[a new sound] your opinion.

i'm thinking of abandoning my music as Oddioblender and
going for something completely different. upon listening to
Throbbing Gristle for countless hours on end, I've decided
to return to my Zio Magus moniker (possibly) and the
following are some attempts at experimental and industrial
music.

If I could get some opinions on either one of these, that
would be great. Believe it or not, these are "demos" and I
plan to do more work on them. Any criticism is appreciated,
so i will know whether to keep this as sideproject or go all
out with it.

Pudding
or
Sleep Terror

I would say, if you don't feel you should go all out with
it, then don't go all out with it - seems kind of pointless
otherwise.

The vocal on "Pudding" is a bit grating after a while,
mostly due to the effect. I would definitely add some
variation in there. I like the second one more.

Out of curiosity, why do you do all of your music in mono?

panning is overrated.

on second listen, the vocals on Pudding are quite terrible.
I'll re-do them later today. Thanks for noticing.

Aphexisatwin - is the album "Music for Horrors"? If so, that
is me. :)

i think Pudding sounds too much like throbbing gristle. if
you're influenced by them, you should be influenced by their
ideas about experimentalism and improvisation, not just
using tremelo on your voice.

sleep terror was quite cool. i especially like that synth
jam thing at the end. it would be great if that went on for
longer.

I was going to say pretty much exactly what wise r40f says,
but I would've popped the word "fucking" in there about 10
times. So it's just as well he said it first.

The first one, I like the style of the intro. I haven't
heard Throbbing Grstle before, but this sounds nice. Too
much of the stutter sound though.

I don't particularly like the reverb on all the vocals
though.

got it, got it. ditching the tremolo vocals.

thank you all for your input. i was going to add some guitar
to the "sleep terror" track but everyone really seems to
like it so i think i may leave it be for now. but, i shall
change the vocals on "pudding" and post a new version here
sometime in the future.

What the fuck is with all this monkier business???

Just make music you want to make at the time you are making
it, fuck artist names/track title/genre/influences...

As it happens neither of these tracks really floats my boat.

none of my tracks ever have, it seems, but you listen
anyways, so i appreciate it.

haha, actually you are right, I don't like any of your
tracks...I have never thought about it before. I still find
it interesting to listen to your new stuff though...probably
because I think one day you will blow me away with something
staggering. I still think that at the moment you are trying
to hard to find 'your sound' by replicating the work and
style of others.

industrial def needs a shot in the arm. but to me, these
tracks are closer to goth than industrial.

I hate to be one of those people that say "i liked the old
stuff better", but i'm afraid i have to. I really did. This
does nothing for me, but honestly, i'm not into industrial
at all. The vocals dont sound that good.

So to answer your question, please keep this as a side
project. Let me do some artwork for an Oddieblender rap
demo, and send that shit out.
