Re: Your favourite techno labels

I know there is that whole shitstorm with Beddewela and his Golden Rule EP but other than that I quite like the label selection and aesthetics. Shlømo, Tim Tama, Yan Cook, Introversion, Cleric all had releases that I very much enjoyed through ARTS. Is there any other particular reason why you do no...

Re: Why bother releasing tracks?

Short answer: They're not gonna book you unless you have releases (preferably on reputable labels). Or at least it's much MUCH harder to get booked without them. Yes, that seems like a valid reason. Is that also the case even if you had good demo mixes of your music you could show or videos of othe...

Re: dubdub - untitled [876]

Stulistically not my cup of tea but sounds good production-wise. Good stereo placing and well balanced mix of the pads. The arrangement seems very well executed although personally I’m not a big fan of those slowly progressing and never resolving tracks.

Re: Mslwte - Feudal Systems (album demo)

I tried to listen to it in a car from a mobile but somehow it won’t go past the 5th track. From what I’ve listened to already I love the percussive parts. Great grooves and sound design. I’m not a big fan of the melodic parts though. Too dramatic for me but this is purely personal. That being said t...

Re: Bas Mooy picks his favourite 10 tracks on Mord

Mixton is my least favourite track of UVB. Ravage is great though. Big inspiration for me. Also great to see Lag’s track on the list.

Re: sorglos - bombing ignorance

I like the elements you have. The interplay between the crunchy drums and the dreamy synths work well. A small suggestion: Try to make the arpeggio that starts in the first break more complex. It's possibly linked to my listening environment (at the moment it's purely headphones), but it seems to m...

Re: sorglos - bombing ignorance

I love the drums and distortion on this. I’m not sure about the arrangement. Some parts are rushed and others go for a bit too long. But based on the ending I guess you’re still about to work on that.fair enough then.

Re: Where is hades?

Yeah, I don’t get the whole hollywood horror films aesthetics that comes with a lot of techno. Like some of the mord releases. I like the music but totally not digging the vibe of the artworks.

If I were an established producer and had enough balls then definetely. But don’t mind me. When you made up that example with a metal band guitarist I thought I’d definetely like to see such a video.

Re: Studying Music Production in the EU

Yeah, but not all the courses are designed to get you employed after graduation. Some you go to just for the sake of studying it. Obviously paying tens of thousands for a music production course is hardly an investment but if you can afford it (and a lot of people can) and that's what you want to do...

Re: Umfang - Against the Clock

I guess the problem is both the program peeps not really communicating well with the artist, but also the artist agreeing to do it and basically trying to blag it, rather than turn it down and lose the promotion opportunity. I`m pretty sure if we said "Subsekt challenge, make a video of you working...

Re: Studying Music Production in the EU

I have no experience with such courses myself but I was reading an interview with dax j where he talks about it briefly. „If I was to do it all again or advise anyone, I would do a private course like SAE. Its a lot more focused specific to DJ’s and Music production and you can do the full degree qu...

Re: Umfang - Against the Clock

I saw her lecture at red bull academy on yt some time ago and apparently this is the way she makes music. As far as I remember she was quite open about not being so hard on the technical side of production. For me it was quite interesting to see that you can approach making music like that. I’m not ...

I watched couple of interviews with him and I wouldn’t expect anything else. He comes across as a massive egomaniac. But that’s not my point. I just find it funny when people coming from a punk background turn out to be so conservative when it comes to electronic music. The same goes for poeple list...
