but i know "buh buh our opinions mattererzzz mostests, we are professional trolls, and our opinions are teh valluables." Nah. |
Awesome will do. I'm gonna go check out some of mfitters tracks too (not sure if they're even linked yet) but I just wanna see if theres any really noticeable differences. Not trying to bash anyones work here just wanna see.. |

Ok scrap that idea.
Beatport seems to be "down for maintenance" and it doesn't even look like mfitter has any tracks hes made linked. Just sets hes mixed.
mfitter where can I find your tracks?
I'll try beatport again in a bit I guess.. |

Mfitters music does not exist yet, he hasnt posted anything, just a buncha bull and delusions. You can check RichieV's, the music theorist/composer's music though, and I dont what your taste is like, but from what I heard, music theory knowledge is damn overrated for EDM. Best music i've heard has likely come from folks that dont know much about theory. |

I just heard Richie Vs "pressure" and the first one on the list (already forgot the name lol).
Very interesting to say the least. I like some of his ideas, but honestly speaking some of the levels in the mixing are just not "working" (for lack of a better word). Some parts sound wayyy too squeezed together, not only are the main leads thin (I did hear 1 synth pluck that sounded up to par in pressure) but they are choking themselves in the mix competing for space with the kick and bass. Which is like a cardinal sin in trance production imo because if the lead should be competing with any sounds its generally other higher synths, hats, or percussion, not the lower sounds.
I think a lot of what he says and knows is more then valuable to the forums, I also think hes entertaining and I get a kick reading his posts (as well as other people) just trackwise I'm not really hearing anything I can't do myself lol.
I understand this was years and years ago but if he technically stopped producing, hed technically pick back up with almost the same level of skills he had when he stopped years ago. |

Ok just heard Kismets stuff.
(I just typed an all out negative review and deleted it) All I can say is you reminded me why I don't like house, in fact, you reminded me of the fact that I actually hate house.
So it wouldn't be fair to even attempt a review. Even with styles outside my genre (trance) I can appreciate what energy or vibe an artist was sending out to the world, the only vibe I got from Deeply Rooted was confusion. But now this is turning into a review so I'll stop here.
In terms of making sounds sit right, I say good job.
Now if only mfitter could make some links available.. |

I had popcorn in hand that will go to waste lol. At least your honest, your not into house, so a review would not be remotely reasonable coming from you. Funny thing, most of the trolling of my music have been coming from folks that make trance or electro. The mix, i'd agree the mix everything sits well together. Even though mix is decent, to my own standards i'm only about 70% of where i'll be in a year or two mix wise, still have room for some improvement, just scratching the surface on my first EP. High ambitions for mixing as I acquire better equipment and develop more technique over time. |

Its good to hear some of Kismets stuff finally.
Let me see... I play deep house and tech house a lot more than trance these days, so I think I have some idea what I'm talking about, and I wouldnt play that stuff if you paid me. Its not even in tune dude. I think the sound design is the best part of it though, musically its terrible, but the sounds are good - not as good as motorcity soul's or someone really top notch like that, but on the way there I'd say. Everything sounds muddy on beatport though, so hard to say.
Cool that you got released on the same label as Ax:us and Pezzner though, I play their tunes a lot, suite dissapointment is a tune. |

Yeh I agree your mixing is great. And as stupid as it is I hate fvckn saxaphones, mainly cause I cant stand jazz and the stupid freestyling sax melodies they play.
If I can't say anything bad about it cause I don't like house, all I can objectively say is I don't feel any energy in it. It sounds very flowing and chill, not ambient just no real swings in energy, no anticipation or huge break downs, which I suppose has always been my favorite aspect of trance. To me house just has way too many squeaky noises that annoy the out of me. Like someone recorded a rubber ducky squeaking over a kick drum and tried to create a groove.(my bad I meant electro)
Some house I def do like, but its far and few between, electro too, I generally cant stand that either. |

thassss koo
but would you play your own music? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/def...m?bandID=423205
Does not sound like Deep House, or anything remotely close to it. I would not pay anyone to play my music, I already "pay" in the hard work I put into it. And talented DJs might be already playing my tracks ; ). So, thank you very much for the idea to pay to get you play my music though, but I think i'll be fine without you playing them.
To add Ax:us and Pezzner that you mentioned doing stuff for Rebirth, other artists that have done work for Rebirth are Deetron, Ripperton, Rocco, Faze Action, 2000 And One (forthcoming), Tapesh, James Teej, Pete Heller, Motorcitysoul, AFFKT & Fiddo, DOP and more have all had their hand in Rebirth releases just in 2009 alone. So you can imagine the joke that Jupiterone's tasteless and delusional trolling of Rebirth was.
Also, Rebirth supports new talents as well, so they're definately one of the most respectable labels and dont have a daft policy about only signing established producers, they give new and upcoming a chance to show their work, not many quality labels consistently do that. At first I did'nt think they'd sign my work, gave it a shot anyways, very happy they did.
But I agree, Axus - Suite Disappointment [Rebirth] is a tune. |

Yah, not everyone like Saxaphone, folks into Jazz music love it though, maybe why Joan Ribas, who does some jazzy stuff himself charted it #1. But for folks that might not, I remixed it in the 'Self Remix' and there is no sax in that Deeply Rooted vision. I actually crafted Deeply Rooted I think in March of this year the Sax craze was not that huge at that point, just a few tracks. Though, the Sax in Deeply Rooted, is there for nuance, not the main focus, it is really split up between the different elements.
I did'nt shop it till the end of May, and did'nt release till September. I don't mind though, i'm making music that in the years to come people will be able to look back in my catalogue and still enjoy the music i've made, not worried about trends, what was hot or not hot at the moment it comes out, more interested in the longterm.
Thanks for somewhat liking it :D
end of thread hopefully...but I have a feeling, mefferiter and richieV still need to itch and scratch. |

Shows how diverse your musical tastes are that you don't know most trance isn't even near 140 these days. Me personally most everything is 128-136. 140 BPM trance hasn't been a mainstay for YEARS.
Unlike you a lot of people in here listen to many different music genres; not just the ones they produce in. |

So basically...you...got...nothing to show? I dont see how its so hard to actually make something original and post it, i'll give you a whole week. And i'll give myself only 2 days. At least if I say something, I can back it up or the truth realises itself like it did with RichieV's music theory knowledge based music, you guys talk your , and then have a pile of bull to back it up with. Lame. |
Like I said you'll be able to listen to some of my work in a few days; I already told you lets get a remix comp going ; comparing original pieces is a waste of time as there is no aspects to control to compete through. I don't have abundant time like you at the moment (I dj, work and produce)
Lol man it's so funny to listen to you speak; especially when you're pissed about something you spell like and your insecurities really shine through. It shouldn't mean jack to you what others think of your music! It's like you're a little kid stuck in a sandbox LOL. |
