the stuff on your myspace is really good stuff (not than i'm in any position to be able to say what is good and what isn't good)
i particularly like Kitty Cups and An Open Letter To
have you been doing stuff for long?
do you have any constructive advice that might help my music to not be shit?
the way i used to start a track was with percussion prgramming first, but i felt my melodic content was suffering as a result, so i have recently been starting with notes first. but it would seem that this isn't the best approach either.
any constructive advice would be appreciated

Also, it'd be funnier if you came back as clogbelch (see, the c and the l almost make a d) instead.

oscillik I love you and when I textually have a go at you it's because I want you TO GO FOR IT and I think you can but I worry you get in thrall to the machines and don't go far with them. I can't offer advice mate as I'm not a musician and I'm not serious about making music either. Take what I say with a pinch of salt, 99% of it is for my own amusement, not to cause offence, and I hope you carry on working and I'm sure you'll get there.
My only advice is to, sure be influenced by people, but... use the machines to your own ends, force them to do what you want, make a fucking racket, turn the knobs up to 11, make something filthy, make something pristine, make something that demands to be heard, make something that says to the listener "You fucking areshole", .. you know, anything other than polite demos with machines just plinking away.
Again, disclaimer, I don't know what I am talking about. But you're a lad who feels a lot, we've all read about it, and I don't hear that in the music. And I think I should. But don't get mad, get even. As they say.

That's the thing you need to get over. Making good electronic music isn't necessarily about being technically or musically orientated. It's about making little boxes make sounds you like to hear and for you to announce it to the world as "this is MY music and fuck you if you don't like it". The Grinning Ape mentality.

Of course, you don't have to be aggressive, you can just make music because music is inside of you and requires release.

It's a shame you've no idea what you're on about, plus you're a boring cunt.

Good, fuck off, as much as I derive great pleasure at haranguing affectatious turdslips I'll let our inevitably mealy, fruitless exchange slide.

This thread is evidence that if you slap your nob across someone's face often enough they'll eventually start sucking it. I've seen it in more than a few porn vids
