Shit You Made When You Were Young

My second track. Well, but something incomplete. Just a concept.

Ha, this sounds like music from a Pop Cap game.

 

Your '09 ones are definitely way better, especially the first one you posted. Nice job.

 

Ha ha. Thanks. And yeah, I didn't know shit about making music on computers when I was 16.

Here´s something I found lurking around in the attic (metaphor) of my computer.

I don´t think I ever finished it, but this is all that came out of it apparently.

.. I can´t upload it, oh well !

i did this when i was either fifteen or sixteen (2002-2003). really should have been working in ableton live instead of fruity loops.

Not bad. Sounds like you were listening to Vibert at the time.

 

The stuff people made when they were younger than me is better than the stuff I make now lol.

i heard the exact same shit when i first posted it many moons ago, no joke. never really dug vibert much, though, oddly enough lol

 

edit: and interestingly enough, my recent shit isn't that compositionally different from my old stuff. A section of sample-led melody, B section of keys-led melody, marrying the two at the end.

I made this relatively simple mix of Polygon Window back in 2006. Could probably make a different (longer/complex) version of this in the future.

This was a long time ago, back when I was essentially someone else...

My friend and I made this in 1992 on a 4-track cassette recorder.

It's about this scene from the Dark Crystal.

 

cool man, was waiting for some chamberlain whining =)

Nothing online for 21 yet but I have some particularly dank tracks on the go

 

I had stuff online dating back to when I was 9 but that was on Geocities so

I did this in 1997 with a highschool friend, I don't remember what KP stands for or why we called it Meine Untergang (bad german even lol), but it's amusing and sort of interesting sometimes... it's mostly ReBirth and Cubase VST + guitars and memo recordings. http://missingsense.net/album/meine-untergang

First song I ever made when I was just about to turn 11 (almost 10 years ago) in garageband.

 

 

Just got ahold of an old hard drive with a bunch of garageband stuff. It's all complete shit.

Some of the first things I ever made after I bought a laptop specifically to make music with 10yrs ago

 

At the time I was staunchly against using presets so sampled all my own sounds using the laptop's inbuilt mic (lol)

**bonus**

 

So I would also do improv with a couple of friends. This is me and another guy noodling on our computers in his bedroom. Recorded through a cassette dictaphone pinned to the ceiling.

94 - 95 jungle/gabber.

EMX-1, ESX-1 I borrowed from a friend, Micron and 4 track recording it all, recorded live in one jam.

 

 

Made this in 2008 or 2009, so I was 18 or 19 at the time. I have earlier stuff, but not online.

this is a thing back when I still wanted to make vidyagames. It's just midi with soundfonts (remember soundfonts)

 

I wish I had found out about stuff like Jeskola Buzz sooner, and modular synths/ways to create unique sounds, but the date says 2005 so it's not that old I guess. I distinctly remember getting into Buzz in 2006

 

I think I made a lot of midis before this, not sure. Also Mario Paint songs lol

man this thread makes me feel like an old man a little bit :D

did this 'noise' cassette back in 1996 (when i was around 16)

here is the whole thing divided into sides

https://soundcloud.com/fluorescentgrey/side-1-please-do-not-buy-this
https://soundcloud.com/fluorescentgrey/side-2-please-do-not-buy-this

"The very first florescent grey recording (it was spelled florescent until 1998). Recorded in the garage of the house i grew up in using a karaoke stereo system, a bunch of turntables and 80's/90's children's musical toys. This has never been heard outside of a handful of people and after listening to it you will understand why. Aaron Epperson collaborated on Track 1. Check out Side 1 as well."

Man, wish I had my old electronic stuff. It was all on a laptop that got stolen.

Found this in my archives from 2002. No idea what track it was a meant to be a remix of, but it's a remix of one of his tracks anyway (have it labelled helpfully as 'spat remix' !):

Even at just over 3 minutes its still about 5 minutes too long.

The oldest stuff I'm ever putting up online is from 2002. First 9 tracks on here: https://skink.bandcamp.com/album/skink-mmii-mmiv-tsv-archive-series-vol-1 I used to have loads more stuff from around this time, probably about fifty or so more. All lost in a hard drive failure, much to my annoyance, as I tend to hoard all of my stuff as much as possible. I do have a few things going back to 1996. I know I made two albums worth of stuff at least back then. I destroyed one of them recently for some reason I can not recall. Sad really, I don't know where the other one is now though. Blah, blah.
