| SomeCallMeTim techno and electronic music are synonymous, what say you
|
| Numali Deviant! I am unable to upload an avatar to my user profile. I don't know who else or where to reach out to! Could you possibly look into it? Thank you so much in advance!
|
| AntalWS Hi there! I'm trying to report an issue with an album title, but the link to the forum thread (https://www.sputnikmusic.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=95) isn't working. I tried different browsers and made sure to tell Ghostery to trust the site, but to no avail. How can I report issues? Thanks!
|
| MiloRuggles deviant! are you alive? i simply must know your opinion on the band The Beths, we're all counting on you. dw, we're on the search for succinct and pithy, you can return to hibernation real quick
|
| twlight What do you think of owsey?
|
| rellik009 and this album: https://bedlamtapes.bandcamp.com/album/celebrating-digital-artifacts
|
| rellik009 Deviant., I got two recs for you. Just check 'em out if you want. There's this album: https://haircutsformen.bandcamp.com/album/ep-tape-edition

|
| parksungjoon hey daddy i knw you dont know me but youve been a big inspiration for me. in 2016 i made a list that also contains a whole bunch of electronic s*** (among many other genres), mind giving it a peep and a bump maybe?
|
| Tyler. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1LZaEUf55Zl4wYbBxyaJpc?si=wCdFsk_6RIei6PClwN9bMA
|
| Tyler. im making an electronic playlist of dancey stuff. it can be whatever really as long as its dancey. if u had any good ideas that would be sick. thanks
|
| Lord(e)Po)))ts Yeah I knew that, just was pulling straight off my own 2019 list and didnt think about it. Thanks for the heads up
|
| Tyler. Is it worth hiring 24 fourth graders to color the siding of your house with crayon if you want hot rod flames?
|
| Sinternet come on dev you gotta realise how fun it is to s***post at these morons
|
| Sinternet glad to see the neutering of the site to mediocre no fun allowed posting is going well
|
| Intothepit Oh come on, Dev. Just once for old time's sake.
|
| granitenotebook i would love to hear what electronic music you have enjoyed lately, if you have any. been a while since your last list haha
|
| Tyler. thoughts on the song "american boy" by estelle ?
|
| Sowing Still on for beers this weekend right
|
| DerKunst you seem like a righteous cünt, im sure you and sowing get along.
|
| Frippertronics Perhaps she gauges what would work based on what label she's working with. The Hyperdub/Hippos in Tanks releases tend to be the ones that lean more towards pop and/or jazz, whereas the stuff on Honest Jon's is her more abstract, out-there works. Or more easily put, she simply does as she pleases, but I did notice the type of music she does does seem to correlate with the label the record is on.
|
| Inveigh no s***, it's wild man. marriage, adulthood, still the occasional sput sesh.
|
| zakalwe Good to see ya. What on Earth brought you back into the fold?
|
| Frippertronics I think a great deal of that impenetrable quality is because of Halo's own refusal to make compromises, from the way I look at it. She'll put out this wild pop-like record out one day, then go full electroacoustic drone the next. You never know what she's going to do, and that unpredictability is what I love so much about her.
|
| Inveigh life is good my dude, got a couple of kids now. hbu?
|
| Frippertronics If we're talking about artists carefully curating themselves, Laurel Halo is another one whose been getting more recognition for what she's been doing. It really kinda seems people just caught onto her in the past year or so, although it's been a long time coming, say since 'Dust' but 'Quarantine' has been *the* album for a lot of people, from my experience.
|
| Frippertronics It took me quite a bit to really come around to The Altar, although I do think there's some, um, questionable decisions regarding the songwriting on that. III kinda felt like her trying to reach for some semblance of widespread appeal while not compromising her own ambitions - but I think that falls apart as soon as Gimme is done. Talk about one hell of a red herring, eh?
|
| Frippertronics you've been keeping up with banks in the past five years? i'd imagine you're quite tickled that she's garnered a relatively solid following since goddess came out
|
| Pikazilla That's fair enough. I've just been starting to get into electronic so I'm pretty excited you are back on sput : )
|
| Pikazilla Any chance you are going to resume doing reviews? That would be awesome.
