DATATHRASH MIXTAPE 2 (Page 2 of 3)

but for serious, I guess I have a different outlook on the whole shindig. I go to hardcore shows all the time (i played a my first [house] show with all hardcore bands last night) and outside of chip, I don't listen to much electronic music. Besides songs that are pure noise, I haven't heard anything that is 'too out there' as far as being heavy or aggressive. I've been looking to Datathrash to highlight aggressive chip artists that otherwise might not get any exposure in the chip scene because of the style they do. So when I say there are some surprising unce (I don't use that derogatorily) tracks on the compilation, I mean more that I'm surprised tracks that could potentially be on other comps were submitted. Everything (expect for my track, it sounds so bland!) sounded great on the comp, don't get me wrong.
I'm really not quite sure what I'm trying to say... some of the songs don't match up with what "thrash" means to me. It means different things to everyone, so saying that doesn't mean anything, but yeah.
To use egr's phrase, I didn't expect a break from all the slobbering madness

I get what you're saying and actually I'm sort of glad you feel that way.  I don't want Datathrash to get too overly specific with style or sound else everything would just sound the same... ya dig?    "One man's thrash is another man's trash" is what my grandma always told me.

I like what you're getting at ghost, not that i feel totally alike. However, I will say, the second I see a Fighter X or some like, Je Mappelle release dropping on DThrash, I'd probably never come back again.

I have a personal problem where I can't really express how I feel without sounding like an asshole, so I wont sit here critiquing myself for half an hour. I'll instead say; It's not that I have a problem with the aforementioned artists, it's just that I (Perhaps I speak for quite a many) Want too see heavy, grimey chiptuners (new or old(Prefferably lesser known)) seeing the spotlight here on this label with their unique thrash style. So far, I'm happy with what I've heard.

I wrote a song, "A Surprising Amount of Unce" in celebration of all we've talked about here.
Unfortunately, I can't release it until Sunday cause it's my Weakly Beets submission and all.
I'll upload it when I can

I enjoyed listening. its mental and spasticated and great ! wasnt so keen on some of the 4/4 unce ones, they were a bit too drilling for old nearly 30yr old ears......... My favourites were Wizwars, and Bitface's tunes. 'most irratating award' definately goes to track 8 and them feckin vocals.  . Good shit
