First through Tenth

I just uploaded the "Ninth" and "Tenth" track to the Flash MP3 Player above. They are in the beginning stages and I'll be adding more things to them before I say they are final. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do to the whole set once it's done. These are my first ten tracks and I want to use them to promote my producing skills, but I'm not sure how. I'm considering a few avenues to venture in. If you have any suggestions let me know - Email: doom.cmyk@gmail.com

TQ Cast Episode 97 Mix

In the Flash MP3 Player on the top you'll find a mix I did using clips of TechQuila Cast episode 97. It was a funny and entertaining show with a lot of memorable moments. Unfortunately I couldnt use them all because I wanted to get the mix out before their 98th episode. But the result came out pretty good and the clips I used worked out well.

The mix was done using Peak 4 and ReCycle for the sampling, Virtual DJ for the scratches and Reason 4.0 for the beats and final mix.

Beats so far

Located in the flash mp3 player above are the the beats I have made so far. I used various loops, samples and device manipulations in Reason 4.0 to create them. I also used my computer keyboard as a MIDI one to input a few note tracks. Right now I'm learning what each device does in Reason 4.0 and how each of the loaded instruments and settings sound like. Thanks to the helpful people on YouTube I've also been learning a lot from their tutorials.

Notable samples include Michael Jackson's "Human Nature" in "Fifth" and in "Eighth" I used "Marcia Religiosa" by The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra which was in The Godfather II.

These tracks are more like loops and I plan to revisit each one and make them full songs.
