I do the genre that comes out of my DAW at the end of the process!

Suppose it tends to be that dance/edm vein you spoke of.

Hi all! I thought it would be nice to have a place to discuss in real time our musical escapades during the week. There was an IRC channel back in 2012 but it seemed to have died during that year.

To that end, I have created a Discord server for us. You can join here!

Discord is chat program that combines the best of Skype, IRC and Teamspeak/Mumble/Ventrilo. The intent is to use the text chat functions but there is voice chat available too. It can be accessed directly from the browser with or without a Discord account, and if you sign up (for free) you can also access the desktop and mobile clients.

Please note that when you join the first time you'll automatically be connected to the voice server. Just hit the disconnect button and it will remember that for next time, assuming you created an account.

Hope to see you there!

Note: I have no affiliation with Discord and the server is hosted by Discord itself, not me. I'm also more than happy to turn over administrative privileges to the WeeklyBeats staff.

Nothing, that's why WB2016 is so important! tongue

I dropped WB12 (and didn't participate in WB14), and it was due to the workload I had with school at the time. I regret that a lot, so my advice would be to suck it up, and release -something-, even if it's just some random junk you put together in an hour. No-one on the site will judge you for it, and if it's a competition, it's one with yourself.

In this case I feel it's true that something not great is better than nothing at all.

I'm going to break the habit I've had since 2012 and actually release music, it'll be great.

Could definitely use the motivation WB provides. Haven't participated since 2012, but boy do I miss it.

EDIT: Threw a tweet at Lazerbeat and trash80 with #weeklybeats2016, dunno who is actually involved in running this site but i was fairly sure they were... haha
