Hello everyone, I've been lurking for a bit so I figured it was time to interact, but not spam...

This increasingly lazy body has seen 40 summers and produced music for 23 of them. I live in Connecticut so I occasionally get down to NYC or up to Boston for a show, seeing any of the industrial bands I may have missed the first time around in my formative years.

Crippling self-doubt explained away as perfectionism means I have a hard drive full of music that I want to do more with, but have an impossible time saying it is ever finished or feeling it is worthy of clogging other people's ears. I am hoping to change that.

I started out doing industrial/90's goth club stuff back in the day. Now I enjoy making ambient and techno in a small room in the upstairs at my house, or on my lunch break at work. The 80's EBM and industrial influence in acts such as Phase Fatale and Blush Response pulled me back into regularly producing, it had been on and off for a few years. I'm mostly ITB.

There is a wealth of talent and information in this forum, I'm really happy to have found it.

don't be shy to share some of your music.
perfectionism sounds VERY familiar.
Self doubt is I think a necessary evil.

Hello everyone.. I'm going to start being a little more active on the forum, so this seems the perfect place to start!

I've only been into techno (broadly speaking) for the past 3 years, and so my tastes are still changing and expanding frequently the more I hear. What I look for in techno currently is anything with a bit of melody and emotion or that incorporate vocals in a unique way (@Lost to the Void's track is bang on with what I mean about melody and emotion... and Nocow - Forgiven is an example of a track which incorporates vocals in a really unique way).

I'm currently just a bedroom DJ and producer; my musical style and mixing/mastering abilities are still developing and so I hope to post some of my tracks on here in the near future!

[Críoch]

Welcome man! Glad you found us.

Welcome! I'm about at the same spot as you level wise. Don't be hesitant to share some projects, the one thing about subsekt I can guarantee 100% is that you will get nothing but constructive feedback. Even the folks which aren't into your type of music will probably mention it, but still try to help you out. Just give some of your own, no matter how noob or not you are. Which Void's track do you mean? Check this out for some crazy! youtu.be/JsMnfE9il0s

Get to know that crew. They are great people and they have supported techno since the late 90s.

Hey guys!

I have been lurking for a long time now and I think its time to say hello. I am Gasper (24) from Slovenia. I have learnt tons from this forum (its def my favorite place on the net), but you know how the learning process is... Every time I take a step towards better sound a giant sledgehammer hits my face and I think that my skills are not ready yet. I really enjoy Huren, Kareem, Mslwte, Sagae, Tolkachev, JK Flesh, Ontal. I like labels like pi electronics, Ad noiseam, instruments of discipline, Jezgro. I also enjoy noise (proper noise show can make you feel heaven), metal and bands that do weird shit (W.A.S.T.E.). I remember hearing sounds of Schranz from my neighbors window as a child, I was scared of it shitless. I still like music that induces fear, it makes me feel alive.

I have made a lot of tracks - they suck on some level. But my sound has definitely improved thanks to your no bullshit advice on EQ and compression, those are my favorite topics.

I plan to contribute more to this community, as I try to make some nasty pointless art.

excellent, the world needs more nasty pointless art, especially if it's free from ego.

I would say welcome, but you've been here for 4 years already.

I definitely will share some as soon as I can, not too shy about it, just dont have enough activity on the forum yet to do it. I was talking about the one he has showing up under his posts here with the intriguing title. Yeah man I dig that track also, thanks for sharing!

Hi everybody. Not very good with words nor at talking about myself but I'll try.

I'm originally from Brazil but emigrated to Canada 6 years ago.

I've been into electronic music since 2000. I was more of a punk rock guy at the time but I had this friend that was really into e-music and I couldn't understand why. She insisted on giving me this K7 with some of her favorite tracks, which I reluctantly accepted. One day I was alone at home, there's was nothing to do, and I decided to give it a try.

The very first song was this:

youtu.be/mevYbz4rW7g

I loved it the first time I heard it. It sounded amazing.

I wanted more, and started looking for similar things (I still love and hear Christian Morgenstern to this day, definitely one of my favorite artists).

I don't know if any of you ever watched it, but MTV used to air this show called AMP every Friday around 1 am back in the day (in Brazil at least). It was dedicated to electronic music, all genres.

That, my friend and the Internet were my main sources of "finding" new stuff at the beginning. I think I watched every AMP show their aired that year . There was no bandcamp or soundcloud back then and I obsessively listened to anything electronic music related that I had the chance to hear. Of course, after a while I started going to parties and all of that.

Techno is my first love and the music I listen more. Besides that I really, really like electro and am always looking for interesting tracks old or new.

I've been playing with Ableton for about a month now to put some musical ideas in practice. I was looking for sites where I could learn from people who were going or went through the same things that I'm going through right now and that's how I found this site.

This is the very first thing that I've "finished" and liked the way it sounds:



I customized every sound on that track to fit my vision and of course, it's far from ready, there's still a ton of things to do to improve it.

When I look at the amount of things that I have to learn and master to make that sound better, it's bit scary tbqh.

I'm reading and practicing as much as I can but will probably be posting some stupid questions here every now and then.

cheers!

you did quite ok looking at your post.

Where are you located in Canada (and why did you move, if I may ask ?)

It takes balls to post a track on your 1st post and after such a short time into production.
There's a dedicated part of the forum to ask for feedback on tracks you're working on btw.
Personally, I would not use the ping pong panning on your kick. It just has a sort of dizzying effect in the end.
You're better off doing that to the percussion parts.

that's what keeps it interesting.

welcome to subsekt, and try to be creative with the swearing !

Namastey Guys !!

I am Abhineet from India. I have been following this community for quite some time.

I love all sorts of techno especially the festivals stuff like Enrico Sangiuliano's work. I started producing techno six months back. I love psychedelic trance too so sometimes find myself hanging in the between the two genres

Its feels great to see fellow dreamers around.

[Críoch]

India!! Excellent

Welcome man
