    And I wanted to get a quick mix together of the Audiosex song I started last year when I was made resi, but it looks like I may still be getting banned, so there was only time for these...:(
    To all my haters: please shit on me and tell me how bad these tracks are, before I am banned!

    Thank you. Playing and writing is me, but the mix was both me and my partner.
    I learnt a lot from him in those years.
    The only reason to work with him! :winker:
    Well, I wish there was time for me to put up current stuff but I don't think there is now...:(

    Digging Bad Behavior,
    nice harmonies on the Keys, and also very nice Mix,
    modern/techie and audiophile but very on the spot, not overdone.. :wink:

    Is the Bass on Can't Stop real or sampled?
    I can definitively hear some Prince.. Chick Corea!?
    and even Reggae/Dub vibes with those delayed "clangs".. interesting :yes:

    So, it actually happened, Smoove Grooves was really banned here and would like you people to know that is the reason he isn't responding. You can contact him at the sister site if you want to ask him anything. Thanks.

    I think they're really cool in the style you have done them in. :)

    As for hate, that's a big word, hate is bigger than some people realise in my opinion. To me, it involves being consumed by evil thoughts, anger, distaste, ignorance, fear, dislike, revenge and almost anything that is a bane for any decent person. I cannot see how anyone can truly hate someone they have never spent any in-person time with?
     
  10. Standard structure for music of that time. Nothing special really. I'm saying it's good. But that all.
    It's nearly 20 years old. I hope you've improved.

    Banned but not forgotten.

    He'll be back with a new name, game and persona.

    I hope you improved?? what ? That was incredible, do you listen to yourself? one thing: how dare you to judge other people's music in that manner??

    Yeah, how dare anyone judge muzak that someone has asked everyone to judge! XD Kinda warmed to the fact that 18-year-old tracks were labelled "work in progress" =) So true of everything!
    I only listened to the last track, but I didn't like the singing much, the rest was fine! Groove JB Smoovely..

    This sounds so good, especially for such a relatively old recording. Reminds me a little bit of Cafe del Mar Chillhouse style.
    And I hope you can sort out the problems and come back soon, you'd be sorely missed if that ban was final, which I hope it isn't.

    i know nothing about why you are or were banned. i don't see anything about you being banned under your avatar, but i guess that doesn't mean anything.

    as for the tunes you posted, they're not my favorite genre, but i really did enjoy "can't stop" and "bad behaviour" so i'm definitely not going to trash you.

    Beautiful music. I loved all 3 songs, particularly the first one, with its delicious bass. Congratulations!
