Tangmo, I am a bit confused by your comment... Listening to your songs (The Way You Look, for example)... I am miles away from that sort of composing.
Money part... Probably the most expensive and complex piece of software I own is BIAB and Cakewalk DAW (which is free by the way)
If you are talking about Neutron, I got lucky and bought it second hand for fraction of the retail cost smile

P.S. I like some of your tunes, some of them strangely remind me of Dr. John. Seems to me you are using a lot of MIDI for arrangements. I am just curious, you are using basic synth for specific reason, or because you could not find a better sound set?

Tobias, I get inspired by reading some kids poetry and some classics smile
