okay..I hace the third an final of the track I wann consider sending for demos it's here
QoMA
those who have the other two songs already please load them into your play list in the following order
1.QoMA 2.Fold and Facilitate 3.Porntorn
those who dont have the other two tracks and want them..they are here
fold and facilitate and porntorn
I know my stuff doesnt sound like it but there is a method to my madness..the ending of QoMA leads into the beginning of Fold and Facilitate and so on...
QoMA has a more irregular beat work..tthe beatwork consolidates a bit of Fold and Facilitate and solidifies on Porntorn where a melody of sorts is also introduced..until it all falls apart towards the end of Porntorn...or at least that's my theory anyway and yerg banf it I am standing by it...
please let me know if I am barking up the right tree or the wrong one..
cheers:)

mm yes, Flea, I like it.. like how the beat drops in, kind of sneaky, so it feels like it sidled in or something.. :)
mm.. although over the whole of the track there is the danger that it sounds a bit "samey".. like it needs a break or something...
anyway, send those demo's!

on the cover I havent decided yet..I like the abstract vector/3D imagery..but the bunny idea..of Iroel kinda stuck with me too..I have done some of these in the past...
http://bigblacksexcop.deviantart.com
as far as the label goes so far I have decided on Tigerbeat6 Schematic planet mu and MAS
any input from you will be muchly appreciated:)

I would try warp too, why not?
also, you could try mego, although I'm having a hard time finding out whether they even accept demo's (they don't reply to my e-mail, so I'm figuring I'll just send a demo to their post-adress - kind of force it down their throat...)..
Fat Cat maybe?
Skam?

That art it's really cool and would fit your music very much...
But still even the bunny would be nice since it makes a nice contrast to your alienating music...

You're music is already better than a lot of stuff on labels. just look at dino felipe's album. getting money would be nice of course. being semi famous in the subculture would be weird, being asked for interviews, searching for your name on google to see what comes up (what final name are u choosing for your demos?), people discussing your music in messageboards. that would be hard to do with so many musicians and so much software. I'm pretty sure it's only big labels that'd care if you play live. I'd never want to do that.

no, I don't think you have to be established.. warp has a reputation for "stealing" acts from smaller labels, yeah, but they still accept demo's..
I say: why not try warp/skam/rephlex? your chances of succeeding are smaller than with smaller labels, but that doesn't make it not worth a try..
personally, if I would get signed by schematic, I would faint. :)

thanks again guys..like I said yes I want to try em all eventually but I figured out the postage etc and the costs involved and they are like.....ouch..but another thing is that I dont to do is to send em out till the Xmas New Year mail out rush and holidays are done with..becuae it takes a week or so to get the things mailed from down here to northern hemisphere...I know I know I am boring you all with logistics..bt yes..I am fully underway..and the design ideas..might end up being a mix of both..(thank you Iroel for the kind words about my art...qrter for the encouragement to venture..and wMw about the music..I ended up getting a straight compliment out of you....whooeee:) )

If you can't find the address to MAS (I couldn't) someone gave it to me by email so I have it somewhere, but I have to dig to find it. That's a pretty short little cd, might as well include a few more? If they choose to go to sleep after 3, they can. Or if they want to continue, they can. It wouldn't cost you anything extra. maybe ouchbot or that first track at loudboyscout.

... for 10 bucks you might double check that... I'm usually neurotic with stuff like that, I have to check like 8 times to make sure it's the correct one... and when I set my alarm clock I have to do it about 8 times too.

what'd be cool is to put really evil words and sentences but really small in the bottom right of the cute rabbit picture, so you get tricked when you look closer. They should really do something like that with kid shows like barney and bears big blue house too. it'd be sorta like that one flash animation of that moose or something someone posted where it appears like it's aimed at a target audience of children, then all the kids fly off the play toy in a bloody mess.

Flea, you know what I think about your music and these tracks only reinforce my opinion. As for contacting labels, i have no idea about who would be the best choice. If I made music like this, I'd just put it out myself and do a mailorder distribution and try to get it distributed by some distros... I wish you luck, mate.
