    Hello fellas,
    The last couple of months were life-punching times. I got fired from my job and the bank is taking the house I'm living with my family due to a loan that I am not able to pay anymore.. I already sold my home studio gear but thats not enough to pay when we are taking about a loan on bank. Sounds like a good story huh? The sad news is that it's true!

    Although I am that kind of man that dont likes charities so I've decided to sell all my work and projects that I had plans to release them in the near future but life has other plans for me right now! Any source of cash is now a must for me!!

    I've studied sound-engineering when I was younger, so on all of my projects you will find advanced stuff that may help you on your career as a producer.If you are interested into supporting me by buying any projects that would be great, I work on ableton DAW and will give you the names of the plugins used on every project . You can hear any of my work, a 40-50 bucks is fair enough i think but if you cant afford that then you can give whatever you feel to.. All you have to do is just pm me or leave a message

    P.S If something were not clear let me know.. thanks in advance

    It makes me angry to read a story such as yours. This sort of thing happened to me almost 20 years ago, and I've never recovered, emotionally, financially, nor psycholigically. I hope that you fare better than I had, and regain enough solid ground to have room for music-making again.

    I clicked on this thread to read about why you were Retiring & Giving away your music & projects. You may want to change the wording in the title for this thread. IMHO, To say you're "Giving away", when you're Sell is a little disingenuous.

    In the end, I hope your luck changes for the better.

    Btw didnt mean to quote the actual topic apologies...
     
  10. Been there. Sorry that you are going through tough times and I hope it begins turning around for you. Most of us are standing just a few meters from a sheer drop, and while the view is exhilarating, the fall is....Bounce back soon.

    First of all thank you for your love! I've mentioned that you can give whatever you wish to!! You may give nothing at all for a project and thats fine for me.. I didnt open that thread to sell you my music, its just a move of kindness from both sides.. Thanks again.

    Sad to read that a fellow musician have such problems. Do you have some samples or screenshots of your work? I think it may help

    Sad to hear for sure. Life can be such a bitch sometimes. I know what a loss means so I'm not talking outta my ass.

    Yet after hearing Dave Gilmour say on Pompeii vid he once was on "breadline and less" level, I find it hard to complain I'm hungry or I need anything. I don't mean this in regard to you, just a random thought.

    Ah man, sorry to hear this.
    I was struck down with a medical condition 2 years ago that has stopped me playing guitar, drums, and most basic daily mobility functions. It's been hard as shit... but you'll get through this and be better for it I'm sure.
    All the best

    All I can say is, it sucks and I'm really sorry to hear you're going through such tough times :(

    I've been there as well.... foreclosed on my home about 6 years ago when the economy took a shit. Sold all my gear to help pay for some of the debt I accumulated and still wasn't enough.

    If I could say one thing to you is this, stay positive. Its hard and it may not seem like it now, but you are in a unique position that opens you up to all sorts of possibilities. Think of it as a reset button... its a way to start fresh. And while right now you may not be able to commit to your music, don't give it up. Your music will always be there for you, even when sometimes when the ones closest to us cant be.

    Whoa....flash back for me. Finished work one day and was looking forward to going home and doing some work in the studio. I had just finished cleaning the computer up and my gear. Had my set up all organized and in good shape! Step out of my car and walked through the backyard only to see my main door wide open! My heart sank, was in a major panic! I was afraid to enter at that point because I knew what happened.

    Everything stolen accept the studio monitors which I think they couldn't fit in their vehicle (since the big sub speaker probably took up most of the room). Took a long break and stopped producing for 5 years after that one. Very upsetting to say the least, but with each struggle and hardship comes a new beginning. Met my wife right after that episode and now here I am a family man with a little studio again! Starting producing late 2014 and have recovered fully!

    Good luck with everything. The recession is a kicker and it's not going to get any better from the looks of it. Look at the debt in the US, it's reaching up to Greece fast and you know what that means! Big socialist, freebie countries never thrive in the end, because they don't have the money to pay for it all. Here comes the 1st world collapse!...actually....it's already here.
