New to the forum

Post by mlissae »

Hi

Im new to the forum although I've been lurking here for some years, ever since I borrowed a SP 404 from a friend.
Very positive site and great music!
Some tapes i've downloaded and bought through this site have been on heavy rotation!

It is also kinda funny to see a name or two on here that have bought followers and likes from a website I used to work for. LOL. My brother in law has such a company, I worked for him for a while. Easy sidejob for a student. but I just couldnt do it anymore, it is so fake.but there is such a huge market for it right? that I dont even blaim people that started the companies.It is superfunny though to see what 'musicians' buy the packages.
Shitty competitiveness I guess.

I need to upload some music soon share some beats whynot

PEACE

as how it should be. I would never do that either. Some people are just too vain.

Ha yes I do muwahaha!lmao I found it especially weird coming from one dude cause his beats are always pretty dope.
What always struck me as peculiar is that nobody even notices and thats the power of the tool I guess. but still though/ having more likes for a simple video as a hobbyist in a day than a big label as stones throw, or an established producer as Exile etc.. should bring up some questions no? :?:


well. whatever.

Thanks for the welcome you guys.

haha, i'm lucky to get 1000 video views after 5 years. lol

But at least the people who 'liked' them really liked them...or maybe they flinched and accidentally hit like...either way, they weren't paid!

They do it in the mobile game industry. Its called "Boosting". When you launch a new title, you can pay another company to get you a ton of installs so your numbers skyrocket in the itunes store and your game hits the top of the charts. They have this thing called organic installs which is any install from an actual person. Most companies that do boosting will see, within the first week, lets say, 50 organic installs and like 3000 boosted installs. Kind of a funny choice of words. Boost! Urban dictionary might define it as theft.
Didnt know people did this for fucking facebook likes and youtube views. Fuck! Social networking has only done one thing in my opinion and thats given a forum for the most egotistical, arrogant psychopaths on the internet.

NOT TALKING ABOUT THIS FORUM IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM.
You guys are fucking awesome.

It's nice to have females amongst the ranks. However, wouldn't it be nice if a female producer wasn't so rare?

Hey, ml, start telling all your girlfriends that producing isn't a man's game. It's a PEOPLE'S GAME!

I've seen a couple of really talented women making dope shit. But as my girlfriend (she's a looker who makes comics) says, that's never the first thing noticed. First it's her boobs, THEN it's her work and it's because of the medium being dominated (well, I wouldn't say dominated personally, I would say populated) by mostly men.

Of course, this conversation would open cans of societal pressures on the roles of men and women and we shouldn't be soiling a new member's thread with that. ;)
