My stuff is cliched but only been doing this sh*t for a month. At least I KNOW it's cliched and can only move onwards

I also think it may be something like there's most likely a finite amount of sound combos and so on. even if that amount is extremely large, it aint infinite. therefore at some point or the other, someone's gonna make something very similar to something that already is "out there"

I cant stop playing the riff to Benga - "Crunked up" its just so damn catchy.......

I had to pull a song off my old soundcloud because the intro sounded just like "Setting sun" by the Chemical Brothers.

It was like......

My mate: "Yeah I like the track but dont you feel bad about sampling the entire intro from Setting sun?"

Me: "What sample?......... Oh shit"

I always play the riff from Hey Joe by jimi hendrix (or What You Know About That by T.I.) when I'm trying out patches, it covers more than a full octave so it's all good.

For a good few hours I thought I'd written 'tortured' by Coki. The tune just came so easily from my hands to the keyboard, I later realised why.

Just add vocals from that hellvoice sample pack, use different curse words in every song.

I've been working on a track that sounds awfully similar to "Earth a Run Red" by Digital Mystikz (mainly in the melody but less roaming) and it sounds pretty awesome... personally I think it's different enough to work
