i'd like to get my production standard up a few notches - - i've recently got VST and a 'proper' computer - - - and listening to Jasper's Skuzzbag01 has quite inspired me to get cracking with those plug-ins - - (even at lo-fi you can hear the detail in that track Jasper - fucking wicked)
- the "roily swirlies" were actually sampled off an old DX-11 and then put through some old guitar pedal effects to scrunge them up before sampling
and yes milan - i'm no longer afraid of reverb in the mix - in fact i'm really getting into splashing it around everywhere!
cheers

btw - i pressed up turboherb onto 12" last month and got a distribution deal for it last week - so hopefully it'll be in the shops in a couple of weeks - wooohoo!

- - save up the cash (ouch...)
- - record and master the track onto a lovely 14" platter
- - get 5-10 test pressings of the track
- - cold call distributors. send out the test pressings to them with accompanying blag letters. follow up with phone calls and emails the very next week and keep hassling till one of them says yes.
- - meanwhile press up 500-1000 copies of the track and cross your fingers that by the time they have been pressed you've got a deal
- - bingo!
its worked 4 out of 4 times so far - and it definately gets easier with more releases under your belt - - (your blag letters contain more truth and less bullshit)
- - we also got a track signed by TummyTouch on the strength of a mono demo CD they got their hands on - - - - - i would love to get more tracks signed to other labels - and pressing things up ourselves has helped convince people in "the business" that we're serious - - -
the hardest bit though was saving up the initial money - definately
anyone can do it though
cheers

Btw - I'm flattered by the comments but I aint really programmed any detail into that track, maybe your hearing something that my programmed ears are missing.. hmmm.
Oh and your production is pretty damn good I reckon, mine is allways a case of hit/miss - most of that track was done on headphones.. bad I know.
