Ok...Hey all.....This might be the completly wrong place to ask this but I stubbled on this website whilst searching. I dont know whether any of you have heard of the band STATIC-X , but if you havent then I'll try to explain there music style.. It is coined as EVIL DISCO because its like.....hmmmm.... I guess like fast paced metal music but WAYNE(the singer)adds like.....programming? dancey sounding? bits into it like you know them sounds you get in dance music...the beeps and boops and the strange alien like sounds that loop and stuff. yeah well I might not be very good at explaining this BUT...... I wanna make that kinda music.... I play guitar in a band and thats my intrument of chocie...actually...my life , lol , but I want to dabble in this kind of music.....putting heavy guitars over dance techno patterns. if anybody wants to listen to any static-x with that kind of thing to know what Im talking about , download SHADOWZONE , or COLD.... this has the kind of thing in it that I want to do. The stuff at the start of shadow zone and basically all the way through COLD....... well finally the question is , are there any computer programs you can buy or download that let you do this kind of thing ? like I know theres dance ejay which Ill probably check out but you cant actually create your own bits you just use there samples. I already know how to record my guitar onto the computer so yeah its just a case of getting some program or something to make this happen. Alright sorry this was a bit long winded I hopie somebody can help. Thanx....

Heh. I can help... You need to learn a bit about synth and sampler programming, and how to program beats. Start off with some software synthesizers. Read everything you can find on sequencing, analog synth programming, and especially sampling. There's lots of good info here.

And for God's sake... Get some KMFDM

You'll do yourself a great service if you take Influx's sarcastic suggestion and check out the stuff people were doing 10 years ago in this style. Static-X is really watered down comparatively.

PS - If my last group had stuck around I probably would've opened their recent show in Rochester..

yeah, Im sarcastic. sorry.

Static-X tryin to cop some new "name" for a "new genre" is fcking stupid as it gets.

as for makin the tunes...hell...a sampler and some synths and a sequencer.

software or hard, take your pick!

oh, and....it aint quite the same, but...go check out Fear Factory "ReManufactured"

more metal/hardcore but fcking sick nonetheless
