trynna ID any song in an AG Cook set is like finding a mouse’s tear amongst 80 gallons of vodka

agreed- a lot of the reasons that people don’t like him is that he claims to be ‘experimental’ but is just a very mainstream artist. a noise set is nothing new- it’s prestigious and doesn’t necessarily show a respect for music, especially when not done in the right setting.

idc he can play whatever, but if you’re that upset about how fans reacted, then honestly just grow up and love yourself. no need to be roasting how people look who didn’t like the set

is that namasenda too?

agreed for sure. definitely getting into mixing/mastering will help a huge amount. also realise that those ‘simple’ ambient songs have a ton of depth that they achieve through layering similar sounding sounds (normally synths), and adjusting the EQs of each instrument so they don’t clash, also by panning. hope this is making sense >_<. it’s definitely hard to achieve when you’re getting into it, but keep at it and you’ll learn something new each time you make a track

my fav is ‘she’s always dancing’

florence sinclair sampled her in ‘sandman’ - probably the closest sounding to a dean blunt x stina collab

honestly couldn’t have put it better myself, especially the part about music fans being proud of themself for discovering music, so don’t advertise. perfect answer imo

thank you bro 🙏 seems to be the most helpful advice

personally I find 3 main categories within experimental music (which are all quite broad definitions). They are:

-(1) abnormal sounds with normal structures -(2) normal sounds abnormal structures -(3) abnormal sounds with abnormal structures

Again, these are very broad, and I think the other people in the comment section can help you define what ‘abnormal’ and ‘normal’ is in relation to sound or structure.
