a mORE dETAILED iNFO :
I originaly composed this playing the Roland JV1080 with Impulsetracker.
The MC5 version was done with samples from that synth and rather
rushed drums and percussion(if any).
These sounds are an improvment in any case, so the guys that
judged and listened to the MC5 version should welcome these changes.
Also some minor glitches were corrected that made a rather ugly mess
of the verse lead,when it would fade to single notes.
People, who can be ashured of my gratitude would be Sherman Wu,
Julian Farber, Jakob Svanholm, Mirko Buttoni and Eric Aili who were
kind enough to review my MC5 song which mostly IS this song.
I hope I have eliminated the stuff you didn't like about it.
Thanks guys.
No thanks to Alexander Joscht in particular who had the cheeck to write
a brainless one-liner. Not very creative at all and probably(?) the
reason I didn't make it to round 2 but that's speculating.
Special thanks to all my tracking colleagues on #trax who I respect
for their honesty and occasionaly(?:) whacky attitudes, especialy
Mick Rippon, Basehead and of course my buddy Nemesis1.
I must say I enjoyed writing this and look back as this being the
exact way I felt at the time and that's what I think music is.
That reminds me, even though you might never read this, I'd like
to thank The-Artist-Formerly-Known-As-Prince for all the inspiration,
love, groove and adrenaline I got from listening to your songs.
Yours were the sounds I sampled for my songs when I started out.
So what's motivation for YOU ? How ? Who can and who won't motivate you ?
I ask myself some basic questions every day and move a step closer to
the person I want to be. The music I write is a part of that and with
every note there's another need. THe need to be recognized. So what else
is new ? God, I love music. Can you imagine how frustrating it is not
to get some kind of recognition ? I thought so and I'm glad some people
atcually tell me they liked my songs. A shame the ones that don't like
it don't write to me. I'd like to hear you too.
I'll wrap it up now since nobody will be in the mood to listen to the
song if I continue. This music is free and it belongs to you.
Love and music, there IS nothing else for me and here is a piece of it,
just for you all.
Love and peace to you (women first:)