|
| buffserker1919 Hey Deviant! I have really been enjoying your reviews. Especially "Diamond Eyes" by Deftones! I think I have an album which may scratch that itch if you feel like hearing something similar. Would you mind listening to "Passageways: Haan" by Nick Bufalino? It just came out and I think you'd be great to review it. Thanks!
|
| bloc The important thing is that you tried I guess
|
| Gyromania Welcome back, Deviant. Hope you're doing well
|
| Winsomniac Thanks for the feedback on my sleep-deprived musings. Hope you're doin' alright!
|
| bloc Niiiiiiice, congrats to you too brother. My invitation must have gotten lost in the mail. You know how it is with this overseas mail you know
|
| Gnocchi Just popping in to say welcome back Dev. Things haven't been the same without you.
|
| bloc Ah glad to hear you're ok. If it's personal matters then I hope it's all sorted out now. Site's been the usual revolving door of users but the ones who stick around are all good kids. Got married a few months ago and she showed up on the date so that was a relief. As for the futurepop, I can't say I keep up with it as much as I did 7 or so years ago but I see that memory of yours is still sharp as ever lol
|
| bloc Really good to see you man, hope all is well
|
| kris. so you back for good or just visiting? site could sure use your presence in these trying times
|
| skeletorissatan Dev, just seen you're back! I'm really sorry about all the s*** years ago man, I wasnt well at the time. Hope you're well
|
| Pon Never been a praying man but
|
| kris. good to know you're still kickin dude
|
| Maco097 Hey I don't know if you can help, can you please all my ratings?
|
| Orb wish you were here
|
| JustJoe. Still missing you. Hope life's treating you right.
|
| luci miss you, hope all is well

| Stereochrome1 Hey Deviant, I'm having some issues with uploading album art for this record. Any Tips?http://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=254890
|
| RLWFormula cum back u beauitful creature #tightbrosloosebuttholes
|
| SmileNerd hey bud idk where you went off to but your taste and reviews are ace come back
|
| SadAndHolyGlow Hey, Dev. I have manuallyd all the ratings on my account but it still says that there are 19 ratings and 25 sound-offs remaining though I can't find them. I would be cool with keeping my account but I would like all of thosed if possible, please. THANKS!
|
| Orb Hey Deviant big ups for your musical sensibilities. I'm on a mission to add a bunch of underground bass artists on here and I'm oft seeing your ratings and that gooy good no one else knows about. Big tings big tings just had to shout-out at ya for being dope.
|
| StrikeOfTheBeast You know that user named Futures? He's being very provocative towards several users including myself. I've been hostile backout out of defense. If you could do something about that, that would be great. Thanks.
|
| bloc Randomly visited the Push the Button thread to comment about Galvanize and it reminded me of you
|
| bloc Dude are you still around?
|
| ftinside I'm sorry Dev. Just wanted to say that to you before s*** n stuff but yeah I'll never forget what this site meant for me. Thanks for everything man and letting me get away with WAYYYYYY too much at times. I'll never forget how you and bloc laughed at me recing linkin park for drum n bass recs or ****ing future pop
|
| spookynewghostfriend Hey hello, I don't wanna bother you but you have Austrian Death Machine's triple brutal at 1.5 and I wondered why. Obviously the joke has worn off but the tracks are enjoyable and fun in themselves I find. I think "Prepare to be conquered" is quite good, or "you lack discipline."
|
| KevinKC Hey hello, I don't wanna bother you but you have Austrian Death Machine's triple brutal at 1.5 and I wondered why. Obviously the joke has worn off but the tracks are enjoyable and fun in themselves I find. I think "Prepare to be conquered" is quite good, or "you lack discipline."
|
| Lavair Noisia just announced a new album. I thought of you when I realized "Deviant would be the first to add that to the Sput database"
|
| CaptainDooRight Hello. I just released an electronic LP. Just wanted to let you know in case you're interested. I'm not sure if it's your style but each track has its own feel. Contains some dance and what not too. https://trvth.bandcamp.com/album/fossil
|
| FLCL If I'm going to write a review for dmz, do I want to talk about the history of dubstep or just go straight to talking about the album. I want to give it some context but I'm not sure how
|
| FourthDyke Hey man miss ur presence around here i had to retire because your replacements are so incompetent. Doubt youll ever see this but if you do thanks for being a great mod you helped this site a lot
|
| p4p hey could you lift the ban for my punchforpunch account? its been a year already please dev
|
| JohanBring I like your musical taste! Would you like to review an album I just released for a german band I made a music video for called Dancing Pigeons?
