Inspiration

Well it seems inspiration has found me.

After about 3 months of my (musical) keyboard and 3 brand new music authoring packages staring me in the face and never quite getting enough inspiration to put them to good use, opportunity came in the form of a mini audio advert on TripleJ FM.

Seems they have some sort of a remix competition going on. The prize isn't all that much, just meet the artist who wrote the song up for remixing. Would be interesting no doubt but not what I would call high excitement. Here's the link for the comp's details:
triple j events: lyrics born remix competition"

The most frustrating thing I have found when I take samples or try to remix on my own is that it's so damn hard seperating the vocals from the background. Atleast in this comp they have done that for you.

This should be interesting to say the least....
Work is still going psycho and I am preparing to move house so i'm not sure how much time I will find to do such a project. Still I really want to give this a great shot. Time to grab the 30 day demo of Kontact (computer driven sampler) and check out all those new lovely soft synths to see what I can come up with.
