i always call stuff 'gay'. I think on here i most likely have so sorry if i offended any folks.

its a habitual thing i guess. 15 or so yrs ago in school, everything was gay. you miss a shot in a football game - gay. lose a life on simpsons arcade - you yell 'gay' at the screen......lock yourself out - 'gay' !

I remember me and my bro playing video games and my mum yelling up 'if you call that computer gay one more time im taking the plug away for a week'.....the next morning i awoke to my bro yelling 'ahh this computer is so bent'.

but as this rule has surfaced, clearly it get on some people nerves and i can see why. i guess my point is that none of us saying 'oh thats so gay' actually mean we think being gay is bad. but actually that's what it sounds/read like, anyway you know what i mean.
if its offending some peops hell i see no harm holding back the slurs.
as long as i can still wish death on lady gaga from time to time

Figured i would ask in here incase anyone has any of these lying around they wish to part with.

I'm mostly after 'JV80-04 Vintage synths' and 'JV80-08 Vintage Synths of 70's and 80's'.

But I'm interested in any of the cards, I've only got Hip Hop so far so i have space for a bunch more in there.

Cheers,

Tom

Bumping this thread to let you know i put a preview for my new record  'The Drip Taper E.P' online if anybody wants to check it out.

Didnt start a new thread because the bleeps and bloops are very light on this record. Mostly on this I used a different approach, running an old Roland JV1080 and some casio's through the 4 track and into the computer, mixed with some boom bap 808's, VST's, Field recordings, Raps, washed up vocals etc.... so if that sounds appealing have a listen to the preview.

Would be good to know what you guys think of it. I feel like at-least 50% of my 'followers' have come from the days of 8bc and from here.

Peace

sorry man, wasnt trying to be a dick.........but education is the biggest rip off business going. especially in niche sectors, atleast know with the internet and nerd forums like this the information is as you say available for free to all if you can be motivated to search, you can pretty much work out how to get anything accomplished.

after farewell static, my new ep is decidingly not very 8 bit. It's got its sparing bleepy moments though of course......all them shitty casio's, a roland jv1080 and mgb recorded through tapes and back into computer and with some raps and 808's. yes its hipster musics i guess.
anyway a preview is here if you want to listen.thanks

i think if you need to read how to make your music interesting, you should probably stop reading and just make more and more songs. For me i just made a shit ton of songs, as the years rolled by i took things i liked from this and that software, ways to sequence drums and shit like that, until i settled in familiar techniques that make my music atleast interesting to my own ears if no one elses. I kind of find threads like this a bit pointless. but thats just me. hopefully they aid some people.
