Could have fooled me :) > Any tips for someone with *no* musical training but > wanting to learn? Find a way to bash at sounds. I use my normal qwerty keyboard in cheesetracker. Slowly, I've learned what sounds nice and what doesn't. A midi keyboard would probably be better, but I've got so used to this layout that it's quite natural for me to play (slowly) what I want. The interesting thing is that the kinds of things I do have names - things are in a "key" and such like, even though I couldn't say I knew about it until someone pointed it out. I suppose listening to music just puts those patetrns in your head, even if you don't have names for them. > Really like all your music James.
