Votes for Inspiration

Well, where do I go to find inspiration?

The answer is mostly to CSDB (or Youtube).

So, lets see... Magnar Harestad

To be honest, how should I get inspired by only 15 people voted on my music skills? I mean, does not any else care about my music released in demos as Wonderland XI, We Are New, Lash, Sidelined etc?

If only 15 people has taken the time to vote, then why should I put efforts in composing new sid tracks for new demos? Is it really worth it?

I would rather have a 1000's giving me a score of 1, than 15x give me a average score of around 8. At least in the first example, I would know I sucked at composing. :)

Cheers

Quoting Magnar
It is about feedback. If none, then inspiration to continue making SIDs will die. Time would be better of doing something else.

This is plain bullshit.

Whether there is feedback or not, making SIDs should always be for making SIDs. I do it just for the love of doing it on SID, not to please somebody else or to receive feedback.

Sure, it is beautiful if somebody likes it and then makes a favour to give some feedback. But even if it would not be there, I would do SIDs as long as I live.

@Groepaz: ..sort of brave of you to share this with us.. If i should say something positive, the extreme compression ration gives it all a certain touch.. :).

Now.. should i also dump my old demo tapes from my trash-metal band here!? I see a flood coming, and it actually feels quite out of topic of this whole site.

In the punk style context, all the tracks have their charm I think :)

Not for the masses for sure but you know what? I find more life and natural anger in raw stuff than overproduced barbie crap. Also it doesn't mean that I'm a fun of the stlye. I used to be, because of the rawness, 20 or so years ago.

Good thought but you're right, it may not fit the content of this site. But an another thread, maybe?

All my sincere condolences go for the feelings of Magnar because of the stoopid pointless voting thing as I know it may seriously hurt some folks and some downvoting MFs enjoy it too much perhaps, but listening these old demos is the only thing that has some meaning in this thread really :)

Not to mention Oswald's girly pic. I'm still missing a funny cat.
