djpsi: you forgot a little talent. hehehe

but that sounds hopeful for my future


Posted by b0bb0 on May-18-2001 21:12:

im not even that interested in making djing my life or becoming big and famous

i just wanna be good enough to spin at local clubs and maybe some places around the state


here in jacksonville florida that goal seems very reachable at the age of 18

Hey, does anyone use tracker software like Modplug-Tracker?
It's very good to start with to get some practice in producing. And the quality is what you make of it: what the quality of your samples is etc.
To make it sound less 'computer-like' you can use cooledit to brush your track up and add some delay, reverb etc.
It's a nice alternative for those who haven't got the money for pro-equipment.

Smoking ..umm..something

I wouldn't mind being the next Mauro Picotto either...

But frankly i like spinning in the local scene. I have been spinning for 2 years, and frequent all the local clubs. I guess i kind of do want to make it big, but i kind of don't. And all you other local club DJ's out there know what i mean....

Exclamation

Sorry, Missed out on this thread...
I thought about doing the same thing.
I'v got mad ideas about making a song. But when it comes to putting all of these Ideas in a song..that's the process that pisses me off due to the shitty equipment of mine (Yamaha DJX), and a bunch of programs. I would love to produce Trance, but you can't make a song (like pvd or tiesto) using some program....tried...u need to have a PERFECT temper

I know him... he is a friend (and recently a co-webmaster) of the webmaster of the most popular internet radio, www.digitallyimported.com ... when i heard that guy's mixes about 3 months ago, his technique was totally ridiculous and lame. maybe he has progressed incredibly since, but i already lost my interest to his mixes.


Posted by SeeK on Jun-05-2001 04:44:

where to start??? Well firstly who wouldnt wanna be a big world wide known DJ??? I would like to get my own style happening like PvD Picotto and Yahel to name some... eg like when someone hears my track they will know its me straight away! if ya know what i mean!

Problems i have with Producing is i cant get long synths happening, and bending of samples, dont know if ya'll know what i mean, but yeah... =P i got some idea's which i think r ok! ive produced 2 tracks to date, nothing big, but my friends that have heard them thought they were ok! i guess it all comes down to FUNDING!!!

Some one let me know, i dont know shit about key's on the piano or anything like that, i dont think these are essential but may help, plz give sum feedack!

Smiley DJ Expectations!

I have a lot of expectations, and obviously one of those expectations are to make it big in the trance seen. I was involved in music almost 4 years ago, now I'm 15 and I'm beginning in the DJ'n. I want to be the next PVD. I know that it is very hard but I'm going to work hard for it!!


Posted by Max2LC on Jun-06-2001 22:38:

Wink

Well Transcemi...
I'm 13 right now....almost 14. I'v been listening to trance since 10. and DJ'n since 11.
YOU GONNA HAVE TO COMPETE AGAINST ME =)))HEHE YOU'LL BE PVD..I'LL BE TIESTO =))))))

Yesterday I finally had time to mess with cubase 5. I was a bit overwelmed by the amount of options that it offers. BS-- actually that programed spanked me hard,,, way too many options!!!! I need like a tutorial on it or something. I guess it would be phat to make it big. For me, crativity is not a problem. I feel that it just takes a lot of work. Lots of time. But, after a while, just like anything, you will be able to produce songs in not that long of a time. I think I read some interview about Airwave, where he mentioned producing some songs in only about a day, and that he didn't like the way they sounded, but then he woke up the next day and he fulled around with the track some more, and then it sounded great. Some people just have a natural talent (kinda like drawing).

