FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What made you decide to get into making music?
A: I've always wanted to make my own dance/techno songs since i was a kid. Growing up, I mostly listened to dance music on the radio (songs made by artists such as SNAP!, Culture Beat, Captain Hollywood Project, La Bouche, Livin Joy, etc...).Q: How long have you been making music?
A: Since 2008.Q: What program(s) do you use to make your music?
A: It's a combination of both MTV Music Generator (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_%28software%29) & LMMS (https://lmms.io/).
Wow I didn't know you made that many albums
@::CMG (UTOPIA):: , I thought your albums were just the first two and the one with Dirty Talk remixes on it. I'm gonna have a listen soon. By the way, Tombstone Terror, Silius and the hcore clap Dirty Talk remix that sounded like 90s eurodance were my favorites from you.
:3=
Yea that was my mistake not updating the first post years ago on the other site(s). By the time I learned about soundcloud, I just did all my uploads/updates on that, specially since everyone else seemed to have a SC account at the time. Glad to hear you like some of my stuff :) As soon as i finish the new album art for the other stuff i'll stick them on the first post
Don't worry about it. On a side note, since your remixes are now so hard to find (I was lucky to have a copy of Dirty Talk (H-Core Clip Clap Remix).mp3 on my PC and I am listening to it in loop right now), have you ever tried doing the following trick to bypass Youtube filters and avoid your main account being shut down? What people usually do is that they speed up their songs by 2-3% (or maybe more? I forgot how high they need to be sped up) in a way that the pitch is increased slightly. You could also create a separate Google account that is not linked to your main one, other than via the recommended channels section.
If you make new albums or art make sure to bump this topic, though, because the forums don't notify users of edits :)
EDIT: Also one annoyance about Mediafire is that in order to download multiple files at once, we need to upgrade to a paid account.

1, Defenitely will :) In fact i just finished the new album art & ID Tags for my 7th album so now it's up on the 1st post
2. Dang, didn't know that :-\ well thats what the ZIP files are for i guess, lol.
Oh wait, I didn't spot the zip files lol. My bad. Those seems to work. I didn't know Mediafire allowed files this large. Also backup your stuff in case Mediafire went the same route as Megaupload or Yoyogames sandbox.
Finally had time to do the new cover & ID tags for my 8th album "GEMS (The Green Album)". This album is different than the rest as it is completely chiptune (except the last song, which is a bonus song that was made back when I started making music). The instruments are from Wacky Worlds (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive) and are all from the Green Group (Drums, Bass, Synth, & Guitar). The "GEMS" part represents the sound driver that was used in the console to produce those sounds (more info here (http://segaretro.org/GEMS)). First album completely made on LMMS. Hope you enjoy.
Hm I'll take a look and listen to it later. To be honest I didn't listen to the other albums (except what I downloaded in 2008-10) yet because I didn't notice at first that there were zip files of all songs and I didn't feel like spending hours downloading 100+ songs one by one (Mediafire doesn't allow downloading more than 1 file at a time, so your computer requires constant attention), but I'll download them soon. :)
New album on the first post (86.3 WCMG). Songs 1, 2, & 7 are originals, the rest are remixes. I'm almost done re-doing the rest of the album art & re-tagging the rest of my completed songs. I've been in the works on a couple new albums...
- Foonmani - An album that remixes the songs from Foonmix by using samples from BMIIDX & DDR
- GEMS (The Pink Album) - Basically a "jazzier" chiptune album (I.E. Wacky Worlds Jazz instruments)
- An album that consists of nothing but PARANOiA remixes
- An album that consists of mash-ups... new ones & re-done old ones
- An album of remixed Knuckles Chaotix songs using MTV Music generator/Music 2000 instruments
Whenever I have the time to complete them I'll add them to the first post as well
Does this one include Dirty Talk and some of your older covers Sega Genesis songs?
On a side note do you still use MTVMG on a regular basis? I also wonder if you ever found a workaround for the mono reverb?

- Did you even look at the song list for the album I added?
- What Sega Genesis songs are you talking about specifically?
- I have no idea what you mean regarding the "mono reverb" thing
For some reasons I missed the song from the list. Not sure why. My bad >.< (also weren't there multiple versions of it?)
By the way I listened to said album and enjoyed it :) (as well as the inclusion of Dirty Talk). As for the Sega Genesis song I mean Tombstone Terror and Jellyfish Club. Actually I don't even remember if they were remixes of Sega Genesis songs, but the sounds often sound similar. :P
By mono reverb, I mean that when you use the reverb feature in Music 2000 PC, Music 2002 and Digital Hitz Factory, it will sound mono, while in Music 2000 PS1, MTVMG2 and MTVMG3 it will sound stereo. To workaround this you have to change some note panning but I always felt that it was still not deep enough.
Do you think you could post a recording of "Trancer 44 KHz" riff from the PC version so I could compare with the PS1 version?
Also listening to Tsuopiamush again brought back old memories :)

