Are you creative? I am. Here's some of my crap music for you to all to judge me. Contructive criticism, full blown insults or whatever welcome, I'm not fussy as it entertains me and my friends. http://disorder.rc55.com/scissors.mp3 note: work in progress, ends suddenly. style: drum n bass http://disorder.rc55.com/broadcast.mp3 style : trance/club Feel free to post some other crap that you crafted/assembled/drew/excreted or otherwise produced in any way, shape or form.
I like everything on "Scissors" except the drums sound a little watered down. I'd like a crisper snare and a tuner tom with that. Still, it moves well; good driving track. Reminds me a bit of Prodigy but without the rib-cracking drums. The percussion works better for "Broadcast" although I couldn't shake the mental image of smiles and his boys raving to it.
uh the drums on scissors kind of fucked me up when they didnt have any real rythm. broadcast sounded pretty good, but I kept thinking there was a gay bar missing a theme song somewhere in the world....
Hilarious, yeah, thats not exactly macho that Broadcast. The 'Scissors' one is called @running with scissors@ its supposed to have a break beat but i'm tweaking the style of it.
Well I'm logged into my Linux box. Ubuntu version and if i could find one of the 15 million players that would stream properly I would listen. But from what I'm hearing the drums are a little much and it may not be what you would want to play on the radio while hanging out with the guys down by the riverside drinking beers and pretending to fish. I am curious though may even log off this piece of crap and boot up XP just to see.
Bottom Line Up Front: D, it's all good. I admire your creativity and the balls to put your tracks out there. I'll send you some of mine when I figure out how.
The first one sounded better when I played it backwards. Number two was pretty good. A little repetitive after 8 minutes, but I liked it. Oh, and it had a good beat and you could dance to it.
Lol, what do you use to create? You could email them to me and I can upload them to the site I am using if you want them accessable by others (its a m8's site, he's lending me a small corner with FTP access and its HTTP linkable) Thats the full mix syndrome, you will usuaully get bored at almost all full/original/12" mixes. Its where the remixes and various edits come from. Some of my latest ones have been full mixes, the 'radio edit' gets chopped out from this long mix, ending up at around 3-4mins.
You know a friend of mine Curtis used to goto a sight and post music he made. He would then send me the link to check out his work. I was thinking the site was AcidLemon.com or something to that effect and I actually looked for it becuase it's full of simular but of course different work. If youare into it you would have liked the site. I do not think its around anymore. You prolly already are aware of others out there however if thats your thing. Curtis was damn good with audio software I think he may have used Vegas or Sound forge or both. We used to use to do "Halo" movies with a frame capture software and he would edit in audio. Just like those Red vs Blue movies just for fun but Curtis's stuff was better I think. And if you know that site is still around post the link will ya?
My old stuff was done on a TASCAM Portastudio 414 on Chromium Oxide tapes. I transferred them to the computer via the mic jack using some old demo guitar tracker software. As a result, it's single channel and sounds bad but I was just trying to save the basic setup to later re-record. I have Adobe Audition on my computer and have toyed with mixing and shaping effects through a ZOOM 1010 multi-effects processor that goes thru the TASCAM and then into the computer. Once I get the audio levels right, I can drop tracks in. If I lay down a good 4-count beat, I can replicate and quantize it digitally without having to play the full song on guitar. My drummer is a ZOOM Rhythmtrack 123 machine. I also mess around with loops that I download and mix up. I want to learn how to lay down the guitar tracks clean and add effects with the software but I haven't experimented much with it yet.
Why did I just get a mental image of a cow with a massive stroke stumbling around in a pasture for hours before finally collapsing and dying of starvation while ants ate away at the inside of it's nose.
