It would be super lolz if I rip that bitch. I get jealous of the kids starting out today because nothing was intuitive and powerful like software is today. Oh well. I mean everyone from my gen remembers discovering overdubbing by using two tape decks. I sampled beats using that technique. That is how shit started for me. Don't foget the Casio with the 8bit sampler on it. (closest thing to an oldman smiley I can find)
i wish i could find some of my old amiga tunes

found my old sounclick page from 2004 when I used to go by the name Cokie Huxtable
made that in 06 after a long remix/a capella phase and was just getting into dubstep and learning how to get flesh eating bass sounds.. the lil intro is like a straight bite off Haunted with the bass high pitched and then going down octaves into the drop...

"Lovin' You Blows My Mind" is lush mate. Feelin' that.
Made with a version of fruity that didn't have audio clips, so it took a week to align the vocal. Still love the acapella, I use it in my live sets.

The first thing I ever made electronically was done on cubase about 4 or 5 years ago for Uni, and I didn't have much interest in it at all.
It was a terrible cover of 'Sympathy for the Devil' by the rolling stones, using only one plugin. Can't remember what it was called, was some old ROMpler thing.
Tune was cack, and all my early cubase Uni stuff is lost to a frazzled hard-drive. (a blessing, really.)
Then we got to do music for Media, I bought a copy of Sonar and Acid Pro, and this was my first ever serious dabble into electronica. They gave us some video clips and said, go compose!
Stalker http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA_3I56PFsY
That last one counts as my very first dance tune. I had made it in Acid Pro with CM samples in my spare time and just chucked it over the top of the video. I was running close to the deadline and spent all my time working on the 'Stalker' one. It just happenned to fit quite well!
Actually don't know why I haven't pursued the Media composition thing really. Quite enjoyed it.

the beat on this video was one of my first dubstep beats but i never finished it.
just gonna post this in here for laughs, was my first dubstep track in reason. I made it on an production course
(for those with subs, I warn you to turn them down now to avoid blowing them, my idea of mixing it was to make the sub as loud as a club setting through small monitors )
