New member saying hi etc...

Hello guys, I'm new around here and wanted to say hi. I wasn't sure which forum section would be best to post for the first time so I figured that here was the safest bet.

My back-story and why I'm here : I've always loved to make music and I started my dabbling a long time ago on FL Studio 3. I started with remixing old game midi's and moved into trying to actually make music of my own. Unfortunately I had to take a break from this newfound music hobby, as life took it's course. Now I've decided that I really want to take up trance production seriously and stick with it.

So here I am, taking the next logical step. I figured it was a good idea to start getting into the trance community and seeing what I could learn / contribute.

A little about myself : I'm 23, currently a student in Mechanical Engineering at Metro State of Denver.

Music background : I've played the Cello since I was 10 and had private lessons until I was 21. My music theory background is zilch, but I have (in my humble opinion ^^) a good enough set of ears, natural feel for music and the love of trance. My inspirations are numerous but Ronald Jenkees, Armin Van Buuren and Paul Van Dyk are among a few.

Current Gear : YamahKX61 midi controller, Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro headphones, FL Studio 9 XXL and a creative X-FI platinum Soundcard.

I've also started doing research into Cubase and Pro-tools, but I won't have the money to afford them for a semester or two.

Favorite top-3 trance sub-genre's are : Progressive, Dance and Uplifting.

I have a couple tracks I'm actively working on, with one nearing completion. I would love to share and see what you guys think but I couldn't find any blatant resource on a recommended method for music sharing.

post some clips of you playing the celo. From there we will decide if you are good enough to make it as a trance producer.

Such a rookie mistake to make.

Surely there must be dance trance?!

But honestly, yeah sorry, the genre and sub-genre thing is out of hand and I haven't had my breakfast yet ^^. (Although that sub looks tasty, I might stop by subway on my way to school this morning...see, you guys are already giving me helpful input)

I have an old mediafire link of my All-State orchestra audition so bash away at my horrid playing ^^. I was 16 when this was recorded.

I placed 7th chair out of 20, so not too bad I suppose.
