I havent found a combination via mp3 i like(the most universal for my intents); a 46mb conversion gets squashed to a 4-6mb even at the highest/best quality. Thusly, when a track reaches the nets it's acquired a murky film that sounds a bit thin and flat.
a lot of streaming sites like soundcloud transcode your file to 128kbps for streaming purposes, so it could just be that.
personally i'd never use anything lower than 320kbps* for mp3's if possible. the lossy nature of the format means you will lose at least some information in the conversion but the audible difference between 320kbps mp3 and wav is pretty miniscule.
*although i am kinda partial to the smokey character of 96kbps! 
damn bro. this is well on it's way to being god-tier chip dance.
loving the kick on DRIFTER, did you layer an 808 RS over it?
+1 j-thurs! so many battery contact woes.

tbh i'd be okay with this
yeah this is dead set unecessary effort unless you're just doing it for a lark
i listened to unique chip before it was cool!
up to your old tricks again, internet? you wacky little rascal you!
music theory will help you to understand the relationships between notes, chords, scales etc.
but in the end it won't really help you to write good music
bit of a mixed bag, i like it!

i don't think this is entirely the case, but i see where you're coming from. i think we can all be more enthusiastic about each other's work and then we can avoid any negative consequences a traditional ranking system might introduce.
i don't think it would really harm the site as much as some people have projected - i think the community that's been established here is, for the most part, mature and respectful enough to use a more prominent music charting system responsibly and also not make a huge deal over it.
tbh though the only reason i post music anywhere is so people will listen and perhaps give a little feedback (weeklybeats being the only exception), and anyone can make a thread for their song and get at least a couple of replies. so for me there's little need for any systematic charting.
yeah i saw this on gizmodo and thought it would be hella lame but it's actually pretty cool!
oh i would be so down for clear cart cases too
grab some black spray, finally be able to finish a playstationboy
some of you think that even this is an attempt to drum up hype.
gosh, i'm actually factually glad i'm not as cynical as that!
oh so they'll be white
or dark grey
or you wrote the word color in quotation marks to be deliberately confusing!
augh!

i am genuinely, extremely enthusiastic about my own musical creations* and i would love everyone to love them as much as i do. that said, 99% of the time that i decide to change a song based on another person's opinion i end up loving the song even more. i appreciate the view that one's art is one's own and that outside influence undermines artistic vision, but for me it all comes down to my own euphoric response elicited by the end result. the input of cm.o last week helped me take a pretty mediocre tune by my own standards and take it to that "euphoric response" level.
tl;dr the reason i whore my music out sometimes is to make myself feel good and i think that's okay.
*however: i think that i, myself, am a bit of a git!
