There are probably plenty of blogs about this, but i just need to mention it. I had an old laptop laying around (IBM T43), which i installed Windows 7 on, and honestly. This laptop just got a new life :).
Dont have a clue about how its with music creation, but i must recon its miles better then vista. Anyway, OS X is my tool when it comes to sequencing. But maybe in the future i can build a pc with windows 7 that i can use with my creamware cards :).
My “studio” is a mess atm. Chaning job and stuff leaves my music gear, ideling. Hopefully i will get back as soon as my life goes back to a normal pace.
btw. www.psy-works.net will be ressurected as soon as i get to an new workplace. It was located at my last company workplace.
We are currently living with packet bags at my parents house. And we are going to continue with that for one more week, before we take over the new house. Monday 2. march.
We er looking forward to this, because it will give us a great increase in space. With a room which i can use for studio/home office. That will be just great for creativity.
TG09 is comming up, and music tasks are stacking up. Needing to create music for combined demo, 4k intro, make some “framework” for the FastIntro. And also build up some sample lib to use on TG, which i can access quickly.
Comming back with more track i hope..
check out darkcodex.net for progress around tg09 work
The other day i actually came across a news that told me that google had released its old search-index from 2001.
So i took a dive and searched for my old nick/artist name, which was Dj Fathir
I took the name, because it sounded goaish.. and all the cool trance duds had “dj” in their name.. which i didn’t understood was because they actually where dj’s.
As for me, i had never touched a turntable or a dj mixer.. (which is also the current status of my dj career)
The Tracks are not downloadable, but i should have them somewhere around, so please feel free to request them
Well, as an a tempt of bringing revolution to the gaming industry a friend of my (digitalerr0r) have created Grillsimulator 2008 for xbox (which translate to BBQ Simulator 2008). I got the glorious task of creating game music.. in under 5 hours.. (dang.. i love rush).. so i create The BBQ Song together with my wife.
Not too much to say about it, the ahh’ing is done by Maria. I like the touch. But i am not that satisfied with the whole composition. but instead of starting over, i finished the track, so i can start over with blank sheets.
The drums are heavy done on the emu, the same with all the bases. Mostly nova sampled direct into the emu. Vandetta - Sticky Pineapple
Well.. after gotten som inspration on youtube, i wanted to check out how the korg z1 would do the vangelis lead used in chariots of fire and blade runner (you know.. the yummyha cs80 lead )..
anyway.. here is what i got after probably a hour work
Well.. long time no see.. stuff have happend..
one of the thing is that i traded in the MC909 against a korg Z1.. why you might as!
because the sampler part (which was the main reason for getting it) was to simple for me.. i need something in the emu league… Akai mpc whould probably do it.. but the price is out of reach.. PLUSS i wanted a good keyboard to push.
Anyway.. here is a patch i dialed up while playing with the korg z1.. and i must admit that this synth is rather impressive.. you can do so much.. and it has such a big sound range!
