Hallo : Well, basically i've been making prods since the Atari ST FM on all Steinberg 12 , 24 , VST, etc then Qbase thats when i had my first pentium ,@ the same time i was producing myself live around south London ,especially the Fridge Bar..now back in Paris i mainly run on REAPER 7 which is great as i found myself making podcast for Making Waves ( go check them out if U can understand the frenchies linguo ; ) , much different universe than beat makers , although i produced a few beats while working for them , they call it : "habillage sonore" , very sexy .
So basically now i have a few things to share from my long everlasting experience...also one of my uncle used to own a record shop back in the Caribbean where am from so i listen to all kind of music from classical to nowadayz since the goood old '60s, except jazz , before 2 PM, 'cuz i just can't don't ask me why it's a long story
I'm a very good talented singer but i play badly the keyboard , i can play a 4 string guitar only and any percussion comes naturally to me since schooldays .
I run my daw on REAPER 7 which i love and i bought it online about a year ago , thanx to the videos pour les tutorials Mr K.G !!!
All the best free plugins
My good old YAMAHA EX7 , an AKAI soundcard .. thats it !...as we're not gonna go thru the external sounds which is huge since i never managed to throw away me old hi-fi systems for decades .
when people ask me what am listening to i answer , am not listening to music am just hooked on Midinite ( thats the band 's name )
go look for Natty J One on the net and lemme know what it sounds like !
