My music

[liffy]

Hey guys.
I thought I'd share some of the music I make with you. The link I've added here is what one might call an album, even though it hasn't been through a record company. It's probably not everybody's cup of tea, but hopefully some of you will enjoy at least some of it. All my tracks are available for free, both through streaming and high quality downloads.

Hi liffy.

I just check some of the music of yours at souncloud and I'm impressed.
I'll definitely listen each of them when its possible.
I assume you spend a lot of time front of your computer to create those pieces and it seems well worth it.
Good work.

Are you using Frutty Loops or kind?

Regards.

Thanks Boreal, glad you enjoyed it.
It certainly takes a bit of time putting the pieces together and polishing it all up, though sometimes ideas can come quickly, and a track can be complete in only a few hours.

I'm using something called Ableton Live. Do you make music as well?

Hi liffy.

Answer for your question: I was recording. But recently, I have no inspiration, all ideas I've been thinking are looking bit lame to me recently, so I stop at the moment.
It's maybe related with my computer and gears I use. After I formatted my all HDs, now its looks a lot of burden to re load and setup everything I use.
Sometime (very rare) I grab my acoustic guitar and play some piece to initiate the process (I guess you know what I mean) but than I could not continue.

So, to record something, something belong to you, you need to feel. You need a strong feeling force to you to continue. Than you drift along the way and in a couple of hours its there...
I guess I'm just lazy :)

Take care, keep going and good luck!
Lets inspiration muses be with you.

I see. Well, if you're not enjoying yourself while doing music I guess a lot of the point is lost. Good luck with finding the courage to get your recording setup back the way it should be, and thank you for the motivating words. :)

Actually, I enjoy a lot when I play.
I mean, its just difficult, almost impossible to create something you'll like at the end without inspiration or a good idea.
Sorry, my English is not so good :)

Ah, I understand. Well, I think a good thing for you could be to just play for the fun of playing, and leave aside the thought that something other people like should be the end result of the session, since it can be quite giving on a personal level as well :)
