Whys everything on here so technical

[DJ Crackle]

this must be the only genre where being experimental means you use three notes on your midrange bass line instead of two.

friendly fix.

ROFLLLLL

I have to agree with Abz about it not seeming technical enough around here... Really, I would do backflips to find some truely technical conversations going on on this forum, its so hard to come here and have to sort through all the stupid, philosophical, circular discussion that doesnt help anyone to find a bit of production conversation... And its not even the fact of the philosophical questions, but that its the SAME philosophical questions EVERY day from the SAME people. "What inspires you" "What motivates you too keep producing" is all anyone seems to talk about here, they grow to 20 pages of replies, and then the same people remake the thread.

Cases in point... same people... same thread.

Its a production forum, not an inspiration forum.

The reason why those threads are so similar is cause if anything got to envolved the forum would implode on itself, I was easing people into it.

I come from a world where everyone is open about the reasons why they do what they do, what it means to them and such and such, you don't ask an painter to explain how they did each and every one of their brush strokes and what they did to mix their colours. Why is it that music is the only art where people are obsessed with how to do things!? Its absolutely boring.


Like I said anyways.


I'm done with posting, modding only now.

Just wanna say wasnt havin a dig at you personally man, I coulda done that with ALOT of people around here (Im looking at you deadly.jaydot) ... I was just trying to say I wanted more technical talk... Think about it, could you find that many threads on proper use of chorus with the search?

N dont stop posting, the deep-dubstep side needs every supporter we have thank you.

answer to ops question: because virgin nerd life failures get on here and attempt to satisfy the void in their life that is left by having no friends and not knowing what a vagina feels like. they rip on forum noobs and this makes them feel somewhat cool and like much less of a complete failure at life, which is truely what they are. this action continues because of human nature and therefore the forum is turned to shit by genetically inferior nerds with no lives or human friends who use this forum as an open diary to their fail lives for everyone to see.. its very true and you guys all know it. these nerds will force their preference of music on you. (usually what they deam underground non mainstream snorestep faggotry.) they will post alpacas in threads of newcombers asking for guidance. they know no shame. they are relentless in their pursuit of being the ultimate fail nerd alive. they will post useless bullshit in a thread where you are genuinelly asking for help. they know no shame. they are animals.i have long studied this rare breed of 100% complete inferiority disguised as a human baskets of waste, and has helped me understand their species. god help their kind.

truly, dream, newcomers, genuinely
what your whole diatribe has to do about why it's mainly tech talk (it really isn't) here is beyond me...
take a breather, step away from the keyboard, and go for a walk or something

I just had this mental image of a police officer cuffing you in front of a crashed-up, smoking car with a kid underneath the front tire and you saying "In all fairness Officer, I was drunk!"

I think what Ledge was getting at mate is the fact that EVERY topic on this board seems to relate to technical discussions of varying degrees. Where as there are literally none relating to the more artistic side of production.

The technical topics are not boring in themselves but when they are the sole source of discussion it does get a little bit dull.

Without meaning to sound wanky, we are artists and our art is comprised of more elements than endless discussions about VST's and brickwall limiting.

That's because art, like spirituality - is entirely subjective (apart from techniques used), and so discussions on such things is pointless.

"I like datsik."

"omg newb."

Case in point.

I have to completely disagree with you on that. Not all discussion has to come down to your given example, subjective discussion is what gives people new perspectives and helps develop there own ways of doing things. People don't just settle on there own way of doing things purely on there own, it's through an internal discussion about what they experience in life, and doing that sort of thing on a forum just helps to that and gives people a chance to experience different views points that they may never have elsewhere.

Gawd blimey! Someone understands!

You can get all "technical" and still have artistic expression. The two aren't mutually exclusive, the best music/art excels at both imo. With the technical side of thing their is set ways of doing things, so these are easy to talk about (how do i make a wobble? ect...) With the artistic side of thing their is no wronge, or right just what you want to express as a asrist, it's not as easy to discuss, and can not be teached.

I think everyone should have their own vision of what they want to create, and should want to know the skills needed to express them at their full potential. Most people come here to learn about production techniques, so they can present their music the best they can. Their are artist at extreme ends of technical/artistic spectrum, and suck, but their are a few who break this rule.

I think their are some threads on here that are not technical at all, and I like them they have a place here, but I would like to see more technial threads (not in volume, just more deeper). I don't learn much on here, anymore their is the odd golden nuget every know and a again, but that is it.
