Looking for insight amongst the audibly talented.
I've been editing, sampling and engineering music from "scratch" for a few years now. I'm a closet producer (amateur). It is only a hobby, don't
plan on making any type of "profit ventures" out of it.
I mostly work with instrumentals in alternative hip hop sounds, or ambient electronic sounds.
I only work with one program right now and it sucks. FL-Studios 7 ( i tried to upgrade to 8 and it didn't work out) When I get back to the states
I'm getting an Akai MPC, and will be working with that. I hear getting an Apple is a good investment. Me and a friend both have the same taste and
will be collaborating on some things in the future.
Havn't messed with the turntables and mixing, but It sounds like something I could get into
Feel free to share any tips, stories, or suggestions for equipment, or even some good bands out there.
Some good music: - Thievery corporation, Mark Farina, DJ shadow, Amon Tobin, sound providers, K-murdock, headnodic
