Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2 - Aphex Twin

The absolute best ambient album ever, in my opinion.

Not a bad overview of the genre, but I think these kind of tutorials are a bad idea. People will follow these 'rules' too closely and end up making bland trance music with no experimentation, because they don't know any better.

Its best when a producer try to mimic a sound without any help, because it usually doesn't come out to what they want, but it is a unique sound.

Some people say salted or sauced when somebody get humiliated. Not sure where those came from.

Cat Farm
Pencil Factory
Irritating Stick
Baby's First Coffin

There are a few that popped into my head.

Sm1 was gonna say it, might as well beat em to it.

Too bad that already happened.

I wouldn't mind seeing a contest for songs completely by sampling music. But I have no idea how we would get through copyrights =/

I like to ride sines.

Edn.

Actually, I'd really try that. A song completely out of cowbell samples.

Awesome.

Hey you never sent it to me D:

Ah well, I guess I'll go next time.

To be honest, I think everyone at one point is discouraged about making music, or keep going. I've been through it many many times. Your best option is to just keep on trying. Progression can get slow at times, but in the end it wil lbe worth it.

Another option is to take a break fro music altogether, but it doesn't seem liek you've been doing it too long, so the first one is better.

Well said, I must say.

Im f-ing tired of retards posting stupid reviews.
On my new song a person rated 3 because he said that his ears f-ing hurt...

Turn down the volume then...he said it sounded like a bunch of screaming...

Does this sound like anything close to screaming?...what a retard

*sigh* stupid people shouldn't reproduce...

Boo hoo, you got an honest review. The only reviews that should be deleted are abusive ones. Atleast that reviewer said why he didn't like it, instead of just saying "this sucks" or something like that.

Hey, I like this idea. I don't know what everyone is bitching about. it will be tough, but I'm going to attempt this :)

Happy Pico day, everyone :D

To be honest, there is alot better instrumental bands out there. Just look for them.

Don't be so full of yourself. ;)
