  1. Stepped completely away from it for a few weeks. Some times I get burnt out trying so hard to satisfy myself musically. Picked up the guitar today for a couple of hours... sounded so good
  2. Got in a short round of practice on a handful of songs on my old guitar. Tweaked one of the better techno/house songs I've been working on... as well a few others of other styles. Getting way more familiar with my DAW, my workflow, and getting better at making things sound better. YouTube has proven helpful.. it's pretty darn amazing actually... the wealth of info people share. Looking forward to having plenty of good music to show for it soon. Here's one of my first techno releases... a pretty basic but nice sounding jam. Not a finished piece... but I'm finished with it ha ha... a fun little demo. Enjoy... https://soundcloud.c...roit-ride-check
  3. Been spending a bit of time on the IDM forums (Electronic music.. techno,house,etc.) and working on that genre.... but not neglecting the others styles .. workin' on my chops.
  4. Had a tremendous DJ set last night! Rocked the house!
  5. Nice .. different angles help to keep things in perspective... I mic'd and recorded some live raggedy drum sounds in a big open reverby space... and a few other industrial steel sounds. Captured some video of it too. For a special project I've had in mind for a while now....
  6. Went to a techno DJ show... Kevin Saunderson and Derrick May. Learned a bit more about "rockin' the crowd"
  7. I practiced mastering down a "song in progress" to find a balance between being as loud as other recorded music and still having dynamics. About 15 mixes and I think I'm getting closer add: Also tried writing some lyrics to the music. Not my normal process.. I usually write lyrics and music in tandem.
  8. We may not always have a finished song to post or specific topic to discuss.. so this is a good thread (very popular on other forums) to just comment on what you did with or for your music today. I think it's helpful for others to get a better understanding of what makes musicians/artists tick.
  9. "Grime" ... I had to look that one up lol... still not sure I get it but I might end up dabbling soon
  10. yes... Polyurethane actually same stuff as used for skateboard wheels. The Detroit Rock Climbing Company http://www.TheDRCC.com
  11. ... most styles of music were pop once... and most of them are still around now.
  12. I design and make climbing holds... I'm a world famous professional sculptor... of sorts.
  13. (2 months later) I use and like Ableton LIve Really only just getting the hang of it now though. I know it well on the surface... and also that it goes much much deeper.
  14. Welcome to the forums djax :)
