Music Review Game

    I remember on totse there were long-running 'mp3 game' threads where people would upload tracks and give short reviews - should be easier to do now that sites like youtube are so prolific.

    The gist is each person gives a quick review of the track the last person posted, then posts one of their own... and so it goes.

    Don't be faggot and post more than one song at a time.

    I'll start with this:

    Do you mean other bands they would crititue or their own stuff.

    There was a lot of talented people on totse. Coders, hackers, and musicians or into house mixing.

    People would upload great articles and information. not everything was destructive in nature. much of it was fanfare or telling stories or making comic strips of their own. That's the part I liked about totse. Mostly the dialup and mainly text info. the web version made it great from 2000-2001 because it had video or photo with pdf files and links.

    I myself was layering tracks with a MIDI recorder and 3 synths I owned. I wish I could find the fucking songs I had from the later years I mixed. I do have a few older songs I did when I was first starting out.

    Reminds me of Pretty Hate Machine era NIN. The vocals don't really do it for me but the noisy layered synths are fun.

    Interesting. It feels like if the Hotline Miami soundtrack fucked Phantogram, in a good way.

    I'm going to leave that for someone else for the time being, I feel like I'm missing a lot not understanding the lyrics

    That yodeling thing Arabs do, and apparently Pakis too, really annoys me

    I don't know if this is Paki or Indian, but the vocals is a bit off. I do like some modern Indian music .. there is a station in the southbay. I would like to sample and track it with my older Roland but this guys voice could use some improvement.

    BTW the term in Italian is Vibrato

    Most Indian singers sing it very well.

    Fair play.

    Obviously you are entitled to your opinion, but the guy is a trained singer from a dynastic musical family. His technicals are very solid in terms of Indian music theory. But I actually don't like his voice at all tbh.