No biggie, but yea just an FYI, I released Tombstone Terror a while ago (it's in my first album "Planet Utopia"). As for Jellyfish Club, it's going in my "GEMS (The Pink Album)" album, which will probably be released sometime this month at the pace i'm going. (I already got like 5-6 songs completed for the album)
Glad you like my stuff so far though :) and yea when i get home, I'll record a sample of that and stick it as an attachment here.
Yeah I first heard Tombstone terror in 2008 or 09 I think.
I like your style overall. Btw TIMGUL is back online in read only mode (see CW front page)
On a side note, since you often managed to make original songs sound much better by remixing them (for example, Wynter Gordon's Dirty Talk song, aside from the intro and chorus, is kinda mediocre IMHO, while your version is amazing), I wonder if you would be successful at making the following song sound good by remixing it? :trollface:

This is a Sega Genesis game, btw (homebrew, but apparently unnoficial repro cartriges exist)
I like those album covers of yours, do you draw them yourself? ^^
Thanx, but no I can't draw for c on the computer, lol. I used GIMP to create them, and by "create" i mean "find a random image & silhouette on google, use flamingtext.com to create the text, then put them together". However the "UTOPIAMIX" art is the only one i actually "designed" it to be similar to the DDR USA PS1 art.
Hey nice to see you again CMG :D
As for drawing stuff, I personally just recycle old fractals I made 8+ years ago. Basically, an unused 2008 Omnimaga site background was later recolored for use with my canceled album Magic Hardcore, then in 2010 it was recolored again to be used as new Omnimaga background (which was used until 2013, so both of you probably saw it before). In 2011, I re-used Omnimaga background in Tales of the Knight of the Moon (in perspective, 3D ish mode). Then in 2012 I recycled the Magic Hardcore cover again for use in A Decade of Magic Hardcore and Omni Dance, then in 2014 in In UK Hardcore we Trust. And finally, in 2016 I did a major spiral effect on the In UK Hardcore we trust album cover, added a start background in the middle and basically that's where those album covers are from. :P

On a side note CMG I finally had time to listen to more of your discography. Cloud Cruiser, especially the fast version, are fricking amazing *.* (even if they use premade samples I like how well they were used). Also Modern Thoughts is another of my favorites so far.
I have one suggestion, though: For the second Cloud Cruiser song, maybe specify it's a remix, because in my playlist both have identical titles. :P Anyway I like the happy hardcore style of that album so far (Channel Utopia). I think
@kotu might like. Also OMG at that Super Mario 64 Dire Dire Rocks remix *.*

I like that kind of music... Even tho it's pretty different from what I usualy listen to :thumbsup:
Also I like the way you name your songs... Lemmings Underground Party is just great :love:

I actually DID specify that it was a remix, the thing is that my ID3tag editor has an option to separate the subtitles from the actual title, but most music players don't display it, hence why the file name of the songs have the subtitle on them so that there wouldn't be any confusion.
Otherwise, glad you guys like my stuff :) I'll work on more stuff soon, just been busy with stuff unrelated to music.
old skool

Oh I see. iTunes doesn't show the file name by default so I didn't notice at first
Decided to make a BandCamp account (https://supersamplestar.bandcamp.com/releases). Updated first post with link. Only got the first album up so far, will do the others during the weekend. All albums/songs are free to download and for those of you that don't have an account, you are allowed 100 listens on each song before the site decides to do that annoying "join for unlimited listens" pop-up
Also the song's have been properly tagged on the site... no more "subtitles not showing on almost every player" issue.
Awesome CMG :D, it's one of my favorite sites. Also nice to see you again.

lol thanx. Also the default setting in BandCamp is that if you don't have an account, you're only allowed to play the same track (or 3 different tracks) 3 times before they force you to make an account. The Song/Album owner can change that to set it for 100 plays for non-account users. When you click your name on the top it'll give you 3 options (Profile, Tools, Home). Click Profile, then scroll all the way down to "Streaming" and it'll say " Limit paid tracks to (insert number here) plays before requiring purchase". Not sure if that applies to free tracks though, haven't tested it myself.
EDIT: Although now that I think about it, it could just be for people that have an account but are playing other people's songs. Correct me if i'm wrong though
That never happened to me. Weird.
Yeah that seems like a recent feature because I didn't notice it before. I have my albums set to 10 plays I think. I think this is for when free listeners want to stream paid music. Once they reach the limit they have to buy the album/track.
By the way
@::CMG (UTOPIA):: you should set all your albums that contains no covers/remixes to "let fans pay more than they want." . I noticed that some fans will still donate a bit of extra when that's enabled. :3=
Just DL'd all the stuff on your bandcamp page, CMG; I remeber digging a few of your bits and pieces back in the TIMGUL days, so I'm looking forward to hearing it all :)
I also echo the sentiment of setting your stuff to a "pay what you want" model; I know I like to throw cash down for music I enjoy when I've got the pocket money to spare, and going the "pay what you want" route stops it from being brickwalled for folks who can't pay for it for whatever reason. That's the model I use for my own releases via Bandcamp.
I sometimes get $10 for 1 album O.O
