  • There's actually some good stuff in the scout room today. With the exception of G*** O***** that is who is utter dirge and I've heard two of his now.

    So sorry Loz about the paypal I hope your account stops being threatened and pay pal sort it. They must realise this is serious for them, they're owned by ebay aren't they?

  • I finally got round to scouting yesterday and really enjoyed it. There's nothing yet that I've really loved or hated, I just find myself quite indifferent to the majority of tracks.

    15 tracks in so far with an accuracy of 85%

  • Right i just want to get this off my chest regarding tracks here in this room
    *deep breath*

    Right ok so why on earth do tracks use samples in the intro that has no direct correlation to anything in the rest of the track i just dont get it, its like the track starts with the sample or spoken word or whatever then theres a gap and then the track starts and its just sounds thrown together- a great example of this is an artist called No name at present it was awful

    However to the other extreme an awesome pop electronic mish mash of a track that i utterly loved and very very nearly clicked a 10 to is temposhark they were grand ;-)

    Whenever I hear tracks that start and stop like that I always imagine they are using those pre-recorded buttons on keyboards. I've said a few times in my review about them stopping and starting.

    On the other side i've had 2 tracks by The Carnival Kids and really like them.

  • Yay ... back to 2 stars. I have listened to a few tracks tonight which haven't improved my accuracy, however I used the 6 tips I had hanging around and immediately I jumped back up to 2 and my Scout Position jumped back up from over 7000 to 1391.

    my current Scout Rating is 2star.gif
    my current Scout Position is 1391
    my Scouting Accuracy is 75.17 %
    I have reviewed 269 tracks

    Hope this helps someone to avoid making this mistake because it not only reduces your earnings but dips your morale.

    Use your tip as soon as you can!