I don't even mix with tables or have any actual equipment. I do all my mixing on the PC using mixvibes. It's really cool how PC software has progressed. I really don't think that you need pro equipment to produce an excellent trance song, but you might need some pro software.

after one whole year, this thread comes back at ya

hey, found this thread when i was looking for a Cubase tutorial. yea i do want to produce music and i'm working my way towards that goal: gonna study Recorded Music Production in college next year, and if i'm good enough, i wanna get into the ACM College (Academy of Contemporary Music) in Guildford, England.

anyhow, it's my dream to become an electronic music producer. not really for money and fame (although they could be a nice extra ), it's just that i feel that i can do it like Hybrid, Oliver Lieb, and BT do. even tho my musical background is next to zero, i can sometimes come up with pretty neat melodies or beats in my head (kinda like Tranzmit i guess. bit less these days 'cos i'm learning DJ'ing, and making my first demo mix tape), it's just a shame that i know jackshit about music theory and software (which i'll learn next year in college), so i still can't write down my ideas on, say, Cubase, Buzz or Reason. Peter i dunno if your offer is still valid after one whole year, and if it is, i'd be eager to learn from you. and thanks again for the soft synth thread, i installed Waldorf Attack and Pentagon because of it. (still haven't gotten around to learn them tho, i'm learning DJ'ing at the moment)

so what i'm planning to do, is to produce trance tunes, which i can use as gap fillers, and release some of them if they're good enough. all i have for music production is an Athlon 1.3GHz laptop w/ 256mb RAM, loaded with Cubase SX, Wavelab, a good handful of soft synths, 5gb of samples. just FYI.

thank you for reading,

hahahahahahahaha this is really mean but does anyone else find this thread stupid... maybe you should consider making it big in the grammer department first sonny jim

even though my grammer is probably the worse on the board hehe


Posted by Dhagor on Sep-19-2002 11:48:

DJ Juno: The name Doboy is familiar ... once heard him live on DI.fm and it was absolutely amazing !!!

About 'making it big in the scene' ... one has to have enourmous bunch of talent and enourmous bunch of LUCK!. I wouldn't mind to be the next PvD but who knows... "life is like a box of chocolates"

i know wat u guyz mean, once u get started humming/thinking the tune in ur head... the tune keeps going as well and u just think how mad it is, (well i think newayz) yeh, i would luv to be a good producer, but not for fame, just for the love of trance and love of good music, but i must be the furtherest behind when it come to technology, my comp must be 6 years old... Pentium 1, 2 gigz only!! and God knows how fast this thing can go, *sigh*


Posted by P`zazz on Sep-21-2002 16:31:

I want to get into production as well but don't know how, I want to create the music the I love so much


Posted by Greedy on Sep-22-2002 21:13:

I imagine being a producer and a dj at the same time is very difficult to juggle. If youre busy going to gigs at night making a name for yourself, you wouldnt have all that much time to produce and vice versa.
But if you still want to do it, u could always start off with a beat machine, a nice keyboard, mixer, effects machines, some good software, tables (duh!), and some really nice speakers.
Then after youre done making a track, you can get it pressed to vinyl and spin it at a club and see how it turns out. Dont send every song you make to a label without getting plenty of crowd approval. People will stop taking you seriously if you send too many mediocre stuff.


Posted by Acid Circus on Sep-24-2002 17:02:

I would like to become a big producer, I can see it happening within the next 5 years if I keep working hard at it, I am making some good sounds but as yet I am unable to make a complete tune that I am happy with. And I won't release a tune or let others hear my work until I am completely happy with it.

As for DJ'ing, I am running my own club night where I am resident along with a good DJ friend. I am going to be playing alongside Flutlicht in December making me reach another personal goal which I have set myself. This time next year I hope to be big in Scotland!


Posted by migitymike on Sep-24-2002 17:19:

..i didnt read this whole thread..
so if i get off topic so sorry..heres a cookie for your troubles

but yes..i want to make it big in the trance scene. more as a dj..then a producer. but u gotta produce to get known..i know this
but i feel so at home behind the decks. I already have a residency at a hot club..only after spinning after a year. i have picked it up very fast..and im good. not good to where every mix is like bam..right there..perfect and smooth. but i have the skills and knowledge of how to get myself out of trouble. like if records start slipping..i dont freak out..and not know which way to correct them.
i just have this feeling that its going to work out..and it will happen...
