The way you low me

is the way I low you.

A picture of a big lock I have to get cut

This lock became way too ironic. I really should have it properly cut...

 

(yes, indeed, it appears I could have an other minimal music ep project running aside my already teased “what you hear is what you deserve”)

I’m a loner, Dottie…

"I'm a loner, Dottie, A rebel"

That’s sometimes how I feel when I consider all my years making music. I met a lot of guys but always focused on my stuff mostly. I’m such of an egocentric, most probably.

The main fun of making music back a decade ago was to join groups and crewed, collectives, thinking you’re not alone but now that most of them died it’s so weird not to be a part of something active again. Everytime I consider focusing on something else, like a new handle for releasing some music from some other cool hip scenes, I feel dishonest and kind of opportunist, which make me feel pretty bad about myself so I go back to some kaneel stuff.

But now where is it? Crews, collectives, lolnetlabelslol… are all segmented genres by genres, they don’t mix up with other genres and just try to gather before documentaries appear… because we all know documentaries start the beginning of the death of movements. Or is it just growing older eh? 2012 already, ring, time to take your pills! Inpuj could probably saves us all from boredom.

I wonder where I’ll go, everyday I do, really… because the more I keep on working on kaneel stuff, the more I feel it’s out of the loop, out of the discussion, out of this world and it has no real place to be.
But it’s kind of harder than myself (insert “that’s what she said” joke here)

Arp. Simple beats with cool hats. That’s where I’m going for sure. Let’s make some cool music for some years. Have to upload something new tonight, hope I will!

And well, I have to make something to celebrate a new job that is coming in two weeks and a new apartment in three weeks… the beginning of bourgeoisy, really.

ps: and no julez, I don’t dream of stardom, stop that, it’s far more complicated ;)

What you hear is what you deserve #2

Been working on this WIP. I think you get the idea, buildbuildbuildbuild (julez gotta love that eheh) then break, die, cry alone. Hence, the emo touch. Still working on this setup, using the kawai k1m for amazing grainy-like detuned pads.
Comment and RT ;)

What you hear is what you deserve

Yes. It sounds like an enigmatic EP project name, right?

Won’t say more, just that I uploaded a WIP on soundcloud.

ps: don’t wait for the drop, the only drop you’ll hear is the drop of your valium falling down right into a glass of vodka.

The Baguetter has been updated to 2.8

Yes, it’s official, your favourist baguettist tool has finally seen the light. It’s been planned in the comic baguettery for weeks but got real busy&lazy (yo, don’t call me a slug if you don’t want me to…. herm… yo, yo)
Now it’s done, and according to some renoisers, it’s not buggy.

ITS ALIVE!... AGAIN.

Grab it on its official page if you didn’t install the tool updater (but I guess you did, right?)

Its a fine mess we have here…

Ah, lonely nights ;)

About the comfort zone.

I have the horrible feeling I’m waving hands in the dark, punching invisible walls.

I make some music, try to have it well done, sometimes it works, I get people’s reaction, sometimes it does not but weirdly, I don’t really take in account feedbacks… well, there are feedbacks only when it’s good, pretty weird uh?

Lately, I’ve been pretty sad to notice a certain new label didn’t bother putting my remix of one of their bands on their blogs, I wasn’t begging for anything but that could have been “one thing to do” but hey, I’m a nobody right ?

So here, you already listened to it, you’re going to relisten to it:

So yes, it made me sad a bit but you know, every new tracks is about hours spent doing something cool and fun so I’m more of a winner everytime I get something done.

Also, I didn’t see much people sharing my liveset, but it’s ok… because I had a lot of fun playing it and it’s been a nice experience after all!

Indeed, you always have to put efforts in bunch of things in order to see one growing worth of the effort. And every mistakes definitely gives you more opportunity to requestion yourself in order to leave the comfort zone.

Liveset: done

20120306 UPDATE : Still no videos. Some more pictures.

It’s indeed true the liveset happened and yes indeed, it happened quite well. I actually intended to post a blog when I would have gathered all videos from the events but it seems the decrunching is taking a lot of more time than planned so well, posting this now and will see later for some updates ;)

Liveset’s coming!

Best piece of news of the year and we’re only in february: I’m preparing a liveset.

Well, as you know, some people do livesets, some try to mashup their tracks together, some draw ducks on mspaint and others forget to plug their midi gears.
Right, I’ll try to stick in the middle of that big mess and open for the “demo in paris third edition” gigs. Read more

Two Left Ears – 6 Pack Of Dolls (the princess is in another rmx)

A remix I did for Two Left Ears.

Had to go with this one, the zelda theme you know. Not that I knew I would turn it into a chillwave anthem, I just felt it would be some kind of challenge I would have to accept.

Plus, they are friends, good friends, it’s always better this way.

Support them!

ps: book them, the liveact includes live veejaying, double bass, fingersnaps and I even heard there are some patterns of kaneel displayed on the screen (a little bird told me so) !
