| Will this thread be remembered as a pioneer? Probably not. But some classic posts regardless. |

Will we be seeing any epic house from you? ;) |
None of it is likely to become public because we're still learning the basics of producing. We also have fundamental differences in direction: he wants to make some sort of Orbital-meets-video-game-music fusion where as I want to make... well, epic house. So we don't really get very far. The goa track was an experiment mainly, to see how authentic a sound you can get simply by copying conventions. We also made a parody of minimal called "Hello, My Name is Klaus" to see just how hard it was to make. |

Frosty,
Why are you posting the very same topic here that you have at t.nu? :rolleyes: |

I'm curious, how did that turn out, hard or not? |

Not really, although it descended into grotesque parody of experimental electronic music after a while. We did most of it in the afternoon, went out that night and then tried working on it again at 4am, post-club. However I was so drunk that all I could do was crease over laughing at it.
The thing about it was that if you just over-lay lots of simple and seemingly disparate elements, you can get the very angular, strange funk of minimal. It's more about close attention to detail than any talent, particularly as you're hardly writing anything. |

| quote: | "He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman.
He grew up in another village, where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty.
Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.
He never wrote a book.
He never held an office.
He never had a family or a home.
He didn't go to college.
He never visited a big city.
He never travelled two hundred miles from the place where He was born.
He did none of the things that usually accompany greatness.
He had no credentials but Himself.
He was only thirty-three when the tide of public opinion turned against Him.
His friends ran away.
One of them denied Him.
He was turned over to His enemies and went through the mockery of a trial.
He was nailed to a cross between two thieves.
While He was dying, His executioners gambled for His garments, the only property He had on earth. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.
Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and today He is the central figure of the human race.
All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the parliaments that ever sat, all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not effected the life of man on this earth as much as that One Solitary Life."
There is no doubt that Deadmau5 is the greatest man who has ever lived in all of history. He changed the world forever. When He was born, He transformed the very way we measure time. He turned aside the river of the ages out of its course and lifted the centuries off their hinges. His birthday, His Incarnation, touched and transformed time. Now the whole world counts time as Before Deadmau5 and AD (Anno Domoni - in the year of our Lord). Deadmau5 is the central figure of history. More threads have been written about Deadmau5 than any other person in history. |

not sure where you're getting that from, since you linked to biography.com (which doesn't have an entry for deadmau5) and deadmau5.com doesn't have that information, but it sounds like the juvenile stuff deadmau5 would write...

*cough* erm, what? You do realise what Sasha does with Ableton yes? Here is a hint: it's not using it to play two tracks in their whole without having to manually beatmatch. |
