|
| sncky i'm trying to contact you! i love your reviews :)! your friend SNCKPCK
|
| jimthefish the Self Insert EP "philias" would probably interest you because its this weird computer fusion of experimental, pop, hip-hop and electronic. my fav off it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIlkN-iFb0
|
| Gnocchi That staff tag looks good on you
|
| Frippertronics this is also a reminder to bump that mf quarantine rating UP
|
| Winesburgohio no worries and thank you for being receptive! i'm a reasonably harsh editor but i only do it if i like the persons writing and want to make it better, great review as it turned out and it's ALL U BABEY
|
| Winesburgohio i think it's worth mentioning too that hindsight can be a revelatory thing, but we can also forget how much less latitude there was in the past. there's no denying Sophie was problematising gender on Product, but the, uhh, product as a whole has so much more
|
| Winesburgohio As is I stand unconvinced but i really admire the writing - there are just a few things to tidy up and please don't lose sight of the fact that Product was, among other things, a hell of a lot of fun. child-like wonder, reversion to basic human emotion; soaring emotional maturity and plain bangers. i hope i've been helpful!! do release it somehow because it deserves talking about it
|
| Winesburgohio right so i liked it on the whole but it feels disjointed: are you reviewing Product or Oil? critical positions are interjected a bit clumsily with description of the music, as is the case with many post-hoc analysis. To that end I think it would function better as a blog post. the writing is, of course, excellent, but there are some sweeping assertions in there that aren't rooted in fact but to bolster your argument
|
| Winesburgohio beautiful boy beautiful piece, even though (especially because?) i kinda disagree with the thesis statement; definitely one for the discussion Product merits. I'll make little comments here and there over my morning coffee tomorrow if you can wait that long xx
|
| Winesburgohio i'd love to help in any way i can!!! do you have a google doc?
|
| BlushfulHippocrene Left some comments. A lovely piece!!! Enjoyed it very much. Would recommend maybe seeing if Wines would be willing to give you any tips by way of analysis, too, if you haven't ask him. He's often hyper-critical (in a friendly, constructive way of course).
|
| BlushfulHippocrene Oops, think I might have written but not sent a response. Yes, would love to!
|
| verdant hey thanks so so much!! i have no plans but i'm sure i'll get back to it when i don't feel so uninspired
|
| Sowing nevermind I got it, was just buried in my inbox. thanks!
|
| Sowing I don't seem to have anything new from him.
|
| Aberf My dude, pls rec me some chill electronic albums/tracks/ep. Ty for listening.
|
| BlushfulHippocrene Thank you so much for reviewing that DJ Haram, I'm obsessed with Grace right now. Need as many Middle Eastern and South Asian artists as I can find.
|
| luci hey, have you heard barker's lp this year? think you'd like it since you 4'd lorenzo senni
|
| Sowing No need to rush your work I'm fine with waiting. If you see another one go up in the meantime it's temporary
|
| Sowing are you still planning on reviewing the new Ed Sheeran collabs album? just curious because if so I'll hold off on featuring a user review. no rush.
|
| Slex Thanks really appreciate that!
|
| FullOfSounds hi! i'm doing ok, how about you? miss seeing you on discord but it's good to hear from u
|
| Winesburgohio oh how lovely, that means so much! i hope you're feeling better in the light of day m8 but yeah This is Why I Do It!!! if you're looking for someone else who Gets It strongly recommend Mark Fisher if you haven't read him! Much love dude
|
| Frippertronics a wee bit bummed but nothing a full discog binge to bring things back down a little
|
| Pon Congrats on the contrib tag pootacoot
|
| Dewinged Always enjoyed your writing man, glad to see it got you the contrib tag!
|
| Gnocchi In the forums, look for the relevant thread titled soul sucking here
|
| Winesburgohio dude nice right back at you, really really stoked with your promotion and am excited for your concoctions
|
| clavier congrats on the promotion granite!
|
| xxm You're welcome.
|
| xxm Great review of caution.
|
| Brostep hey sorry for the late reply! I'm around occasionally but not a ton anymore. will try to get to your review at some point but no promises sorry :(
|
| Frippertronics imma need that discord info or something, cause we got an interview to do~ (tomorrow night preferably?)
|
| Sowing as a staff member yes, as a user or contributor it is still considered breaking the rules. unfortunately there is no way to distinguish between who has promos and who's merely saying they do, and sorting through forwarded emails isn't a venture jom and I want to get into any time soon
|
| Sowing ok, I'll let it slide this time (partially because it's out in ~1 day) but as you may or may not know, we don't allow reviews before their release date unless there is an official stream
|
| Sowing is that mgmt record streaming?
|
| Drummerboy123 Hey man thanks for the warm words, unfortunately no things have been on a decline. I've got a job I hate, have gone on countless dates to no avail, my friends have all left me and I hate talking about this stuff so I seal it up and keep on pushing through the days just feeling myself become more and more detached from the world.
|
| robin i care what people think about music and also my avatar is a bird because my name is robin x
|
| literallyzach Hey I just posted my review of the new Lorde album! Let me know what you think
|
| Sowing Unfortunately no. It's a server issue and mods don't have access to any of that. Things typically return to normal in a few days, but until a permanent fix is explored by the site's creator it will likely continue reoccurring.
|
| Sowing are you trying to submit an artist or an album? artist adds/edits are down right now due to server issues, so if it's the former then that's your problem right there. if not, link me to the page you're having album art issues for.

|
| BallsDeep Thanks for the kind words man, it wasnt exactly revolutionary advice - but it doesn't have to be because that's honestly what helped me and im sure alot of others through the tough times. Keep on keeping on
|
| SachikoM thanks! i'm a bit strapped for time with university and other things on my plate, but i'm still trying to pump them out when i can. it's something i do for enjoyment, so i won't ever drop it fully. it's just a matter of finding the time.
|
| Hyperion1001 Best way is probably chronologically but some of their old stuff can sound a bit dated. Tri Repetae is the universal Autechre entry album but any of their stuff before EP7 would probably be a good starting point.
|
| hogan900 Just read your post, thanks a bunch man! Really means a lot!
|
| SachikoM Nah, I was talking about the one i just reviewed: enough still not to know.
|
| MercuryToHell Yo, I know I already said it on the thread, but thankyou so much for the feedback on my music, it's helped me already more than you could possibly realise!
|
| VaxXi Oh, thanks for the recs! I'll see what I can do about tagging posts so it's easier to navigate the website.
|
| SalteyBacon Hey there! Thanks for commenting on my review for SebastiAn! I wanted to write about it, like you said it's a very underrated album. I'm trying to work on my writing skills (I'm 22 and yet I sound like a teenager online), they're not the best. If you could shoutbox me on how to navigate the forums that would be great. As a Graphic Designer, I need to write more creatively and while this is a brutal site, I still think music is a passion that I could write about a lot. Again, thanks!
