http://www.mp3.com/ind thnx J>L>A |

Jon (industry 7): I think invisible manipulation was a pretty good psychotic song. All that background yelling ended up pretty cool. It'd be pretty hard to compete with maralyn manson/ nine inch nails/ download if you're going for absolutely psychotic. Your other songs weren't that great. Often a phrase was spoken and then looped making it too obvious that its a sample. The second song on your page sucked in my opinion, so I guess I have to go to hell like you said. I guess the sound reflects the cheesy equipment you use. I use the cheese too, though. |

thanx for the critisism. we are about o get better equipment. this was more of an experiment. it sound cheesy to us too, but we think it will get better weve only been doing this for like a month or so. thnx jon p.s. you don't have to go to hell. |

Rob Fragilenine: You already know I like your music. I downloaded g987, and thought it was pretty cool too. It's pretty chaotic and doesn't take itself seriously, like a fun videogame. It gives the feel of a simpler version of come to daddy mummy mix. Ambisplot is still my favorite so far. |

I'm sure you're all bored with my shite. I haven't done any new shit, but if anyone hasn't checked out my stuff then by all means do, please. URL in location bit. Leo: You music's pretty minimal, at least from the tracks I heard the other day on your site (nice site by the way ;) ) but I certainly liked what I heard. You can string a melody or two together, that's for sure. Keep it up. M: Listened to the first two tracks on mp3. First song has a really fucked beat with a weird little cheap synth lead. Interesting beat, but didn't do anything for me unfortunately. Great sounds though. What synths do you use? I can hear a lot of computer game-type sounds, which might comne from a QuadraSID or something. Very 8-bit computer chip. Some more mad shit on the second tune with what sounds like some cut-up vocals a la BoC. Some great sounds, but I really missed a little tune or two. Jon: I checked out your first two songs too. The first one really reminds me of Orbital (just that particular synth patch, mainly) and has got some rather fucked up vocals (you?). There's quite a bit of tension in there, huh? ;P Fairly hardcore, I'd say... Second track - don't like the distorted kick (just reminds me of gabber when on a 4/4 *shudder*. It could really do with something else on it, as the bleep in the background gets on my tits. I do like the weird vocal shit you've got going on in the background, though. TekN010G: 1st track: Nice stuff. I wasn't too sure about the synth patches - what do you use? But there's some pretty cool rhythms in there. 2nd track: Like the start, cool build. Waiting for something to kick in... I reckon it'd be cooler if something really kicked in after the tense opening, as the 4/4 beat doesn't sem powerful enough. Hope you guys don't mind my comments. If you could check out my stuff I'd appreciate it. Cheers, Chris. |

TekN010G (serial rate)- gesner tetner- I'm guessing that's some acronym you came up with. It's hurts too figure it out. I guess I'm supposed to critique this or something. I forgot why I even like music. It's pointless for me to say whether I like or dislike something, it's subjective and no one cares. I suppose I like your music. The first 2 songs had a distinctive personality- nice to listen to, macine feed wasn't very good. It's probably one of those songs that needs multiple listens because it is complicated and the brain can't understand it the first time around. The third song had personality but it was too long, I didn't listen to it all. I suppose I can understand how you made this organized sound and therefore, for some reason, it no longer presents a puzzle or a challenge and isn't really interesting. It's still fun to listen to and see different blends/ flavors/ mixes of the same basic idea. I guess I like the mental part only of music only or something. I feel this way about everyone else too not just you. So far, I like everyone's stuff that I've heard about equally. This review didn't even make sense, you caught me on a weird day. Sorry, it was good though. |

od (orange dust) I think I go through phases where I only like creating music and then where I only like listening to others. I forget why I even create "music" until I'm inspired by other people like aphex/autechre. Why any genius would focus their most powerful attention to creating a piece of organized sound is beyond me. It's partly neurotic I think. Your songs are cartooney and great. It reminded me of why I even listen to music, because I think I forgot for awhile. It's entertainment. It allows your brain to play with itself. Aside from videogames, music is my next favorite entertaining thing. Without these 2 things, I'd probably just shoot myself- the rest of my time and most everyone else's is spent selling my soul to whatever hellish beast to make money 8 fucking hours a day at least. This music is similar to the type of cartoons where anthropomorphic animals outsmart eachother by killing eachother more thoroughly with more inventive bombs and gizmos each time. It's probably good for quite a few multiple listens before the entertainment value would wear off, like anything else. This stuff is very entertaining, I think it has something that for some reason attracts me to it more than the other stuff I've heard. I guess I feel like writing today. This post will be erased from existance eventually, but I guess written words are recorded and preserved and last longer than spoken ones. But who cares. Or something. |

deleterboy: I was just going to drop by and check out a song or two but I was so impressed I'm reviewing you out of order. I think I'll download all your songs. This is the best stuff I've heard in quite awhile. You definately have a similar and great style throughout all your tracks. There are so many subtle things, it sounds like you took forever on each track. And it's the type of music that actually sounds really really good even though it does something quite different from the ordinary. It sounds like complicated percussion except half of the intricate drums are replaced by sounds that change pitch and create terrific melodies. I'd really like to hear your new stuff too. Thanks for bothering to upload them all so morons like me can be entertained by them. |

Ochre: Thanks for being one of the few to review other people back. My stuff sounds 8 bitish, I know, because I use a completely free crappy program (modplug tracker) and the same old pallette of samples for all my songs. I do actually have some melody songs: sidia ocean, plight of inchworm, & blue crayons from melted smurfs. I'd rather you be honest like you were, and I'm pretty used to people not liking my music so no problem. Thanks for listening! Your music is more serious than most of the others. I listened from the top all the way down to electroshock stopclock. The stuff towards the bottom seems quite different from the stuff on the top (I like the top better). The bottom stuff sounds like it has influences of playing in a non-electronic band. Your style seems to be to have drums on one side and melodies on the other, a fine distinction between the two. The drums are short bursts of sound and the melody tones are much longer bursts. Low gravity freefall high altitude mix (my favorite) does this quite well. In most of your other songs, the melodies were quite good, but some of the drum patterns were rather weird (electroshock stopclock). They have an awkward beat. (Low grav had a nice beat though). Some of your songs took some weird turns like moonlight sonata. I think that when you bring a whole lot of different elements into a composition, it makes it less self-similar and not sound as good actually. Fractals look so cool because they are self similar. |

Jamiroquai: i really like your tunes, somehow i never get sick of travelling without moving. I always listne to it on long walks. The digeridoo tracks are the best ever.

M, I mean 8-bit-ish in a good way, I like lofi beats and sounds, I just like nice tunes too. I'll have to have a listen to those other tunes. Yeah, the Low Grav remix is my latest track, while Moonlight Sonata was my first track, written about a year ago (I just chucked everything into that track, probably an unwise idea). I reckon I'll continue in the vein of Low Grav and Children Playing With Lego. Cheers for listening anyway, 'preciate it. Hope everyone on this board continues to make music. |
