You Like Listening To Music Right?

That is to say, music! A whole 12 songs made by yours truly.

Anyway, it's just me, my MIDI keyboard, and various created synthesizers in Reason... I have computerized orchestra glittering over some tracks, and they're not as pretty as if I'd gotten actual violinists and shit to play on 'em, but you know. Do what you can with what you got. There's a lot of 8bit influence, some electro, some ambient, and orchestral, all muddled up into one big ball of fun. It's my first real "themed" album.... and I'd like feedback! Whether it's on the art, the music, or my personality, snarky comments, criticism, and enraged rantings are welcome.

All I ask is that you give it a listen.

Uhm. So. The floor is yours.

Jimor:
Listening... bbiab with reaction...

Ha, very cool, thanks for the trip back to the 80s. And I really mean that. :-)

The 8-bit influences stuff could easily have been ambience music for any of those old games, and was quite catchy.

The rest worked, too. Enough layers to pick up new elements if I concentrated, but grooving along nicely if I was busy with other stuff (I've been playing poker with it in the background).

Not a whole lot to say beyond that. Good work, and definitely post more when you have it.

JD:
Downloadin' now

Edit: This is pretty sweet so far. I'm on the 3rd song.

Daft pun:
I liked it quite a bit (despite my preference for the swoopy kind of synths). Well done.

Thanks for the kind words! Glad some people like it at least.

Didn't expect the 80s comment (not that it's a bad thing, I rather appreciate it), but upon further listening I kind of see what you're getting at.

Don't know when I'll have more though... This album's basically been *in progress* since January. I'm really wary about sharing demos and stuff, I like everything to be polished and shiny before anyone sees / hears it.

There's always my old EP, if you're into a straight-up 8bit venture... finished this one in May.
