I mean, how did you become a DJ? Given your age, you wouldn't even be allowed into a nightclub under most circumstances.

I'm more or less a KJ

And if you think I have to be able to get into an Ectassy nightclub to be a DJ you need to read up on your hip-hop history.

I share GFs point (even when I`m still disappointed about the comment in the worldcup thread) But I have to listen to your stuff to comment this honestly.

Here's the compressed MP3 of sparkey's "remix" if anybody cares: http://q3k.org/LOL_LIVE_MIX.mp3 (http://q3k.org/LOL_LIVE_MIX.mp3)
-
Is it supposed to sound so distorted?
-
It's not the compression's fault, if anything. Standard 128kbps, LAME-encoded.

What's disorted?
Basically, distortion in music occurs when the tops and bottoms of the wavelengths are chopped off. This is how the music industry is accomplishing the loudness war.

-
Also known as clipping. Occurs when you feed sound that is too loud into a mixing device.

lol
-
In case there's still confusion, listen to Nine Inch Nails. Just about everything Trent Reznor does is heavily distorted.
-
i wanna go ahead and say that's just a little bit different - he himself is an audio engineer iirc and would probably never release something where the tracks are clipping, it's audio 101
-

He definitely knows how to do it right, but everything is still heavily distorted.
-
Distortion is ok in moderation. It can really give a track some kick, but if there's too much it just sounds awful.
I'm actually pretty good with mastering stuff. I've had to wrestle with the loudness of alot of my songs.
-
The track was better than I expected.

thank you :approve:
How can I emebed a WMP file so you don't have to Download it?

Ok, when I first saw the title to the thread I thought of this:
(http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z66/dianavilliers/spork.jpg)
But, all kidding aside. I seriously think you should look into a mixing program called TechnoEjay. I used to do mixes with that program on my old Windows XP machine back in the day (it was version 4 then).
There is a new version available for download here:
http://download.cnet.com/Techno-eJay/3000-2170_4-10891701.html#rateit (http://download.cnet.com/Techno-eJay/3000-2170_4-10891701.html#rateit)
I have not tried version 5 yet. But it has plenty of basic samples to use. The old version was very easy to use, I imagine the newer version might be just as easy to use.
While it is not a super-professional uber fancy program I think it is great for starters such as yourself.

I'm 100% not ****ing you:

-
Both are awful, song-ruining remixes. Sorry. You're just no good at this.
-
Sorry, I don't care. I can mix some really nice slow Electro.
-
Did you do anything more than apply distortion and up the tempo of that "Boom Boom Tschak" one?
-
Lots more than that!
-
Lots more than that!
Such as?
-
I added in the song "one"
I dstorted it
Speed it up
Lowerd the bass
and autotuned it.
-
I added in the song "one"
I dstorted it ✔
Speed it up ✔

and autotuned it. ✔
So you did exactly two more things than I said? Two doesn't qualify as "lots".
-
Also, since when autotune is any good? It's one of the reasons why popular music sucks so much today.
-
Real music is much more fun to compose.
-
It's Noooooooat autoOOOnnnne LiiikkkKKKEEE TttttPPAAWnnnnyyyeee does, it's just voacal tuning.
-

Which isn't needed. Minor imperfections give music character and emotion. If you auto-correct everything, it loses all feeling. This is the root of the problem with your mixes. Music is about expression. What exactly are you trying to get across?
-
No, all I autotuned was the voices to make them more robotic.
-
No, all I autotuned was the voices to make them more robotic.
But why? When I listen to your mixes, I don't get the sense that you're trying to express any sort of emotion or thoughts. It seems as though you're just combining things and applying different kinds of distortion.
-
It's called dance music.
-
It's called dance music.
But there is still emotional content in good dance music. While writing the songs, the musicians were expressing some sort of inner thoughts/feelings. Try mixing songs with similar or contrasting themes in order to make some sort of statement. If you mix at random, you're just creating noise that nobody can relate to.
-
You need to set yourself a target. What do you want the music to achieve?
When I was composing for my music exam, I knew I had to make the features of the pieces (e.g. Ostinatos, variations etc in baroque) obvious and possibly exaggerated. But if you know what you're trying to do, you can focus on making good decisions, instead of adding random distortion and effects as a sort of 'I'm able to do this so I did' approach which I've heard from some of your things.
-
More or less techno, I kinds like Kraughtrock, but meh. Piano is my thing (do not watch that vid on youtube it's old and I sucked)
-
You gotta be more specific than techno. Do you want it to be fast paced, or slow, for example?
Just look at FB's music in BBEANS. Much of that is techno, and look at the variation between Pillow Rocket Speed and Tranquillizer or Stompin'.
Once you know what exactly it is that you want, go out and foucs on bringing it to the forelight. Don't include every effect and distortion that you can, but do the ones that bring out the best in the music you try to create.
-
DUDE I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING YOU CAN'T DO CRAP IN MIXX.
-
What gives you that idea?
-
I'm actually fairley talented when it comes to music, but i nthe mixx program, all you can do is distort.

Not doubting you or anything, but what have you done?

Spark I ought to teach you the ways of the FL Studio user so you can make your own music and stop bothering with crappy remixes.

WRONG, I just had diarrhea and that totally felt like those mixes.
-

Use something else. Hell, you can probably do a bunch more in Audacity (which is free, btw).

all of a sudden youtube doesn't like WMM files.
-
It's never liked WMM files (assuming you're relating to actual WMM project files)
-
Well I can publish stuff straight from WMM but it's giving me errors.
-
Straight from WMM? As in not exporting to a video and uploading the video? If not, why not just try that? :P
-
Youtube has a partnership with WMM so I can publish it withought even bringing up youtube.
Which brings up a thought, youtube is owned by google which owns droid which is competing with kin which is owned by microsoft which owns windows which owns WMM

Why don't use just use h.264, XviD, Theora or Flash Video like every other sane being?

Abysmal. You just put every effect you could in. Barely any cohesion.
-
every effect wut.
-
Terrible.
-
should I quit this too?
-
Dont quit it, just try harder and practise.
One tip is always have a constant background sound.
For example a drum steadily beating in the background all theway through it.
Listen to this song for a bit of inspiration.

It's overly distorted and sounds as if you just threw a bunch of loops together. That doesn't constitute music; it constitutes a headache.

Technically that would be +2 :P

It is not going to help him.
He should just get out the forums, period. Every time he says "i'll act better" he doesn't.
He recently pulled off a LRA2 by trying to change username with SparktheFlame, obviously some intuitive people recognized him, and failed.
There. Doomed to fail. For now, I suggest he leaves and doesn't comes back till he stops spamming. Same for avalanche.

Hmm, perhaps, I suppose a lot of you will have put up with him for a lot longer than I have...
..Although, I don't think he did anything wrong under the spark the flame name, personally.

He`s just an idiot, no mather how his nickname is. He better comes back when his mind has grown a bit.

It has, I think. I'm not even gonna post much really.
-

My opinion exactly.
Changing usernames doesn't do anything if you don't change your style.
I really feel like deleting both of his showcases so he will be so pissed he'll leave once and for all...

looking back at this music it is terrible lol.
