Dear NG. Please let us edit/delete reviews. Not only may opinions change over time, but as people may misunderstand them It would be nice to be able to clarify, publicly. Responding to the artist's comments of your review would be nice too.
Plan Slowly, Execute Quickly. Don't Think, Just Dance.

Fewer submissions, fewer reviews, fewer messages: when did NG die?

Dear Music Submitters:
Please learn to properly tag your files prior to uploading.
It took entirely too long to look up each track by number and manually tag each file for my library appropriately. Some of the tracks have since been removed, for whatever reason, and will go as unknowns. I thought it might be the system, so I downloaded one of my own tracks just to see, and my tags are still there intact: only the file name was changed (to the serial number + hyphened name on NG). Either my system is unique, or there are way too many submitters that do not bother.

Truth be told, I did not do the alternate version for: you who wish not words; I will, however, take the opportunity to present them both and demonstrate what I feel is the soullessness of the alternate version in comparison: may you enjoy them both, regardless.

To those who've not forgotten, neither have I. Mother Machine will resurface again before too long.

I thought I was going to put the ANALOGsounds down and walk away after my Mother Machine "Storyline." (Pearly Gates - In The Teeth) This has turned out to be not the case. Since the projects post Teeth do not fit the story line, I'm going to dedicate a new section on my website called "Mother Machine: The Afterparty." This section will have full quality download links as well as artwork.
Enjoy the party. Don't Think, Just Dance. Mother Machine.

I was asked not just about general influences, but singular moments in time where my views on the music I would eventually make changed and approximately when I experienced them. While it would be easy just to write a list of 'favorite songs' and call it a day, I found that actually thinking about specific songs that lead to new genre discoveries, or new musical trains of thought was more difficult. Which singular entities encapsulated the influential concepts the best? I have genuinely tried to think of tracks since 2007, but no such luck thus far. I have thought of many tracks that re-affirm what I had already known, such as 2008 - Portishead, Machine Gun, but many of those concepts that I enjoy so much I had already discovered 12 or more years prior.
So here is my list of singular moments in time where my views on the music I would eventually make changed.
1986 - Hirokazu Tanaka, Metroid [Main Theme]
1987 - Kinuyo Yamashita, Satoe Terashima, Wicked Child
1989 - Takashi Tateishi, The Mega Man 2 OST [Almost in its entirety]
1994 - Nine Inch Nails, Closer
1994 - Napalm Death, Twist the Knife (Slowly)
1995 - Massive Attack, Protection
1995 - Fear Factory, The Demanufacture Album [Almost in its entirety]
1996 - Yasunori Mitsuda, Corridors of Time
1997 - Chemical Brothers, Setting Sun
1999 - Infected Mushroom, Overload (Deedrah Remix)
2000 - Tabla Beat Science, Palmistry
2001 - Wumpscut, Koslow (First Take)
2002 - Lustmord, Cellular Blur
2004 - Technical Itch, The Hand
2005 - The Wretch, This is Terror
2007 - Patrick Jumpen - The Secret
While strangely difficult to compile, this was actually a fun trip down memory lane. Would any of you care to make a list of your own? Even you 'young'uns' whose lists may not go back quite as far :p.
