It's, hm. Interesting. Like, I don't mean this to insult musical tastes, but it seems like a lot of the songs are gimmick choices. A lot, but definitely not all! Hopping through Zombie Nation, Æsop Rock, John Fahey, Boris... Yeah, there's definitely good stuff for me here.

I'm hesitating to upload stuff because we're still in that "woah shit too many woah woah slow down" phase.

i will say that i prefer 'real' submissions to 'HAY GUYZ' ones anyway. as for me personally, i've been deliberately selecting songs i thought were good for whatever reason. i hope it mellows out and becomes that yah?

also i have a backlog of a lot of this stuff since...yeah it's kind of a deluge. maybe there should be rules as to how many you're allowed to submit a ___?

Well I think it's a bit much to say no metal or something, some people like it!
Sambo Master and The Pillows makes me want to knee myself in the face, it's easy enough to just not open it though.

I just feel like no one's actually interested in what I'm sending, and only rabite's things have interested me so far. I don't want to be wasting my time. That Albanian thing took my fucking ages.

I JUST TOLD YOU I REALLY LIKED WHAT YOU SENT do you want some songs of hte NEP

I still love that tabla track that you sent, daphny.

It seems like we're collectively figuring out how to 'do it right'. Maybe songs that are GOOD to us will just seem interesting to other people, while songs that are only interesting to us will seem gimmicky to other people? Like, just assume that whatever you send is gonna be kicked down one notch automatically.

Oh, Bluuuuuebelly: I do like the Albanian tracks, but (omg) they are so low-fi that I have a hard time listening to them. Much like that fucking awesome Syrian song that Rabite sent. It might just be my personal rig, but the tinny treble and compressed loudness hurt like a clusterfucking bastard. I still appreciate the inclusion of worldly and expressive stuff, though, so I'm kinda torn about quality of captured music vs. quality of reproduced music.

Interesting. Reminds me of something: I found this web page that took really old wax cylinder recordings and tried to 'fix' them digitally. Get rid of the noise and shit. They had samples of a bunch of different techniques, some of them working in three dimensions (who knows how).

All of them sounded like garbage compared to the originals. The digital correction just ripped all of the expression out of the performance. Sure, sure, the clicks went away, and the hissing wasn't as noticeable, but the actual music didn't sound 'real' anymore.

Man, that would be really cool. I can't do any downloading from OiNK for a while though. I checked my ration today, and it's not too hot.

That is a AFFIRMATIVE to Barnsey & Sorrows, also some Cruel Sea & Screaming Jets. But I have left most of my musics in another castle!

I signed up for this and just read all the "don't sign up if you hardly post here" stuff, so don't worry about it if I'm not notable enough.

I have lots of fun music that I'd love to share though, honest..

[Panoptic]

Hrm. I was going to send a couple of tracks off of The Inalienable Dreamless, but it doesn't seem like too many people on the list like that sort of thing. I was also going to do a pre-Post (lol?) Rock retrospective on Isis, but... same boat.

Guess I'll just keep listening for now.

[Corinth]

[boojiboy7]

Yeah man just send what you wanna send and we will all roll with it.

[Daphaknee]

yeah dude just send stuff and if soemone likes it they'll reply to your email with a thanks or reply or whatever

Check your spam folder. For some reason, gmail keeps putting numberic stuff in there.

[psiga]

Ugh. Yeah, I kinda wondered what would happen if people flagged numberic as spam.

[IIOIOOIOO]

Just mark anything from the list as "not spam" and enjoy!

[Corinth]

I looked into this a couple of days ago, but there's nothing we can do about it. Gmail's filters and labels won't let you at your mail before Google applies its spam filtering, so you can't specify to allow things with certain subjects. Just gonna have to NOT SPAM things. You should only have to do this a maximum of once per person on the list, though (once allowed, always whitelisted, I hope).

[rabite gets whacked!]

The funny thing is when it marks my own posts as spam. Twice.

Also, when browsing my spam folder, google's little ad devices helpfully offer spam recipes. Spam pastries, spam quiche, spicy spam kebabs!

Hey people posting in the JamesE electro thread: please join this list okay?

Hey people I just sent some stuff because no one else is. I actually kind of want to hear some famous stuff I just haven't ever looked into. Tool, NIN, The Who, Rolling Stones, etc. I just have no clue where to start with ultra famous bands or bands with like 20 freaking albums. So please send music, whether it is famous or not.

Maybe we can send our favorite Beatles songs?

How come no one sent any Battles?

Seriously people, I know you aren't buying/finding/stealing music, so share it with us! A large majority of the CDs I have bought in the past 3 years have been because of numberic.

Someone write a big thing about Boris! or the Boredoms.

Or good obscure video game soundtracks!

daphaknee there usually isn't any feedback, at least i never saw any on the original numberic. you're just throwing stuff into the void. that's the way it works.

[Daphaknee]

i may start throwing things back into the void then

god since i have TWO FULL ALBUMS OF HUBERT KAH that i CANNOT get enough of

daphny if it makes you feel all tingly inside I dug that Kimmo Pohjonen and went and copped his albums. So Hubert Kah? I have no idea what it is- send send send!

It takes me a lot of time to do those little write ups, but I'm trying to stick with it now and again.

HEADS UP: This is down for now (has been for about three weeks), since my hosting company switched systems. I'll need to install Mailman myself sometime, but that will take time I don't yet have. So, Mr. Mech, your latest stuff didn't reach everybody. Sorry, I'll try to get on it this weekend.

[Mr. Mechanical]

S'ok bro, I'm in no rush. I've still got saved copies of those mails, so it'll be no trouble to resend them when you get around to setting this thing back up.
