Your latter statement is somewhat true, from a subjective point of view,
but there is also truth into objectively quantifying some music as
well. Autechre's Cichli and the ring of my cell phone both can be
classified as music, but it's easily quantifiable from a quality
standpoint. I think Cichli has more melodic, emotional and textural
entertainment value than 95% of music out there, let alone a cell phone
ring.
Given this, you must understand that your critic wasn't wrong in
pointing out some negative aspects of your music. Don't lump his
supported opinions (by support, i mean he gave you specific examples,
nearly in outline form!) into one statement, but instead take it as
advice, and one's concern for another's music. Granted, I haven't heard
a note of what you've written, nor do I care, but please don't close
your mind to what other people may think. You and your friends, who are
most likely in biased awe of your production, aren't the only audience
in the world.
And if you keep attacking everything anyone on this list says with
slander, you'll get nothing but slander back.
