  1. Use tricks learned in industrial: sample anything and everything and then distort the fuck out of them. Though, to have the more bizarre sounds, use electronic drums distorted supported with various industrial sounds (hums, clanks and thumping.) In black metal, only use distortion as a touch on the acoustic drums, not cranking it up. You want them to have clarity so you can actually make it out over the chugging guitars.

    The rhythms also use triplet-sixteenths for the blast beats.

  2. I would say that eurobeat goes right between trance and techno. About figuring out about harmony and chords and stuff, there is no way you can just learn that from other persons. But it's possible to help you, and give you some advice. Here's my best advice for you:

    Spend some time everyday finding the right chords for different melodies and make some remixes of them. Doing that you'll automatically learn how to find the right chords and you'll start understanding the whole thing.

    Eurobeat is more closer to house than techno. Just nitpicking here. In fact it is more house than trance.

  3. STOP CALLING IT TECHNO!!!!

    No, we are actually talking about techno here.

    I hope you're kidding because the differences between Breaks, Techno, and Hip-Hop are huge, as I've already pointed out.

    It would be a fallacy to say that techno beats are any less complex than hiphop or breakbeats.

  4. heh viola. I concur. After 7 years of playing it, I personally prefer its sound over the violin's. Sure, people might crack jokes at you for being a violist (since most violists suck), but if you enjoy it, then who cares.

    Violist Revolution!

    >.>

    Yeah, I haven't touched a viola in 12 years.

  5. First instrument: Electric Organ - 1988-1989

    Didn't know what I was soing and just liked hitting those keys. I learned to despise the big red button. I will always hate the big red button. I also hate test tones for some reason too.

    Started remixing: around 2002 or so. I made a remix of Clash at Demonheads when I barely knew what the hell electronic music was. At that point I was in the transition from being saddened that I would never have an orchestra to play my music and making my music specifically for computers.
