"I lost dozens of melodies and ideas because I did not write them down or didn't hum them into some electronic device for later.
Really, a countless number. Sometimes I assured myself that I will remember it by the time I get to my keyboard, but…"

"Hey Steve. Thanks for the elaborate post first of all. A dedicated showreel might do the work better, I agree.

"I've had some success with games for the App store (both iPhone/iPad and Mac), purely by contacting developers by e-mail. I've done more projects for free than I've been paid for, but I have managed to get up to a few hundred pounds to do an app on…"
"Thanks for the advice,
I did my share of free work, to tell you the truth. Now I'm running a business and it's more difficult to spend hours, composing something voluntarily. But yeah, it's like investing in stocks. Hoping that one day, their value…"

"Hi,
Just a suggestion as I am in a similar situation with film & game connections. See if you can get in touch with students that are close to finishing their degree in areas of game making. Indie games are becoming really popular. If you look at…"

"Really expensive strings - like Project sam - Symphoiba sound really close to the real thing, if you know how to apply them. Scott Miller said:

"Why are you working with cubase AND audition? Mixing is not only about panning. That slightly covers it.
Allays be careful with reverb on instruments with a low end registry. That'll turn up into a mashup of random sounds and rumble. "

"It's a pretty simple and nice composition. The sound and the arrangement problematic to me. Of course you have tempo and sound mix issues. The end is very uncertain. It looks like you didn't know yourself how to finish it.
You should try to start…"

"Checked the website. From someone who's been selling his music via royalty free websites for 2 years now, it doesn't look too promising. Who usually needs sheet music? Musicians. And they are the ones the try to make some money out of their works in…"
"Excellent. Especially liked the idea with the bottle with the gasses. Very clever. If you add some instruments to that beat, it can be priceless. Check out my track - the closest to that genre I gotClockshop Closing Hours.mp3"
"well, me I don't... whatever happens it is I who created it.. well.. first of all the original idea was,, "to make music for them" and that's it, we're commissioned right?... I always own my music... but of course... I'll not use on another…"
"Again, you have voiced the same question I have periodically. "Will my musical creativity run dry?"

"There are no rules about it. My goal is always to be creative with the titles as much as possible. No matter at what stage I do it. It gives character to the music. Title should be appealing, special and reflect the essence of the music. Tell it's…"
