bio for what? Hi, I don't have any links sadly, but I did a University course on the Pop Music Industry, and they got us to make bios, so maybe I can help (got an A for mine :D :D ). It really depends on who you're sending it to. Is this just a general bio to go in press kits and to send...

this is cool - I like the banging toms I found no fault with the mix, but then I'm no expert. I especially liked the little melodic break near the end - maybe this could happen once more near the start of the track to break it up? very cool tho - is it to standalone or to put vocals/rhymes over...

nice . . . Hey, very nice song my friend. I don't mean to repeat others, but it really DOES sound like Neil Young (with Crazy Horse, of course yuk yuk). I like the ripping lead guitar and the organs do provide a nice contrast with the dum-dum guitar strum and rhythm section. Lyrically, it...

but this is the point I'm kind trying to raise - that Western music/songwriting is defined by it's melody, whereas music from other cultures/places comes from a completely different place. you can't copyright a rhythm because the law says so . . . not that I'm saying we should completely...

of course not - unless you suck . . . nah, I joke of course

I'm looking at a couple of different soundcards at the moment. I want to record guitar and vocals, and probably a bass or 2 (although this could be done through software), over-dubbing all parts as it's just me on my own. My motherboard has a built in soundcard, but I'm not sure of the quality...

agreed. so DJ Danger Mouse was probably a bad example (it was just the ifrst that popped to mind as he has been in the media lately). the creator of the original music should always be credited and compensated for the sound. however, the suggestion that a DJ doesn't have to LEARN or PRATICE to...

thanks hey wow thanks neon glow - that does sound really great - I might try James' Google idea though as I'm short on lira at this point. but thanks for the suggestions - damn that edirol one sounds great

and isn't it the same with artits who DON'T sample their music? I would think the hit rate would be better no sampled music as you're working with stuff that's been proven to be good . . . don't get me wrong - puff daddy and his ilk have brought some atrocities to the scene - his "remake" of...

the XP CD I have has MSCDEX.EXE on it. I think you're right though. I've got a mate who has the same mobo as me so he is going to check his BIOS settings against mine (he loaded his XP the same way and it worked fine). Failing that, I guess it's back to the retailer . . . if this is a faulty...

like I say at the top I tried it with windows 98 and its not co-operating. so I'm pretty sure it's not the disk

ok, quick question time. can anyone reccomend a good (realistic) program for creating string sections amd horn sections? any suggestions or points in the right direction appreciated indeed :D

sorry, I misread your post - I am trying to boot off the CD as it is a brand new computer and I have no floppy drive. what do I have to do?

windows xp

hi, quick question all, anyone know a program that will give good (realistic) brass and string sounds/samples? preferably easy to use, but hey, I can learn . . . :) thanks

yeah, right on - has anyone ever heard DJ Kid Koala's stuff? if that ain't creating new music I don't know what is. I mean, do you credit the guy who created the guitar when you play it on a record - better yet, do you credit the guitar? after all, ut's making the noise, not you. there's an...

hi, I got an awesome response to my last post on this board so I thought I'd ask you guys again :D I have finally got my hardware up and running but now the software is trippin me up!! :mad: ok, maybe I'm stupid, but here's my problem. I can't get windows xp to boot on my system. I have...

everybody in the place to be, I've noticed lately that a lot (or all) of the discussions we have on songwriting centre around the creation of melody and chord prgressions. "well, duh" I hear you mumble at your screen, but we are forgetting a large part of whatr music is all about - the bass and...

I don't really have anything much to add. Just wanted to back upo what "leavings" is saying - there will always be times when you suck, you just have to work on through it bro

stupid hey guys, thank you all for the suggestions - it's good to know the support is there because I will surely need it in the future . . :o turns out noiseportrait was right - it was a CPU problem. I, bein' a clutz, had broken the CPU fan when attaching the heatsink. the manual said to use...
