Sorry about the criticism, I don't remember if it was constructive or not. Probably not since I havn't been putting much effort into my writing lately, not to mention my pictures and animation... Don't take it too seriously, I DID say that bodybaggin was the best track on the station in my opinion at least. That track ruled. It's not "cute", it's a classic example of a disturbing song. It's quite violent, it reminds me a lot of download "eyes of stanley pain". There's actually a lot of melody in bodybaggin too, so you ARE good at organizing tones (imo).

I listened to syncrospank and it's excellent too (though not as good as bodybaggin I think). This is more lighthearted I guess but still at the end there's percussion hits placed violently purposely without regard to symmetry. In this one, there's a sound that could be classified as a "percussion" hit sorta, but it follows a melody... this is the reason squarepusher got boring to me I think. Almost all his percussion is the same tone from what I remember. If you listen to an aphex song like "flim" you can hear the same persussion sound being played in different pitches. I think he did it on the RDJ album a lot too. It sounds way better. Have you ever tried to have ALL your percussion sounds follow the dominant melody by changing tone at the same intervals as the melody? I've been doing that a lot recently because I like the results.

Listened to proxytoxy again... Sometimes when I'm in the process of making a song it sounds good but doesn't at all when I listen to it later. This composition isn't as horrible as I might have carelessly remarked. I like it less than your other songs on the station though. maybe I just don't like the melody that much. It sounds like the inspiration was to make something chaotic and violent but maybe there was some weird happyish feelings mixed in which turned out weird, hehheh. If it is even possible to attribute feelings to the vibrations of molecules in the air. Physics makes emotions and feelings seem stupid. BTW my finished version of +8+8+ or whatever I called it is approved now. It's called "the flush of mr squiggles". You might want to replace it, or not... I never update my station anymore, heh heh.

did you design that reptile dude? You should see the cover of "implode" by front line assembly, it's wicked.

hey mWm..thanks for all the nice words..yeah I am kinda insecure about proxytoxy put a lot of effort in that sucker..but if the odd happishness comes thorugh..I think I succedded, I meant the tones and moods to be at odds:) yeah bodybaggin is my song to beat even for my self..though I am quite happy with some of the Marzipan Dolphin songs I am working on that I am yet to upload...plus I am currently collaborating with korben dallas..we will keep you posted..email me and we can some more regular exchanges (address is in my profile)..I find yer appearances here too sporadic..
oh the gif is the mugwump from Naked Lunch..I wish I could take credit for it but that eternally clever bastard Cronenberg visualized him..from Burrough's descriptions..and yes the FLA's Implode has fantastic coverart...it's done by Dave McKean one of my all time favourite illustrators..did a lot of covers for Vertigo comics and especially Sandman...
