Timbaland goes ambient-house.

Welcome! this is my cobbled-together-in-two-minutes 'blog to host my own productions, mainly because McSleazy's GYBO doesn't allow direct links anymore after being told off by the thought police or someone. It's nice to have one place to store them anyway isn't it?


This is my first ever production/remix on the old PC, a little ambient housey version of the Timbaland (ft Nelly and Justin) song 'Give it To Me'. Any readers out there let me know what you think - I value any feedback, so let me know, and I still regard this as a 'work in progress' really, I'd like to fill out the sounds a little in future, but time is of the essence at the moment!

I used my sexy new keyboard - I'll put a pic of that up soon.
I also used ACID and Reason. - In fact most of my learning of these two programs was done in the last few days - the printer's run out of ink from so many instruction Adobe Acrobat files being printed out (even in draft quality!)
It was a bitch getting those two programs to work together using ReWire, and in fact I had to reinstall ACID for the pleasure.

Oh, incidentally, I'm going to enter this as part of my 'portfolio' as part of my application for Leeds College of Music. (Applications must be in by 29th May, so about 2 weeks for me to learn piano plus put some work together!)
So wish me luck!

Cheers
