Hello all.
I was listening to my old stuff last night, and not to blow my own brass instrument, but one track stood out as being better than the rest. I've already spammed my EP months ago, but I thought I'd squeeze a bit more juice out of it, for this one track.
Out of all the tracks I've done, I think I'm most pleased with this one, it doesn't seem gimmicky like my other stuff sounds when I listen to it, and I think the mix is on.
Here is the song.
Its not exactly IDM, a bit Godspeed perhaps, MBV, or vetrmix type AE. Please check it, chums.

i streamed the 96kbps version, it seems to lean toward the m83 style shoegazing angle, maybe not as histrionic though. i think it suffered from the compression and shit headphones i'm using, but it was a nice change of pace from the usual. maybe not refined enough for my tastes, but under the circumstances i shouldn't be considered a credible witness.

"shoegaze" is by far and away the lamest genre name...currently taking the crown away from "emo-hop" and before that "emo"

Thanks dude. Yes I suppose it is quite M83, I hadn't thought of that really, but yeah. Thanks for your comments.

I think its quite good - its a bit tongue in cheek unlike IDM which is takes itself a bit too seriously...

"idm" is awesome cause its condescending by its connotation
plus the kids who are real "idm" or whatever are just as lame as "emo" kids or "goth" kids...
sweet...
i consider myself a part of the "soul" genre !!!
i like music with soul, of which there is less everyday
oh yeah i shoegaze when they're untied !!!

shoegaze = condescending towards the music
idm = condescending towards all other "dance" music
find the journalists who coined either of these terms and bring me their heads. i will reward you with a slice of drunken mastah's kake. be quick about it!

i always kinda liked the genre name "shoegaze" i think commenting on the fact that these musicians are always looking down at their feet to stomp effects pedals is quite apt.
