Most of my songs will be further to the left than mainstream and I like to use dissonance, offbeat timings, robotic riffs, crunchy synths, distortion, big beats and many, many 'things that should not be' happening in one song.
Gear I use: Korg MC49, Ibanez G10, Shure SM58, Proel 8 track mixer, M-Audio Fast Track Pro, Goldwave and to throw it all together I use Reason 4.0.
Just me.
Family life dictates otherwise.
Changes from day to day, but I like tunes with a good beat and tunes that go somewhere.
Old tunes (Amiga 1200) All new tunes are done using Reason (which is an awesome bit of kit for someone as impatient as me). All samples are made in Reason or using GoldWave/SoundForge.
Music should be free. FREE THE MUSIC!!!!!!
