I'm on neither side as it is SUCH  a non-issue, but:
I find it funny that the new influx of "erhmergurd sort [something a small amount of people find annoying] out jezzus" are becoming as annoying and frequent as the very type of threads they are hating on.
Also are people aware you're not bound by contract to click and read EVERY thread on the site? Just wondering

For our sophomore release New Zealand’s Fauxhound delivers an emotional mixture of spoken word musings with noise and drone influenced chiptune, which sometimes strikes out with flourishes of dub inspired grooves and shimmering summery sounds, all of which are tainted with the black paintbrush of Fauxhound’s now trademark desperate depression and pessimistic self-worth. From the circus ground twinkly melody on the outset of ‘AIRPORTAL’ to the immediately confrontational vocal interludes, ‘This Is Not A Game, Boy’ melds familiar and seemingly innocent sounds into a medley of dark and dank sadness.
With influences too far, wide and convoluted to list or name, Fauxhound’s sound is a truly unique one, inside and outside chiptune circles. Taking to the piggy tracker this time around, Fauxhound’s pallet of melodies and styles grows ever larger and tainted by his own keen sense of the macabre-sounding, and this release definitely sounds like his most definitive, defiant and expressive output to date.

Grab It Here!

EDIT w/actual insight because it's a good question:

I tend to write music that I'd want to listen to, so when I'm listening to my music usually I feel pretty good about it. I understand why people can hate on their own stuff so much though, but as I'm writing JUST for myself there isn't that layer of having to deal with other's expectations. Not in an egotistical way, I don't expect anyone to give a shit about what I write so it's a two-way road of non-expectational-care
I've also found listening to past releases of my own has really helped me grow as a composer, as however much you're proud of something there is always going to be bits you like and bits you don't so you know what needs cut. The only problem is mixing this with writing purely for personal enjoyment as a product means I end up writing music based almost entirely on what I prominently listen to at that moment outside of chip (hence my sudden obsession with writing math rock/jazzcore infused chippity)

I have one standing at a year and a half which is only about a third done, other less serious things 2 months, my most recent release kind of fumbled along in 4 months then was tied together rapidly in a 5th month.
Depends really
