G. I. Raffe Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I think this would be really helpfull there's great music posted here, but I think in general people are too polite. I think constructive musical criticism wouldn't go a miss. No ass-kissing ok shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People do get offended by this kind of thing, even when they say they don't. It's really not worth falling out with people over this kind of thing. Well, good luck with your thread.

b born droid Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I don't listen to enough EKT stuff to comment and i really should do considering i put stuff up there ocassionally. I don't need constructiuve criticism because i know what is wrong with everything i do, it sounds like it's ripped off from somewhere, and lacks any real originality and my influences are usually quite recognisable. Fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nimmm Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 [shouldn't this be in the ekt forum? Most of the better threads are usually banished to other sub forums so people like you can sprout ever more non ending shit about what breakfast cereal you've eaten today blah blah blah I'll think about this one then get back to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nimmm Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I think it best to avoid specific targetting of peoples flaws but I do feel somewhat let down by alot of the placid, clean , digital preset driven shit that comes out of EKT. I've become fairly adept at second guessing what I'm going to hear from alot of people, which in and of itself is a little dissapointing. It's amazing the amount of people who get hard listing all their gear in hardware threads, then you listen to their tracks and you think to yourself "well where is it then? give it to me I'll tear it inside out" you just think they dont deserve all that gear because from what they sound like to my ears they arent pushing their sound I dont hear much passion, alot of it sounds lazy , far too many wannabe BOC fanboys, I realise its a mean feat these days to be truly one's own sound, but atleast make some effort or an interesting variant. Also , some people are particularly crap at trying different styles, some people have one trick ponies, one sound, a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nimmm Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 That was one track of yours, you see, your a good example, i like alot of your work but your really bad at taking any sort of criticism. I've noticed this, no offense. I wasn't accusing you either, I was telling you it sounded generative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest grasshoppa Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 cool and im just telling you its not, chill. there is a difference between answering a silly comment like that and actual constructive crit. I know that every every day is a learning exeriance and have taken alot of crit and used that to get the tunes where they are today. I appolgise wholefully if I am being a bad crit taker for being insulted when the stuff I've worked on is said to be randomly generated, wtf? sorry for sticking up for what I love, stupid non crit taking me, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not worth falling out with people over this kind of thing. Well, good luck with your thread. it's a swap.. give crit to people that ask for it.. for eg: me I don't know how to tell people their music is boring without sounding like an asshole. That wouldn't make you sound like an asshole imo. Unless you tell someone who hasn't asked you for your onest opinion come on people, there's not enough honest criticism here.

G. I. Raffe Posted April 4, 2006 Author Share Posted April 4, 2006 I'll take some constructive criticism, if anyone has any.Your tracks are very well produced, but sometimes I find them not 'raw' enough if you get what I mean. It's hard for me to comment more cos I haven't heard that much of your stuff.. but maybe they're too highly polished? dunno Me: New City 16 Shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
