I think you mean whittled, not widdled

Order 66 02-26-2014 01:50 PM

That's no knock to you but it's clearly just a downside to cranking out the tracks like this. If you sat on all the ideas, widdled them out and spent hard time on the best tracks and making them as solid as can be you'd be better off.

Seems sorta gimmicky what you're doing. But I admire your drive and passion.

He's just so fucking full of himself. He thinks he and BC are peers in the industry. What's that old quote? What a dust storm we create! Said the fly on the chariot wheel.

Order 66 02-26-2014 03:12 PM

Trotskilicious 02-26-2014 03:13 PM

Trotskilicious 02-26-2014 03:14 PM

if that's anyone who posted in the thread i apologize i figured it was just some guy so i could get my zings in

i'm just a better dressed version of that guy, at the end of the day

yo soy el mejor 02-26-2014 03:26 PM

sometimes it's so cold that it's impossible to look nice.

Trotskilicious 02-26-2014 03:37 PM

perhaps, i always feel i look nicer in the winter time because i have a variety of hats, wool sweaters, scarves, long sleeve shirts, and now a peacoat

so i'm all warm and snug and feelin cool

Tuscaloosa 02-26-2014 03:48 PM

Hey, thanks for the feedback, and for listening. I'm sure a lot of these songs could use some more polish and refinement... but this project is more about forcing myself to work. I'm fairly happy with how things are turning out though. I'm up to 57 songs now and I haven't found it difficult to come up with ideas yet, so that's good. I think what I may end up doing when all is said and done is pick the best 12 to 15 songs and record a proper album. I have no idea how I'm going to narrow it down from 365 songs though, but I'll burn that bridge when I come to it. :cool:

I'm not sure how you got that idea... :confused:

I haven't tried to equate my work with BC or anyone else. I'm just doin' my thing and letting people know about it in case they may be interested. I don't know how that makes me "full of" myself.

slunken 02-27-2014 12:43 AM

your use of smilies in addition to your posts leads one to believe you're smug and glib

not sure what pisses me off more - shameless self-promotion or the fact that this thread hasn't been moved/merged to its proper place

I'm Hardcore 02-27-2014 12:44 AM

meeeeeeeeeeeeeeek warrrrrior courageous and hummmmble

Ah, I can see that. I'm really not a smug person. Past online interactions with people have lead some to believe that I am aloof or bitter. I started using smilies just to lighten the mood. It's just a habit.

As for the other point... well, sorry to offend you. I really didn't post this thread to personally piss you off.

Haa! That's my album cover for January. That's a picture of me.

slunken 02-27-2014 12:53 AM

its okay - i'm more mad at myself that i get so mad about it. i think its just the way i was raised.

Trotskilicious 02-27-2014 12:53 AM

YOUR HAT SUCKS

slunken 02-27-2014 12:55 AM

i dislike how in the culture of the arts you have to be a salesman as well as the artist. that just seems so phony to me.

*pours heart and soul into art*
*goes online HEY GUYS HAVE A LISTEN TO THIS I THINK YOU'LL REALLY ENJOY WAT U HEAR*

god i hate salesman

slunken 02-27-2014 12:56 AM

I agree with that completely. But it seems like the only other option is absolutely nobody hears what you do. There's a fine tipping point between self-aggrandizing asshole and just wanting to share your art.

:rofl: it's also ill-fitting. But it was 10 degrees that day. Around here, warm is more important that looking fashionable.

I wish I had an R2D2 hat.

Trotskilicious 02-27-2014 01:11 AM

well then get some fashionable warm clothes you dickhead

slunken 02-27-2014 01:15 AM

move/merge this thread YOU dickhead :shrug:

Trotskilicious 02-27-2014 01:20 AM

seriously slunken this is so minor can we keep taking pot shots at this guy i mean, that's a thread on its own

the proletarian boards should merge in equality, none of this bourgeois separateness, that's how they conquer us comrade

slunken 02-27-2014 01:30 AM

It's just the point. He's getting exactly what he wants which is more exposure. Imagine if every post in the thread for posting your own music was a separate thread. Everyone else managed to follow the rules and common etiquette.

slunken 02-27-2014 01:31 AM

i had to post that from my phone because i had to reset my router AGAIN

slunken 02-27-2014 01:31 AM

time warner does not like me torrenting at all i'm convinced they're trying to throttle my data

Trotskilicious 02-27-2014 02:34 AM

of course they are it's TIME WARNER

WARNER BROTHERS

come on man

Trotskilicious 02-27-2014 02:35 AM

That's rad man. Don't you think you'll probably be burned out of ideas by the time you reach the 100-150 range though? You don't wanna be like one of those guys like Corgan who just works himself to death and ends up draining the well dry. (well you probably WOULD wanna be like Corgan- What musician wouldn't? but you get my point)

Do you actually just record a song a day? Or do you spend one day and record like 5 or 6 and so on and so forth?

Also, one of the songs I checked out had the exact same melody as In The End by Green Day off of their Dookie album.:smoke::D

Tuscaloosa 02-27-2014 10:53 AM

slunken is losing his fucking mind

Awe dammit! Eh, well, I guess it's really not that unusual for a song to sound like another song... but at least I didn't sample it. :p

Yeah, I usually work on one song at a time, and when I'm done, I'm done for the day. Some days I'm more productive and will actually write more than one song, but I only record one a day. Some days I'll be working on a song for a few hours and scrap it and go to something else, but I save the song to work on another day.

I don't know if the well will run dry, but I don't have to operate in any specific genre. So, I can pretty much take inspiration from any source. I'm trying to absorb odd scales like gypsy, Indian and Celtic. Also, there's always alternate tunings. The only genre I'm pretty sure I'll be avoiding is rap, because me rapping would be horribly embarrassing.

slunken 04-22-2014 08:29 PM

can you link me to some "prog rock" songs you've done?

slunken 04-22-2014 08:31 PM

i would love to hear your take on this superior genre
