Its perfectly fine for heads to not enjoy my music. Infact,i
would feel a little strange if everyone enjoyed everything i
did. I'm sure it would feel awesome for abit,but it would
just turn out to be kind of strange. So if you dont like
it,thats fine. Ive noticed some producers on message boards
get all wound up over people disliking there material. I
suppose starting off promoting on msgboards,its just
something you learn to deal with.

I appreciate the comments on the track. Glad some people
could get into it. I never stated that my music,or this
album,was going to breakground.. its just music i enjoy
producing,and various other people enjoy as well. thats it.


PS

Lead singer from Deicide used to live next to me :-|

Very well, you will be the Bad Cop and I will be the Good
Cop.

Now put on your interrogation gloves while I offer the
subject some chewing gum.

Oh, the guy with the cross burned into his forehead? I bet
he's not so happy about that little life changing decision
any more. I'm still wondering when he'll be Born Again and
go on the preachin' circuit. There's lots more money in
Christianity than Satanism these days...

I remember he was living next to me because it was around
the time Deicide went bankrupt,and he was living with his
brother. I remember fondly of him mowing the lawn. The odd
thing was,the house he used to live in right next to a
Methodist Church,no shit.

interview with him in the onion just a couple of years ago.
a dim bulb to say the least.

Well good, I figured either that or the drugs were to blame,
and drugs have a bad enough name already.

Yeah he lives in Florida now,i presume with his wife and
son,who by the way is named DAMIEN. so lame. I also remember
his brother (who worked as a roady for Deicide) giving me a
box of old deicide stuff,like tshirts press photos etc. And
some old shit of Glens that was pre-Deicide. He was
originally in bands in the Buffalo NY/Niagara Falls area i
think. But i cant be certain.

Anyhow,he/they suck. I wore a Deicide tshirt once(the one
with Jesus flayed on the front) and i felt like an idiot.
Then i sold the box of Deicide stuff to this guy i know for
$100.

that is the Story of Wisp & Deicide.

at least we can all agree that deicide sucks. i guess
that's pretty universal.

hey lobe/wisp/Reid person, what venue will you rock in
Holland?

Don't perform just in the big cities in the west you hear

Also, could someone please explain what Honor Beat actually
means? Is it like honors chemistry? Is it like the honor
system for sampling, like take a penny, leave a penny?

i think it is an allusion to the classical "rule of thumb"
and a commentary on the struggle of gay marriage rights in
an increasingly neoconservative landscape.

and you all thought this wasn't groundbreaking work! pfft!
redrum an me know the truth about our boy wizp!

lol.

initially,it was going to be Nobel Beats,or Honrable Beats.
But Honor Beats looked better,and i think sounds better.
Also,its a reference to the native american Honor Beat. Im
not native american,but the beats are used in native
drumming to honor battle. Its used as an accent beat,i think
in the chorus of there songs used in Pow-Wows. That was the
clincher for the title. Kind of a happy accident,but it made
me choose the title over the others.

That's pretty cool, and I'm glad you told me because
otherwise I was going to start calling it Gaijin Penis Robot
Monkey Monkey.

I think there is a certain charm to the facelessness of IDM,
so when someone is right there telling you the meaning of
the phrase 'honor beats' it feels funny but its not really
relevant to anything. I like jungle breaks and nice thick
synth melodies and I like wisps music, I dont think about it
much further than that. And I think Nrthndr might be my
favourite bit of wispage actually

yeah. i like album titles to be able to relate to the
tracks,or track content somehow. but different strokes fur
different folks.

Naw fuck that. How many times did Mille Plateaux release an
album with a CD cover that was white with a slightly darker
white rectangle on it, and titles like "paper" and "the"?
Around 2004/05 I started finding lots of those in the used
bins.

I don't mean that music should have as much semantic content
or meaning as a novel... it should be more like a poem, with
the titles, the music and the album cover hinting at things
and letting you fill in the rest. Tim Hecker does that total
package thing super well even though you might call his
stuff minimal ambient. But god, spare us the bland glass of
milk minimalism please. Now there's something that's been
done to death.

(the other end of the spectrum is just as bad, the "lol I'm
gonna be wacky" nonsense complexity bad attempts at humor or
something)

i agree with all of that.

then again, there's the angle you could take as an artist...
titles are kind of a pain in the ass a lot of times - i'd
rather not worry about them at all most of the time...
forcing something just for the sake of having a title is
where the trouble lies, imo. "untitled" would be better
than something trite or "clever".
