I'm an American, but I live in Hong Kong. All I can say is I feel so much more confident being an American expat now. Yesterday I was gambling in Macau, and I got on the shuttlebus to go back to the ferry. The only seat left was next to an Indian guy who was smiling at me, and obviously waiting for ...

I don't produce mmml. I mostly produce stuff that sounds like a cross between techno and 80s disco.

I used to play keyboard/accordion/guitar in a folk rock band.

It's a bit off topic to the loops thing but just an observation and a conclusion I came to which led me to wonder how they get to licence the stuff. I know what you're talking about, I've noticed it too. Sometimes you'll click on one of the one-shot samples and it's something really recognizable, l...

Well I work for a music-related business, choosing music for companies/commercials/events, so my co-workers are really interested in what I do outside of work. In fact, right now my boss is digging through his massive vinyl collection on the wall for a DJ gig he has tonight... In the past though, if...
