Re: Dapianokid's Official Previews Thread

Arguments go both ways regarding wether this is the feature of XY or not. Y'all gotta understand shit ain't just black and white. There are at least fifty shades of grey in between 8)

First of, as a forthcoming track (let's assume that), it is per definition "the future".

yesyesyes ok, xy stacks and flings are familiar territory. Nevertheless, dap is executing his tricks as if xy doesn't limit him. I am guessing xy was one way to limit yourself in the first place in order to challenge your capabilities. Either way, it is worth acknowledging that it limits a player. Those are limits dap has mostly overcome.

Orth is also taking xy to the next level. Space recycling has been around for ever, but he takes that shit to another dimension.

It has been done in the past and dap will probably be the only one who master it. It will indeed not change or impact the concept of XY greatly , but it will widen our vision of it. Taking one idea or concept to the next level by focusing on it exclusively is STILL taking it to the next level. Breaking the limits within just one aspect of xy is STILL breaking the limits. It won't effect funky laid back xy and similiar sub-styles, but I strongly disagree a track publishment will ever again impact the community to such extent it will revolutionize any major track category (maybe with the exception of scenery).


Remember: this shit ain't black or white. This is so much more than just art vs technicality.

it's funny because his vision of the future of xy is at the same time the future of xy so I don't know wouldn't the universe implode

I never said doing things that were previously limited by xy werent impressive, but for this to be a well used method of making a track, everyone would have to be able to make the types of stacks found in what he has done to make these things possible. its not practical and it seems like more work than should ever be needed. the future of xy shouldn't be about normalizing the genre to regular standards, but making it more unique to itself

watch ubermicro. while not technically impressive, its space recycling rivals any others

this isn't the problem i had with the track, it was that dap was preaching about how it will change the future for generations to come, when really, it will be in this one track probably ever.

i think you are only seeing things in black and white and maybe grey.

i think you are only seeing things in black and white and maybe grey.

I am quite clearly on one side of the spectrum. I think dap is forging xy future. I can not speak for others, but I will strive to achieve a similar xy understanding.

the future of xy shouldn't be about normalizing the genre to regular standards, but making it more unique to itself

This is what i find the most interesting, the mimicking of another genre in itself. Genres in general does not define its content, it merely narrows it down so that you have a decent idea of what you're getting yourself into. Dap's track is redefining its genre by expanding upon it as well as closing the gap between xy and "regular" tracks. When does a track stop being just xy? How close to regular tracks does an xy has to be before "regular standards" applies to it?

Well shit this makes me want to finish Phantom

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

Sorry for the double post, but I'm doing some previews
First one is how far we currently are on the new gigastacks track, although the last few frames aren't staying. I think it's almost 2 seconds long now.

Second one is a track I'm doing to explore the possibilities of these new stacks and convincing lone to convince me to give me the tools I need to enhance and enact my vision. It's only 2 seconds long, as well.

Third one is an experiment with angled cannons, don't mind me. Just showing you guys what I'm up to, because Rabid inspired me to with the content of his post about discontinuing


Thanks for taking a looksee <3 Any feedback is appreciated!

Just had an idea: Transcendental Quirk. We'll see how that plays out.

Moving on, this:

how I feel when I finally start making my theories a reality

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

just shit
plain, motherfucking shit
this is shit

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

I was all out of ideas when I had a better idea:

more shit

[anton]

Now with extra stackz

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

guys we're getting somewhere it's close to finished

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

up to 1:30 mark
now it's a party

[ScrungleBlumpkus]

Guesses for how many lines this track will have or how long it is right now will be included in credits, in order of who was closest (except for those who know already)
