  1. im a big fan of the Daughter Produkt experimental ambient electro serie collabs which features Heinrich Mueller (and many others) This one track especially https://daughterprodukt.bandcamp.com/track/holomorphic-functions
  2. Japan has some nice underground breakcore people love this 26 min flashcore experiment https://extremeobsn.bandcamp.com/track/20200620 Xanopticon is obviously a breakcore God Atomhead is a boss too
  3. On the whole i think Monologue is even more beastly in its pure sound. Monologue filter has definitively more bite and character imo.Its supremely juicy.When you go portemento you those fkin sweet pitch slide that reminds me of Drexciya. Also motion sequencing per step which minilogue cant do.(I think? if im right)
  4. Monologue or Bass Station 2. I have the Monologue. It's flexible, powerful, juicy, intuitive.Future classic. AFX mode on BS2 looks absolute bonkers and fun.
  5. this all of it (except the lifting weight part)
  6. one of the sexiest track thx for tunes you Daft Punks!!!
  7. Tasty IDMesque flavoured electro. My fav is Toxskut with the delayed laser flashes percs and rolling plucks, playful and lush.
  8. well they're in charge haha i know from good sources that they do not take it lightly to be robbed out of their money and can be quite ruthless if you scam them a decent amount of money like they will send merciless lawyers after you until you beg
  9. Yeah once people get so much music for free or very little its hard to get them to pay 20 bucks an album. I often say buying music in this day an age is a choice basically. It's a choice you make to support the artist and ecosystem. But we all know that if you offer people to choose between paying for something or having it for free or very little the vast majority will choose the easy way.Cause free stuff.
  10. I've done all thoses things and it's a rich journey of amazing musical experience, amazing human experience and growth. You do beautiful gigs, meet amazing people, feel the passion. But there is no money in it. Maybe i'm not good enough.I'm not Beethoven.I just make tracks. But i know the whole game is rigged too. I personally dont have any illusions of it.I don't think i'll ever make a living off music but that's ok.I don't really care that much. I do my thing.I love music. That's enough for me.
  11. Bottom line is that we live in an age dominated by greed as the dominant value. Greed motivated individuals and societies doesnt care about having a healthy cultural landscape and ecosystem very much. Money is god. I'm grateful there is still things like cultural institution and donators amongst all of this because if not for it things like orchestras and museums would disappear pretty fast.
  12. Once upon a time a musician had the other musicians in the city/village he lived as competition. Lets say you play violin/guitar, there is a few other people playing in your town, youre known as the town violinist/guitarist. You live in a hunter gatherer village there is maybe one or two other musicians.Maybe a few more but not thousands.You're respected as such.You're the music guy in the place. There is maybe 5-10-20 competitors in a bigger town.You have decent chance making a living. Then cities.Maybe the ones in near-by regions come around sometimes.A few more competitors. Then the world changed and you were in competition with people in other countries that are traveling.The pool gets bigger. But now with the internet and total globalization you're in competition with the whole world directly.The pool is HUGE. No matter what your talent is you're in the race with the talents of ALL the countries in the world AND on top of that you have the whole ecosystem going against you, marketing, big labels, streaming services. It's like there is 10 millions people going to the same job interview as you, some may have massive contact to get in and the job wont pay and rip you off hahaha The game is rigged from the beginning against musicians to make a living off it in the modern context. If bread could be downloaded-streamed, and be in competition with the bread from every bread maker in the world, the local baker wouldnt make a living either. You gotta do it for the love of it. Maybe you'll be lucky and make a living but probably not. Support music all you can and still make the music you love, but it's a crazy new big scale, big profit, globalized-and-not-so-much-at-human-scale world we live in, and things like artists are not the priority. But eh loads of good music tho. It's kind of a golden age in a way as well. LOTS of good music from all over the world. Double edge sword of modern life and modern technologies. What is better before? or is it better now? In some ways yes it's better now but in some other way definitively not.These are the cards we are dealt with.
  13. Lush one by Neo-Classical Phase Stravinsky
  14. Let's have some Papa Haydn
  15. yeah seems to me big part of why it's not under control its because everything was so half assed in quebec like do it once but do it for real else it will just drag and drag and drag New Zealand : Go Hard go Early. seems the only way im no expert tho
