Roll call

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Hey dudes and dudettes! Haven't really been here in ages and stopped by to say hey. Any of the old-timers still around? What's up? Still in the studio business? How's it treating ya?

I'm slowly getting back in the game after a bit of a financial catastrophe and doing something completely different for a couple of years. Looking back that gave me a ton of perspective productionwise and really expanded my horizon of enjoying and working on music, making me drift a lot more towards more organic sounds rather than the super polished sonics I used to love and work towards to. At the moment I'm putting together a less-is-more setup for mixing and mobile tracking, and I'm loving it - pretty much set already, just waiting for a pair of new monitors to arrive!

Present.

Nice to see more old timers come to say hi. Glad you are doing good Jarkko.

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

I seriously might lose my mind if this place ever dies.

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

Also how come we all have 38 trophy points? What the fuck does that even mean?

 

[SocialNumb]

I got 48. It's just Trophy's for posting, getting likes, ect. It's built into the forum soft and I suppose it's to encourage people to participate. I can see it working well with a young crowd in a video game forum or something.

 

[~BURNY~]

Howdy! Still around, doing the same old shit.

 

[crillemannen]

I still check this forum but its kind of dead. I Have made allot of connections here and chat with some of the old timers on FB from time to time.

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Hey, good to see so many familiar avatars. What can I do with these trophy points? Can I use them to buy virtual coke?

I cleaned quite a bit of my Facebook friends list. Not because I hate everyone, but most of what I write is in Finnish and I thought it was probably pretty weird for others. FB really needs a way to easily put people in groups.

i remember the good old times when this forum had so many active members sharing info or just a few jokes every few minutes.
somehow it got pretty quiet here in the last few months, actually when the forum changed it looks, though i doubt this is the reason
why there is norhing going on anymore here. welcome back dude!

 

[DanLights]

Hey Jarkko! Nice to see you coming back here dude, I still log on almost every day but it's clearly not as exciting and cool as it used to be.

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Thanks guys! Dan, it's probably just because we aren't young and cool anymore

I remember this place had the occasional quiet period every now and then, but yeah, seems pretty silent now. Is there a new place that's hip or did everyone just get a haircut snd a real job?

 

[egan.]

Occasionally around

Best we have now are some select facebook groups. I'll hit you up on facebook and show you the way my not so young friend hahaha

 

[jipchen]

I still log-in from time to time but not much going on or at least rarely anything interesting anymore. Good to hear you're back in the biz

 

[Trevoire520]

Yeah still around, juggling live and studio work to scrape by (music scene in Scotland kinda sucks)

I come check the forum every couple of weeks or so but there's not much happening here these days tbh. The views/post ratio is really quite poor which doesn't help (440 views on my kick mic shootout thread and only 13 replies!)
