That's something a lot of people easily accomplish by themselves. I think.

FPC doesn't have to only be used for drums. hint hint

I like it, reminds me of Beyond Good & Evil a little bit. It works well enough for background listening. The problem with ambient music is you're not supposed to really "pay attention" to it. That makes it a little difficult to give proper feedback. I only heard some birds, guitar and flute, which I suppose is ok enough :3

I can hardly contain myself （ ´Д｀） Actually I was gonna change a few things about the song to make it even more Massive Attackey, but go ahead and comment on the first draft because it's not going to be much different.

There's a song in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. that sounds like something Jill would sing. Anyone who can actually play the game should know what I'm talking about, since it's the one song on the radio :] I've never played a Civ game before D:!. Civ IV is good rite?

We love lackluster. I am downloading this immediately :3

You can call me Miyagi. I don't think this is an FL problem, just that you don't "understand" music yet. If you have no understanding of the instrument you're using, you can't exactly express yourself through it. Kind of like speaking Russian with a tourist dictionary. The best way to let your emotions show through your music is to learn an instrument. Since you want to focus on dnb/jungle/idm, I think I'll suggest that you study the drums, and dabble a little bit in piano so you at least have some kind of melody. This should be very important down the road, with a little experience you'll be able to express yourself more clearly. Your hero is now , though I can teach you anything you'd need to know about FL Studio.

DJP said somewhere that he won't be doing this forever I forget where but yeah I dunno hand it over to Joe Redifer lol （´∀｀）

Yes, that way is the only way I think you can also do parallell different time signatures for a trippy rhythmic experience

get earbuds, they're particularly loud

Yep! OR you could save up a thousand dollars or so, and get one of these sexy beasts instead.

I do, but like I said I want to redo it, so perhaps you will see it.... I dunno. When VGMix 3 comes.

Wicked soundtracks: Agile Warrior F-111X [too obscure for anyone, really] Descent 2 [probably the closest thing to that Chaos Field OST] Silent Thunder: A-10 Tank Killer II Decap Attack Toejam & Earl 1&2 Anything written by Hubbard ever These may not be the things you're looking for exactly but they're still wicked, and hahaha only Decap Attack is even Japanese.

teehee I forgot it was there oh well

BEEN THERE DONE THAT Though I want to try it again because my mixing techniques are a lot more elaborate. But yeah feel free to do that sometime in the future, we need more Deus Ex remix.

No you haven't. I only gave it to Larry so far and I'm STILL WAITING FOR FEEDBACK LARRY OJI WTF R U DOIN

Expect a few to come with the Tim Follin project. I made a remix of Akrilic （´∀｀）

Yeah that's how I got the idea. Love that spoof BTW I was gonna throw those polygons into the audience like normal bands do with inflatable balls, and maybe set a cube on fire.

Sometimes I have fantasies of playing live shows, like performing the entire demo, complete with stage props.you have no idea how awesome this looks inside my head

Looks like RE to me!

I'm just going to start linking .sids http://se2ai.net/HVSC/MUSICIANS/R/Randall/Ill_Be_a_Pimp_in_Cabrini_G.sid this is a cool song though

Carbunk1e/Xaleph is happily married now with a cute little toddler. The other people I know are married are Fray, Legion303 and Daknit [at least, Daknit had a kid with his girlfriend, I can't remember if they got married or not]. RasutoIbuki, an AR admin is getting married soon too. So many people...

I think at my core, what I do is borrow techniques from others or discover completely new ones on my own when just dicking around. I don't really do exercises, though I bet if I did I'd probably get bored with scales and mess around with them. Maybe having ADD helps. Your own style is something that develops or changes over time. I don't think I've ever actually TRIED being derivative, a lot of my music is still just accidents that happen while experimenting. I don't really go into my sequencer expecting many specific things to pan out. You said you're big into jazz so I dunno why you can't just pull something out of your ass like I do . Being a perfectionist might be hurting you more than helping, especially when it comes to realism of sampled instruments. Keeping down this path, you'd really only be halfway satisfied after spending lots and lots of money. The best thing I can tell you to do right now is to join a compo, on IRC or in the forums [nobody reads the "competitions" section, I guess] because there are lot of 1 week or 1 month [or one hour!] compos that will force you to develop speed-writing skills, and how to "critically think" about your music in a short amount of time. That'll force you to abandon any perfectionist qualities and soon you'll just be able to write. Enough compos and you'll make MIDI sound like this without even thinking about it. Of course not many compos are MIDI anymore but lol nario!!!!!!111
