Beneboi - Zero Class

http://beneboi.headfoam.net/Beneboi.zip

A few people were interested in downloading some sort of beneboi release, so i put this together.

Enjoy

headfoam represent!!!

bonus track

i fucking love your music man. this is all top notch

I listened to HeavyV, and I really liked it. The way the sounds obfuscate each other is really cool. The chord progression sort of reminded me of Clubbed to Death.

Really quality work.

Listened to everything and sorted my favorites into two EPs (spent quite a while on the track listing).

first:

Split

Saginaw

Slick

Roadtrip

second:

713

Plaidlike

Effected

Crept

Event Horizon

The first reminds me of something that would be on Ninja Tune or Mo' Wax.

The second reminds me of something that would be on Plug Research, Flying Lotus's Brainfeeder label or Lex Records.

Type up a one sheet (bio, what releases your work was featured on and info about the label that released the work - might want to include only physically released material, for the reason that bigger independent labels are usually hesitant about releasing work that is all ready available for free download online - , places you've played, a possible artist statement...) and send out some demos man, people would buy this!

Another suggestion would be to possibly use another alias if you send stuff out. When you send out a demo, and someone at a label really likes your work and is interested, first thing that person is going to do is see if you have a presence (a following at a live venue/dj night or an online presence). Because what they are looking for is what they have to work with, even smaller independent labels. So if they google beneboi and see your work online and personal posts on message boards and what not, while they will be impressed by the positive responses people have to your work, they might not be so open to release your work because there is no mystery or anything left to the imagination.

Have a friend who got a few call backs from a bigger independent label, they had decided not to release his work, the label guy was very interested but my friend all ready had a lot of free stuff online and his presence was kind of an open book (posting personal opinions and what have you regularly on message boards and myspace), they really had no image or angle to work with as far as marketing/advertising was concerned. I dunno... sorry this turned into a rant of sorts, sending out demos is always a crap shoot. Anyway, could totally see your stuff being picked up and released somewhere. Awesome tunes.

* downloads *

wow, thanks for the time and effort you put into that post Dino man, you brought up some points that i had not even considered yet. i am thinking about changing tha name i release this stuff, but im not sure what i want yet. im going to get on that one sheet business and go ahead and send out some demos (been procrastinating about that for over 2 years)

i skimmed this, think i had heard some of the tracks before

standouts: crept, eventhorizon, geton, lift you up, plaidlike, soar

yea man, do a mail out! Could also see that first one on ESL ,George Evelyn's (Nightmares On Wax) label Wax On or like Ubiquity Records. Could see the second one on Ghostly International or like Definitive Jux as well. 713 sounds kind of like something that would be on ATLiens, founnky. Keep up the good work

this shit is pretty banging, gets on my ipod, thanks!

def. among the best stuff I've heard so far this year.

funny how much of the stuff on YLC is much better than most other "big label-released music" downloaded.. ;-V

Saginaw - kinda DJ Krush-like that, love it.

thanks, i just noticed i accidentally put a really old version of gone campin in that zip, so skip over that one

i noticed that you accidentally put event horizon in too. whoops!

also, effected is fucking amazing

I'm having trouble downloading this, which is disappointing as all these comments have got me juiced up!

It keeps cutting off at about 30mb downloaded. I'll try again tomorrow.

lol.....

your shit is dope son, but it sounds even better with my guitars and vocals on it, we could take over the world with that ish.

Im gonna get down on effected and eerie here hella mad turbo soon and get some heavy guitars on heavyv.

fuck I hate being a vampire my girlfriend gets me to pass out at 12, I sleep for an hour and I bet my bank account(approx. 4 dollars) that I wont be able to fall asleep till atleast 7am

fuck your African American girlfriend

one step ahead of you... today was the first time I got laid in like 2 weeks.

but im pretty sure im gonna break up with her so I can focus my time and money on music.

Im gonna make the structure on Widow Maker flow a bit more and extend it to approx. 4:20 to 4:44. Thinkin bout callin it Out The Grave

think thats a more fitting title.

bow down to beneboi's bene babies this kid makes more songs than my bootyhole makes the bad smell

I listened to it only once so far but it's really sweet. I've mostly been impressed with your more hip hop based tracks but I like that this is a lot of different styles, cos I like variation in albums. Nothing really stood out to me, but like I say I've only listened to it once, but I'm sure it won't be the last time :P

I love 'get on'!

I finally managed to download it, thought i'd join in on the wank sesh - quality selection of tracks man, some absolutely brilliant sampling + fantastic production.

I would pay money for your tracks if they were out there on wax, (and if i had money) look into it mate.

wow, thanks for all the comments guys, there is an album on the way, and im looking at different labels right now.