|
| Irving Happy new year 2016 Mufasa. Hope you're doing well.
|
| Sowing Hoping all is well dude.
|
| FLCL Thoughts on Portishead?
|
| Hep Kat I hope you don't die before I come visit you in Australia.
|
| Yuli i'm sorry it took me this long to get into A U R O R A but it's real good. miss u btw : )
|
| ConcubinaryCode Hey Dev, I sent a news article but it's formatted a bit weirdly. If you could use your magic and then approve it I'd be grateful. :)
|
| MotoOnSputnik Could you wipe my ratings? Last time ill ask i swear to god haha.
|
| FLCL I still need to listen to his other two albums and whatever other compilations he put out. Up until yesterday I had only heard his work on the samurai champloo soundtrack
|
| TMobotron Ah, I hear you man! I've been pretty slow on the music intake this year, though I'm kinda trying to play catch-up now. Your Benjamin Damage dig is definitely one of the better ones I've heard this year.
|
| FLCL Do you like nujabes?
|
| DarkNoctus hey, could you take a look at the negs on this review? i find it difficult to believe a lot of them are genuine considering that none of the comments have been negative, quite confused about the ratio. thanks. http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/68857/So-Hideous-Laurestine/
|
| TMobotron Dev, what's good man? What are you up to these days? Anything music related? Hope all is well with you buddy.
|
| ASnideReturns Ah, no worries man. Not really a fan of "bro"step where it's just in your face wubs and such?
|
| ASnideReturns Hey Dev, all of my admittedly dumb decisions aside, could I get your opinion on my new track?
|
| evilford Hey Dev just wanted to say thanks again, that was very kind of you. I will ensure that you don't regret it :-)
|
| FLCL So are you going through all the electronic artists you can find a-z?
|
| Jots I was disappointed man. gonna give 'er more spins but something isn't sitting right. I really don't like the placement of that second track, and seeing how much of the runtime it takes up it kinda ... idk. I wasn't too engaged. The high points of the album are glorious tho
|
| ShitsofRain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvzF-lpOYd8 well done kiwis
|
| Jots you heard new Floating Points?
|
| Jots yeah I keep forgetting that keeping up with new releases is basically your bread and butter lol
|
| Jots https://apollobrown360.bandcamp.com/album/grandeur
|
| wwf Thanks a bunch!
|
| wwf Hey, weird question... Ive got nothing but love for sputnik, but I also am in a songwriting group on ultimate guitar that I would love to get some sputnikkers in on since sputnikmusic is one of the most musically talented sites I frequent. Is there any chance you'd be ok with me making a list or something advertising it? I understand if you don't want me to, but I don't think sput's forum would be a good fit for it. I'm sorry I'm not explaining it well, but I can link you the group if you'd like
|
| MotoOnSputnik Do you think you could wipe my ratings one more time, sorry about that
|
| jmnewcomer18 Hey bud. I just started being active on sputnik again for the first time in about a year and I wanted to start fresh. I was wondering if you could give me a ratings wipe and change my username to JMNewcomer94. Thanks in advance
|
| Jots is the lack of Spaceape a plus or minus?
|
| Jots heard new Kode9 yet?
|
| Deez Thats sorted man, Thanks a lot!
|
| Deez Dont know where to go here man, Never used the forum before, wont let me post at all says deezer666, you do not have permission to access this page. blah blah This could be due to one of several reasons: Im sure you know the rest. Saw you where a mod? Im not banned,never been banned Anyway hope I/you can sort this. Thanks.
|
| evilford hey Dev, you know what's up with last.fm? like why it hasn't been feeding scrobbles onto user profiles for like 2 or 3 weeks?
