Well, it's the DtTvB!
I am 13 years old and I like to listen to music, especially Mods! I am not good at tracking, but I love to listen to it!
-
Wow, you are probably the youngest member on TMA! Welcome in our midst. I was about your age when I began tracking. No, I think I was 11, so it's not too late yet to give it a try :)
Don't be afraid to post your songs here. You can use the comments that you get for improving your tracking skills. :thumbup:

Wow, woolters started tracking at 11 years old, and the DtTvB is 13 (granted, not tracking YET)... now I feel like a late bloomer. :(
Oh well, welcomes to the young DtTvB, the weird and quick-to-edit-his-posts Pineconed, and the ever cryptic Zero Prophet. Don't let Eagle tell you to leave your sanity at the door; keep it with you! It's a good thing to have. :)

Hey! Losing your sanity is a good thing, I have! Ahehehehe! :P
Welcome to The Mod Archive Community Forums the... something, and leave your sanity at the door.
Rikimbo, while I was not tracking, I was making songs at the age of 8. But that does not count, I suppose?
-
I did my first tracks on the computer with 13 aswell, but that weren't MODs but a self-coded midi file format (and i had to PROGRAM those tracks, note after note...)
-
That's pretty much what I did, too. I used the GWBASIC sound command to make a few beeps and blops melodies.
Then around 2000 when I was 10, I figured out I could use actual samples with HyperCard to make the melodies. Still single-channel and I had no timing-method in HyperCard. Then later in 2004 I found out about ModPlug Tracker from a friend and I was stuck.
Is the history of your music creation the same, Saga?
:ot:, of course.

And I thought I was the young one on here - bah.

Well, if you consider the PC Speaker bleeps, I even started with 12 (when i wrote my first games) - but i play teh piano since i'm 6 and i did some (very very small) songs on the piano before. the first time i wrote "real" music was when i discovered modplug in 2004. if you're interested in my sucking midi tracks, you can get the program at http://sagagames.de/?programm=dmfmidi - note that you'll need the dosbox if you're running this under windows xp (incorrect timing)
-
Whoa, Saga. Our musical history is near identical. :O
-
Hehe... stuff liek that happens :> And even our age is nearly the same :o
