[minimal house]

Hey guys/gals...

Would definately like to say thanks for listening!

In re: to the "bad" sound

I will say that the tracks are more bass heavy than the originals. The bassline in "fluents haircut" is somewhat distorted and maybe could have been a little softer. The person who mastered, played the songs on very nice studio monitors so im guessing in a live setting they sound good. (im using shitty home stereo speakers) I havnt heard them on a loud system so i cant really comment.

In re: burrito rolling contest

The track "Burrito rolling contest" seems to be getting most of the attention. Definately one of my favs out of the collection. When i made it, i couldnt really tell whether or not to scratch it. A friend told me that it was one of the most original pieces of edm hes ever heard from me....so i kept it.

And id love to come rock out the netherlands someday.

has anyone read the critical writing?

Anyone agree with what "rob" is saying? I could care less if you do, im just trying to understand.

[Jesse Somfay]

I didn't even bother to read Rob's responses after a few sentences. They were clearly uneducated and not helpful. I wouldn't let them affect you.

Look - all this "rob" bullshit aside, can we not agree that the mastering is a bit hot on these? open up the waveform and check for yourself. I'm don't know much when it comes to mastering, but I can certainly hear and see that these tracks weren't mastered all that well. I stand behind Textone 100%, and these tracks are awesome, but I'm a little confused why they sound like they do...

Can anyone shed some light on this? I'm really curious. We all try to get better at what we do, and I think a nice civilized discussion might benefit a few people - me included.

Tom - you mentioned yourself that the bass was a bit heavy - any others play these out on a club PA and have any impressions? I did, and I had to trim them down quite a bit when mixing.

Ill post the original recordings as sent on the demo when i get a chance..youll notice a big difference.

The first four sound drastically altered. The last one sounds how it should.
