  1. I was in high school when I got my first job, but my dad was always the provider of video games so up until that point I just came to him with requests. I'm not sure which came first, the PlayStation or the N64, but a friend of mine had me try FF7 on his PS and I rented a N64 with Pod Racer and Mario 64. I quickly realized that 3D graphics and camera controls were a sin and a perversion of video games, so I just quit. Few years later, near the end of the PS2 era, games caught my attention again. The first video game I ever bought with my own money was KotOR. Fell in love with it, bought KotOR II, a PS2 and Dragon Quest VIII. Good games. Then last week I bought Sekiro. Haven't played it yet. The end.
  2. @RamaniscenceI was ready to go! But...stuff. Banks and the new year. What could I do?
  3. DJP's Gerudointerlude and Prot's Brainsick Metal brought me here. Snappleman, melody (xxrisingforcexx?), Ailsean, house, Fishy, goat, pud..pretty much all the guitarists from shizzies, they put me in my place really quickly. It's was very humbling. Overtime I became a huge fan of zircon, Willrock, bgc, Blind
  4. This album is pretty amazing. The title "Colors" is pretty fitting, I think. Plus, it's reeeeally fun to improvise over when you're trying to improve your guitar playing
  5. You can probably count me in at that point.
  6. I can't really help you but I seriously hope you can figure out how to get past those feelings. There's so much talent in this community and it's always so cool when someone from here goes past remixing for OCR and composes for a game or a TV show, or starts a successful business creating and selling sample libraries, or ends up performing at Video Games Live or MAGFest. All of these things! I really hope that'll be you, too. I'm not a composer like most of these people. I couldn't create anything original to save my life. All I could ever do was make silly remixes and I don't even do that anymore. The only thing I've done in several years is finally finish a remix I started a long time ago. And I really wish I hadn't. It honestly feels like I've actually made the world worse for putting my "music" out there. Just calling it "my music" makes me cringe. There's a voice in my head that says "your music? Please. Just who do you think you are? Come back down to Earth." I just started my first solo album but I'll probably never finish it. Can't seem to make it past "this is really dumb and nobody's going to like this." So pretty much all I do now is contribute things to other people's music. Guitar parts and things like that. Over the years, I've amassed a large collection of all kinds of samples. Particularly drums! So I offer to help people with things like that too. It helps me stay at least a little relevant to this community, which is all I really want.
  7. Love your work!

    I covered one of your tracks.

    Hard stuff man,

      Great stuff! Willrock actually linked me to this a few days ago.

  8. Dat legato! I've always loved Holdsworth. Yeah, he's capable of playing some complex stuff, but it's still always easy to follow and tap my foot to.
  9. This looks great! I've been dying to play a new 3D platformer.
  10. Sixto Sounds - I have many favorite tracks and artists, but you may just take the cake. At very least, you take a very, very large piece of it. After a survey of my iTunes library, I found that of all my favorite artists, you take second place for "most total songs that are totally badass", and first place for "highest concentration of songs that are totally badass" (p<.05 thanks for being a scientifically provable total badass.>
