I'm an old trackerhead... Ironically, I haven't done much since the world evolved and softsynths replaced crappy 8-bit samples :(

I'm fond of Vanguard, Triangle II and Claw, but then again, I'm pretty much into trippy trance :)

That's the thing - a fadeout clearly says "oh dear, I don't know how to end this" :) Just cut the leads and leave a straight beat with bass, percussion and FX running. Then cut the bass and later on cut the kick and something. The track is currently unmixable. Edit: By the way, I wonder if you'll sw...

Sounds nice :) The bass inversion happens too quickly, and the retrigger on the rimshottey thingy is a bit annoying. You could also use some "fat" in the second part of the song. Do a gradual buildup, you can buy a solid two minutes there. Make a bridge. Fatten it up and invert in the second part, a...

You need three drives.

One of them will be used for backup.

One will be used as source, the other as destination when you do downmixes and stuff.

Nose pimple? That's nothing.

I once had a pimple below my belly button. I thought I had swallowed a needle and/or that my stomach ruptured. Nothing was visible at first, but the pain was almost unbearable until the damn thing matured a couple of days later.

Exactly :)

You set the desired fan speed in relation to temperature, save that, and let RivaTuner load the profile on boot. It's completely invisible after that.
