What to do...?

So, i've finished my latest track and everything is done (except a final bounce... it's sitting nice and fresh in logic still) BUT i'm not sure if it would be worth putting up on this site. This is because it probably won't resonate well amongst the of the site, as it is possible the most difficult to dance to track i have made so far (you heard "avoidance of confilct" or the intro for "east-south-east".... them's nothin' on this one. At all). This is mostly because of one thing: everything about it fits in with the 'rules' dance music — nice synths, big drums, lotsa electronic-ey stuff; except it's isn't in 4/4 time. Not that it doesn't use a 4x4 drum pattern, but it is actually in 7/8 (for those who don't know, 7 eighth-notes (or half beats in 4/4 time) to the bar, unlike the 4 quarter beats in regular music). Catching my drift yet?

SO... i'm trying to work out if it would be worth posting it up on the site, just to get general feedback on it (nice flow, get mixdown, etc) even though i would willingly bet $20 that there would be no more than 3 people on the ENTIRE SITE who wouldn't comment "umm... i don't like it. It's not my style :/ *cough*it's shit". Moreover, it isn't really dance music, and is on par with the hybrid genre of 'ILM', "Intelligent" (i hate that term for music, but at least that'll get the people knowing what i'm talking about) Listening Music (you can't dance to it, so it's just for listening Sticking out tongue).

If you do think it would be worthwhile posting up (just for the feedback and whatnot), or have some sort of opinion,
Tell me whatcha think on this topic.

Peace,

CSM, you should definitely

CSM, you should definitely post it.

I think your presumption that most of the listeners on this site are too narrow to appreciate music outside of the club genre is fair, but there are those of us who can. I'd like to hear what you've come up with, and I know for a fact that some of the other more discerning members of Undiscovered (i.e. QTek, J-C, Ryan, Rhys, McB, Black Sheep, Krabe, Baax, Skotty if he's still around?) will too...

And you have nothing to lose!

Happy New Year mate. Smiling
