About Me

ATTENTION - Some people cared not to listen to what I said before, so now comments require my approval. Don't even bother trying to advertise your body or your new way to make money on my site.

I am THE Joe Kurve -- an ARIES, GEMINI, AQUARIUS.
I've been gone for a while (over a year), and will continue to be. Am I writing more music? Yes. Will it be released? Yes. When? I have no fucking clue. Sorry, but that's the way it is now. Please enjoy all my music of old, and when I finally get around to releasing something, you will be pleased much. But for now, I'm gonna go write some music I'm not gonna upload...for a REASON - everything I'm writing these days only does one thing: it make all my older tracks sound GOOD. That's a bad thing...

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 22/10/2004
Band Website: ArtistServer.com/JKurve
Influences: Hallucinogen, Sphongle, Fluke, Astrix, Alien Project, Astral Projection, Psilly-X, Infected Mushroom, ph4n, Yahel, Kai Tracid, Orbital, Fatboy Slim, Uberzone, Tool, Prodigy, NiN, all hip-hop artists, NicSac
Sounds Like: Astral Projection? Playskool? Nintendo? Kinda of a weird question, asking me to judge myself, right? So let's just be honest, shall we?

I write music because if I didn't I would have nothing to listen to. Rare is the song, of ANY GENRE, that speaks to me, telling me to find out WHO the artist is. There are a billion "musicians" these days, but the real ARTISTS are just as rare as they ever were. The good music is still there, it's just harder to find, lost in the thick fog of remixes and emulations being conjured by all these peeps that think they can write music just cuz they can bob their head on beat.

I'll tell you something - ANYBODY can make sound. Hell, ANYBODY can make MUSIC (it's RELATIVE - what I call music others may not, and vis versa) with a little bit of technology to hold his hand. So you can make some noise with a computer...but can you tell me WHAT you did? Time and key sigs, rhythms...can you even walk up to a piano and play the rhythm you just programmed in the machine? Making music is not what makes you a musician. An ARTIST.

Check this out: when you can pick up a brush, dip it in beautiful soundstyles and then bring to life something that lives on its own - something that has its own energy, its own personality, its own, truly original flavor - THAT is when you have truly been an artist, my friend. It's not the creation of music that makes you an artist - it's the way in which you go about it.

Basically, I write music because there are no artists similar to me, therefore I can't find the music I want to listen to and must make it. It just so happens other people like to listen to it too, so I can't be that crazy.

Tell you what - why don't YOU contact me and tell me who YOU think I sound like, and I'll be sure update this fill.in.with.text.box.thingy.ASAP.
