Sounds about right to be honest, not everybody who download will 1. have an account 2. bother to comment.
truth i suppose- just makes me more curious about who these people are in the world listening to my music- could be anyone!

This thread makes me die on the inside... I've only been at it since December but still.
Congrats to all of you and good luck in the future.

Today I made my first good sounding resampled bass line. I was having a little trouble, then messed with a granulizer.
Also I was planning on releasing a 5 song EP, but then today when I made the awesome bass line I'm thinking it's the best song, so now theres six songs I'm going to put out to the public and I'm not sure if it should be an album, or all broken up in parts.

After being approached by some really nice frenchies to take part in a glitch hop compilation called hypothetik disaster, a bunch of affiliated heads liked my tune enough to make a crazy videoclip around it featuring a dude with a giant penis gun shooting loads at his ex girl. It's pretty cool even if the tune is mad dated. It's on youtube and shit now I think too.
Also I was mean to venetian snares once lol

Someone asked me how I made a sound on a few different occasions, it's that wonder what got me into this so every time someone does that I feel like I've completed a circle, which is cool.

Cheers man .
I also made a few women cry with sample choice on my newest tune, not actually good but was note worthy I think.
And was the first tune on a youtube promotion channel that was voted on by respected members of this community <3.
I Feel slow when reading through this thread though, I've hardly done anything, even a release :/ Discouraging, that.

Orange Dust! I remember you from somewhere too... I remember digging your tracks!
I don't remember posting on Watmm back in the day.. although I think some people from there used one of my early tracks on a compilation (Tefosav I think?).

My very very first track ever produced (half a year ago or so ago) was used by some guy in iceland as an opener to a set (dunno if it was a dj set or a band playing, but either way, to have your first song EVER used at any sort of event halfway around the world was an awsome feeling.
It was a shitty youtube rip that he used, which made me question the music he was playing, but to be honest, I didn't give a fuck.

You got a Soundcloud link, or a link to the MD blog?

Like Astral, I got a tune played on BBC Kent introducing, 2 weeks running. It was my fusion of flamenco and dubstep and the DJ seemed to like it

I don't have any achievments, I'm extremely new to producing in general, having been at it for around 6-7 months, but I suppose my biggest (what I would call an achievment) was finishing a song that I'm actually proud of. Means a great deal to me because when it comes down to it, I'm making music I want to listen to, that I enjoy. If other people do too, its a bonus
