homemade noize

The NIN remixsite has bee n up for a while the legal issue kind of ignored. It is pretty cool site and a lot of good mixes are there for you enjoyment. The DVD containing the music in multi-track forum is well put together. It is reasonable priced for what you get. It is not just the individual separate tracks but actually individual is it own sample. But better than that songs can be open in fully arranged Ableton Live projects. A live demo is included.

I am assuming the it does the same for Garage Band file open the same way. And there is project for Live Lite also. I have long got to spend a little time with it but is is great fun and makes remixing easier. I hope to find the time to get some of my own done which will require Herculean task of ending my endless tinkering which becomes really interesting and easy with this setup.

The is one small negative that I can find in this whole deal. I am a big fan of Nine Inch Nails but the mangled the distorted sounds don’t always lend themselves to some kind of remixing. I like to distort and mangle all the audio I can get my hands myself but most of the samples it all ready has been pretty process. The isn’t a lot of “clean” sounds to start with but that is to do with the nature of the music rather than any deficiency in the product. You always can mix in you own tracks though.

I there are more things like this to come and I hope it cross genre lines. It is wonderful for all us tinkerers.
