this one's for all the musicmakers on xltronic:
does anybody still have their 1st ever (or at least very early) tracks up on the net?
what did they sound like? do you still think it's da shiznitz? have you managed to scale aphex-like musical heights since?
here's ME circa 1998: humble beginnings
and ME circa 2003: back to the future
comments welcome!

not up... made in 1998 or so... I will start uploading my stuff soon... I'm better at producing/mastering today, but it was just recently I understood the process more... some of my old tracks are real good though, but most are far from completely finnished.

hmm. intriguing stuff for a 1st ever electronic track - reminds me a bit of fennesz.
does mp3.com.au not have any restrictions on the amount of tracks you can upload?
after a corporate whore takeover by vivendi universal, the regular mp3.com site only allows 3 tracks max unless you, erm, pay to play!

i linked to my mp3.com page in ambsace's old thread, but i have some absolutely hideous shit i made right after i downloaded sonic foundry acid without any loops and i couldn't make my own loops. it is some random sounds from the computer game "abuse" looped over and over, with robot voices (which, back then, i thought was necessary for electronic music) saying "hand over the cart." i have a few more of equal quality, like "run from cartbot" "can u handle it" and "mook's attitude" but i wont put those up.
"cart song" 64kbps (because its not worth any more) apparently made sometime in 2001.
check it out if you want a good laugh, its seriously the worst song ever made.

the only copy i have of my first track (from 1997) is full of wow and flutter and tape hiss, and if anyone asked me directly to hear it, i'd let anyone hear it. but like most everyone else here i have to twist arms to get anyone to listen to anything, so i can't imagine who would really be interested in hearing this track. demo track one, it's provocatively titled...

<- thinks about it

earliest id like you to hear is the gate old tunes
'nicorette is grate' and 'harmless' are good examples of how bad we were back in the early days :D although that period was also when we first started to be OK

the first real track i had made was with the band i played in when i was 13. it's completly lost, :`(. it wasn't that bad. monotone bass + drums, guitar with lots of effects and female vocals. sounded like joy division, A Bit.

I still have all my old acorn archemiedies disks with my first tracker music on. Not that I have any way of using them now (which is not really an entirely bad thing).

here is my first trak. written early 98. its real quiet, because i didnt have any monitors back then, and the mix is shit.
if i could get fastrackerII to work on my PC again, ide have a go at remixing / remastering all these traks. but anyway.

And, in two years, you've never tried another music style ?
(not that I don't like your music, just curious)

I can't play ANYTHING. except my laptop.
and there is still so fucking much to learn in what I am doing now, so I'll be going at it for quite a while yet.
also, I don't plan it - I kind of see where it takes me. thirdly, I don't spend that much time making music - it kind of goes in spurts (ooh! matron!).

Damn... My first track was probably made around -93 on amiga with pro tracker so... And I used to "overwrite" the DCC tapes all the time with new music so much of my early stuff i vanished for ever. ; (

The first track or tracks I did were back in 1994. The original tape of about 6 or 7 of my early tracks from 94-95 has dissappeared but my sister has a copy of it.

i've been writing music since i was 11, (1993) so i don't have any of my first songs on the internet. i was playing guitar. me and my friends were in a pitiful excuse for a band.
i starting playing on computers in 1998, but didn't start using them for music exclusively until 2000. My first electronic song was this pitiful track called "Nintendo on Crack." I still have it on CDR in my closet.
I do however, have a track up from my first album. It is HERE and called Plus Vs Minus Equals Slugfest.

wait!
I tell a lie! it has only been about a year since I started this music lark.. :P
I really don't know how I got that confused.
however, a friend and me had made the soundtrack to a play together - those were my first electronic tracks.
and it seems my friend still has one of the better tracks on his site:
right click-and-save (or stream)
the quality isn't that good - only a 64kb mp3.
I still like it a lot. :)