|
| Asdfp277 Hey dev, sorry to bother you but I'm desperate ;-; do you happen to know of this "chillstep" single, it had CD cover like most electronic singles, it was pale cerulean cover and the background was white. It was kind of bubbly and sunny but it was definitely chillstep, please help that's all I know I'm desperate ;-;
|
| coneren HEY IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE LIKE CARPENTER BRUT DUDE?
|
| Tyler. Huh. I loved gloss drop so I'll probably like this.idk how I feel about the more serious aspect, I loved how fun and how a lot of their songs sounds like a jam session gone right. Idk. I hope you review it though.
|
| Tyler. What did you think of the new battles lp? I haven't listened to it yet and I'm excited
|
| Relinquished yea I got her new one on my to-listen list. overlooked artist.
|
| klap that new Noisia EP tho
|
| Pon I seriously hope I'm not getting the blame for what happened in that Carly thread
|
| TalonsOfFire Hi dev, wondering if my B4MV review that was featured could be flagged? sputnikmusic.com/review/68163/Bullet-for-My-Valentine-Venom/
|
| DaveyBoy I'll give it a quick once over. Kinda surprised to see the relatively low ratings before yours tbh.
|
| DaveyBoy Question without notice. I noticed your decent rating for the Active Child LP. You reckon Id like it. IE: Is it catchy?
|
| Kman418 i mean from what ive read they exist but they exist to the extent that all lights ****ed exists
|
| Kman418 i am pretty sure closes vol 1 acid memories and hooper bay don't actually exist online
|
| danielito19 was planning on waiting until the page rolled over to post in there again. also planning on simply avoiding contact with him entirely, on his old account he harassed me nonstop so I feel as though it would be best to not talk. Thanks for the advice, I feel really stupid about it.
|
| danielito19 hey i screwed up and incited some drama (regarding rocketsfall aka futures) in the rdj album thread. regardless of whether i'm in the right i feel bad for starting the s***storm and would like some guidance - what should I do about this situation?
|
| Jots I don't suppose you had plans to review new Chelsea Wolfe eh
|
| Asdfp277 Sorry to bother you, but I wanted to ask: did my edit of Alaska Thunder****'s page not pass the submit, or was it just rejected? :/
|
| thedragonsdame Says my profile was banned for no reason..I would like to any of my post and my profile but can not.. Please help me with this
|
| BlueSwan Sorry http://humanheartrecords.bandcamp.com/album/glimpse-the-unthinkable-2
|
| Insurrection Can you do av changes btw? i was wondering if i could get it changed to this: http://i.imgur.com/P4B8E2n.gif
|
| BlueSwan Dev I added a band called buttons to the site but when I added an ep the artwork didn't show and now when I edit the album info and try to upload a pic I get "Duplicate entry '198397' for key 'PRIMARY'" can you the album or page so I can start over !
|
| Insurrection Hey dev, it seems my BtBaM review was unflagged :/ is there a way that can be fixed? (the mechanism in general cause this is not the first time it's happened)
|
| Arcade gonna be reviewing new Chemical Brothers?
|
| manosg oh ok thanks for the clarification.
|
| manosg Hey Deviant, I was wondering why my Blackmore's Night news item gotd. I'd appreciate any feedback so I can correct any mistakes next time.
|
| Insurrection Nice to see you dug the new btbam to some extent
|
| Rev hey dev, can you fix the art for lumine? sputnik hates whenever i try an add things to the database. here's a link to the art (the primary is the blue one)https://twitter.com/bansheetweet/status/617926678841442304/photo/1
|
| Yuli yeah dylan nabbed me a copy of it a couple months ago and i've been steadily listening to it since, haha what about you?
|
| Yuli hey bud, was thinking of covering new bansheebeat soon if that works for u
|
| DrGonzo1937 I corrected Sechnsucht. Be sure to give me more feedback, if you get chance, Dev.
|
| CusmanX1 Well, I don't want to harass you, but I noticed that the "Pat Metheny Unity Group" exist on Sputnik, so "Kin" should be definitely removed from "Pat Metheny" page, sorry for the too much posts
|
| Insurrection Yeah, dunno why but its hitting the spot right now lol
|
| Jots I'm a bit off-put by some of his choices. curious to hear what you end up thinking tho
|
| Jots scratch that. it's not good
|
| Jots new stendeck oh man oh man
|
| Rev Ay Dev what were your final thoughts on the record?
