ive had your album on my desktop for a while but being into trance i didnt listen straight away.
ive listened now and im a fan, its superb. the best track imo is chief rocka in the house, or troublemaker. both have great melodies and the lyrics are really good. i think the production is really good and the beats are great (especially the snare in chief rocka in the house).
its obviously a labour of love, and its been well worth it. im gonna put it on my mp3 player and listen in my car.
Congratulations and good luck getting your record deal (i dont think you'll need luck though).
Cheers

Oh thx a lot, man! Iīm happy you like it and itīs always cool to get fans.
Well itīs very hard to get in touch with record labels.
I have sent some demos to some but didnīt get any reply and I guess some of them didnīt even listen to it as they might get hundreds of cdīs daily.
For this you need good connections I guess.
Well, I keep trying anyway and actually I do all that for fun in the first place, cause I love music.
Peace out!

That's actually more or less the rate at which you have to send your demos if you want a reply.
Keep sending, it'll eventually come...

Dude, I'm not really into rap, but these hip-hop songs of you sound really cool. They're kinda retro and sortoff remind me of the Flying Steps (they're German as well)... Ya got some good lyrics as well! |

Ey Chief
After listened a few times to the Album which is really great, i've chosen my favourite : "Meine Meinung"..
The rhymes are really dope, good flow and the production (the whole album) is great, keep it up with that stuff !!

Awefully late, but I want to mention that I like the album quite a lot. I have little relation with hiphop at all, so my comments might be somewhat irrelevant, but okay.
I love some of the melodies you've used. Intro and Troublemaker (excellent!) are fine examples of your ability to make proper songs and structures that are worth listening. Scratches are working like a bliss. I'm not always convinced of your vocals (there's this German accent and sometimes the lack of sounding convincing; furthermore some nice effects (such as on 'here comes the sod') and additional mc's (such as on 'Chiefrocka in the House (Remix)') might do good to induce variation), but I have little references.
But please, continue making stuff. It reminds me somewhat of the old Linkin Park-productions concerning how convincing it sounds. Do check Fort Minor's latest album (The rising tied), because he does a pretty similar thing as you do. |

WOW! Are u serious?
Well, The Rising Tide is my favorite Album this time.
I hear it daily at least two times!
And I gotta admit, Mike Shinoda is some kind of an example to me, cause I love his music, his attitude and the fact that he writes his lyrics and his music himself.
So his stuff inspires me a lot.
Well thx a lot thatīs a very nice compliment . |

Just to make sure: your work *reminds* me of Fort Minor, I'm not saying it's equally good. I like your combination of strings, melodies, beats, speed and vocals, but Fort Minor's productions are really outstanding. As I said, I'm no expert on hiphop, but The Rising Tied is a massive masterpiece concerning melodies, moods and production.
Nevertheless, you're on the right track. I would definately work on technical things (professionalizing the sound) and variations with vocals (as described above). There's certainly potential and a clear character of what your music is and goes to. |

I got it that way....I know FM is outstanding and nothing to compare with my stuff.
But their music inspires me a lot.
