  1. Well the Baker Street song is from '78 so the most legit 80's sax would obviously be
  2. I'm seeing Steve Earle, Gerry Rafferty, AC/DC, Ozzy and U2. Above Steve Earle I don't know off the top of my head who wrote those
  3. Hey Notes, I bet you've played Baker Street live once or twice? Probably the best 80's sax song ever (Ok late 70's, but totally 80's vibe)
  4. This here is a killer deal for all 4 volumes of these Synth Magic Vector synths, normally 60£ for all that. Anyone into cool 80's soundtrack synths like from John Carpenter should grab all 4 volumes here for just £24, I would. Synth Magic is the one dev where I would buy kontakt just to use his stuff. His synths are sample based so you're playing with real sounds not modeled sounds. https://vstbuzz.com/deals/60-off-vector-x-bundle-by-synth-magic
  5. That zither's kinda dope, hook that up to a big muff
  6. Don't forget to pump these sounds through your amp sims, pitch shifters/octavers, modulators and feedback generators
  7. I like how you score your own music on the fly there in the beginning as you talk about a great cause. Was that intentional?
  8. Yeah just a server issue. It'll sort out real soon
  9. I don't even keep track of my money anymore.. I just buy stuff and see what happens
  10. Banjo became cool when Warrant used it in Uncle Tom's Cabin. Before that it wasn't cool and it wasn't cool after it either
  11. "If you love me then show me.. by playing better banjo"
  12. Where's this month's monthly vouxher? Did they go out yet? I don't want anything lol
  13. So the $25 voucher minimum has gone up from $32 to $49?
  14. I second the Beyerdynamics. Most comfortable headphone you're probably gonna find as they feel like you're wearing earmuffs.. they go completely around your ears instead of smashing up against your ears and have velvet/velour type padding and they're comfortable enough that you can forget you're wearing them. I track w/ Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO 250 ohm (closed back) And mix w/ Beyerdynamic DT 880 Pro 250 ohm (semi open back) If you only got one of those I'd recommend the closed-back DT 770 Pro 250 ohm and I'd get it here as they have a 15% off sale right now and you can get a new set of DT 770 Pro 250 ohm for $127.49 w/ the discount shipped free (normally $149.99) https://www.altomusic.com/beyerdynamic-dt-770-pro-headphones-250-ohms-repack-dt770pro250-c01#child_index=1612
  15. Get yourself some barrabilak.. keep your ticker going all night
  16. Even better if you can get it is the World's Best Chocolate bars that I sold for school as a kid and I think some kids still sell them but it's the best chocolate I've ever tasted.
  17. And they're not $5-$6 a box. But that's just when the Girl Scouts aren't around, because like I said helping them is cool.
  18. Helping out the Girl Scouts is cool, but when they're not around I'm pretty sure Keebler makes their cookies anyway and I'm pretty sure they make an equivalent of just about all the Girl Scout cookies including those Samoas.
  19. Lol I got the IK Compressors Suite for sale or trade for Ovox
  20. I'm finishing up my Doug Marks' guitar lessons from when I was 14. That's no joke. I bought his VHS lessons way back then and I just never got to complete them, I always went off on my own tangents. But I bought his new lessons couple years ago and I intend to finish them. Doug Marks was part of my childhood so they have sentimental value too. I mean, I used to prank call the guy and he was a good sport and humored a kid. You've got to make time to practice on your instruments themselves outside of songwriting. A lot of guys don't practice anymore and they just pick up the instrument to record something real quick and put it back down. The only time I really practice anymore on guitar and bass is when I'm sitting in front of the TV at night which is just about every night and that's good, because if I don't do that I may go 4 weeks without touching my bass guitar and while I'll not have lost any of my technique in that time my calluses will be gone by then.
