Seriously. And 2 years worth of work on the Hard Drive, which was backed up to a second hard drive that was damaged on a particularly harrowing journey through Romania. This European tour was the time of my life, but I paid dearly for it.

What the hell does this have to do with production techniques you ask?

Well, I don't lament my lost work too hard, because I have also had my head blown wide open regarding music theory and structure, so I'm ready to get back to work double-hard on some new new. I already acquired a new MP with the $'s I made in Europe, but I need to build my weapon (sample) stock back up. Can anyone help me with this? I don't want your samples necessarily, (unless you have any good OS2XL instrument programs you'd be willing to share...) but if you could point me in the general direction of either A. A good place to find some Big Bass samples, or B. Any good Vinyl blogs, especially for blues, jazz or psychadelic stuff it would be MASSIVELY appreciated. In Fact, if anyone can provide any really good sources (I mean TOP NOTCH) PM me, and I'd be willing to send you one of the following extra Items I have:

Black side panels for the MPC 1000

Volume / Record knobs for the 1000

a 128 mb Compact flash card (I'll put some of my favorite drums from the Drumlabz "Crushing Drums" DVD on it when I send it too.)

So let me know.

Easy,
John Falconcrest

Thanks for the condolences guys.

Crossings: You are the man. Much appreciated.

Seance: I feel the Exact same way, I was totally shattered for about a day, but then I realized that there are skills and abilities I have with that machine that no one can ever take. Give me ANY MP and I can cook something up because I've been working with these machines for 10+ years. That gave me some comfort. Now I'm back at the boards and the only things I really miss are my Juicy Big Bass samples that I layered myself, and the collection of Vinyl samples I spent years hunting down...

Gertie: The LAST thing I am worried about is al-Qaeda. It seems like so much of what we hear in the US is designed to scare us, but shit is really the same all over the world: The kids try to kick it, the Government breaths down their necks, The working class just tries to survive and the rich stand on their backs and take as much as they can grab. At least from what I've seen...

Cosmic: What on earth do you mean?

I apologize Cosmic, the English part of the tour fell through, and things got so hectic right before I left that I had zero time to do anything other than get my ass on the plane. However, I do plan on returning, hopefully with some more reliable English connections so if it goes down I'd be very down for hanging out with the ambassador of madness...

ALSO: Is the guy in your signature giving the "F*ck you" sign? I just learned that that's what that hand-sign means in some countries, and why...
