Fairly self explanatory, stuff you've got an eye on doing during the next 12 months...
- Enter remix contests, at least one every six weeks
- Produce more varied stuff
- Do at least one DJ mix per month, at least three of which will be unsigned stuff
- Sample more
- Expand my hardware setup

I'd like to:
- Produce more varied stuff - I'm looking at getting into writing movie scores and melody driven songs. I'd like to move away from dirty basslines and YOI's
- Get a hardware synth - Probably not going to happen though with how expensive college is and shit
- Not post any songs online
- Learn FM8 and absynth
- Learn how to produce Heavy metal in a DAW
I can't think of anything else right now, but that list seems pretty good to me.

Buy more UAD plugins, buy more romplers, keep improving my mixdowns, buy more cinematic sound sources like kontakt libraries and sample packs, do more remixes, get picked up by a big label.

Collab alot more
Start rewiring something with reason, as I cant stand its absence of VST's, its really limiting
Enter more remix competitions
Push genre boundaries
Find some really good real instrument samples; strings, maybe woodwind and whatever else I find interesting.
Get into some sort of regular DJing

Start finishing tracks again (already improving within this)
Not overcomplicate my tracks, make them simpler but more solid

So one of your resolutions is to do something that's already done? Interesting tactic, I think I might succeed more often if I did that.

-Add To Hardware (coupler cheap samplers, nice-ish rack mount filter, reverb)
-Get to the point where I'm only mixing/summing ITB
-Really, really say fuck it to convention and genre and dive deep inside and find out what's really swimming around in my head
-more music theory

Work more with vocalists of all types, who have good work ethic and passion
Finish glitchhop/dancehall collab ep and get that out, by conventional methods or start pushing my own label if i cant find appropriate vibey label
Find some money to pay for ghetto studio time
Write more triphop/dubstep vibes and do something with them
Become more versatile DJ, start trawling again, stop turning down gigs
Be more confident, learn to communicate online

1. Send more stuff out to various djs
2. Get more involved in the local scene/try and play out a bit more
3. Do more collabs/remixes- ie. piggyback on other's skills
4. Start an alias properly where its all the weird stuff ive made, not just the housey techno stuff
