feels like

you have the rawness of soulwax, I like!

only I need an ever raw-er climax... let it pump and tear even harder!

Auecs responds:

Thanks for the review! This song i guess was just never meant to be. It was about half finished when I uploaded it and shortly after, my computer died. Lost fucking everything including this song. This is one I always wished I could add to my collection of completed work...

Hi a-rest,

First of all, since you seem to dominate the pop-genre on this website, I decided to check all your tracks! Your songs definately have 'something', they feel like the records I grew up with, such as simon and garfunkel, jethro tull, etc etc. In short, they take me back. However, I have two major arguments for awarding you this relatively low score:

1. I feel like, the pop genre should be for modern music. There probably is no indie rock genre, but maybe one should be created. This really isn't pop music and to be honest, I don't understand why no-one else seems to have a problem with that...

2. The quality of your recordings is pretty bad in most of your songs. I mean, the instruments sound good, warm and intimate, but there is a huge amount of hiss and crackle in them. Have you considered building a studio of some sort to get better sound quality?

Lastly, I don't know how you get so many votes? Do you have any suggestions? Everytime I upload a track I get like 20 votes if I'm lucky...

Addendum:
You didn't respond to my review, but my track got downvoted (with exactly one vote) from 4.2 to 3.6 or something. Must have been someone with a voting power of around, oh I don't know, SEVEN!? Voting a ZERO! Im sorry, but I don't think my track was THAT bad. Feels more like you are systematically blocking other artists from getting in the top 10.

Don't you know that when you do that, your top10 position doesn't mean anything anymore? Don't you realize that you are basically admitting that your songs are crap? (actually I don't think they're crap, but they're certainly not top10 pop material)

a-rest responds:

as i have told you in private, you blame the wrong people.
you wish a positive reaction?
here´s one for you:

what can i say

this is one bangin track my friend, I especially like that I can turn up the volume without sounds rippingg my eardrums, but if I play the song a low volume it still has enough punch to keep everything interesting. That, in my eyes, is a major accomplishment.

I would like to hear some kind of edit with a vocal line in it... but perhaps that's a little too commercially viable for your taste?

Mans0n responds:

not at all! if i can find some good vocals that go with the song i will gladly do it!
and thanks for the awesome review!

[wrench (in the void mix)]

base

Why is there no base in the percussion?

oddfellowfloyd responds:

do you DJ...at all?

...there is a bassdrum in those breaks... it's just not making your speakers pop... try adjusting your subwoofer...? but it's plenty clear in my Sony MDR-V700's and with my sub turned halfway up, so...

and also... as i said... the bassline sound didn't come out quite as throbby as i would have liked--this being a "work-in-progress"-- i suppose... i'm sure if i was spinning this through larger speakers, you'd hear that bass :P there's also no bassdrum in the 32-measures mix-in/mix-out sections, on purpose...
