electronic music i get very little feedback. so if anyones
bored or stupid enough to check out one of my mp3's at
http://www.zebox.com/taffmonster and could give me some
useful feedback, well.... ill kiss thier feet or something

wow, that first song was pretty slick - -
I'm not into the whole acoustic guitar electronic
integration thang, but bias aside I thought the track was
nice..
I love the chopped up vox ~2:30 .. loved it actually! you
pulled that off well. the sounds work well .. the synth
textures and notes floating in and out are great too. good
production.
youi could add some spice to the drums as far as complexity
goes, but maybe that was yr goal, to keep it simple.. either
way, great tune, listening to it again now..

song slowed it pitchjed it played one backwards one forwards
to amke harmonies and then chopped it for the other bit.
glad u liked the chopped vocal bit :) thanks again

they were quite nice... I like having natural analogue
sounds (like guitars or whatever) programmed as data in
software, because then you can control it way better.

I think the chopped up voices are perhaps a bit excessive. I
think it throws u a bit but I'm probably nitpicking. I think
it would be nice if the volume wasn't so high on the chopped
up voices section. I don't know its pretty good, I think I
could definitely listen to this a few times. I think when
the chopped voices are taken out close to the end of the
track that is a bit abrupt. Yeah thumbs up good job 8 out of
10 possibly 8.5. Need to listen to that again. :-) Like your
face thing on the side.

autechre feel :)

Taff,

'indusogenic' yeah thats ok. I suppose its as you said, it
really sounds like Autechre which is probably not a good
thing 'cause it doesn't make u sound to individual. Not
saying its bad track though. Have you got any more tracks
for us listen to?

The first track was certainly a breath of fresh air with so
much stuff I hear, I guess the music is pretty weak, so that
made a change. :-)

I really like this tragic cut tune, its really nice and
mellow
would like to hear more like it
would be a lot nicer imo without the cut up vocals, and just
a progression of what was already playing prior to them
but excellent work, keep it up

arg... my network is slooow.

The songs kept buffering, and it was quite annoying.

Ill try again later, see if the connection is better.

But from the little I heard, it had promise :)
