Hi Simon,
Keep the Faith wurde zum dritten mal in Folge zum meistgespielten Track des Jahres unserer Radiosendung (Code Red) gewählt. Des weiteren wurde der Track im aktuellen Mix für dnbaachen.de verarbeitet. Danke für dieses wunderbare Stück Musik.

Hi Simon,

I stumbled on your site while looking for Reason tutorials. I downloaded your track Traveller and just wanted to say I consider it a sublime piece of music. I've since listened to that whole album on Spotify. It is excellent, but Traveller still stands out. I look forward to your future releases.

Hello Mr. Gasherd! Glad to read you like the new sounds. As for the movie links, you're absolutely right, I should update them :-)

Hoi Simon, I like the Indianerlied a lot. Why did you stop going to the movies? No source of inspiration there anymore? In your link list the "newest" movie is Abyss from 1989, twenty years ago.

Hello Simon,

I have surprised to see the names of " Radical Rhythms and Kosmic Free Music Foundation" in your myspace. These name have made me remember a few years behind my old computer 486 with FT2. I remember to have all the tracks of RR and KFMF, a special tracker for them.
Today, I give you my respects for the good moment that they made me pass.

Hi, nun muss ich mal n dickes Lob dalassen. Seit Jahren bin ich nun Fan, und endlich schaff ichs mal ins GB. hab die Because We Can auf CD und die läuft immer noch Heavy Rotation, war in letzter Zeit sehr beschäftigt, aber werd mich nun mal auf Santorin umguggn und zuschlagen. Cloudspotter is genial! Jue

Ben

Simon, I love the fresh dub track you gave away just now with your newsletter. I use Cubase and Soundforge too.

Wanted your opinion why do you use RazorLame over batch conversion in SoundForge? I have never been happy with Soundforge mp3 encoding (I love everything else it does) Would you recommend RazorLame?

Keep up the great work! Your music and your tutorials rock.

Hello Simon-
I appreciate Chicago blues and drum style of Buddy Rich, from times ago.
Prefer the slower, bass beat of rhythm and blues -- Sure do like the appearance of your website.

To Simon V

Ive been fan from you from day 1, I lost allot of tracks due to hd failure. and i see now you sell the tracks on cd you had back then for free.

Damnit so hard to get them here. Anyways i always loved and still do love your work!

Why ? for the simple reason that you are very different in styl then for instance big names. Like EZ rollers, Goldie, Grooverider ectra.

I found you back then true mp3.com (the good old days) Now im back downloading the free songs you offer to us as fans.

Thank you very much for that. And i hop Simon that you will make music with emotional value for me for manyu years to come.

@ tom cruise..

You are right, that makes you a mass follower. I dont care what a magazine say what a hit is or not. For my heart most of Simons tracks are a HUGE hit.

So with if i were you find a different hobby instead of trying to be a smartass.

The end..Simon keep it going freund!

I can't say how much I thank you for your drum patterns. I'm new at making music and always loved D'n'B. Creating a 2-Step beat was easy but I listened to the Amen Break for hours and couldn't figure it out (I didn't want to use a sample).

Thank you for finally letting me make progress.

Greetings from Germany!

Hello Simon,
Thank you for shearing your experience!
I have a question. How do you think about Fruity Loop? Would you call it as useful as reason?

savino
switzerland, 2007-12-30

Hello Simon

I found your site while searching for drum n bass patterns and tutorials for reason. you provided exactly what i was looking for, and after i saw that these are rns files i was blown away :D
many thanks for sharing the effort and providing such useful things for the masses.

i also listened to some of the tracks, and i love the deep and atmospheric drum n bass stuff! lovely harmonies and pads blended with some rather speedy but still chilled drums...! that is exactly what i like about it.
i also tried to create this kind of style, but after hearing yours i am sort of unmotivated... ;)

keep up the spirit!
