I made a chill musix recently that you should probably listen to. Most likely.

In all seriousness, I am looking to make some more calm, melodic music in the future. If you like that sort of stuff, stay tuned. :)

WHat Software are you using to make music? Do you record your stuff or do you generate sounds using synths and stuff? 

 

I myself tried out FL Studie 11 but oh dear, complicated ...

I mostly use REAPER, which has an unending trial version with no limitations (I am planning to buy it at some point, though!) and is very intuitive. It doesn't come with much for plugins to start with, but it is easy enough to find free instruments and effects around the net.

 

I have FL as well, and while I can use it, it's workflow seems unnecessarily complicated, so I just use REAPER.

 

Also, fun fact! My samples folder is currently: 25.2GB!  :teehee:

New music! I collaborated with someone, and we held a remix contest. This is the original track plus the three winner's tracks.

Sorry to sound like a complete ass but....

 

I just find the amount of links, plugs and such totally enraging. It's like every time I see one of your posts you're personally commanding me to go listen to your music. I understand you want to get your music heard and I also understand this is extremely irrational, I suppose it stems from scrolling down into YouTube comment sections to find literally a fuzzy bunny-tonne of self advertisment and the seething rage I feel after seeing them. Don't take this personally or anything, I just wanted to get this rant of my chest. 

 

yadda yadda yadda, rant rant rant. 

 

Call me a pr1ck if you want, I won't blame you. It's just a personal hate of mine.

I understand what you're getting at - it annoys me too. And for that reason, I try my best to not overshare. I post my link once (several times spread around different social media and sites, but only once per site) and leave it at that. I'm not fishing for views or likes or anything. I post them because some people enjoy what I make - but they are unaware of new content unless I set it before them.

 

I also recognize that, while I am improving, I am nowhere near a professional level. Even if I don't always specifically say so, I'm open to feedback. Unfortunately, I don't get much of that by just letting it sit on SoundCloud.

 

Believe me, I could be FAR more annoying (and I used to be!), but I don't really think my current link-sharing-activities call for such a status.

 

EDIT: That being said, a large part of an artist's upkeep is having their content seen by the public eye. Art isn't created to sit in a dark basement where nobody can enjoy it. My solution? Don't click the topic if you don't like it. I hope you understand my point of view on the matter.

He means nujabes, a Japanese DJ/composer/arranger who made really awesome chill music.  One of my personal favorite artists in music, here's one of his songs:

 

Also, where do you get your sources in instruments and effects?  Been having a hard time finding a good one.

Wow, that is nice! Great stuff there.

 

As for FX/instruments, I have just Googled 'n gained over time. Some of the ones I consider my favorites/must-haves are:

 

Instruments:

Scythe (Basic synthesizer with an awesome randomizer. Great for making really weird, complex sounds. Be wary, though - it's best to randomize with the volume way down, because it randomizes the volume knob too! XD)

dirty harry (Digital atari-like synthesizer, makes some sweet sounds.)

Any and all free DSK Music instruments (modeled after real-world orchestral instruments, plus some synths and things.)

Alchemy Player free version (buncha presets with knobs to adjust them - good for when you're in a musical bind!)

Addictive Keys Free & Addictive Drums Free (Realistic pianos and drums. Limited options in the free version, but still good.)

mda Piano (Works well with some nice reverb. Can go higher octaves than Addictive Keys Free.)

 

FX:

Frohmage (Weird filter-thingy FX. Hard to describe what it does, just get it. XD)

epicVerb (Good reverb/ambience.)

Ambience (Another good reverb plugin. Get both, they sound a bit different in many cases.)

REDEQ (Only three knobs on an EQ?! Sounds like a bad idea, but it is in fact very good!)

Replika (Delay plugin that can be used for ambience/pads/large spacious sounds. I got this for free in a Christmas special, but you'd have to pay for it. Very good, though.)

Hysteresis & Fracture (Glitch plugins for making things weird. Can be found at glitchmachines.com.) 

 

As for samples (I'll provide links here, as they will be easier to find)...

Glitchmachines Packshttp://www.glitchmachines.com/shop/

Musicradar (TONS here!): http://www.musicrada...d-multis-217833

99sounds (very high quality): http://99sounds.org/

Freesound (random stuff): http://freesound.org

 

I also use several of the effects/plugins that come with the program I use (REAPER). Those you'd have to have REAPER for. They're nothing special, though - pretty generic. Anyway, I hope this helps! :)

I'm curious. Since I have met a couple of musicians like you, when do you have your 'creative phase'? Like, everyone I've asked told me he/she has a creative phase ... sometimes 2am or saturday afternoon or when riding a horse (?).

 

What's yours?

 

 

PS: Why don't you post your tracks in the music to the people thread? >:O It's one of my playlists lol.

I don't really have one, lol. I just open up a music program if I'm in the mood to make music and start fiddling around (no pun intended, lol). Occasionally I'll have an idea beforehand, but rarely does anything I make spawn from an idea or inspiration I had while doing something. The monologue in this track (at 0:36) basically describes what I'm trying to say. ;)

 

As for the second question, I don't post there 'cause it feels more like shameless self-promotion, whereas this just feels like me sharing with the community. People come here fully knowing they're going to get my stuff. Not necessarily true with the other topic.
