60 tracks?! That's amazing. I've been doing the music and internet thing for a long time and never seen such a response.
Congrats on the marketing and organization!

Re:EU Album: MACHINE 14 Years, 2 Months ago
this is the first forum song submission if ever done... for two reasons... one: tIB drew it to my attention over from the muff wiggler forum (thanks tIb)... and two: elektron machines being one of the most creative tools i've used, i'm really looking forward to what people have done! there are some quality machinedrum vids on youtube that i repeat watch, so i hope those fellas have submitted something.

looking forward to hearing a final product.

If it was me I would wipe everything on my ipod, copy the 60 tracks and start an endlessly looping playlist.

Maybe I would want to listen every track thousands of times, while I'm drawing, while I'm on the bus, while I'm cooking or while I'm relaxing, letting the music go again and again.

When I could remember each track, bit by bit, waiting for that melody to come, for that bridge to start, well that's the moment I can actually make a voting.

Of course a decent set of speakers are very important to catch every subtle frequency or the very low bass frequencies, but getting used to the tracks feels the most important goal to me.

Don't you think?


I do think! and that is the plan, at least for me -- listening in the living room through the ipod/receiver combo, in the studio on the monitors for the stress test, and on the ipod on the metro ride and walk to work.

60 submission IS a lot, but looking at the names in the other thread, it's old and new people, so it should be interesting!

That's awesome! The quality of this compilation is going to be superb.
I think future compilations are very realistic, with this kind of response.

That's an amazing level of participation for a web based project ime. Most of them fizzle out after the hey that's a really cool idea phase. Nice work you guys!

HEy! looks like we have more than 60 tracks. it's actually closer to 70 and the selection committee has download links!

it'll be a tough call for sure as there are many interesting tracks.

i was rocking so hard to some of these tracks on the way to work my head fell offf.

Ok. So where do I find the information about the tracks?

Why did people make what they'v made. The gear used. And so on...

Otherwise im just voting on stuff that i like and think is well produced.

^ all the info on concept and everything else is in the first post in this thread.

The concept doc is here: http://elektron-users.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_download&gid=533&Itemid=30

EDIT: May have misread that Makko... track info should be editted into the files in the properties if people did that. One thing we realised about this is that we should have had an upload form so we were able to get that down... hindsight is a wonderful thing.
