Who's joking? Not only do I give constructive(ish) criticism, I also do careers guidance.

Sure trolley collectors earn more money than most producers anyhow.

"has youre music career not taken off?

still struggling to pay for that Virus?

are your cupboards bare cos you decided on Krk's rather than Fostex monitors?

Then call Shonky, not only does he provide feedback for tunes, he can also get you a high flying job at your local tesco's"

Nominal charge natch - what is 10% of minimum wage these days?

Might also start doing counsellling as well as a nice little sideline, might see if I can buy me a degree from Alabama uni or something.

"I think what your music tells me is that there are some unresolved issues from your childhood - shall I start the meter now?"

get something close to a finished track before submission

i think i've been guilty of not doing this, sorry.

also with regards to providing decent feedback as (i think) i said in one of my 'what do you think of this' posts, i'd post advice or criticism to justify my own requests for the same except i really haven't a fucking clue about production techniques and could only offer things like 'i like it'. ;[

BUT...

...seeing as it does take time to download the file, listen to it, post feedback, etc, would it be possible to get tracks to as near to completion as possible, not just a beat and a bassline pretty much looping for two minutes. I'm not expecting everyone to be amazing first off, but beat + bassline doesn't = tune - have a bit more faith in your abilities and get something close to a finished track before submission. Not knocking anyone starting up, but as I've said before, we're not making tunes by committee.

What does our panel think?

P.S. This did spring up from a post of Fully's, but in all fairness, he's posted up some good tunes in the past and I liked his clip, so this isn't aimed at him.

SEEN!

Not to worry man, you're stuff was pretty well developed compared to what I'm talking about, and were pretty well received too as I remember.
