Just so you know, VST pirating has killed the "Amateur IDM Genre", so if you're thinking about making another track with your Korg Triton sidechained to two FX buses with seperate instances of Glitch VST or otherwise (one of which has a nice Freeware compressor on it like Blockfish which really gets things to pump), try to sit down and listen to a some exotica... perhaps some Yma Sumac... and brace yourself for a rude interception of your tactless computer farts by far more interesting (see UNDERPRIVILAGED or MENTALLY AUGMENTATED (not by chemical means)) artists. Another common misconception among your types is the idea that money can buy TALENT and a right to open criticism of lauded or respected works. Sadly, this is not the case. You have to have been BEATEN as a small child, be japanese, had your parents killed professionally, or lie about the above things to be an interesting musician or to criticize the new PLAID or AUTECHRE albums. The memo is out, you are going to have to learn to play a theremin. Signing off, Jerky McMilkstain |

Can't I just be some sort of aristocratic junkie fag, instead? |

Vincent Gallo's cock is indeed fat. Far from a two-fister, though. I wonder who has a two-fist cock in the IDM game? When will the Plaster Casters get to Uwe Scmidt, William Basinski (I've heard he's hung like an exotic seamammal), or Luke Vibert? |

I can see from your buddy icon that you're beautiful. It's true. A little old for my tastes though... a little botox will surely flatten those unsightly spider-legs beside your eyeholes. |

All of idm is inferior to my beat boxing anyway. Though I am a complete master at the craft, I find it embarrassing to do in front of other people (so is similar to my existing). However in hour long car trips at night when nobody can see or hear me, the finest audio compositions ever produced are secretely crafted, heard only by me then lost forever. |

This is why I don't like idm.... |

the man/woman has a point and i'm sure most of you know it. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, that's why I prefer straight up electro, techno or just an occasional braindance session. Good quality IDM is still cool in the right dosage though! |
||||||||
|

|
|
there is no IDM, sorry |
||||||||
|
|

I don't really like IDM either. Well, autechres pretty good. But any kind of music that practically demands a computer always seems to inspire impractical wankery instead of musicality. |

man, i really gotta start making music so i can take offense to posts like this i feel so left out |

I love how someone gets published by a couple piddly labels and then they get to assume that they have every right to make sweeping generalizations about everybody that does the same thing that they do. Its not about making music for people to enjoy. Its about showing people how bid your dick is and then throwing faeces at them. |

hahah, yes. khonnor is here to school us amateurs on how to make original, ground-breaking music like his! i'm glad i asked him how he does it. |

I made no claim of having released ground-breaking music. I'm saying is that VSTs are diminishing any interest in the tiny, unremarkable niche that many denizens of expert knob twiddlers and this board tend to occupy. "But any kind of music that practically demands a computer always seems to inspire impractical wankery instead of musicality. " There you go. That's what I was getting at. "I love how someone gets published by a couple piddly labels and then they get to assume that they have every right to make sweeping generalizations about everybody that does the same thing that they do." This is where you go awry (Correct me if I'm wrong here). I've released ONE album on a piddly label that I wrote at the age of 16 that is CRAP. Even so, it's praised by critics who don't know the meaning of GOOD computer music. AS A NOTE KIDS, slap vocals on a melodic IDM record and you can get reviewed in big-wig publications like NME too! "khonnor is here to school us amateurs on how to make original, ground-breaking music like his! i'm glad i asked him how he does it. " You're boring, I've never gotten along with you, and I have no intention of doing so but if you want lessons on how to make music, try listening to something like Raymond Scottt's "Manhattan Research Inc" whenever you reach for that burned and autographed copy of that one shitty netlabel release you did and start taking notes. I regard this as one of my favorite records so listen carefully. I know how much faith you have in my tastes and interests. Thanks so much for asking. May the chafe be with you. |

I have the feeling I'm going to get rudely humbled in the rudest rudey rude way. But yes... Swear me off as the big asshole who doesn't like people's attitudes around here because I don't really come here often anyways. So long, cruel computer world! |

Calm down Khonnor! Make some music, it's much better than venting at anonymous twits. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

it's not 'CRAP' though. It's a nice listen to people that can't express themselves. |

I know. I've turned into a complete anus. A halfways between pre-embittered old mandom and sideways wit. I'm totally going to die prematuraly! Anyways, I've sent a message that is sure to get me permabanned so most folks won't have to deal with me again (unless I meet them in real life!). I don't believe that people don't LIKE the album because I know they do. Heaps of people enjoy it... But hopefully more capable music will come from this neck of the woods in the near future. It's been quite a while... and there are definite reasons for that. The sheer amount of time away from the scene is sure to diminish any credibility I've had for said album, which is precisely what I was aiming for. See you later, possibly! -Bloodstain Harris |

i feel inspired to make a track right now. |

Make it good! How about a funny ballad, or some weird koto music. |

You'll be allright. Ignore the 'scene' it's rubbish. It's Jaded idiots and clueless fools. |

Quite a bit of boring shit too, eh? Well... not much you can do but make better. All I have to say is... the interenet has had a HUGE impact on the release of good, eclectic music in the past 6 years. I could write a whole fucking diatribe, but I'll save that for some future issue of Grooves Magazine or something. Counting the minutes till I be banned! |

speaking on behalf of myself, having known khonnor for awhile now and having released music on labels and seeing what a complete joke idm (among other things, certainly not limited to) has turned into to, im going to side with khonnor, despite my need to be a good boy online and my disapproval of the method used. my solution: design vsts that when used, a giant spike will shoot out of the computer screen and directly lodge itself into the users brain. three seconds later microsoft sam says "woops" and then "soy" because if you type "soy" into microsoft sam's text program its the creepiest sounding thing in the world. though the more natural solution of nobody caring anymore about idm because most of it is god awfully bland and stale is killing it off quite nicely. at least we arent experiencing the late 90's boom of idm where acts like FIZZARUM somehow managed to get on DOMINO. whats with that shit. |

Well, the message was fine. It was the way he came across. When you are trying to make a point, it pretty much can and should be expected that comming across as a bitter eliteist douchebag is going to get you flamed. I find "computer music" generally seems tasteless and uninspired, but I don't go yelling about that all the time (Well, I do sometimes, but only when someone starts talking shit about gear). |
||||||||
|
|

I guess what I mean is, people should feel free to do what they enjoy without being shit upon for it. If you enjoy shitting on people, by all means go ahead. But don't whine when people start shitting back at you. |

correct me if i'm wrong, but this is just trolling right? i don't really know what the point of this is, or how it is constructive.. what i do know is that a lot of amateur artists aren't signed or have releases because they haven't bothered to send anything out. some people are happy to do this shit for themselves. its stupid though, i mean so what if everyone has a thousand vst units on their p.c and are making crappy music? what about the guitar? how many people are there out there with a guitar? i'll bet theres more people with guitars than vsts. when more people are making music, its just easier to cream off the best. |

1. yes, you're "the big asshole who doesn't like people's attitudes around here because he doesn't really come here often anyways" 2. "VST pirating" wtf ? have you never stolen anything ? 3. the term "IDM" was invented by people like you "Make some music, it's much better than venting at anonymous twits." - i second that, plus if you want to get banned - try a bit harder. Congrats, you've made another person NOT listen to your music and tell their friends not to listen to khonnor. bye |

i still don't know what "IDM" is, to be honest |

Are you sure about that? Hmmm. Well, maybe so. But I have more rotary encoders than you. And more sampling memory. (and as soon as I get my virus, more polyphony and timbres). |
