dimrain47!! :)

I agree. Dimrain even told me that himself. He says his new stuff is different though. It better be...

I'm not gonna buy the CD though. Waste of money. I prefer to hear previews of songs before I buy/download them.

lol I typed this like 2 hours ago. I forgot about this.

I would love to spend all my hard earned money on this. You know, THE MONEY I DON'T HAVE. I'd probably buy if I could. Too bad I'm poor.

Also, I'm not saying that Dimrain is bad or that I dislike him or anything. I do like him, but API does have a point. His NG music would be simple to replicate. I dunno what is on the album, but he said it was more original. :D

Thanks for your vote, MaestroRage! You voted 5 for -API- All of the World, keeping it at the score of 3.98

XD

You know you have too many votes on a song when...

yeah I five by-ed a few songs, they did close to nothing. Damn you and your awesomely powerful and popular songs.

Be nice ocon, he's cool. just a over hyper active fan boy that all.

Wow, I knew this would happen.

So, you guys couldn't find anything better to do than to complain about how my fanbase is so large, even though my old music is so simple and shitty? Didn't surprise me at all, actually.

Dude, API, I can understand how jealousy can get the best of all of us sometimes. But there's a fine line between that, and just being a flat out douchebag. I find it funny that someone who's been on the AP twice as long as me and has almost 4 times the submissions has nearly half of the downloads I do. Nice single solitary diamond track, btw...

None of you has heard what changes I have made to my style, my method, and my music. If you don't like my music, if you think I suck, I'm perfectly fine with that. Just respect what I am doing here. Fuck, I'd buy almost any album that came out of Newgrounds, just because I love NG and I support the fact that it maintains an outlet for people to do whatever the fuck they want, whether it's create flash or create music.

And no, I don't have any alt accts. I'm not THAT lame *cough*Saint_Isaiah*cough.*

even though my old music is so simple and shitty? Didn't surprise me at all, actually.

You'd be suprised what standards and expectations certain fans have in any kind of music. It is relatively simple to acquire a fanbase when you know what you're doing.

Dude, API, I can understand how jealousy can get the best of all of us sometimes.

Conceit bordering ignorance. No, this isn't my fight, but I know API's response will be far from mine.

Otherwise, you seem like a relatively swell guy.

Why...

You people are lame. He asked one fucking question. Are you going to buy the album or not? If you're a fan, that is He never did anything to you. Never bitched at you, never started anything with you...

so stop being jealous and shut the fuck up. He's honestly trying to figure out how many CD's he needs for his FANS.

Why do you feel so compelled to turn this conversation into a stupid insult-fest? You simply had to click on this just because you wanted to be cruel, and that is so ridiculous.

You're the kind of people that make the world a more ignorant place, and I know you'll probably quote me and say something stupid, but I honestly don't care, because I have a life, and I simply came on here because I am a fan and know what's going on.

However, I just wanted to try and get this thread back to the point so that we can help Dimrain out. If you're not here to help him out or support him, please leave. I'm asking you that kindly, and I know Dimrain would too.

If you continue to be idiotic...congrats, you are the definition of a douchebag.

You realise, admiting to 0ring gratiously is the number one way to get yourself hated on the AP?

No!

I said no, API said no, EnglandSucks said no, Khuskan said no, DSMangum said no. So what's the big deal so far?

People like you interjecting: when API laughed, EnglandSucks jumped right out and made an assumption, which then caused a zero voter arguement.

so stop being jealous and shut the fuck up.

Show proof of aforementions jealousy.

I happen to avoid techno and dance music, I don't listen to dimrain, I don't know dimrain fans, and I do not aspire to become a techno king. I'd have ot be the opposite, and have to give a shit, in order to be jealous.

Also, if dimrain has such a fantastic fanbase, why does he need to make a thread to define if he needs to sell a record?

Why do you feel so compelled to turn this conversation into a stupid insult-fest?

We clearly stated no and were opposed by his "fanbase", this forced us to state our reasons. (See: Dragonsgrief).

You're the kind of people that make the world a more ignorant place, and I know you'll probably quote me and say something stupid, but I honestly don't care, because I have a life, and I simply came on here because I am a fan and know what's going on.

Translation: I really don't know why you guys do this, I mean, you're all jealous of course. I mean, what I meant to say was, I don't know why you guys do this, but you're all just ignorant instead, ACTUALLY, what I meant to say, say what you want, I don't care. So just nevermind this paragraph.

PS, I'm not an alt.

However, I just wanted to try and get this thread back to the point so that we can help Dimrain out. If you're not here to help him out or support him, please leave. I'm asking you that kindly, and I know Dimrain would too.

If you continue to be idiotic...congrats, you are the definition of a douchebag.

Translation: Just nevermind guys, what I'm really here to do, is to ask all you fine gentlemen if you want to retract your given right to vote yes or no, and just let enough people say yes to get by.

Also, you're all bad if you say anything back, so nevermind the gentlemen part.

Bottom line is though that he asked not to post if you didn't want the album.

Post.

Whoops XD

OH SHI-

You know guys, I may be missing something but from my standpoint it really seems like you guys ARE being douche bags a bit.

Don't get me wrong... I love all you guys >_< I just don't understand what the big deal is and where you are coming from.

I have only been submitting music and getting to know most of you for 2 months tho'... but still... from where i'm standing it really does just seem like a bunch of jealous guys who are mad.

However... I know most of you guys somewhat well and I really don't think thats what you are so would someone care to explain to me?

And although the person who Erkie tore apart with his mass intelect worded his statements very wrong and careless... down to it he really did have a heartfelt point he was trying to express.

