The MUSIC thread !!!

okay so heres the deal i want to get a discussion going about music making. what type of music you make (if any) and where you influences for it come from. How you make your music (do you use software or play live etc)
Maybe put up somelinks to your own tracks so we can have a listen and give some feed back.

I make drum & bass with influences from rock and hardcore. id put some links to some of the tracks ive made but the would be server i was going to host them on is having some hardware difficulties (ask rundata about those if you want to lol)

I use reason and acid pro mainly for my music making but im starting to introduce some live elements into it using my guitar

 

i dont make music but i use to own music 2000 on my ps1 its a program that allows you to make your own tracks and rip stuff from cds and add it in.me and a friend made a wicked hip hop jungle beat on it.im mainly into rap,dance hip hop or anything else with good loud beats.

 

I've mucked around on Dance Ejay before and made a good beat.

 

i sometimes use virtual dj, and i found an instrumental that works with anything ( LPJZ -- numb/encore [ the instrumental part ] )

!!thecraigc!!

 

edit

 

That MIDI reminds me of the old N64 Zelda game.

 

lol that midi IS from zelda isnt it

 

heh think so.

 

@SypherTek

have you been down to the mp3 lizard at the bottom of the AD forums?
you might get better response from there. there are alot of unsign bands and people trying to get in a band. and do you know about myspace.com?

 

commador 64 game music was the best, CHIP CHOONS YAY!!!

 

I've been playing in (cover) bands for years, i'll see if i have any old DAT tapes around that i can convert to mp3...

 

I mite have a go on hip hop ejay and create some beats

 

what instrument do you play?...and people,please,no lame skin flute jokes.

ive been kicking around on guitar and drums for a few years. i havent gotten serious about either mainly because ive been moving around alot and most places and people i lived with wouldnt tolerate the noise.

 

what style of music do you make?

i usually put out basic threed chord kind of stuff. im still an amateur so cut me some slack.:S i can also kick out some beats on the drums but never could practice my timing enough. people just dont give drummers any place to practice.

i have an Aria Pro II guitar. its not top of the line but its decent. i have a small little generic amp and i have no effect pedals or anything like that. my drum kit is a cheap 5 peice (Sunlite). it gets the job done except the bass pedal is a peice of shit. and i only have one cymbal besides the hi-hat cymbals. you could say im a recreational musician,i guess.

 

Ive finally started construction of my website so ill be hosting my tunes on there pretty soon.

i havent changed the site much from the original template yet as i only started playing with it last night but if you look in the downloads section there is one track available for download.

the style of this track is drum n bass but ill be putting up some clubhouse and possibly some more genres (depending on how creative im feeling)

have a listen and give me your feedback. (in this thread not on my site at least not yet anyway)
