yeah that is the idea man... what I meant is I dont have anything I'm using in projects up there.. you know what I mean? I dont like giving away stuff before using them during shows and events or what not.

i get you.

i'll favourite your page and sit down and have a listen.

may need some advice on mastering recordings from you as i love to record and mix but really dont have a clue when it comes to mastering.

there's all so much to learn with music; amazing art form.

I dont know anything about mastering either :lol:

Nah, in all honesty I put what sounds good. I dont have a rule of wrist for it, like compress this or that.... when I am trying to make it sound proper I try and balance things and fit them together mostly with the use of EQs and things.

no, I dont often make beats entirely on one thing. I take a bit of this and that.... okay there are two things there that aren't completed tracks but I mean finished songs. Like sometimes I will record the drums from the mpc cause they sound rugged and well my mpc doesn't have a built in synth so I use computer pluggins and sample sounds that have synths.. etc.

There's loads i want to do, one of them is to get some good beats together and play some heavy live bass over it then add my Bullseye guitar on it with the Angry Fuzz pedal- a cross between metal and singy distorted guitar- which should combine well with cool beats.

Maybe on my Christmas break i'll get time to set it all up and do some more stuff
