TECHDOG 4

[@Patricia_Taxxon]

Thanks so much for listening everyone, the reception has been such a fantastic treat after all this time working on the album! I'll be releasing a compilation of all four parts to KZbin and BandCamp tomorrow :D

[@TapDat52K]

way to complete the musical journey! we look forward to your next one,

[@4ndr7a82]

i've been waiting for the full series to come out to hear it, cool to see it'll all be compiled into one thing! can't wait to listen!!

[@foxtail-pip]

Thank YOU for making this amazing music!!

[@LexYeen]

I'm not even done with my first listen and I've already hit download on the youtube app. _Very_ good dog. 🤘

[@cnflx]

huh? there's another one? *points towards a door with the 5th techdog for the people who do not know about the 5th one yet*

[@ashleybyrd2015]

not doppler kicked so much ass. so many school hours spent playing flash games. good times.

Techdogging rn

[@ClosetDemon]

i wish i could eat the year of the dog song so i could have that kind of autistic furry positivity in my soul 24/7. honestly this goes for 99% of patricia taxxon songs. it wasnt just patricia but im not joking when i say this silly trans autistic furry art and other online weirdos are saving my life. i've unknowingly abandoned most of myself over the years just trying to keep myself alive, i feel like im finally at a point where i'm remembering again and i wish more than anything to live with the kind of sincerity that this music and these kinds of people kindle inside of me. what i'd give to be able to be a dog in real life

[@Skunksio]

so true! music is one of the greatest reasons to keep on going :>

[@nihilnihil161]

8:27 dang, with the sleep mask and the headphones, it feels like my brain's strings are being played with 9:51 OMG THE SNARE IS SO MOIST 😂😂

[@cnflx]

The fact that this one fades to black rather than fading to white is anxiety-inducing to me. It definitely mixes well with the final song, with it's dark ambient. Kudos on creating 4 amazing parts!

This poor fool, they had the power of insight, but no way to view forthright. And we, as foolish as they were, are gifted the hindsight our poor fool would've wished to have had. Like the mother who noticed Bernie Madoff could never look her in the eyes, so are the days of us fools

18:19 5 BEAT 16TH NOTE GROUPINGS MY BELOVED

[@androidedoidao]

After listening to the whole project I'm once again stunned by Patricia's ability to play with sounds while creating such an unique but instantly recognizable soundscape. Her sound, to me, is almost childish, in the sense that it's incredibly brash and confident, infinitely inventive and always hopeful, be it in the more somber tunes or the joyful ones. Absolutely live it. Favorite track: CGCTGHTOHDOEDE

[@meanderingsquirrel885]

Hey, 1:16:00 helped me here real bad, I was dissacoiating really heavy and it helped me climb back into reality there. Thank you, just feel a lot better, thank you.

who up teching they dog rn⁉️

[@thomastschirn4401]

Me, ive lready taught my afghan hound to do a perfect korean backdash

[@toastknight2439]

I am so happy about the use of that sample at 16:44, it unlocked some core nostalgic memories for me! Thanks for the amazing music!

[@weezerfan1232]

WHERE IS IT FROM??!!?! is it kongregate? idk. I know its from flash games... i just cant place it

[@piss.warlock]

@@weezerfan1232 it's the not doppler intro

[@machinate]

the Autechre track Sim Gishel has a similar retrospective vibe, but it's much darker. But I definitely felt that vibe, possibly because of the classic Patricia backbeat to it.

[@francegamer]

@@piss.warlock Thanks so much, I would've been thinking about it all day otherwise! Glad I got to play flash natively for at least a little bit in my youth.

[@Lutan_the_fey]

I did not read the description at first, I wanted to allow the music to describe the feeling. After the first three, this seemed like the right way to enjoy it, to me. The first title greeted me with a dark, oppressive and mechanical landscape and after a while an aetherial, innocent and fragile melody arose from that, grew stronger and clearer, becoming less aetherial but never loosing its vulnerability. I was confused and yet this all seemed to make sense, it felt... familiar. So scrolled down to read "Feeling like myself." That hit like a hammer. Now, that I am done listening to the entire album, I still am not over how much that first song resonated and I will have to revisit this as soon as I am done processing. Am I ever thankful I came across your work. Love Lutan

[@meteor1373]

I've listened to this so much that just hearing the starting bits to DEDGDEDCEG...(something something idk I just call it year of the dog) at 1:16:00 makes me squeal and turn the volume to max, or nearly to max so that at 1:18:10 I can turn it up even more :D And then of course in DOTDOHOTGTHE... the 8th piece in techdog 3, what I like to call the mini version of this, we hear the same song but we haven't gone through fire to find where it left off yet Or something like that I especially love hearing bits of it in a couple pieces of techdog 2, currently I'm also trying to figure out if there's much of it in techdog 1 as well, haven't really decided but I wouldn't be surprised To me this (not just the specific piece, but techdog 4 itself honestly) is the emotional height in a similar way to how Beast Creature was the emotional high point of Mapplethorpe for me, at least in regards to being ecstatic and overwhelmed with wonder

[@km72327]

the ending to this album is the best part imo, the year of the dog is so triumphant and then the noise slowly being corrupted by heavy unfamiliar out of place sounds as it fades to darkness is just really impactful

[@globoxplays2761]

I need this on Spotify rn😭❤️

Experiencing these 4 as they came out was absolutely magical. Thanks.

[@NeonLabsss]

47:19 this is so good I’m so happy I looked into your channel, reminds me of Sophie I love this soundscape of unique complex drum patterns and nice synth and piano like Melodie’s with these voice samples so cool

[@RoundSeal]

I absolutely can't wait until I can binge these. And then binge the compilation. This Patricia Pup art is so good too, she's free, peaceful and confident in her footfalls. Good dog 💚

Oh I love the instrumentation in this! There's sections where the instrumentation reminds me of various previous albums of yours, but taken to 11. And also the extremely stimmy sound design of the rest of the TECHDOGs. Thank you so much for this

[@basilminitiate8332]

Love the way your vocals float along with these songs.

[@every_eve]

you've made art here. these are just incredible

[@DeadPotatoX_X]

Wow, an entire hour and a half more for the final fourth part! I just love the emotions that your music lets me feel, and it just has a certain vibe to it that I don’t really get listening to anyone else’s music. I love how it’s so unapologetically different from other kinds of music, not just to be different, but because different is the best that it can be.
