Guest wake Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Some albums have songs on them that are atrocious, but I'm a perfectionist about my music library and so I just end up skipping songs all the time. I'm wondering if other people have the balls to just edit albums on their computers to their liking. Logically, it makes sense, but for some reason I just can't do it.

chassis Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Couldn't do it. I just listen to them anyway. Occasionally the tracks you hate at 1st turn out to be the best tracks on albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wake Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Good point, but I'm talking about albums you've been listening to for years and you know some of the tracks are just shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chassis Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Still wouldn't do it. Skip button is easier and allows me to be OCD about my music collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ruiagnelo Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 i get your point. i just can't do it. being it an album you have been listening for years or simply a record you got yesterday, that has a track you really love, i don't think it makes sense at all to just break the whole that is a record.

Guest Billov Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 If there was an album with one track i liked on it... I'd sooner delete the whole album than filter out the really shite tracks. I'm not a "one-track" lover. I listen to albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBLA Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 there are some albums that i hold dear and don't do this to. if i have a cd that i don't like half the tracks, i'll only upload the tracks i like. it's as simple as that... if i want the album experience, i'll listen to the cd.

Redruth Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 some trac's must be deleted. unfortunately it is the way with so many things in this imperfect world. most times it is not necessary because my favorite artists don't put shit trac's on their albums but occasionally there is the exception and action must then be taken. there are certain albums that have been whittled down to near nonexistence, it's always sad to think what would have been if most of the album had not turned out to be ear burning static.

Boxing Day Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I do this a lot Few examples: Analoggins from Analord 06 , Clayhill Dub from CW , that supernova song from The Orb's Adventures , Obsessed from Electro-soma , i deleted Numbers and Pocket calculator from Computer world and added The Telephone Call (because Electric cafe is awful and i can't have a one song album.) I have also deleted and merged a few of Early Squarepusher albums. Oh and this is how my Autechre looks like -- deleted and merged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o00o Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I thought about this yesterday like how would it be if I was able to delete tracks on my iPhone on the go. If I was only looking for one or two specific songs I do delete the rest. But in general I keep stuff as I don't listen to much music that is catchy on first listen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxing Day Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Because i payed real money for the fucking tracks and i can do whatever i want. The way he arranged SAW II was awful (probably wasn't him) , in some way I'm channeling Richard , and he tells me to arrange SAWII ^that way , so yeah , the way i have it is the right way.
