Just thought it'd be cool to get a rough idea of where in the world everybody on the forums is from.
The US. Mid North-Central. Sadly in an area with no opportunity and no growth. Wife and I really want to leave. Although beautiful, you can kick any sort of potential success out the window where I'm located. My home is a great place to die. Hahaha.
EDIT. There is also no culture whatsoever. Everyone is a zombie here. No forward-thinkers. No job security or career paths. I live in a town controlled by a select few. It's crippling to be here.
US- long island New york.
Just wanna say FXXK yeah !!!!!
@Audiogus that drawing is great!
I drive 30-45 min to and from work each day, and y'all have me wanting to find a bus/train route instead.
Austin, Texas, y'all! Actually moved to Manor, just about 10 min east of Austin, but no one knows where that is. It's like living in Mesa, AZ, you just tell everyone you live in Phoenix.
Stick a pony in my pocket, i'll fetch the suitcase from the van hahahaha.
It's weird I find that living in different parts of the world tend to inspire different amounts of creativity and energy. Like it flows more depending on where I am. Not sure why.
I like this mindset. "Be useful. Be creative." This is an attitude that wins.
I actually had a project I started once meant to be used for creative and useful people. It was an affiliation program where everyone involved made each other business. A pooled cooperative team. Everyone was paid through shares and marketing one another. Never started the idea fully. Only with friends and only wrote a business plan. Don't know why your post reminded me of it.
Anyways, enough of my blabber. Cool thread.
This is what I love about iOS and iOS communities it brings people all over together with a common passion music. Even though we bicker,fight,say mean words to each other .
With the way we can connect these days, I've made music with people from Canada, Sweden, UK, France, Germany, Africa, Spain...the list goes on. No they were not hits and weren't released on major labels but the experience and stuff I've learned In a couple years are priceless. I'm in a WhatsApp chat group with producers, singers, rappers from many places and consider them family. The chat's been going on since 2012, can't believe it. All this because back in 2011 I decided to get an iPad even tho I was against everything Apple . Coming from the small island of Haiti 🇭🇹 to migrating to the US back in 1995 when I was 15 (I didn't wanna leave) music's always been there. Now with BM3, I'm almost never bored.
Beats, Beaches and Bitc....nevermind. Ain't hard to tell where I am.
Same. Spend most of my time while on iOS trying to learn BM3 now. Gadget and GB are still the easiest goto to get a loop out tho. It's almost like cheating man.
Where's that at LA or MIA?
Neither. Close though. I was in Fort Lauderdale mentoring troubled kids in a Boys Home. Usually take em to the beach because it's free and there's nothing to break. I do live in Miami however. Just about 30 minutes South.
LA beaches I've been too have darker sand and water with huuuuuuge palm trees everwhere.
I... forgot how much trackers are in my DNA... eventually these bits will find their way into BM3... I tell myself.
