where's the goddamn tunes man???????

If you are gonna make music and put it out PUT IT OUT, don;t worry bout what reactions you get.

let's hear this thang!

chicka 12.15.2009 10:15 AM

thanks for the laughs

auto-aim 12.15.2009 11:33 AM

ah haha - but it is invite only! A special club. But really, it's just because they're work in progress and I don't want to whip it out, so to speak, onto nowhere for everyone to shit on or ignore. I don't care if I don't like what people think, but I don't expect much response so thought it would be better PM'ing one or two people the link who might actually be interested. Speaking of which - if you've expressed any interest I'll send a link your way now.

auto-aim 12.15.2009 11:46 AM

oh, also Glice - It was recorded live and that bit is improvised (if it can be called that). I forgot to mention that in my message.

wellcharge 12.16.2009 11:59 PM

these recordings are cool so i would recommend asking him for the link!

Inhuman 12.17.2009 12:15 AM

I'd be down for sampling it and give you some feedback, feel free to PM me the link

terminal pharmacy 12.17.2009 01:57 AM

what? what's the problem with glice saying he only trust the opinion of a few people on here and stating that as something for music he made and recommending that someone else seeks the opinion of said people.

i think you may have just misread some things in glice's original post wellcharge.

Inhuman 12.17.2009 03:43 PM

This stuff is balling auto-aim! Just listened to Drone is None. After listening to some Blind Idiot God this works perfectly after it. Right before the really harsher parts it would be cool to hear a calamity in the instrumentation or a buildup. In two cats having a fight maybe try a little bit higher levels on the vocals. But really, this is jammin'

auto-aim 12.17.2009 07:58 PM

thanks hypertonic and inhuman! Personally, yeah, I want to head back (probably not til the new year) and re-do/consider the vocals and also just mess around some more with the mixes on all but about two of the songs. The vocals were the last thing done and a bit rushed at the end of the session, so all like first takes. A couple were semi-improvised and you know that kind of thing... Maybe go back and record a couple more songs with it too.

I'd like to be able to release it in some capacity - and certainly if theres some interest and if this is some kind of litmus test I might feel more er - i dunno - motivated. that's not to say i don't expect it to do anything other than just be. Or those are the right reasons for doing something. The band unit is a little dilapidated at the current time also - so i'm not sure whats going to happen - in terms of members, maybe renaming, re-jigging. I've got a couple of ideas - one would be to release it as a film with a physical copy as well. I know there's a couple people even here who are into filmic stuff like atsonicpark and it might be cool to get other people involved if they were interested.

So yeah, I'm just a bit insecure at the moment. I know what I'm doing, i think, but also having some other perspectives on it is important to me. And again, for that, thanks!

infinitemusic 12.18.2009 01:43 PM

improvisation is always work in progress so don't be afraid to show to the world your way of expression...just PUT IT OUT! fuck elitism !

Glice 12.21.2009 09:57 AM

Improvisation is a broad church. I'm of the opinion that that church is at its weakest when it's treated as 'work in progress'. Which isn't a sleight on Herr Aim's work, just a comment on the nature of improvisation. In the case of this work, I think it's good, but if Herr Aim isn't happy, it's probably worth waiting until he is happy.

chrome noise tape 12.21.2009 10:56 AM

in my opinion i don't think "work in progress" for improvisation it's a weakest point, if your way of music is improvisation, it's hard to know even for the musician when he is happy with his work that depends of many things (even the mood of the player can have a huge influence on the music he's playing )

well you always can say if he plays the same music in another way, the theme it's not same, so will be another thing, in that way he's really improvised. ( i understand your point of view but my english it's not good enough to explain exactly my point )

Glice 12.21.2009 06:02 PM

That's cool. I get a bit defensive on this point just because I'm mainly an improviser. I play improv in a few ways, but the stuff that's most gratifying is the stuff that's good (to my ears) without needing anything added or taken away, that couldn't be repeated. Which is very difficult, but amazing when it happens. However, there are as many ways of improvising as there are people - I'm kind of fascinated with how classical players 'improvise' to written solo material, but that's a very different thing.
