Hi,
I've recently discovered the joys of soundclick, and I did a thread a short while ago for a random electronic piece I uploaded (which was only available in shit quality at the time)...
Well now that can be downloaded in hi-fi, and there's two new songs on there. If you have the time, I'd really appreciate feedback on the song "Trip", which took a fairly long time to produce, and seems to produce completely opposite reactions from different people...
thanks

i listened to Trip. it's well produced, but personally i don't really like it.
it's interesting to listen to for a while, because there are lots of things going on, lots of trickery. it's just not the kind of thing i'd want to listen to very often.

Thanks, I appreciate the honesty. The trickery was actually more more down to synth work and anal programming than anything else...:-)
Oh btw, have you had a listen to the other one now that it's up in normal quality? I seem to remember you liking it more.

"Trip" is a strange one. I think it's really great for me (and I don't mean to sound big headed), but while some people have shared my liking for it, others have reacted to it like it was a boring piece of wank. Ah well, opinions. :)

trip: kinda weird but I really like it. At first I thought "ah shit, one of these tracks" but then it surprised me and continued to surprise me until I found myself enjoying myself. really quite sexual.
odd: right from the word go I thought "yes. this is going to be good". I love your style actually. It's like completely different to anything I've heard before. What software do you use? any hardware? This track is generally really well done and fulfilling.
dynamic: this is a pleasant track. the beat is nice. the backing chime makes me think of old skool video games. Something almost oriental to it! This is definetely a chilling track. It sounds very professional if not a tiny little bit cheesy. Barely noticeable though. Good job on this one.
All in all I really like your music. It's been a pleasure listening to your tracks.

thanks!
Yeah, trip starts with a "Generic IDM track no.120293" feel, but I kind of wanted it to start like that and then morph it into something a bit more psychedelic and melodic.
Glad you liked Odd, people find the solo in that a bit too intrusive but what can you do....
I've only heard "Splash" by you, so I'll going to have a look at your other stuff. I really like listening to unsigned artists.

I use a lot of hardware, which I've collected second hand over the years, or been given: the MPC1000 (great for beats and playing samples with live), CS2x (the first synth I ever got), Novation KS5, Juno-106 Roland SV5050 etc...I use CakewalkSonar3, which is really great software as its powerful and easy to use. Lots of random plugins as well.
Are you soft-synth based or do you use hardware?

I liked "trip" a lot, excellent rave material but only if your getting into new less repetitive glitched-up rave music. Gr8t for dancing (my way at least).

I am soft-synth based only. I would love to use hardware but I find the idea kind of daunting!

Yeah, lots of cables everywhere heheh. Because I didn't know what I was doing at the beginning and just sort of found out by accident how to connect hardware and MIDI everything up to the PC, things are a lot more messy now then they could have been. I've got lots of small mixers going into the PC, for example, because I couldn't afford a big one but I kept running out of inputs for the synths. It's all a mess, but it's great fun using hardware, and I like working with a mess. :-)

If I didn't have to sign up for anything, then I would listen to it. But I don't want to have to enter an email address, wait around for an email and constantly have to reenter my identity even tho I pressed the 'remember me every time' button. I never remember my passwords for all the different music hosting sites, so I don't ever bother anymore.

Yeah. I tried downloading, and it asked me for a login. I don't want to have to sign up for stuff anymore, just so I can hear someones music. I kind of figured instead of having to browse endless ammounts of spam... that I was going to stop.
