Normally I would post my stuff in the Creative Music in Progress thread, but I feel this track can stand on its own. It came together so well!
This might be a preview for an upcoming EP (at the rate I am going, maybe even a full album) I want to try to release in the future.
this sounds less like a song and more like random percussion instruments with loads of echo and reverb slapped on them, placed at random intervals to eachother
I definitely agree with Bobie, but more esteemed musicians such as Aphex Twin or UNKLE have gotten away with stuff like this, so I guess it's not ENTIRELY bad.

One of the original ideas behind industrial music was anti-music. This is is me taking a stab at anti-music.
I could see this being used in a some kinda video or a game. It gives a feeling of a destroyed battlefield with an army of robots passing over it. I just don't like the sounds at 0:49 and 1:46. They come so randomly and kinda disrupt the song.

Evolving on this style - I have two new tracks.

Out of the three tracks you've posted, my favorite is definitely the second. The first track didn't really go anywhere, but was more of the same throughout the song. The second track has some minimalist progression going on, and I really like that. It also has a bit more rhythm to it, but it still keeps the industrial-chaotic nature of the first track. It feels more entropic than anything else. I really like it.
Of the third track, I would suggest you make the bass a lot heavier. Whenever that bass kick comes in after the hats, I keep expecting it to be a really filthy, distorted bass tone, but it's just so weak. However, I do like the introduction of drum beats - they add a lot of dimensionality to the music.
Ideally, I would think a natural evolution of your tracks would be to somehow combine the second and third tracks - keep the chaotically-ordered nature of the second track, and combine it with the cold-industry feel of the third track (which is really stylized with the drum beat).
More bass wouldn't hurt either.
All in all, I like them all, though the first is definitely the weakest. I hope to hear some more tracks from you. :buddy:
