Re: Grab this new free E-BOOK on Live from a Certified Trainer

Cool idea... however, are you able to disclose what you do with the email address's you harvest for this? There's no privacy/disclaimer or anything and my inbox is already flooded with spam/promo's. Hey mate. Good question. I thought there was a note about that, so my apologies! The e-mails are tot...

Re: Beginner getting hardware

+1 to Tarekith's recommendation for the MPK25. You can drop cash on something cheaper, but in my experience it just breaks and winds up in the landfill. Akai gear is made to last, very high quality stuff. Plus on the MPK25 you get drum pads, knobs and buttons, plus the keyboard. Pretty much everythi...

Re: Are There Rules to Writing Music?

Of course there are rules. But those rules describe what people usually do, rather than what people always should do. It's easy to say that "if it sounds good, it is good;" but as one gains experience, things that used to sound good might no longer do so, and things that once didn't sound...

Are There Rules to Writing Music?
