Hey, good stuff.  Just listening to tribute2amiga now.  Cool.  I'm really enjoying it.  Nice job on production.  I used to make tech/trance stuff years ago.  It's always nice to hear home brew music.

That's a wicked track, but to be honest I think the vocal samples spoil it. I think you should make a version without them. Maybe just leave in the bit that says "This was not one in a professional studio faciity" :-)

Great work though!

Hi Moto,

I see you have a growing appreciation for electronic music.  Have you found a way to reconcile it with your classical training (I think you previously mentioned that your training led you to frown upon electronica)?  Actually, I'm also classically trained, and I find electronic music to have some really interesting developments of musical ideas and forms.  There's so much pleasure in the control of sounds offered in electronic synthesis.  Hmm, I'll stop spouting now.

Hi Oliver! Yes you're right, my classical training does mean that I tend to be overly critical of music in general, but particularly electronic music. Over the last few years I have developed a love for electronica. However, there has to be enough musical "meat" to the track to hold my interest, otherwise it's just noise :-)

Just listened to both, really nice music  :-) The kind to dream away and forget about everything, the kind I would like to listen to while driving on an endless highway  :-)

EDIT : found this on music.download.com (http://music.download.com/djnick/3600-8252_32-100294468.html?tag=listing_song_artist&404=true)  :idea:
