I kinda agree with Nak, people need to know of what they are getting themselves in for, rather than it happening say a month down the line and not having any advance warning of it. To be quite honest, I have no idea why that message was sent, the content of it is shocking and I for one am completely surprised that Quade would say such a thing. Also with regards to the commercial side of the argument, I would rather have anything I do be appreciated on here that reach commercial heights and play into what the "fad" of music is. I'm not against commercialism per se but when it looks like you're stamping on the people who helped you reach such heights, well they will be the same people you turn to when you're on the way down. And as for being number one on an internet chart I've never even heard of (and I'm a self confessed computer geek myself so there's not much I haven't heard of especially when it comes to music) it matters about as much to me as dirt on my shoe, cos hell I've been number one on computer forum charts before for various exploits but it's nothing to brag about. I see it in store, or on iTunes, then brag away and I'll be one of the first to congratulate you.
I've been #1 in Electronica and Techno on the ShowcaseYourMusic charts and hey it's nice... It gives me a sense of accomplishment, pride, and success, but it wouldn't have happened without TIMGUL. It simply wouldn't have.... TIMGUL helped inspire me to get to that point. Reading comments from everyone helped inspire me to be even better. It gave me a encouragement, confidence, and inspiration. When I see people from around the world listening to my music and are so gracious to give me respect to where I can even be mentioned on such a chart inspires me to be better. It is due to this that I still feel like my best work has yet to be produced. It is due to this that the music flows through me and gives me such imagination at what I can create, and inspires me to create what I have not.
i didn't see the message either but i have one from quade he sent me on showcaseyourmusic after his ban and it's pretty bad pm me if u wanna see it.i decided to save it for proof if needed of quades malice casper
i'm doing the very best i can to be positive casper
I pretty missed the whole thing (I think being in the UK does that. :P) so I'm guessing Quade left after some stuff between you guys?
I guess if I don't know, I shouldn't; unless it really made an impact. That said, it seems to have been resolved so this post is kinda meaningless. :P
So my two £0.02 on it - unfortunate to see him go, but I wasn't stopping him. Made a bunch of good tunes and if he wanted to move on, so be it.
