Im Not A Machine - CitizenMofo

Name: Im Not a Machine
Duration: 175 s
Channel: CitizenMofo
Description: When a machine denies that it's a machine, perhaps that's a form of enlightenment. Or the beginning of a transformation, Pinocchio-like. This track explores this thought with a series of cinematically interlocking grooves. Or something like that. I really, really appreciate people's comments, so please do; if you have criticisms, please share - that's how we learn and improve.

kind of a multi-genre trip here CitizenMofo...I really like the cinematic genre as it gives you all kinds of license to take the music wherever the spirit moves you....you made good use of it here and you did a nice job of holding it all together with the breats & transitions....good on ya.....Ed

CitizenMofo replied 8th Jul 2013 - 13 years ago

Yeah, I never know what genre to put my stuff in. I don't think in genres, just in sounds that I like. Which is probably why I'll never be rich and famous, oh well. I wanted a head-bopping body-mover that reached a sort of beatific climax. Whether I achieved that or not, it's good to hear that it resonates with someone. Thanks for the listen and comment, Tumbleweed, I appreciate it.

Thanks, subzone. Yeah I had fun with this piece, especially since it was a 2nd draft and the 1st draft was a wreck and a horror. Sometimes things fall into place with a little bigger push. Your comment made my day!

i love the way you used the clips of spoken word and the dialect is very potent and i like how it distorts my audio/video mental stream when its rendered by memory

CitizenMofo replied 7th Jul 2013 - 13 years ago

Thanks, SoulMaaaan, for your listen and comment. Yes! Distorting the audio/video mental stream through music, that's what it's all about. I don't like the cliches and triteness and shallowness that we're constantly bombarded, brainwashed, and dumbed-down with by popular culture. A big reason why America is in such dire straits, with criminals running our banking system and the 99% stunned senseless by the obvious collusion of government in financial crimes against the people. So we need some new sounds! Some fresh thinking! Some real truth! Some distorting of the audio/video mental stream! OK, climbing down off my soapbox now... Thanks!

Dont Seize out it's going to be a lot of visual stimulation mon ami!

If you like doing this kind of stuff you might enjoy this which is a video and original arrangement of a track I did from loops that came in magix and downloaded royalty free content as well - mashed up to look at best like space travel through a celestial dance rave techno show/venue/event

i love american DJ products and special thanks to them!

Hi again, SoulMaaaan, I dig your music video, both the music and the video - you're working with some stunning images there and you're beyond me in video capability. I use Windows Live Movie Maker and just do basic mash-up things using video bits freshly borrowed from youtube or images from my rather large stash from when I used to make weird T-shirts. I love it, it's a blast, and adds a cool dimension to the music. Check out some of my vids on youtube if you're of a mind - I've got 7 there, 3 political ones and 4 just my weird music, under CitizenMofo. Rock on.

Very nice, you are exploring Laurie Anderson territory with this piece.

CitizenMofo replied 7th Jul 2013 - 13 years ago

Thanks for the listen and comment, crucethus. I wasn't familiar with Laurie Anderson and so watched her video "O Superman" on youtube. Yes, strange, wonderful stuff, and I can see a definite lining-up of sensibilities there. Thanks for turning me on to this and helping me learn something.

Electronic gothic track.
When I heard this acapella by ALAA EZZEDDINE I was really impressed. Ok, did lots of tweaking to make it sound properly and fit in the track. Actually his lyrics described what I have had gone through...
Enjoy and take care :) :) :)
