I have been to Granada before. I camped in the moutains. It is a great place. Well done for inventing it. Try musichitsquad, a great place to start if interested in electronic music |

"Well done for inventing it." LOL! Start with a simple program like Fruity Loops or Reason. |

I've been to Newcastle before, it was crap! Is it true that girls are told to take their bra off when they're indoors so they'll 'feel the benefit' when they go out? |

What was up with newcastle, it is great now. Did you go to a night club ? Actually I have just changed my knickers, sorry my mind, newcastle is shit as good clubs are being shut to make way for those with a chrome / pine interior. |

It was fun really I was being silly! It was a pub crawl with some mates, I think we ended up in a club but I don't really remember anything.. I remember the smell of cheese? is there a big cheese factory there? |

getting the software will be very expensive or very pirate-y |

get Cubase SX and every VST instruments you can find. Cubase is what most electronic musicians use, i'm pretty sure. Richard D. James used to use it, liam howlett uses it. they used it for the soundtrack for requiem for a dream, name it. It's very expensive also, but u can get a pirated version on the net |

of the VST instruments i recommend: phatmatik pro, FM7 synth, Absynth, DR 008, Halion sampler, ...there's loads of them |

i use on my gameboy and imho it's ace. the tightest, quickest working enviornment i've seen on or off a computer. it's interface is similar to a tracker but the pattern arangement, like everything else, is really open ended which makes it a great musical scratchpad, it's easy to try different arangements and put different parts together without reprograming each pattern. you don't need to put a lot of time into producing if you use one ... what you hear is what you get ... so it's almost like a self contained studio. some people will agrue that working with 4 voices at a time and being limited to bitty sounds makes the whole thing a joke, but i disagree. the synthesis engine is complex enough to get cool sounds out of, you just have to work it. i enjoy the polyphony contstraints, it forces me to dedicate myself to my musical ideas rather than adding yet another textural layer of pluggined sound. also, there is an active community built around LSDj and other chip-trackers ... people are putting records out ... if it's a joke it's a damn good one! on the other hand, if you just hate 8bit sound or u thought learning special moves in streetfighter II was a drag, the gameboy isn't a good platform for you ;D otherwise you can get a bitching, portable setup going for ~$100 ... that's the cheepest portable setup i've ever encountered ... the only thing comperable in price is the qy-10 ... which you can't load samples into (as is possible with lsdj!), has a winky display (compared to a massive gameboy screen) and it's sounds are all uneditable shite gm (compared to lsdjs versitle synth engine based on the gameboys 4 chan sound chip). if yr new to making music and wanted a free pc program to try that has a similar pattern editor i'd look at . there is also a full-featured demo of LSDj on the web site (only thing it wont do is save, b |

ut u can get around that in an emulator). is another pc tracker, but it has a vst structure so you can load it with pluggined sound if that's your thing. you can make "pro" sounding stuff with that and it has good options like exporting individual tracks for sending to a producer or whatever. i think it's $50, again less than anything in it's class (fruity loops, reason, cubase). i guess i went a bit apeshit there, the board didn't evne include my hwole message, why did you read all that? i'm sorry. |

Try software first. There are many music programs. You can browse through www.sharewaremusicmachine.com yourself, or get recommendations which is probably a better idea. Much of the software is free. |
