Singing is really more than just something we do in the shower, it can really empower us and change the vibrations of the soul. Singing connects us with the natural world around us and helps us to connect to being alive. It is really essential to our happiness as human beings.

Our bodies rely upon oxygen and breathing is so very necessary to our lives, that anything to help change the flow or stimulate the muscles that we use to breath, will help us ‘feel’ more alive. A deep breath before a particularly high or long note can leave our hearts pounding, as if exercising.

If you prefer humming, for example, a Pavarotti impression, then even the vibrations from certain notes can have a calming effect and release stress, particularly with certain songs or tunes. Think of any time you have watched someone settle a crying baby, the ‘ah’ sound used to try and calm and soothe a baby human being is said to have come from sounds experienced in the womb.

Singing can also connect us to certain people and enhance our relationship with others, most couples will have a couples song but even hearing a song from a time in your life can bring back the full sensations of whatever you were experiencing at the time.

Dubstep, techno and drum and bass engineers will at some point need a heavy Reece bass for there new dance floor track. The Reece bass is a classic ‘dirty bass’ sound. From the more subtle terrorist Reece to the hardcore alien girl Reece they all have one thing in common. The saw tooth wave.

So to start off with, get a multi oscillator synthesizer (ideally 3 or 4 oscillators) like the albino, logic’s ES2, Massive etc. Set all oscillators to the saw tooth. There are many harmonic frequencies in the saw tooth, The normal waves ramps upward and then falls. There are also sawtooth waves where the wave ramps down and then rises sharply. Commonly known as a reverse sawtooth. As signals, the two variations of the sawtooth sound the same until paired together.

Once you have got your multi oscillator synth running with 3 oscillators, the next step in the process is to detune one or 2 of the oscillators by around +/- 25cents, this is essential for drum and bass and dubstep. It gives the Reece a very deep edgy sound, rather than just a flat buzzing sound.

After setting up your initial saw tooth with De-turning, (this is essentially the basis of the Reece) – You can go ahead and start producing and shaping the noise for your type of music, dubstep or drum and bass. Here are some of the main parameters you can use:

Filter Envelopes:
A nice way to get a movement on the Reece bass is to add envelope to the filter section, Reece bass sounds are extremely responsive to filters and using a high pass you can get a very nice sounding lead, or use a low pass and get a very fat bass. try using about 20% of filter attack for dubstep and 30% for drum and bass.

Over the years of continuous improvement, the simple cellular phone can now do other functions. It is not just limited to its original role like sending a SMS message or calling someone.

According to some reports, the 6300 is one of the Nokia phones that can give high quality audio output making the phone the Nokia’s answer to the Walkman series. Another similar phone to a Walkman phone of Sony Ericson is the Nokia’s 5300, which main feature is playing MP3 and other media files. It also comes with an easy access play, pause and next button allowing the user to play an MP3 file with ease.

The Motorola cellular phone company did the same too. In almost all of its recent cell phones comes the feature allow it to play MP3 ringtones.

Simply insert a CD in to your PC and whether your using windows media player or any other type of media player there will be an option for you to “Rip” the music files from your CD to your music library. Insert your CD and hit the Rip button and the process will begin ripping those song files from your CD to your PC music library and before you know it those songs are now available for you to listen to without the CD.

Now another option is to buy your Zune Music Downloads one at a time through sites such as itunes, Zune marketplace, Rhapsody ect. in most cases downloads are 1$ a song and even more for movies.

Now if you do not have a big CD collection to rip as talked about above then as your probably realizing “wow this is going to cost a lot of money because at a buck a song if your like me then too fill your Zune is going to cost a few thousand dollars. However this is an option and not a bad one simply a much more expensive one than option number three.

Option three is much like option two however instead of choosing a pay per download site you can choose a membership website where you pay a reasonable per month fee and you will get unlimited access to millions of Zune Music Downloads. There is usually an option for a lifetime membership as well which gives you the same unlimited access to millions of songs but you will only pay a one time fee.
