colaboration

I'd really like to talk about any aspect of working with others.

What kind of pairing(s) can you imagine for you and one other person?

for example: I am really good at generating material, but usually get distracted with other material to pull things into a cohesive composition. So I dream about meeting someone who can reign me in and keep things to one track at a time.

what do you use to make music?

I use Reason and Pro Tools and I might be able to help. Let me know what you're thinking.

Right now I'm really big on max/MSP. I also use the G2, play tuba and know my way around logic.

I really posted this topic because every collaborative project I've engaged in has been short lived, many not even bearing creative fruit.

I want to be in a band.
I want to produce tracks for a vocalist i really respect/appreciate.
It'd be cool to have someone impose unique creative limitations on me.

Hey, regarding collaboration, I have some songs that need mastering / redoing / reworking / etc. I made a 45 minute album of songs actually. I was gonna collaborate with someone, but have not heard from him. I'd be interested in working together on them with someone...

I am new to music as my first year anniversary of being a ChucK programmer is arriving soon. I have a guitar but cannot play it, and I create special effects for guitars as well as write ChucK software. I use Audacity too.

Anyone game to work over my songs?

Mot Juste, hi and welcome to electro-music.com! I will PM you with the location of a *.tgz file that your unzip utility should be able to open. It has all the songs in it, nine of them. Five with lyrics and four instrumentals.

I have most of the music on separate tracks so once you decide that you like a song and want to work on that one, I can zip up the individual files for you to manipulate or replace to your heart's content.

The zip file should have the lyrics in it also as a pdf document.

I should warn you that some of the songs are a bit shocking, one is anti-religon and another is about weapons. Anyway, I'll pm you the location.

yo Mot Juste.

Here's some 120bpm. I'd like to send you an aiff, though. . .

you can break it into chunks and make sections out of it.

Inventor, do you have any tips on exchanging high res files online?

m/organ, get yourself a hosting solution with www.godaddy.com, it's only $6.99 a month plus $12.99 a year for the domain name. Then you can post large files as well as establish a web presence for yourself. I've been at it for a year and a quarter, and I just got some ad revenue that will mostly pay for the site. whoot! So from now on it's a free deal.

By the way, I'm also interested in collaborating on hardware projects if anyone is interested. I'd like to work with someone who has familiarity with the Eagle PCB CAD package. I can do software prototyping, hardware breadboarding, documentation and a little bit of web page design, but I have yet to learn Eagle. I suppose I should put some quality time in with Eagle and get to know it, eh?

But I don't want to be a one-man-show, I'd rather work with someone else because two heads are better than one. Also I am not good at dealing with people, so once designs are made I'd rather work with someone who can stock and sell products to folks. I have this silly idea that some of the designs can be sold as electro-music.com products, I think I'll pm Howard about that and see what he says.

m/organ and Inventor - I just wanted to let you know that I'm on it and I'll post the results and we can go from there.

Cool, did you like my songs?
