he guys and gals, to reborn this thread a lil bit I post a link to a project I did with my girlfriend for a german online music channel. I think they came out pretty raw, and I really love the outcome (and it was great to shoot and especially to make the lil soundtracks for em) every feedback is highly appreciated, hope you enjoy:

Ok, so, 100% honest mode ON:

1st one: love it
2nd one: hmmmm, 50%-50%, I don't like when there are the bubbles and the creased tissue (or wathever that is), also the changes in proportions given by the camera distance are a bit overdone imo.
3rd one: me like it, I'd make it one-speed-only
4th: too much "The Ring"-like (both audio and vid)
5th: nice, not too original but well edited (that "plin plin" effect is a bit too much bbc-like )
6th: cool, love the light on this.

overall: really nice effort, DUDE, I hope I didn't sound too rude, i like even the ones I criticized for something, they sure are better than most of the stuff you get to see usually.
well done.
who's the girl?

[shabbray2.0]

thats my gf, hahaha
didnt I mentioned her? if not, I will edit that as soon as I can!
thanks for your honesty, and I think I agree on all with you.
my favourites are the last two, even if the ink thingy isnt the most original I like how it came out (the bbc comparison is great ) the fire one was a bitch to choose, cause onlly one shot was possible.

btw equipment used:
2 ixus 100
1 macbook (garageband)
1 macbook pro (after effects / final cut)

thats it. equipment wise a punkish project hahaha, everything was done in a kitchen and a bathroom. for the sounds I used kind of trash recordings I did recently and/or a long time ago. after effects for the contrasts and final cut, um yes, what it does: cutting / speeding up / down

I'm seeing Autechre tonight!!!!!!! I'm so fucking excited!!!

[nicfit]

Is she your girlfriend?

[SYRFox]

just checked your works shabbray; I'm not too savvy on design but I liked the first three ones, really enjoyed the 4th one and liked the two last a bit less. But good stuff overall indeed

That's gay when you consider that Autechre = two men.

Is it a case of all the gear, no idea?

[_slavo_]

shut the fuck up

[SYRFox]

autechre was so fucking awesome. i still can't believe it
rob hall began the night with 2 hours of techno dj set, he was really good and rocking. People were enjoying themselves. When he played Freak by LFO it was like yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
then he stopped at 1am, and without a break the lights were turned off and BOOM CLAP BOOM CLAP BOOM CLAP BOOM CLAP autechre went on with a straight rhythm. And then it was pure madness, insane rhythms everywhere, evolving, sounds coming in from the chaos. People were really into it. The venue was completely full, it was unbelievably hot in there. They were really MINDBLOWING. I think they may have really enjoyed the gig too, since the first bootlegs from the tour were 60/65 minutes long, and they were supposed to play 60 minutes on the schedule , yet they played 75 mins... Yeah, fantastic. One of the best gigs I've been to in my life

Then Didjit played a DJ set based on dancehall and old school hip hop, it was mostly fun
And then Russell Haswell was disappointing, I was expecting a blasting wall of sound set, and while the beginning was overawesome, for some reason after that he played some vaguely glitchy 90s hardcore techno and it was not really interesting...
But overall it was a fantastic night. Damn.

[SYRFox]

man, this is autechre week. i bought oversteps, am listening to it for the first time right now and enjoying it SO much. great great great so far

[shabbray2.0]

what are these "oversteps"?
album?

[SYRFox]

yes, it's their new album. it was released this week. it's more ambient than their last albums... really interesting. It reminds me of Confield as well so far, which is a good thing since Confield is my favorite Autechre album.

[shabbray2.0]

yes. good news, wasnt at the warp page for a while. totally not up to date. but that are good news, would like to have another AE fix at the moment

[SYRFox]

they are going to play berlin soon, will you go ? They were really mindblowing last week. Going to see them again in April in Brussels with my buddy TheFoxBen, I can't wait (especially since King Midas Sound will be playing the same night as well)

[_slavo_]

i don't get all the fuss about King Midas Sound

[SYRFox]

hmm i don't know, i really like them for some reason. i can't really say why i find them so awesome, but yeah. they're so chill, and that's like the only thing i could think of after listening to "waiting for you". the album's got no track as stunning as poison dart on the bug's london zoo, but overall i think it's a much much better album.

[_slavo_]

Lately, I've found 99% of electronic music with beats incredibly schematic and boring. Beatless music is a different cup of tea though.

[SYRFox]

hmm weird; i guess that would explain why you don't get king midas sound though. on the other hand i'm really into wonky (whatever that means) and dubstep lately so that might be why i like them... eh.
