Re: music you make vs music you want to make (72 replies, posted in General Discussion)
" There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated
through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all
time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through
any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it.
It is not your business to determine how good it is; nor how valuable
it is; nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business
to keep it yours, clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You
do not have to believe in yourself or your work.
You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you.
Keep the channel open.
No artist is pleased. There is no satisfaction whatsoever at
anytime. There is only a queer, divine dissatisfaction; a blessed
unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the
others." - Martha Graham

Re: why do you compose/listen to chip? (129 replies, posted in General Discussion)
i learned how to use impulse tracker in 1997 at a two-week summer day-camp, at an age where your parents would still ship you off to summer camp after school ended for the year. that fall, modplug tracker was released for windows 95.
i have been using it ever since. i am a stubborn man. i've been telling people that i'll switch to renoise "next week" for the better part of a decade.
to be honest, i hadn't the faintest idea that there was a "chip scene" until a year or two ago.

Re: How do you feel when you listen to your own music? (76 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I've noticed that people who think their stuff is "the best shit ever" often write very little stuff beyond ~1 LP, and then focus entirely on convincing the world that their stuff is "the best shit ever". Too much ego, not enough music.

Topic: How do you feel when you listen to your own music? (76 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I'm going to ramble off on a few ideas quick that I've been thinking about recently
I would be interested in hearing other people's thoughts or experiences related to the perception of music written by other people vs. music you have written yourself.
1) In general, I spend a fair bit of time listening to my own music: not because I think it's the shit, but rather because I find it to be different experience entirely than listening to music made by people whose brains i don't live inside of
Self-made works are neutral in nature to my psyche (they don't introduce ideas/feelings that are foreign to my brain), yet the music is enriched by my past experiences and full knowledge of the referential content present in the music (i.e. i instantly have a complete a deep understanding of what I am listening to, allowing me to experience it without trying to understand what I'm hearing.)
2) How emotionally/psychically "connected" to your output are you? Is it something you make, or is it *you* manifested? Do you love it like a mother loves a child, or do you file it away and forget about it, like a case of empties waiting to be recycled?
2.5) Does your attachment to/opinion of your stuff change over time? Say, the night you made it vs. two weeks later vs. two years later?
3) Have you ever had experience in collaborating with somebody who valued their output in a different way than your own attitudes towards same? Did it work out?
Basically, I'm really curious about other people's experience are re: listening to their own music.

Except that Beck didn't actually make those LSDJ tracks himself.
"The two artists who are responsible for the songs in the 4-song extended play are 8-Bit and Paza Rahm, both of whom are little-known artists." see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell_Yes_%28EP%29
