first attempt at hip hop, much bashing needed,

[ryanoliver]

Well...it's undeniable genius. I've never heard anything like it. I'm not sure I'd call it hip hop though... atleast not American hip hop. If someone told me this was trip hop I'd believe them. I can't imagine anyone dancing to this, tonight I'm going to get really fuckin stoned and listen to this again.

Hi Ryanoliver,

thanks for the listen and the feedback, much appreciated
spent quite a long time on this one adding stuff then taking it away. Decided to stick it up here to get some fresh ears. Voice too penetrating? Too sparsley orchestrated? too long? not enough sound fx. Leave the other voice in?

BTW came accross a thread bout christianity/religion that you had a few posts in. Wondered whether you had read any of Philip K Dick's later stuff eg 'The Transmigration of Timothy Archer' ? seems to follow your lines of thinking.
from what I remember, the main character 'discovers' JC's teachings actually came from a bunch of halluciongenic mushroom eating, pre christian hippies.
If you havn't I'd recommend him.

cheers

paul

Yeah this is extremely different then anything else i've heard. And about it being rap, since it doesn't rhyme, I don't think it could be classified that way-Maybe Trance/New Age, But It is really interesting never the less dude. Not much to change here-It's apart from everything else and really quite powerful that ending.

I checked it out on Wikipedia, lots of sex, drugs and suicide. I like it.

Im actually really digging the beat, the toms in there hit hard, lower or take out the spacey effects and it could be a good hard beat if the right vocals were combined with it. Also like myself i can never find that happy medium between the instrumental and the vocals but the instrumental was overpowering your vocals.
