Back with a new assortment of music! Busy with work over the last month so I haven't kept up as well. Here we go!


First off, this is an amazing article to just open your eyes about the state of electronic music today.

link

Today, everyone and anyone can be a music artist. Everyone can go out and buy bandcamp and make a great hit. Great songs aren't rare anymore. When you put out music, you compete almost literally with the entire world of artists, because everyone can listen to anything anywhere at any time for almost nothing. Making a good song doesn't mean that much anymore. There needs to be something more, and unfortunately (or fortunately), this is the first time in history we have come up to this issue.



Matveï - Piano Daddy
Piano dubstep with an electro-swing vibe to it. Sweet.





Besu - Resolve
Almost Bisu T_T Almost a great tribute! Still a great song.





Orbital - Halcyon On and On
A classic!





Black Tiger Sex Machine - Moonlight
The name o.O the sounds O.o





Mako - Beam Ft. Angel Taylor
The groove on this is sweet.





Emily Coy - Poppers (Saelios Double Take Remix)
Really unique hip-hoppy sound.





Mario M - Distance
Needed something soft to chill out after the previous ones.





Singularity - Rift (feat. Jenn Lucas)
Everything Singularity touches is almost pure gold. o_0





Uppermost - Passion
Uppermost!





Aaron Static - Intrepid Journey
In my normal phases where I go between hard and chill, and this is perfect.





The Bloody Beetroots & Junior - Albion
The picture in this song makes me feel weird things. The song's great too.





Starcom - Cycles ft. John Peters
I'm a sucker for good melodic solos.





Tritonal - Still With Me (Ft. Cristina Soto) (Seven Lions Remix)
I'm also a big sucker for vocals as well.





SEAWAVES - Whisper A Slow Motion Life
Damned vocals are too powerful.





Chicane - What Am I Doing Here (Walsh & McAuley Remix)
Most amazing trance song I've listened to in a long, long time. It's a bit stunning really.





Hopefully I'll be back next week!

eh,its definitely easier to make a track from nothing now, but pretty much all of the amateur stuff is terribly mastered and produced, even if it has a good idea behind it. Like the snare in the first track you posted. It sounds like someone with a brass asshole farting into a cardboard box.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Completely disagree. If anything I think it's much tougher for emerging artists to become recognized because they have to compete globally with established brands and professionals.

A great hit doesn't mean it's successful. It means it just sounds good. The problem is, there are just way too many songs that sound good nowadays, and they're coming out at a ridiculously rapid pace, and not all of them are only from well established artists. It used to be some kid could make a good song from his basement, but now, almost any kid has the opportunity to make any song they want, and leverage whatever creative talent they have, and then post it on Youtube and Soundcloud, promote it, and hope it goes viral or something.

I could go through at least 200+ songs daily (I limit myself because of time), and that's not even remotely close to what is coming out. I don't monitor the raw/direct channels. And at any given point I can go back through some other day's 200 song list and go, oh hey, this song sounds better than I first listened to it, and at any point I can go look at some song I enjoyed and go, I don't enjoy it that much anymore. This is the eventual result of music flooding, where there's just too much music coming in that's good that you don't owe your allegiance to one side or anything anymore. Artist's album costs too much? Well, tons of similar music you also like as well. It's that simple.

For some reason you guys completely ignore the argument and the article and just go, "hey if I didn't enjoy some of the songs you posted, everything you said means nothing." None of the songs ever have relevance to my topic. I post music that I found and enjoyed, nothing else. I should have kept the giant Spotlight and Music banners.


There's a huge difference in appreciating music and appreciating different tastes, versus just being "grossed out by the shittiness that is dubstep" or some similar version of "this is asshole farting into a box". And just because a song isn't mastered perfectly does not automatically mean it's shit.
