/\ NO, he is just a guy with a BF. Doesn't mean he is gay. =]

lol, but seriously, dude has given me some better advice than anyone on this forum with his ability to be unbiased in his opinions. With my recent purchase of the Xiosynth for example.

I'm gay as ... damn for once i wish i was on bayraves, they have this one emoticon that expresses my gayness...

and good choice for the xio... as i said it's very simple, but there's this one sub bass patch on it that is effin amazing (though i still use tau pro for the very bottom end mostly)

and i don't think the guy was making fun of my gayness, but if he was, that's okay too, i don't much care... i'm an adult, i've been out for A LONG TIME, and my friends matter way more than anyone on any message board...

btw... be on the look out... i'm almost done with my remix of agnelli and nelson -- every day

woot

david

Why the hell wouldn't I? I make my music to be EXACTLY what I want to hear. I'll typically only listen to a track just for fun after it's been done for more than a year. That's when I'm no longer disgustingly sick of it.

Sometimes when I listen to some older stuff I've done, I get the goosebumps. For some reason I feel that I had better ideas back then, even though I was producing with some hifi sennheiser phones, that basically made everything I made sound like crap.

I have had my focal monitors for a whole year now, and still haven't been able to finish a single track. Time constraints mostly, but some of it is due to my terrible work ethic. I overproduce everything, which makes me sick of it all before I even reach 50%. I try so desperately to come up with something original, that I loose my perspective of why I'm doing this in the first place. I need to grow a set of bollocks and get some stuff done already.

no, otherwise how when you know when your tunes are progressing? i listen to my shit all the time,thats the hole reason i started production.

True, but re-read my post. I'm not talking about to listening for analytical reasons (e.g., how well your tunes are progressing). I'm talking about listening for pure listening enjoyment - the same way you'd listen to your favorite CDs.
