Hello :) Welcome to my page
My online name is Angel or thats how most people know me, and as a hobby have been creating my own music for the best part of 18 years, although its been something ive grown up with, as i always got the odd Casio from being 6, but i was never able to read music, so i never had the courage to take lessons, and learnt to play the piano by ear. When i was 12, I came across a software for the Amiga A600 called Octamed. This was a 4 bit tracker, and i learnt how to sequnce music on it, and since then, creating my own music became my life. In 1995 i was given a Yamaha DJX Midi keyboard and then 3 years ago i bought the DJX 2 from a Car boot. I connected them to my PC and bought a programme called Dance Ejay 5/6. Soon after, i realized Ejay was a good learning tool, but not what i was looking for, so finally purchased Fruity Loops 6 and Sony Acid pro 6, and took the time to learn the softwares to the best of my ability.
Finally after spending a bit more money than i can really afford (haha) i upgraded the PC, which now has over a Gig of ram, and a brand spanking new sound card. I also forked out on a new midi Hi-fi unit with some better speakers, and after a long wait, i dont have to keep exporting a track to hear it cos the CPU usage, used to make it almost unlistenable, and through crappy speakers, i think my work was beginning to severley suffer, but i have now noticed the change in the music i create, and i feel its a lot better, and more listenable. Ive also recently scrapped Sony Acid pro 6, i couldnt work with it, and to be honest dont need it now i can manage to sequence music on fruity loops with no problems. I do make my own samples, but i do patchwork premade samples as well (and i have no shame) because i am not here to try and be famous, or look intentionally for big record deals ect. I simply love creating my own style of music, no matter whether i have done it all from scratch with my own work, or using softwares that contain premade samples and are intended to be used in that manner.
In March, i launched an Internet TV Channel called UM.TV For unsigned Artists and Bands which is doing extremely well. Recently there have been talks about launching UM.TV onto a Television network in America where it would be viewed by millions, so watch this space ;)
For now though, im just happy with my own little achievements, no matter how small. RedDress is becoming very popular and its hard to keep up as its very overwhelming, but im loving every minute of it.
