Feedback on a project needed (hip hop). July 15, 2009 at 12:45 AM UTC #

Hope its alright if I post this. For those who want to peep this, read below:

Around the time I was working on my solo album and my group project ARDAPLUS (Ardamus and Doube Plus), I started a project with my engineer, The Metaphysical. Its a 10-track project called "A Day In The Life Of Modern Day Living". Its basically a rundown of someone's day from when they wake up from a nightmare til they go to sleep and crash at someone else's place from being too drunk to get home. Don't take the album seriously, all in fun with some deep meanings (I guess).

Ardamus = words, vocals
The Metaphysical = beats, music
Lady Maroo and Cosmo of Math Panda, Emilie Brogrand, Mic Finite, and Observa = additional vocals

Here's the whole thing to preview:
http://www.imeem.com/ardamus/playlist/sRrh1-NV/a-day-in-the-life-of-modern-day-living-music-playlist

The whole thing (CDs will be pressed in a month, if you want copies. $10) for download here in .zip file form:

Let me know what you think. Peace.

p.s. - Here's my solo album - "When Nothing Goes Right", if you'd liek to hear more of my stuff.

I think the board shouldn't tolerate such spam. I also think anything that only costs $10 must be a pile… that which we acquire too easily we esteem to lightly.

seriously tho, i fully support Ardamus in this endeavor. he's polite and humble, and is up-front about what the deal is… people who aren't happy should simply move on. no deceit here.

i hope this project work out well for you. unfortunately my appreciation of hip hop is nearly non-existent so my feedback won't be very useful.

The CD is 10 bucks for everyone else, but for you $75. There, you're conscience is eased. Pony up.

Hey, I understand what I'm saying, but I prefer a certain GODASHEEUS-esque ridiculous hyperbole from my "please listen to us" advertisements!

Um, so saying something that costs $75-100 in your mind (mind you, the three styles in the summer 2009 catalog are $70, $70, and $85) cost, well, no shit, $75 implies they're second-hand or fake… how??

Hey, Julian, I wasn't trying to spam the boards. If I was, trust me…..MORE THREADS OF MY MUSIC WOULD BE IN HERE. Either listen to my music and provide feedback or don't comment in this thread at all again.

And because of your comment and lack of respect for what I was presenting, my thread now has a back and forth argument between you and other people on the boards. And I was hoping to see some feedback. Nothing more. Nothing less. I am local DC Hip Hop artist just promoting a new project in a humble manner. And I have posted on this board before. Not much but I try to stay up and involved on here when I can. You have 5000 plus posts so pretty much you stay on here, correct? I understand you'd think someone with about 10 or 20 posts or so would be on that tip to spam the boards. But, I'm not. Just a simple request for some hard work. That is all……

walkonby and sweetcell, i appreciate your comments. thank you.

And watch your tongue about GODISHEUS. The frontman of that band grinds on the music like no other. Tell me something, do you make music yourself? Or just sit on the sidelines play the "critic" role?

And I'm gonna tell you again. Listen to my music or don't. You had a choice when you clicked on this thread to make your little sarcastic snide remarks. So I suggest you make another decision to not further discuss your thoughts in my thread if you have a problem with it. You don't know me. I know….its a message board and its all in fun to clown like this, right? Well, have fun listening to my music or leave.

uh, or what? you're going to stalk him online? you'll make fun of his candlesticks? you'll flood his PM box? :) just trying to help here: julian is an online persona, he's a character, you can't take anything he says seriously. he's (one of our) borats or brunos. when he gets into a shtick, it's not about the person or thing he's talking about - it's about acting out the part. it's not you, it's him, so taking anything he says too seriously is missing the point.

welcome to 930.com/forums!

seriously, this kinda shit is going to happen. this ain't your sandbox, so you can't call the rules. breath in, exhale, and let it go…

i'm sure he's a kick-ass musician, but he's also big on self-hype. and again, jules was playing a part: godsisheus crashed on this board with ego a-blazin', hyping his shit like it was bigger than jesus. no one thinks that his approach is better than yours… thus jules is being facetious, obviously your approach is more appreciated.

as someone who has a life outside this board, you might not realize that this isn't a choice for julian.
