What makes you so (damn) special?

Weeeeeeeell, I see you brought a little picture along of long lost Dana Carvey. No doubt making a deal with satan right now to whore it up with Molly Ringwald on the Surreal Life 4. Yes, yes - I can see it so crystal clear now. Dana, Satan. Satan, Dana...
Isn't that special.

I can relate to that..I try to shut down conscious levels of thought as much as possible while I compose/sequence..I already know what "I" sound like; I like to try & tap that collective unconsciousness that supposedly lies beneath us all.dystonia_ek wrote:I'm not trying to put myself into the sounds, but to take my 'self' out of the equation to the greatest degree possible.

Dang, Bones, defensive much?BONES wrote:Nothing. Why should there be? We make music that we both really love, music that people seemed to have stopped making a while ago. So I suppose you could say we're special because we're doing something everyone else got over last century. So what!?!CskaTorpedo wrote:What makes your music stand out

Not at all, I'm loving it. I got over trying to be different or unique or special or any of that shit eons ago. It doesn't matter unless the thing you are into is something that doesn't currently exist and what's the likelihood of that? The point I was trying to make is that its much more rewarding to do the thing you love than to strive to be different/special/unique, or to try to keep up, for its own sake. Just look at all the sad prog-rockers around here for confirmation. [They seem happy enough, don't they?]

Nothing specific. I dont really listen to that much purely electronic music, so I have no direct comparitive standards for what I'm personally trying to do. Nor do I particularly want any. The only real point of contact I have is with written descriptions; books on the origins of electronic music, et.c.
And on any given thing Im working on, the existing sound/form is what drives the next iteration of adding/subtracting sound and form. The process is a feedback mechanism for itself; if it works it stays, if it doesnt work it gets changed until it does. The definition of 'it works' has no direct parallel in any of the music I typically listen to though.

... it depends whether what you love is making new, interesting things I guess. But you're right - do whatever the f**k it is that makes you happy - each to his/her???
