I have a new track I did all by myself, so tell me if you like it. I've been jamming out to it recently and I think some of you will enjoy it - and if you're like me you like enjoying music too. And if you dont like it, at least you heard something new and different. And if you tell me why you didn't like it, I promise my next track will be better :D
attackingwithmechanicallimbs
also if you enjoy this track, check out Attaching Mechanical Limbs, which got me a few thumbs up from some people.
peace

Hi, I listen to music.
Sorry, I can't download you're tracks, I'm on a government computer and that sort of behaviour is not allowed. Sigh.
But I'm sure they are good! Keep up the (probably) good work!

BSAT3 - this is sweet. Very organic and open sounding. Nice beats, cool ending.

oh thanks. yeah its organic coz i used a lot of natural noises like hitting off a metal table and stuff. I find that approach more rewardin than using normal drumsounds sometimes moooooo

I like doing sounds like that to make beats, but I dont do it enough. Did you actually sample metal hitting the table?

yeah. i just use a shitty wee mic and like get a fork and hit it of a metal table. then i edit the sounds and make a whole kit using various noises and then put the noises into a drum sampler and arrange em and stuff. its a cool method to come up with weird sounds. and its cheap!

The white noise is neat, sounds like it fades away after it comes in like little white misty raindrops.
I don't like the volume level on the sounds that come in quick, maybe a melody, before the bells.
When the whining sound came in I immediately thought my cat was having a seizure until I realized it was the music. This makes me happy. Maybe I shouldn't listen to music this loud.
Not enough volume changes for me, keeps it really ambient sounding, but for some reason it doesn't seem like what you were going for. Maybe try raising the levels on the drums to give it a little more energy so there's more contrast between that and the ambient parts. Maybe not volume, but something? I hate using words like this, but it sounds "dry"
Partially, after listening to it again, because the initial drum beat and white noise effects are much more energetic than the rest of the piece. It seems to climax very early and the rest is a gradual downward spiral into ambient land.
I might give it a listen later and try to make suggestions if you're planning on working it through again.
I've got a DrillnBass track up on another thread if you feel like checking it out, I'm recompressing the "right" way and then uploading... so like 30 minutes or so and I'll update the thread

Listened to it again... there's a lot going on, it's complex, it's very subtle, it's just confusing from an energy point of view. I like it quite a bit.

thank you sir, a very helpfull review :)
The problem with the production quality is mainly fruityloops fault - I have a few sounds that I wanted louder (then I could turn up some other volumes to match it) but floops would only make it go so loud. Thus it sounds a bit 'flat' because the mixing is shit.
yeah I want to hear your drillnbass track!

It's very cool weathered, i like the production in how you use dynamics ie. thin/fat, wide/narrow.
My mate Phil likes it too although I agree with him that it's perhaps a little Aphexy.
On that subject, although not related specifically at weathered's track, I'd say the last thing people should do right now is sound like Mr James.

What the heck is wrong with sounding like Mr. James? I aspire to reach such levels of genius, and I'm gonna imitate him all to hell.
He imitates all kinds of artists. Almost all his sound isn't "his own"... especially his early stuff.
The key is, of course, to be able to move on past that, into your own sound. But I don't think anyone posting tracks up here is even close to that. Yeah, maybe if you're just looking to get sold on an "original sound" but I'm sure as hell not going to sell out that quick... gimme a year or two, then ask me again
Got two tracks floating around that are new within the last three days... don't know where my threads went though, Marsupial and some other one

Cos if your stuff just sounds like an AFX rip off people will think
"AFK rip off".
Now, if you want to do that it's up to you but music that impresses me is stuff that's good for good's sake, not good for Richard's.
Oh, and don't expect a record deal either.
There's a huge difference between citing musical references/using style or genre 'waypoints' (for want of a better expression - it's 4:31am) and being a derivative and uninspired copyist.
Obviously, I accept one learns one's trade from a master, but I am pointing out that pepole who's sole musical output consists entirely of making music like Richard are people who's music just ain't as interesting as those whose stuff is an attempt to be themselves.
There IS a difference. That's why I made sure to say (above) that I wasn't really alluding to weatheredstoner's track, since that is good music imho.
It may remind me of AFX, but it's obviously not made by some talentless copyist.

okay.. mechs travel west- interesting melodies, the drums could use some more variation possibly, but i like how they come in and out like that.. i was expecting a western sounding track, but this was more asian sounding or something..
attachingmechanicallimbs remix - this is probably the best track i've heard from you. much more fast pased than the original, but still keeps the general feeling of the origina. very interesting.
and sorry.. i don't think i downloaded the right track(s)

no you dl/ed the right tracks. thanks for your input!
About mechs travel west - I can see how you expected a western sounding track, but I think the song represents the Mechs leaving from the East to travel West, instead of just taking place all in the west :)
