These are my 2 cents, Trash80:

- Milkytracker, a contemporary Fast Tracker II clone available for all major platforms (win,mac,linux... and Android!). It supports the old Amiga MOD format, Impulse Tracker's IT and XM. It's a little bit limited compared to modern things like Renoise (which is excellent and quite affordable, but propietary).

- LittleGPTracker: another tracker with an interface almost identical to LSDJ, but handles WAV samples and decent polyphony. Along with all desktop systems, it runs in the PSP, the GP32, the Dingoo and some other handhelds.

- NitroTracker, a tracker for the Nintendo DS, with no effects, but extremely portable. I use it for sketching some songs on the go

That's what it comes to trackers.

P.S.: The Ardour open source DAW is worth checking, also, but I'm quite unexperienced on it. I've seen some people here using LMMS on Linux (kinda public FLStudio)

Will add some as soon as they come to mind

Cheers!

I'm not admin, but if you click on "music", then "year", then filter by "my music", you should get it.

Hi Guys! Really missed you all

I started messing with my samplers yesterday, and the track is already cookin'

Technical Question:By any chance, is the old site still stored/archived anywhere, so I could back up some notes about some songs I made

... This really really really means a lot to me. I've been waiting for months!!!

Please count me in... I do have a list of all-time WB favourites, although as everybody, I've missed a lot of people's great music

Hello Mr. Harmonic. Last time I messed up was september the 22nd. I'm in a hotel, started submitting around 23:25 GMT my 6,5 megs. I've tried twice. Incomplete upload, stalled.

Could I please have and upload link (week 45)? I know I've abused your patience several times this year, man.

http://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?has … 3f04235914

Thanks man! Really appreciated!

It took another failed upload, then I went down to the hotel lobby and upload my thing a couple of meters from the main WiFi access point, still wearing the upper part of my pijamas.

Peace and thank you!

My upload didn't went up as expected, Mr Harmonic. Could you please help?

I thought pressing "Submit" at the begining of the upload will ensure everything goes OK, but it freezed at 99%. Too damn close to try a reload.

Thanks in advance, sir

Dear Sir Mr Philarmonic

I've been trying to upload my file several times like a dummy until I realized my project was 18,3 megabytes big, so when I finally re-rendered and trimmed to fit in it's final 14,7 Mb, deadline was through.

Could I possibly have a new upload link, while I learn again how to count megabytes smile

Your patience is really appreciated. Thanks in advance

http://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?has … 3f04235914 why is it so big?!

It's an ambient track almost seven and a half minutes long rendered at 320 kb with split stereo... Maximum quality for my 3-4 minutes pieces were never an issue, until now. I hardly ever go beyond five minutes, so... It's good to know now.

Thanks very much for such a quick response, as usual smile

Dear Mr Phil Harmonic:

I'm another loser uploading my stuff in the last fifteen minutes... Script got stalled at around 60% then jumped to 100% and I submitted... But nothing happened

Can I possibly have a reupload, please?

Thanks for the kind upload. Stalled once more, but I finally have it online

Possible controversy: This week I used a free recreation of a famous hip hop vocal snippet (the "I wanna rock right now!" part from Rob D and EZ Rock. It comes out once at 2:26

I took it from an old Future Music magazine, and I pitched it up and filtered it. If you listed to the original, sounds like a "Dance With The Stars" lame cover version, but anyway, the phrase is recognizable. It's supposed to be a no-rights-reserved cover to teach production methods but...

If you decide to take it down, could I possible place a version without the offending sample?
