Sorry for my lack of html. You should realise by now that I'm retarded at html.
sorry
Anyways this tune is like haunting melodies or whatever and I worked pretty hard on it and I hope you all enjoy it coz I liek it.
Thanking you in advance - your friend in the end
(PS haven't done any tracks in a while as I've kind of started from scratch again, but I should have some new oens up fairly soon!)

mm. I don't like this at all.
I really hate the synths. sounds like run-of-the-mill house-music to me.
it's abundant in clichées.
sorry, not trying to be mean.

sorry od, going to have to agree with qrter here.
he nailed everything that I don't like about this track, it just doesn't have the cohesion that makes your work really really good.
It's sounds just thrown together randomly, and the synth is kind of out of place too.
Just what I hear, not trying to be a prick.

it's getting hard to tell what people like. personally i love this tune.
i am considering not spamming any more tracks, just uploading them and letting everyone find them if they want to, rather than having it rubbed in their faces.
but i know i don't have a strong enough will not to spam so even though i hate myself for doing it, you guys are going to have to live it my spam (my flaws)

its not spam, dude. its self-promotion. if you dont promote your art, no one else will. and why would you promote your art? simple, you believe in it. you enjoy and like what you do. you think maybe others will too. and they will, but some people arent going to like every single track you make. i know this isnt really the issue, and im not going to get all up in your business, but take it easy dude. seriously. dont get all upset about this stuff. if you wanna talk, IM me sometime. you're a good guy, and your music is darn good too.

hey, fuck that man, the day you stop promoting your new tracks is the day I stop coming here.
We're all friends here, you win some, you loose some. As others have said, and I really belive, if you like the tunes you make, who cares?
I simply think you do better than this track, but whatever, it just one opinion.
Spam away od, I'm leaving if you stop.

Blatant - aha yeah and you don't suffer from the lack of spinal fluid liek I will! win win situation! lolz
Princo - chers mate! that snare sound was too strong for ages, had to go back and fix it, actually I rendered the finished ver of this song in FL like 5 times before I was happy with it (things fucking up, ie the snare noise was too stereo heavy, then that high pitched string note right at the end was too loud and then a bunch of other shit was fucking up, the usual stuff being too loud or whatever).
I think the reason I liek that song was that "classical" bit, coz that took fucking AAAAAAAAAAGES.
:P bit lame of me to keep replying in my own thread, but hey why not.

i like my spinal fluid

Ecstasy is the worst drug in the world If someone ever offers it to you, don't do it Kids two hits'll probably drain all your spinal fluid and spinal fluid is final, you won't get it back So don't get attached, it'll attack every bone in your back "

aha ahahaha i've done about 150 to 200 of them. my back is fiiiiine.
but then again i've heard people on this mb saying that they came down for a week after taking one pill, so uhh i dunno maybe i'm superman.
i can also fuck for 10 hours in a day and dink for 15 hours (not in same day though haha) so i guess that i must be superman.
and superman says you have to go nuts and everyone should dance because dancing is the language of fun.

as per usual, a completely ace effort by our little od_step_cloak. =]
*sets neatly in his orange dust mp3 folder*
see. yes, the synth sounds a bit out of place or whatever, but...at the same time it works. that's what i like about it. *shrugs* i dunno. i've listened to it a few times now and i'm still diggin' on it. and i think it ranks right up there with the likes of rekkinize, exceed data purge, disaster money, pressure gates, robbed!! hijacked!!, and especially dead at lunch. don't stop "spamming" your tracks, please. it'd just be a pain in the ass for me otherwise. keep it goin', guy-o! =]

I didn't like any of the synth sounds either, I'm afraid. I think the problem I have with a lot of your stuff is that it sounds too "default." Everything sounds within the lines, within the package. I don't know how to properly explain it and not sound like an idiot. It's like I can tell what program you've used, BUT that's not too fair to say since you mentioned you've started from scratch again with this track. New program(s) I guess? Some of your older tunes have had the same effect on me, though.
It (this track) would sound just fine if it were on a Game Cube game's soundtrack. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just that I doubt that's what your intention was.
Your beats are generally very well done, it seems like you have a good grasp on rhythm. It's mostly the sounds themselves that are boring to me.
I guess I tend to like things a bit more dirty sounding, production-wise. But this is all a matter of personal taste, of course.

I think I've listened to most if not all of those tracks before on that page and I'm pretty sure my favorite is "every crap idm track I've heard in rekkid stores". That track is excellent and does trickier stuff.. I like when you do strange gooey percussion weirdness. The track posted in this post had great polyphony in parts, something I still generally suck at, but it wasn't really tricky or weird. And still my favorite all time track by you is probably that one on the old orange dust mp3.com dam cd audio correction fluid, um... I forget what it was called but I've mentioned it before to you anyway.
