I've been longing to create some music for a while now. Came across GarageBand (digital music authoring and mixing software - lets you create/mix your own music from scratch using 'soft' instruments, on your computer) on a Mac and fell in love with it too, but, as teenage probably taught you, baby, sometimes love just ain't enough. Can't afford a Mac just for a Mac's sake. Not yet.
I don't take rejection particularly well, so about a month ago, I located the limited-time trial version of Mixcraft (www.acoustica.com/mixcraft) which works well on my domesticated laptop. While not quite up to GarageBand's versatility (you can't load up, say, an electric guitar and use your keyboard to create your award-winning riff from scratch, for example), but it's a lot of fun for anyone interested in throwing pre-recorded loops together to create what sounds like music. For me, it was a HUGE rush.
Excited by my new toy, I created my first monstrosity. To listen, download it at http://www.MegaShare.com/232112
Emboldened by how the first one sounded, here is what I unleashed next -

Warning: The vocals have been rendered by an upcoming struggler with great potential. They may thus fall a bit short of high expectations (if any)!

My Kudos to the "Young & """Talented""" Shimesh Dasaniya... I think we have found a true and worthy successor to the "pretender" with a similar sounding name... to to give SD his due... He uses his Vocal Chords & not his Nasal glands... How good can he be!!! He might even be good enough to... Dare I say it... score music for Martin's next moview
@aditya: teri to Mortein...
Busta rhyme!
As long as you don't sing; i think its all good.
Garage Band is awesome; I don't use it a lot but I have a friend who does a one man show with his PowerBook running Garage Band.
Pretty slick stuff for a first timer.
