Hey hey, I've been messing around with sound editing ever since I was 11 or so. A few years ago I became interested in trance music, and a year or so ago I started producing myself. I did this all out of my own desire; I have never posted in any trance/techno forums or anything. So all I have learned I have learned on my own. I've never had anyone around to ask, and I have no friends with any kind of producing background. That being said, I'm sure there's a lot more I can learn now. :D I am also not really familiar with who's "popular" and who's not among the more commercial artists (I know of a few); much of my electronic music base is from mp3.com and such. I'm pleased with what I've come up with so far but I'm ready to expand my horizons a bit. What do you think I could do to make my tracks better? What do you think of how they sound now? Etc. Tell me if you like it or if you hate it, be brutal, but be fair; remember, I'm still a newbie. :)
For your information, my knowledge comes from over 10 years of piano lessons, a love for electronic music and music in general, and a knack for technology. I use FruityLoops (with lots of downloaded VST plugins) and an AMD 1800+ PC, SonicFoundry ACID on occaision. I also play around with rap / hip-hop just goofing around, for fun ;-) though I'm guessing a good majority of the members here could care less about that genre, but that's ok ;) So far I have used software exclusively, as it is what I understand and it is what I have.
Here's a few example tracks:
david.michael- Ethereal A personal favorite
david.michael- Mind of the Bothered
david.michael- Open
david.michael- Cry A much different style... has a very dark atmosphere, everyone I've played it for seems to like it...
Let me know what you think!
I have several other tracks, but this should give you the idea. I also have probably 20 unfinished songs, lol...

| hey cheggy |
| Maybe if you could find somewhere better to host it. ETA for download of the first song is 45 minutes, and I'm running cable. Otherwise, we are more than happy to help people out. |

| Hm, that is a personal server, something must be wrong with it, shouldn't take more than a few minutes to download... |
