Benjamin Briggs Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 http://bbriggs.halc9bit.com/ As you may or may not know, when I'm not being a total douchebag or generally making an ass of myself around the forums, I like to make music. However, up until now, it's only been super-gay video game remixes. BUT NO MORE! I would like to proudly introduce my debut original album, 'Attention Deficit EP'! I'd also like to apologize to Josh Whelchel and the Songs for the Cure crew for stepping on their release date, but today is a special occasion for me (just successfully completed 18 long months of probation), and I feel that this is the perfect time to release this pile of crap. Inspired and influenced by PrototypeRaptor, halc, WillRock, ProtoDome, and deadmau5 (just to name a few); I sincerely hope you love it, because I loved making it! A word of caution to the listener: This is not your mother's boom-tiss album. Expect no mercy, no shame, and (almost) no breakdowns... 'Attention Deficit' is exactly what you'd never expect and more. I mean, damn, just LOOK at that insane album art! You have been warned. This album is available for free on Bandcamp (name-your-price; enter 0.00 for free download!), but all donations are greatly appreciated and will go towards making new music. Please like/retweet, and most importantly, enjoy! HUGE thanks to sexy and talented ProtoDome for the EXCELLENT artwork. You may bask in all of it's high-res glory HERE! (and also thanks to the incredible halc for kind of making this thread while he was somewhat drunk) linkdump lol http://facebook.com/bbriggsmusic http://twitter.com/bbriggsmusic http://soundcloud.com/bbriggsmusic http://youtube.com/bbriggsmusic http://last.fm/music/Benjamin+Briggs edit: if you download this, or listen to any of this, I'm calling you out. pop in to tell me that you hated it, or that you loved it, or that you could "like, browse the internet to it I guess" and we can still be friends. I have really kickass birthday parties that it would be in your best interest to be invited to edit: josh whelchel you have one too many H's in your name and I forgot one.... fixed Quote

Blake Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 You have a really good ear for mixing. The productions sound snappy, punchy, and just perfect all around. Thanks for the music! Quote

Benjamin Briggs Posted March 29, 2011 Author Posted March 29, 2011 thanks for all the support everyone! my sagging breasts thank you for the lift Quote
RoadiePC Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I just wanted to pop in and THANK YOU for offering the music for free. Some seriously awesome tuneage you've put up, and even broke folk like myself are invited to enjoy it. That means a lot when the choices are: A: no mew music B: feeling like a toolbox for pirating(which I try to avoid) THANK YOU for that; I promise I'll try to throw you some bones when the next one hits.

PrototypeRaptor Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 who is this Ben Briggs guy? sum noob? moar chthonic plz but seriously this is a great ep, and you should feel some sort of great sadness if you download it with no love for the crazy dude who made it. no really, he's pretty out there.

Josh Whelchel Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Holy shit man. This is gorgeous ear music! Tight production, especially on track 5. I liked track 5 so much I paid $5 for the album. I got tired of listening to SFTC anyway (; Quote
WillRock Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I'm calling you out. pop in to tell me that you hated it, or that you loved it, or that you could "like, browse the internet to it I guess" and we can still be friends. Very well. I hated it, loved it, and I could browse the internet to it I guess... minus the hating part of course <3 Quote
Gollgagh Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I'm listening to the whole thing before deciding how much to throw at you Quote
Benjamin Briggs Posted March 30, 2011 Author Posted March 30, 2011 thank you all very very much! Quote
ambinate Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 man, this is fucking great. the production is excellent (and super crisp) and the writing is killer. congratulations, dude! i'll be listening to this for a good while. i creeped on you and started following you on soundcloud, so if you were wondering who the hell "ambinate" was, that's me. definitely looking forward to future releases Quote
Xarnax42 Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 It's so CRUNCHY! Also, "Love the Dance" has replaced Daft Punk's spot as my ringtone. Quote
Rellik Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 This EP has sounds that make me want to pay money. Quote
HalcyonSpirit Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Well, I'm adding this to my growing list of albums I need to pay money for once I have the disposable income to do so. Probably $10 when it comes down to it. Maybe $15 if it grows on me even more than it has already. It's really, really good. Sorry I can't pay you right now, but that's unemployment for you. Quote
Level 99 Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 It is with uh, great pride that I dedicate this new school, sports arena, or attraction. (Cuts the ribbon and drives off.) (But no seriously, this makes me hot. Awesome work, Ben.) Quote
Kidd Cabbage Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I'll listen to more after school and work, but I checked out the first track and it's enjoyable. Defs hear the deadmau5 in it. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I put it on my phone and I set Love The Game as my ringtone. :3 EDIT: But then I replaced it with Super Mario Bros 2 Character Select theme Quote
Ghetto Lee Lewis Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I hated every minute of this pile of crap. Quote
PrototypeRaptor Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I hated every minute of this pile of crap. Quote
