I liked Ed's appraisal of Soundcloud.

I'm finding SC an increasingly irratating banality platform.

Esp those comments you get like > "great work, be sure to get more reviews by clicking here - facebook", or those really thought through comments / messages such as "hey freind have you seen my new facebook n twitter"-- no I haven't fukface, I have a life and it's already full. In fact I don't follow anyone on Twitter, nothing in life is that urgent that I need up the second updates on whan someone took a .


10 million people all wanting fame and validation, all believing they are the next big thing. Not me though, of course, I'm above all that, ......cough

I dunno, I think Soundcloud is pretty nice. I just avoid those kind of relentless self-promoters as much as I can.

For real, mix in mono. Huh.

The one on clipping all the tracks, I've heard the opposite from mixing / mastering freaks on the web; never clip, not even one sample for "clean" sound. I'll try the clipping method though, it does sound good, with mastering too actually. Had a track or two, just master the track 5x times, you can make it sound really good ;)

Some of those tips, I haven't tried yet. Thanks a bunch for sharing ;)


And here you see an example of why this can be dangerous in the wrong hands.

39. Unless you're making dubstep, perfection is very important. But perfection doesn't just apply to the music you make. It applies to marketing gimmicks, album covers, random thoughts, family history, physical fitness, comedic premise, and most importantly - internet arguments. If someone is critical of you, an idea you have, a song you make, or pretty much anything else you happen to value, you need to react harshly and negatively.

If someone takes issue with anything that concerns you, the first thing to do is tell the person that they are negative and narrow-minded. Remind them that it's your/their opinion. If their observations are objective, tell them it's a subjectively related topic. If their observations are subjective, tell them they're not being objective enough. If they reply with an argument that further substantiates their thesis, try pitting other forum members against them by making passive-aggressive observations about their prominence. If that doesn't work, delete your thread (or everyone of your posts in someone else's thread). Nothing will make people want to have extended conversations with you like deleting their aggregate 2,000+ word-count.

Whatever you do, don't ever attempt to reach some middle ground or worse, agree that you see things their way. Concession to one or more points voids the whole point of having a perfectionistic approach to things. No matter how unhealthy it is, striving for perfection is more than skin deep. It is who you are and who you are is as special and unique as a snow-flake and snow-flakes are incredibly fragile. Don't take any criticism lightly.


40. Over-sensitivity is like armor. If you're at all worried that you're going to have some devastating emotional breakdown because you're emotionally labile, what you shouldn't do is take a break from public life on the internet and get your head together enough to come back on. Instead, wear your sensitivity on your sleeve. Keep your cauldron of instability close to the surface and be ready to drastically misinterpret the most innocuous remark as a scathing rebuke. People naturally don't want to hurt other people's feelings, and keeping yours so close to the surface warns people that you're on the edge and need to be handled with kid gloves. Playing on people's emotions to get them to react in a way which looks like respect or deference is one of many ways to avoid receiving anything close to an honest appraisal of your work.

Is that because all dubstep is already perfect?

Are you saying it's flawed rhetoric without a clear indication of whether or not it's perfect?
