#92I mess about with Reason 4 and a MIDI keyboard, but I'm pretty bad at it and have nothing worth sharing ;-) My little brother is pretty good at it though and has just started studying sound engineering.
Me too. I built a x0xb0x ( http://www.ladyada.net/make/x0xb0x/ - it's a pretty impressive project, Ladyada does great stuff) a few years ago and play around with it occasionally, but I've realized I'm much better at enjoying other people's music than creating my own.
the 303 has quite possibly the worst interface in the history of the galaxy (imnsho)

#94German pop music. Formerly major label.
The first album was recorded and mixed in Logic. The second album was recorded with Logic but the engineer who is currently mixing it switched to ProTools. The music itself is all handmade by us, the musicians.
I quit a well paid job in IT to do this full-time a few years back when we got signed. I guess the experience was much like being an entrepreneur.

#95Sort of electro-pop rock, and my love for 80s synth pop mixed together: http://tindeck.com/listen/cqcc http://tindeck.com/listen/vqjv I'm looking for a vocalist to collaborate with, if anyone out there is interested.
hello madchester!

I wasn't sure if it was 303 or the x0xb0x, but I agree (they're slightly different, I think. I haven't used a real 303)

We recorded with Cubase.

#98I just posted the first chiptune I've composed in many years here (LSDJ on an original grey Gameboy): http://8bitcollective.com/music/algernon/Snuffles/
And this is a rough mix of an old punk rock tune I wrote years ago but recorded for the first time earlier this year (live guitar and vocals, live tracked electronic drums, and synthesized bass, recorded in REAPER): http://obsceneart.com/examples/better.mp3
I've been trying to figure out how to mix punk rock and chiptunes, but haven't actually made a solid attempt at it yet (though a C64 is playing bass on that second track; the later versions have live bass playing, and I liked it better, but they're inaccessible at the moment, on a machine that isn't exactly working).

#99Anyone with commercial success?
Well, I got to drink for free when I played ... :)

#100I think this is one of the best posts on HN ever. Somebody should accumulate the top ten of these and make a Hacker News album!
I'm a Sonar user but I'm still trying to figure the dang software out. I bought the full Cakewalk suite, I am an amateur keyboardist, and I can improvise melodies and such, it's just the software that is so complicated it destroys my ability to be creative.
But I'll get it one day. I've setup my rack behind my development desk, so whenever I need a break from coding I'm playing with the system. It's just a matter of time.
