How old are you and where are you from?

I’m a 25yr old Russian man-child, currently living in Serbia.

Always loved all kinds of electronic music, but it really came together when a “trancecore” band called Enter Shikari introduced me to the joy of sequencers.

Bought my first machine at 16 (a KORG Electribe MX) and have finally acquired the a4 about a year ago.

Hello… I don’t see an introductions thread, so here goes.

My name is Daniel and I have made music under the monikers Sauce and, currently, SnowMetal.
I owned a v1 Machinedrum about 10 years ago, used it extensively w/ the Roland V-Synth. I have played about 600 live shows since the late 80’s. I have a lot of YouTube tutorials up, covering a variety of hardware and software.

I’ve had plans on getting an Octatrack for about five years or so, and I got one around four months ago. A few days ago, I put up my first videos concerning this machine, linked below… I plan on learning and contributing much. Cheers.

Last year I decided to buy the A4, and a few months ago the OT, best decision ever!

So…I’m also a real vinyl addict but my main focus now is making music with these machines, still in the learning process :joy_cat: :kissing_cat:

Hey, everyone.
I’m 30, born and living in São Paulo, Brazil (am I the only brazilian here?!)
Studied bass for quite a long time (and listened to more prog rock then I should) until I decided to drop everything and focus on electronic music, sound engineering and so on. I’m also a Max programmer and very interested in multimedia stuff.
Hard to say the main influences, but the things that are always present are Einstürzende Neubauten, Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, Aphex Twin, Tom Zé, Alva Noto, Tom Waits, Arrigo Barnabé, Mingus, Steve Reich, Patife Band, Kraftwerk and the list goes on.
