"1. You come off as totally arrogent. You went around to all
these MB's to spam your compition. Ok, cool... BUT thats all
you talked about. And even months after thats over, all you
talk about is you, and your music, and your album.''

"
5. Basically, I just see you as a failing artist, who is
cleverly using the internet as a tool to promote your music.
And there is nothing wrong with promotion. But, you did it
in a very self centered way imo."

Another pot kettle black scenario.

AHAHAH.
all zeus ever did was "promote" his own music and whine
about autechre.
global goon owns him.

gg and zeus...

both people who want everyone to listen to their 'greaaat'
music...

altho i must admit gg is quite good ...

but theyr all the same...

its sad to act like this if you are a established artist,
and if you havent created a fanbase etc yet you shouldn't
act like 'yo man listen to my music, caus its like giving
and taking' bla bla...

im happy with everyone listening to my tracks, but i cant
give a shit for kcinsu.com and all the promotional crap... i
mean if the music is ok things will come with time

My view entirely. Okay, if you've done a track you're really
proud of, by all means share it, but don't go hounding
people to listen to it.

theo: EKT is Expert Knob Twiddlers, the RDJ/MikeP
collaborative effort.

The competition everyone is talking about was this thing a
couple months ago where global goon had unestablished
artists remix one of his new bits and then they won some
records... pretty good promational idea imo.
------------------------------------------------

I don't understand why Zues feels the responsibility to call
GG out. To me, this appears to be a much lower form of self
promotion..

And another thing.. why are we even hearing about it? If
Zues left the board, then I really don't think he needs to
send messages to the rest of us through his peers.
------------------------------------------------

most of these rappers are talking shit out of the side of
they neck
what the heck?
It's more and more suckas gettin' signed for less, less,
less, and less
and lesson 1: if aiming to impress, press, press,
you gotta do it yourself
quiet as kept, kept, kept,
if my work is respected I collect checks, checks, checks,
they cain't all bounce and if they do I got an ounce at the
rest

Now that Zeus has left XLT and posts at WATMM, does that
mean we can expect an influx of WATMM refugees, eager to get
away from him?

"its sad to act like this if you are a established artist"

does being "established" make you different, or special? why
shouldnt goon let people listen to his new music? isnt that
what these boards are all about? electronic music?

Man, Zeus was a dick. Jar was telling me about some thread
where someone had asked who they reckoned on the board was
most likely to become a famous musician or whatever. Guess
who put their own name forward. What a twat. I loved the way
he posted pictures of his "studio" as well. Oh man that's
pointless. I don't care how much equipment he has. You can
have the best stuff and still make the shittest music.
Although having nice stuff does help. I'm glad he doesn't
post here anymore. I would make a point of avoiding any of
his threads for fear of being hounded to listen to his
music. How funny it'll be if he's reading this now. Hello
Zeus! You're an egotistical, self absorbed talentless
wanker. You will never make it in the music industry. You're
music is unoriginal and boring. I don't think it's too harsh
to say that Avril Lavigne has more talent in her nipples.
Sk8ter Boi is as good as Come to Daddy compared to your
songs. They SUCK!

i dont think your tracks suck zeus, they are competant, but
uninspired. Technically fine, but soulless.

they would make ok elevator music (mainly because one would
only be in the elevator for 10 seconds or so)

He he! Look at the Zeus bashing now he has gone...

I remember that thread between him and Theo. Zeus' site
promo thread became a slagging match. I think that summed up
the way people felt pretty accurately.

Nothing against the guy personally as he was always civil to
me, but he did seem to greatly over estimate how good his
music was. Perhaps if he had 5 or 6 groupies on the board
who always told him his music was great it'd be
understandable, but as it was, no one ever really encouraged
him yet he still go this idea he was the next big thing in
electronica. Kudos to GG, he is an IDM b-list artist (by his
own admission), yet he was comparatively humble and open to
criticism...

I don't think it's quite fair to flame zeus now that he's
not a member on xltronic.com anymore.
if you have a problem with him, simply mail him.
I personally don't like this schoolyard behaviour.
but that's just me. closed.
