Ok peeps i've had a bad week and i'm p*ssed off, so i'm gonna get something off my chest,
What has happened to people putting out some well thought out tracks,
2 me it just seems like it's quantity over quality, ive been listening to a lot of tracks on here lately and there is nothing that is justifying the;
"This is the best track ive heard all year" Comments i keep seeing,
You have 60 comments and ratings but only 5 downloads, if the track is that great then u would D/L it,
All i'm saying is stop kissing arse and start being a bit more realistic,
It's starting to get boring people, and as a result people aren't trying anymore to put out something that is really worthy of a nomination, or a rating.
Stop the chart chasing and lets hear a bit more quality in the music.

I agree with you to an extent but you have to remember this isnt a music site for professionals, most of the people on here are hobbyists and havent got the time or skill to keep constantly making great tracks all the time. In honesty there have been some less than average tunes getting more attention than their worth but alot of people have different tastes and what might be amazing to me might be a complete pile of sh!t to you! lol

Ive turned out 4 songs in a week n a half.....and im quite content within myself that ive put a good bit of effort into each one. Now, i might have this quantity thing goin on yeah, but, isnt it possible to write a nice song every 2 days......id have thought its very possible. Not that mine are brill, but i have good ears, and im confident that they aint sh*t. OF COURSE many many ppl will not like em, but thats just how ppls opinions differ....nout to do with a bad song really...coz even the worst one will be liked by somebody.
HAVING SAID ALL THAT.....i am siding with u on it a little, and i know where ur coming from. `I feel ur pain` is an expression ive heard used towards me in my little rants many times lol.
There is effort involved in evrything thats posted......just mibbi different levels of such.
chill

yeah i agree with some of that...but you must be not listening to much..imo...theres been some really good tracks up of late...yes theres been some not so good ...ive been putting alot of it down to personal taste.....i agree there has been alot of mutual ass kissing as well in the comment boxes.... ive noticed the thing about lack of downloaded tracks...some weeks there is a fair bit of downloading other weeks ive noticed tracks that have been high in the charts with no downloads let alone 5...good thing about this site... i think is you dont really need to download as you can stream them ...but there are tracks that 2 me are a must download... its all personal taste...you also got to remember the chart is basicaly made up of people who have pimped there tracks in the new mp3 section...so its basicaly a msgboard chart not a site chart...but hey it's all for fun

Does happen but its all part of the site I guess. There's a few people on here I know I can rely on to give me honest feedback, and thats who I pay attention to

Ok , I gotta agree with Minus,
Ive actualy stopped comenting on tracks cause I got tired of reading the same comments on most tracks I listened to. According to the comments everyone is brilliant and its the best track, Im not saying that all the tracks were either realy good or realy bad, but its become a it tit for tat again.
I was just getting a bit sick of putting down honest comments and me looking like the bad one all the time.

I for one appreciate honesty in the commets I get.. ohh and thats why you dont comment on my stuff anymore ditheramb... I see... As far as the same kinda comments all the time... I must confess that i dont really listen to some of the genres here too often.. therfore i for one cant give really in depth comments on said tracks... I will however say if I like it and i feel its good.. If i dont like it, i dont comment on it, cause i figure maybe Im just not gettin' it... maybe thats why some of the peoples comments are a little "generic" sounding..
of course even i would take exception if someone said my voice was the greatest ever.... (Heck even i dont see that happening anytime soon)...

hahahahahahha looks like I became way ahead of this thread by default
![]() I think one just has to sort out where each artiste is coming from.....a newbie posting a raw song with lots of potential is worthy of support in the hope that he/she'll develop as time goes by, but an old hand posting songs with little work put in is a bit depressing. Not taking a dig at anyone, just commenting in general....my own musical journey has been a struggle all my life, I hear a lot of tunes and ideas in my head but it takes years and years of practice to get to be able to do it even half-decently. A good tune? Hey, just hum the bloody thing into a mike and record it, but if you want to post a song to showcase, then put in the bloody effort to do it right and I'll support you. The BEST song I've heard here, is a song I rate wayyyyyyyyyyy up there in the clouds, somehow it just connects with me, there is a message in that song that whispers to my soul. "Let It Shine", by Mark Ellis. Listen to it, think about a loved one who's passed away, and then tell me if I'm kissing ass :) Mick, I havent; heard your latest stuff, but you were coming along very well and getting yourself into new territory, hope you've got them drums and etc things worked out, I'll be checking out your stuff. We don't seem to be discussing production much. A pity, 'cos I think production is part and parcel of an indie musician's job. ooops, rambling again. nice to be back :) Raggy |
