Or you can click on the link below but stop the current one playing first or you'll end up with 2 playing at the same time.

Unsigned home studio electronic music experimental made about 10 years ago with Atari, Cubase, Casio FZ-1 sampler, Yamaha DX7, Roland D50, Novation BassStation Rack and Mackie CR1604 mixer.

I'd taped, from a play on the radio, the words of a strange boy who said he was sending messages through his music. Obviously it had to be sampled and I made this music to put the sample in. While he was speaking there was some weird music playing so my music had to fit with that.

It's a bit experimental and none of my friends like it but I think it's got something - don't know what though. Feel free to insult it.

I'm putting my old music on YouTube so I can get some honest opinions about it and maybe some constructive criticism.

The first minut and 5:56 is freaking awsome. You need to keep that and use if for something new. The middle is good but the beginning and end is so cool and interesting it stands out. I especially like the obscure sampled stuff in your songs. Any sounds that have there own story or explanation, in my opinion, make the music/sound 3 dimensional. There's music I've made that was a minute long but would take 10 minutes to explaine the samples I used to make it.

Thanks again. Most of the music I've uploaded to YouTube was made many years ago and I don't really want to go back to it. I want to get rid of all that old equipment that's never used now and is just cluttering up my bedroom. I hope that one day you'll upload some of the music you've made. I have a feeling it will be interesting.

cool track, i like the artwork, hope to hear more of your work soon.

Thanks for all the kind comments madmomentsgo and thanks for subscribing. More music coming soon (when I can find the time).

This reminds me of intro to Peep Show from the first season before they used that Blink 182 song. I am not saying you copied, I am saying that song is awesome and I really like this one. You got some talent here, bud, it's just going to take an experienced listener to appreciate it. That's my problem too.

I mean, there's some obvious things that only a rookie would do in this song, but from an artistic instead of a technical aspect, it's awesome. The skills will come, stick with it.

Thanks ShogaNinja - I appreciate your kind comments. I was expecting words like 'boring' and 'crap'. I made this about 10 years ago (long before Peep Show) and I was going through an experimental phase.

3.) I will definately upload some of my stuff now! You have inspired me. I will be doing that very very soon. I may even work on that today. Yes, it's very interesting stuff. Some potentially good, some not so good. But all interesting I assure you! Looking back it's been almost 10 years since I made my first song on MTV Music Generator for PS1! Wow, all that time and I still can't pick a Genre to stick with!

2.) Getting rid of your old equipment....that's funny because the reason I've found your videos is because I was researching equipment I was buying(DX7IIFD, Boss DR-660, Xtreme Lead-1). I'm actually filling up my room with gear similar to yours, for several different reasons. Mostly cause it's going cheap nowdays and I kinda want a different sound than what's popular right now. I miss the 80's(I was only 8 when they ended). I guess I'm just trying to regain what I've missout out on.

1.) I completely understand about not wanting to go back to it. It's more fun creating than it is refining. I've got lots of tracks I've made myself that I don't want to put the time in to remake, but I can't just get rid of them either. Theres just so much material that I think I made that was good, really good, but I just didn't have the resources/talent at the time to make something that was a truly a good song.

I know the feeling but instead of trying to resurrect every song from my past I try to view them as lessons learned. I don't necessarily always put them on public display.

BUT come check out my channel, I have one such a song called Anticipation, that's old but too cool to die. I got new songs too. Check em out I bet you love them.

Around 3:45 is the Peep Show part I was referring to. Keep doing your thing.
