Oooh nice, gotta love some DnB/old skool from time to time ^^

Btw is that one made on MTVMG programs with exported samples or FL Studio? I think a new FL Studio came out, btw

This wasn't done on MTVMG, although I have some new tracks to do in that. This was done with the newest FL Studio 9. Thanks Omni. ^^

AAah yeah FL Studio 9. I am curious if this one is the same prices in overall. I kind of found ACID easier, though, altough the bug causing VST instruments settings to not be saved at all with your project is annoying when you're working on a long project.

I can't wait for next version of Emuze for the Xbox 360, though, I wonder if it will turn into a full music studio and be accepted on Xbox Live arcade instead of just indy games? From what I read from the author comment on Youtube, they plan to have it like Music 2000 or something like that, which they used back in the days.

Well if you already own FL Studio 8, at the time (not sure about now) 9 was a free upgrade which was very nice. I really prefer the look of 9 to 8 and it also came with 4 new VSTs, some laughed at them but it really helps out for my style of music as you know (basslines, different time signatures etc.)

I haven't heard of that game before, but if it turns out like Music 2000 then all the better. I'll have to look in to it.

For VST plugins, there are also a few that Necro posted over here that are freeware. Just check the music sub-forum for them. I am not sure if the links are still working, though, but some can be useful.

For now Emuze only allows you to paste premade melodies and drum loops, but they planned to add a full music making environment into it like sound effects and riff editor. I hope they don't do it like Ejay, though.

I've heard some stuff that sounds really similar to this before, but I can't for the life of me remember what musician it was or where I heard it. O_o. Not bad... argh! I really wish I could remember. @ Omni, you finally started using Sony Acid? =D

Just Jungle in general, perhaps LTJ Bukem etc. Or did you mean unknown artists? xD Thanks all the same.

@AoC: I kinda liked Acid 7 more than 6 when I tried them. I only did one song with it, though (Euro Blast From The Past) because the glitch causing VST settings to not be saved with your project is kinda annoying.

I still love MTVMG, though, because of how increidbly fast I can make songs in it while still having them sound good

@JCW: never knew the original musician's name. If I could remember where I heard it originally maybe I could figure it ou! XD
@Omni: Ah ok. My bro uses Sony Acid 6, and that's what I use for mixing fandubs at the moment. =) Not sure what you mean about the VST settings. For my bro, depending on the length and complexity of the song he can turn em out in hours(first version) to about a week. Depends on how much he changes it as he goes too. =)

Yeah VST are mostly for when you use ACID as music creation suite, like trance, techno, house, etc.
