So many people virutally base their life around their music, but I fid that so little ever attempt to make it on their own!
Lets hear it! Do you make your own music? Do you like to jam with any friends? Just how into it are you? What are your favorite instruments and role-models? I'll break the ice

While you can find just about any kind of music on my Ipod, I would say that I'm an electronic-music kind of guy, which can include anything from underground techno (ritchie hawtin), to drum and basss (kenny ken), to experimental weirdness (aphex twin, squarepusher, plastikman), to hip hop (Big, Dj Premier).
I recently finished getting my studio all up and working. It's in my house with my parents, and my long time buddy also has a mini studio at his place and we kind of go back and fourth.
I've chosen to not fully study music, IE a music recording school
like some of my friends are. Rather, I'm about to go for a minor in Business and a major in some kind of music industry if I can find it.
Here's what my studio is based on. I've been collecting instruments for a few years now. I really started with nothing and slowly got more and more. I'm genuinely interested to hear what you guys have to say. Speak up, whether you've got a full-blown digital/audio recording studio, or if you simply "use two sticks to make [music] in the nature"-chilli peppers

I spend lots of time on recording forums and many of the people simply aren't...well, they aren't TFP'ers! I'm just looking to strike some conversation, technical or not, with people 'more close to home', if you know what I mean
