And the Journey Begins...


With all the free time I've had lately, I've really been able to sit down and get to work on Fruity Loops. I'm sure the people that have been reading along are wondering what the studio looks like itself, so I've decided to link some pictures from the internet so you can view the work station. (This is not MY work, I'll hopefully have some screens of my songs later on.)


A Great Find

After checking my comments, I had noticed someone wanted me to review a website. It's very hard to find good websites that are in English, but this was a great find. The name of the website is http://techno.org/electronic-music-guide/; a website with a plethora of information on any type of dance themed music. There are also great samples, instrumentals, and ideas for starting music. This site is useful for anyone with any level of knowledge.

Finally Learning.....


This weekend was my first truly indepth look into the world of Fruity Loops. Fruity Loops Studio is a professional studio set up on your computer. It is EXTREMELY complicated (at least for someone like myself) and learning how to use and sequence instrumentals seems like an impossible task. I also began chopping samples, but I still don't have a hold of a nice MIDI keyboard so sampling is also a difficult task.
P.S. If anyone has an MPC for sale CHEAP...leave me a post, I'm very interested in getting a hold of one.
