well, as artists (sound engineers, musicians, etc.), our work will ALWAYS be subject to criticism, whether or not they're solicited. it was posted at myspace, a VERY PUBLIC website. it will be criticized, no matter what. heck, it might even be downloaded (you think? would anybody be interested in reworking it?
) and some magic might be worked through it with acid, garage band, ableton live, or whatever else.
the post that was deleted was basically questioning the credibility of everybody who commented. now who in his/her right mind would question mr. pedero's comments? i know i wouldn't. he didn't mention sir mike's name, but obviously he thought so highly of himself and his song (not necessarily a bad thing) that he refused to "hear" our opinions.
Kitc, allow me to quote from the deleted post.
"...I'm beginning to doubt... maybe SOME people here are just POSERS and LIMITED to a certain genre... maybe computer addicts and not TRUE musicians, para lang may masabi... Nakasama na ba namin kayo sa Music Scene o andyan lang kayo sa bahay nyo at tinatago ang "KNOWLEDGE(?)" nyo sa music? GO OUT AND PERFORM WITH US!!! para maranasan nyo kung paano "dagain" sa stage at matikman ang REAL ESSENCE OF MUSIC AND RECORDING, hindi puro theory..."
"...--YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO POINT A FINGER UNLESS YOU'RE WORTHY ENOUGH..."
(*) obviouly, mr. musician isn't limited to a certain genre (that HIS opinion of course), and is practically inviting everybody to jam with their band.
(**) also, apparently, he doesn't think anybody of us is WORTHY ENOUGH. well, mr. musician, that's your opinion... it's very different from mine, but i won't crucify you for it.
(***) oh, i almost forgot, NOBODY was doing any finger-pointing.
