Greetings TA's,

I've been making trance music for longer than you have, but I'm still not very good at it! So I am looking to "hire" a trance producer to help me with mixing, programming drums and making solid basslines. This position requires working knowledge of The Thrillseekers, Ferry Corsten, Chicane, and optionally Gabriel & Dresden. Applicants must possess a degree in Sidechain Compression from the U of Prydz and/or The Benassi Pumphonia Institute. The ideal candidate is pursuing a masters at BT's Nu School of Breakbeats.

Responsibilities include making basslines, putting effects on my synths, and making my drums not suck, usually by replacing them with your own. Sometimes I'll just want you to help me make whatever I'm working on sound like Carte Blanche. It would be helpful (but not necessary) if you use some of the same gear as me (list below)

This would be kinda like a collaboration except I will pay you "whatever you're worth" until "my money runs out" or "you stop sending me cool shit" (terms are entirely flexible/in advance/paypal) If you're interested PM me on TA with the following and I will let you know right away

- your sequencer
- matching gear list (see below)
- URL to your website

Gear List
Sonar 6
JP8080 (Presets Vengeance Xplorations 1+2, Xplorations 3)
SuperNova II (Presets: Vengenace Blue)
NI Battery 3
CamelSpace 1.4
dBlue Glitch
AutoTune 4
Antares Filter
*ReFX Nexus (Expansions: Vengeance)
*Waves Diamond Bundle 4
*V-Station (Presets: Vengeance)
*FabFilter Timeless

What!? That's the most enjoyable part of making the track -- choosing the drum sounds, making bassline, and making love to my synths via the mixer.


Dooood... just admit that you can't produce and go back to playing WoW.

No I'm fairly serious. The commission offer is to attract a bigger talent than the people I normally work with.

Exactly.

Personally I enjoy writing the lyrics/vocal melody, recording & comping the vocal parts, writing the hook, building the song structure, laying down some acoustic guitar or piano, adding harmonies and backing tracks, choosing instrumentation, programming the synths and automating their params then my favorite is automating sends to RGs and delays.

Nice...

Some people don't realise many (big) names/producers have their sound designers and helping hands for a few $$$.

It's very common actually. Don't know why people are laughing about that.

Of course
We operate similarly at times at our work, we do the overall design for something, we hire someone else to do all the tech stuff and content, same thing as this..
