$1200 shipped or BO!

sorry to see you dropping off the mnm, you not doing music now?

JS - long time no see! I hope you're not selling up...

Hello guys. Yeah, I'm not really into making music as much. It just makes me angry and I don't enjoy many aspects of it. I love making loops, I like writing lyrics, but I hate recording, mixing, etc. However, I'm not content with just making loops and never making a recording. I don;t think I'm done with music completely. I think I'm going to start making songs with just an acoustic guitar and vocals again. I do have two new songs I hope to finish with the MnM and EMX-1.

Been doing a lot of Photography lately, so as long as I'm creative with something, I'm good.

I would sell this for $1160 shipped.

, but I hate recording, mixing,

Thats why top line bands, musos, anyone with a lot of $, etc. pay big bucks to go to
big studios with pro engineers and big name producers?

You should try to track down some demos of songs you love
and notice the diff between that and the final release, sometimes a BIG BIG difference

Sure some people can get great results from much mess but not many.

Good luck with whatever you do musically or otherwise. Hope to see you pop up around here every now and again... if you end up doing vocals and acoustic then please post them here.

Btw I you fancy sharing some of your photography PM me a link.

i'd love to see the photos too js.

stay well.

Yeah man, share your photos! I know we'd all love to see them.

I've been around you in these and other parts of the net long enough to know how frustrating the music making process has been for you at times. At the end of the day, if you just consider it a hobby and you don't enjoy it... then c'est la vie. What's the point?

Although, knowing how much time you've given it, I have a feeling that it is something you truly cherish and I hope that you can ultimately appreciate your creations for what they are. In my personal opinion, at times, you seem to have held yourself to far too exact of a standard. Your music is obviously something that a lot of people appreciate, and I can tell you, as someone who has engineered several recognized releases, that your music has never seemed inferior in any way to me. You seem to be someone who has the deep seeded need and urge to create, so let your creations be what they will and enjoy them however they come and whatever form they take. I understand that we all struggle with this at times, and it's easier said than done, but I just wanted to offer you my thoughts and encouragement.

Peace brother.
