My latest EP 'Series50' on my label The Dub Factory has just been released.
Four tracks of deep, minimal, glitchy dub at 50bpm, all produced within Orion, with some external fx.

Re: New EP - 'Series50'
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Sorry but a simple 4 bar loop played over and over for 7 minutes and run through way too much iZotope Vinyl is just not my cup of tea. It seems like you're putting more effort into selling it than you did composing it......sorry just being honest.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Not sure what you listened to but there's no 4 bar loop for 7 minutes and no iZotope vinyl to be heard anywhere.
It's perhaps interesting that people who are actually active in making and releasing music just used three of the tracks in a genre-specific podcast and is being passed around by who knows how many people? Maybe it's not something you're into or understand. You're welcome to your view but it seems like you're putting more effort into criticising than releasing your own material. What do they say about arm chair critics? Sounds like you're turning into one of those grumpy old b*stards who complain about everything they don't like without a simple "I like your production in x, but it's not what I'm into". There's a lot of music that gets posted that may not be a favourite but I feel it's more useful to a person to be constructive or to ignore the post entirely, especially if you're doing nothing of worth of your own. Just being honest. But thanks for listening.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'"Asteroid Mining"....."Dub Observer"......"The Dubbing Grounds".....Variations on a Theme".
https://pro.beatport.com/release/series50-ep/1702640 All simple loops repeated over and over with way too much whatever effect you used to make it sound like a vinyl album that's been sitting in the dust for ten years. Maybe some people like that "genre" but to me it sounds like it took you five minutes to create each one. Yes I'm a grumpy old bastard but at least I'm not a pretentious wannabe who's putting more effort into selling his music than creating it...... Anyway if you promote your stuff like you have here you can expect some reaction. The fact that it's not positive can be viewed as constructive if you look at it the right way. No I don't release my synth based stuff because I'm not satisfied with it's quality yet....I'd rather keep it to myself than be embarrassed by released something like the stuff above............. Anyway good luck with your sales, I hope you do well. If you sell a bunch let us know so we can put our four bar loops up for sale too......
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Years ago when I was much younger and more concerned about what I got out of my music than what I put into it I submitted a bunch of demos for various projects and was turned down quite resoundingly for most of them. People were for the most part polite but I once got laughed at to my face and you know what ? They were right......it sucked. Nothing like a solid smack in the face from reality to wake one up.......................
Re: New EP - 'Series50'kmatm is making above-average dub techno. It's okay to not like dub techno, but people do greatly enjoy this stuff, and it's been around since the early 90's.

There *is* movement to it, it's just on a much longer time-scale than commercial music (I have a 2-CD set by TV Victor. It's three tracks, and fills the CD's to capacity). Brian "balistic" Prince

Re: New EP - 'Series50'Good Lord then I don't want to hear "average dub techno". How can you tell the difference ? Whatever, different strokes for different folks. If he finds artistic satisfaction in such simplistic endeavors then more power to him. Many times I've driven across a few hundred miles of open desert and if I had to listen to that the whole way I'd be a mass murderer by the time I got to my destination or I would have fallen asleep ten minutes after leaving. I just don't see the point of 10 minutes of the same loop over and over with a few bits added here and there. I would find that terribly unsatisfying to both create and listen to..........
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Ha ha, what a joke, I needed a laugh in the morning. Pretty pathetic really to have to stoop to such lowly "you suck and your music's shit". You're making yourself look more like the fool the more you speak, and no one needs to hear it. How about we grow up and leave the music making to the big boys and the ones mature enough not to cry when they see someone surpassing them.
Balistic, thanks, you obviously 'get it' Teksucksalot, suck a dick. Seems to be what you're good at.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Take the cat fight to PM please you two!
Re: New EP - 'Series50'I was waiting for that
I'm done, no point arguing with children. Back on topic - the Bandcamp release will be out in a few days.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Waiting for my comment?
Re: New EP - 'Series50'
Surpassing ? That is hilarious. If you want to pick the simplest "genre" out there and call yourself a musician please feel free. I prefer a challenge........
Mark certainly that's worthy of deleting this thread. I simply gave my honest criticism. Like I said I've gotten some pretty harsh criticism in my life and it's made me stronger. I guess kids these days just aren't equipped for the harsh light of reality.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'"Honest criticism"? Someone's delusional. You've just contradicted yourself in one post by saying "If you want to pick the simplest "genre" out there and call yourself a musician please feel free." then claiming the moral high ground.
If you've got nothing worthwhile to say, and you don't, go high jack another thread some place else. You've already made yourself a laughing stock and seem determined to continue. It's people with an attitude like yours that has made this forum a fairly miserable place full of miserable people. Personal attacks and incredibly immature posts are not 'criticism', but hey, I don't need to prove whose dick is bigger.
Re: New EP - 'Series50'Wow son you've got a long hard life ahead of you if your skin is that thin. My first post was simple honest criticism. I stand by what I said. To me it seems like you've put more time into selling your music than you put into creating it.....sorry if that's too harsh for you but life often is............
Ok out of respect for Mark I'll leave it at that.........have a nice day.
