Which version to get - Fruity vs. Producer
Flexstyle replied to Turtle's topic in Music Composition & Production
I made the mistake of starting out on the Fruity version when I first bought FL Studio, back at version 6. While you can indeed simply upgrade, I'd recommend just spending all the money right now--the Fruity version is, in my opinion, a crippled version of FL. Do yourself a favor and buy the Producer version! Worth the extra price for clip-based producing and Slicex alone, IMO. -
OCRA-0021 - THE ANSWER - Armored Core Tribute Album -
Flexstyle replied to djpretzel's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
Finally listened all the way through this one, and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna stick this in the "very awesome" category. Loved it! -
Don't feel bad if you don't have the funds, y'all! I made the pay-scheme this way with full knowledge that people could *gasp* actually get my music without paying for it. It's all about the music, money is only secondary! I must say, though, if you pimp it out to your friends, family, and neighbors, I'd be a very happy man.

"sounds like a crappy Soundblaster" Hmm?

Greetings, Overclocked Remix-Heads! I'd just like to point you over to a brand-spankin'-new album I just released, entitled Eye of the Storm. If you head over to my Bandcamp.com page or simply click on that picture above, you'll be able to obtain it for whatever price you wish to pay. The publicity junk: Eye of the Storm chronicles--in audible and written form--the journey of a brave group of travelers through a mighty tempest. This is the fourth album from Glendale, AZ-based solo electronic artist Flexstyle, featuring a collaboration with up-and-coming Boulder, CO-based house musician (and OC ReMixer) Hollidayrain and a spectacular remix by Norman, OK-based electro producer (also an OC ReMixer) PrototypeRaptor, winner of the Weeping Clouds remix competition. Included as bonus tracks (in the album download) are contest runners-up Moar and The Loopkitchen with their excellent Weeping Clouds remixes, along with a Flexstyle remix of Danish trance producer Airdrift's song "Phoenix," the original of which is available from Dangerbox Recordings. Please download, share with your friends, and enjoy!

How did you come up with your artist name?
Flexstyle replied to adambomb337's topic in General Discussion
I try to be flexible in the styles I create, musically, hence "Flexstyle." -
OCR02159 - Super Meat Boy "mAEt b0y"
Flexstyle replied to djpretzel's topic in ReMix Reviews & Comments
Is it just me, or has the bar for electronica at OCR just been RAISED SKY HIGH? It's about freaking time someone did that! Killer work--one of the most cohesive and punchy mixes, especially electronic, I've heard in a while here. While I'm unfamiliar with the source (I know, I'm a horrible person), this is a completely face-meltingly-awesome mix. Kudos. Plus, it's reminiscent of some of my favorite artists, namely Skrillex and Noisia. -
FWIW, I know SGX has done this sort of thing (releasing free tracks thru iTunes podcasting) with his Protagonist Records site. I think he just uses Wordpress with a podcasting plugin alongside Feedburner to track downloads.

What's your go-to synth?
Flexstyle replied to Kidd Cabbage's topic in Music Composition & Production
Image-Line Harmless and Toxic Biohazard, Wusik.com Wusikstation, and Cakewalk z3ta+. Harmless: Super-phat sounds are really easy to make. Great for deep basses, screaming leads, and those wobblin' dubstep sounds. Toxic Biohazard: Tons of power under the hood. I'm very familiar with it, so I can make nearly any sound I want. Tends to be a bit CPU-hungry, though. Actually, that kinda applies to all my favorite synths.... Wusikstation: I realize this beast has more to it than just the presets, but I have yet to need anything but a quick look through the many banks available to my Wusik.com subscriber's account to find an utterly usable sound. z3ta+: Super-powerful. Older technology, but still one of the most versatile synths ever made. I'd also be remiss if I didn't mention 4Front TruePianos and Garritan Personal Orchestra, my two favorite "real instrument" plugins. -
My album is out! Medicine Lake EP
Flexstyle replied to DrumUltimA's topic in Post Your Original Music!
Phoenix, AZ, here, and the reason I love Bandcamp so much is because I can get ALAC files, which is what the rest of my library is in. -
My album is out! Medicine Lake EP
Flexstyle replied to DrumUltimA's topic in Post Your Original Music!
I would buy the album if it were released for $5 or less on Bandcamp (that's all I can afford at this point). Just sayin'. Loved the one track I heard on BC. -
Yeah, taking a trip to Frys Electronics once I wake up in about 7-8 hours or so. I've got about $600 to spend, so I should be able to find something good.

So....my computer crashed on me. Hopefully I didn't lose much, cos I supposedly had backups going, but I'm not entirely sure how recent the latest one was. I'm out one hard drive and one video card, and I think I'm going to just end up doing a complete system rebuild. The upshot of all that is that I may be a little later completing my tracks than I thought.

Flexstyle replied to zircon's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
Huzzah, it's been released! I'm listening as I type, and there's some fantastic stuff here. Congrats to the Space Whale crew for getting this whole project done and to Andrew for an amazing soundtrack! -
How would ye feel about an IRC channel servermove?
Flexstyle replied to Draconiator's topic in General Discussion
I can't access the #ocremix channel at school. Put me down as endorsing a server switch. -

I'll probably do a lot of work on our track over Thanksgiving break...the only possible time I have right now, haha.