|
| CusmanX1 Like I said the last one is tagged on the web as "Pat Metheny Unity Group" so I don't know, except for this it seems ok, thank you!
|
| Koris Hey man, how's it been? Haven't talked to many of the staffers in a while, just wanted to say hi
|
| CusmanX1 Hello, what you decided to do with the "Pat Metheny" issue?
|
| MewCore I'm just wondering if I can resubmit my review of Human Achievement tomorrow or is it in some query system that will be done automatically? Thank you!
|
| Piripichotes Bruv, can I know why my ratings were erased? I have a slight intuition that you had something to do with it... if not, I apologize.
|
| Rev oh wow, thank you so much dude!! hope you enjoy the rest of the record!
|
| CusmanX1 Well, the albums that should be moved from "Pat Metheny" to "Pat Metheny Group" are as follows: "Offramp", "The First Circle", "Still Life (talking)", "We Live Here" and "Imaginary Day", there's also another one, "Kin", but someone says that is by "Pat Metheny Unity Group", so in my opinion the right thing is to collapse everything on the "Pat Metheny" page. Thanks for your time.
|
| Rev hey check your inbox!
|
| CusmanX1 Hi, there are some wrong albums here about Pat Metheny. In "Pat Metheny" page there is stuff that he did with "Pat Metheny Group", "We Live Here" for example, or some albums are on both pages, like "Still Life". They said I'll could ask to you, thanks in advance.
|
| Rev hey dude, what's your email? i wanna send you something in a few weeks
|
| deathschool Hi. You're my favorite cat DJ, and my mom was a cat DJ.
|
| SPRFanOf5H hey man, im gonna be posting a review on Galantis' new album but the album art isn't appearing even tho I did a jpg file. Is it cool if you can help fix that so I can post it, because I don't wanna post a review without the album art haha. Cheers man.
|
| Rinx7 Opinions on new ASC?
|
| Jots you're probably already tracking but there's a new Leftfield album
|
| ShitsofRain Did you get the time to listen to MJC's new album yet?
|
| ComeToDaddy Out of curiosity, are we allowed to add albums to the database that don't have album art? Radical Face had an album in 2003 called 'Junkyard Chandelier' which is available on his site, but doesn't have any official album art. Not sure on what to do about that one.
|
| Skoj aye no worries, I'm glad you have a life outside of here. I posted the review, got some great criticism from SillyCaringRabbitFriend, and will edit it when my outside life calms down a bit. Should you find yourself a moment, I'd appreciate your input as well. If not, I'll post my next one on the boards and might ask you for a little proofing. Thanks for responding.
|
| PotsyTater it really came across as a bit of a throw away item but the way he talks about it made it seem like it would have been more than that
|
| ShitsofRain you're back ^_^ wen's recent ep is pretty good ai? what were u digging after phace or was nothing good enough yet or didnt you have the time for such things lately?
|
| PotsyTater were u as disappointed with the new record store day amon tobin ep as i was?

|
| favorites. As I've said earlier, however, the reviews I got can be wiped. Hopefully I'm not wasting too much of your precious time, Dev.
|
| In reality, looking back at the reviews I wrote for this account, there were only two I legitimately felt ashamed of: my first (The Left Rights' self-titled release; a bit justified, but still) and the rev I concocted for Emmure's Eternal Enemies (a little too ranty on my end, coupled with me basically mentioning most of the flaws others have pointed out). I was content with pretty much the rest of them, though, with Gorillaz' Demon Days and Faith No More's Introduce Yourself being my personal
|
| IntriguingSergei Hey there, any chance of a feature? This album only came out a few days ago: http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/66670/Bubblegum-Octopus-Tough/
|
| I'm sorry for not being clear before. Everything on my old account (i.e. this one) can be banished to the otherworld, and the account I've been using since late August/early September can stay in one piece.
|
| Once again, hello, Dev. By any chance do you mind removing all my ratings, reviews, and comments? To be more accurate, is it alright if you can discard pretty much everything I have *not* on my current profile and whatnot (that would be Angelboros)? In advance, thank you very much.
|