It was his words that shot it down and ruined it... by saying such things as "O and don't respond"...

If someone walks up to you and says "Oi- I'd rather eat bugs and shit then look at your face and don't respond to me or your a douche" you WILL most likely respond anyways.

Anyhow -- this whole thing is confusing me... and I honestly can't say who I agree with.

he can be a faggot, i can be a faggot. just because his music sucks compared to dimrain's, dosen't mean he can be an asshole to him.

yes his style may be old, and unoriginal. but who has the record album, and is getting mail from presidents of companies like square enix, konami, to make music for them?

I would buy one man! Just let me know how and when.

WOW!!!! this thread got out of hand very quickly didn't it, jesus it's been good, it's been pretty funny, it's also been a little sad that some of the regs have felt the need to berate an artist over his musical talent. When, at the end of day, we're all in the same boat and we all strive to get an album out there for the masses. You may not like his music, you may not think he's got any talent but kinda keep it a bit hushed eh? also to the fan boys, i know you're only defending someone you like, but there's no need to be so vitirolic towards people who don't like it. AND ESPECIALLY NO NEED TO 0 VOTE ANOTHER PERSON'S MUSIC. just get your houses in order the lot of you's and let this thread do it's job.

damn your logic.

This is my last post in here. You might be cringing or feeling something, but so far I've only stated the truth.

Bottom line is though that he asked not to post if you didn't want the album.

Indeed, the discrepancy being he wanted to clutter the forum with a question of whether or not he'd be a successful artist, even after his little mishaps, even after parading around how successful he is here. Even KingBastard knew people would buy his album, he just gave people the store.

it really seems like you guys ARE being douche bags a bit.

Yeah, it's intentional.

I just don't understand what the big deal is and where you are coming from.

This is my incentive. Sure, it was a while ago, he's new, he's changed. But it's probably more things then that. And now he's here asking this question.

bunch of jealous guys who are mad.

I'd rather shoot myself then make techno. And I could care less if I have a huge fanbase. I'm not that arrogant to say I wasn't jealous, I don't do things out of a feeling or something arbitrary.

by saying such things as "O and don't respond"...

To respond... To him, if you're saying stupid things to directly contradict him. Such as, "Oh you're all jealous and ignorant and if you respond like a hick to make me look stupid, then don't bother". As you can see, I did the opposite, I showed him how he contradicted himself in his structure.

and I honestly can't say who I agree with.

You don't have to, it's not my 'battle', or your's, it's just indecent and unbalanced.

When, at the end of day, we're all in the same boat and we all strive to get an album out there for the masses.

As stated before, and perhaps only one other time about several months ago, I make music because I enjoy doing so. I don't make music for people, leave that for the techno guys.

Dimrain's music sucks. His NG music at least. It wouldn't be too hard to replicate. API is better than Dimrain. So maybe a lot of API's NG tracks suck, but he has a few good ones. Not every song someone makes will be great.

About the the whole "Whose releasing a record", you know nothing. API was signed by a record company, and is too creating an Album. The only difference between the two is that API didn't create his label, unlike Dimrain. API worked hard to get his music professionally produce. Dimrain simply created his. I consider that being cheap.

One last thing. Most Video Game companies have Musicians who make all the music for them, like Nintendo has Koji Kondo and Square Enix has Nobuo Uematsu and others.

Yes, I'm an API fan, and I gave as much information as I could. Don't hate me just because of this. So what if I don't like someone you don't(agree with)? No reason to go crazy.

@ Erkie: You used too many big words. It hurt my brain. :(

Also, don't say that OMFG UR JUS JELOUS or that HIS MUZIK IS BETTER THAN URS because one, I'm not jealous. I don't want to make music like his. And two, I know I suck. I can't really change that, but I'm working on it.

And when I said Dimrains music sucks, I meant that it could be much better. Yes it's appealing, but it was easily made and he probably didn't spend more than a few, 12 at most, hours on each song. I just don't think that he's so great that he deserves 15,000 fans.

Can you clarify why I'd be jealous about this? Also, I've got 2 diamond tracks, nice eyesight, dude. I caused a ruckus, it's my fault. But really, answer that question.

Also, I pee on this thread.

Sorry for being a dick.

Yeah, I've BEEN rejected by some labels, but then again, I've rejected some of them too. Oh, say, Blue Smoke Records, Galaxy ME, Infinite Sector Recordings.... I find producing my own music under my own name quite an accomplishment, actually. Cheap? I one's own opinion, I guess.

@ Erkie: You used too many big words. It hurt my brain. :(

His "intellect" would show through a little more thouroughly if he'd stop pretending he's contradicting people and help the cause that ISN'T being understood.

And that is, If you would like to support my cause, then let me know. If not, go about you daily lives. If you have one, that is.

And yes, once everything is developed, you will have access to samples to hear, so that you can decide, "Wow, nevermind." or "Hmm.. maybe" or "Wow, I like that."

Erkie, yay for using big words and complex sentences. You've left your marks here, now you can leave.

I was reading and when I cliked to page 2 I was o knows im going to make a pro post but then dimrain said it so I was damn...

so I just make it anyways with some tweaks.

DragonsGrief what is wrong with you? just stop.

Api Im buying your single if I can find it in stores but come on there is no need to go out on dimrain.

Dimrain who cares about DL's they don't mean a thing. Also I will believe that you improved but not enough to get me to buy a cd nto now anyways maybe if I get setup online with pay pal or i get creditcard online then I buy it because just like how you said it If I can support NG people I will.

and 5 bonus points to Erkie for making me laugh in his posts
