Tracking As A Job

i don’t think renoise is well suited to busking, however ;)

All I could busk with would be some form of tribal drums, and I don’t own any :P … I need to get me some bongos ;)

RENOISE FOR BUSKING IS GENIUS

“look folks, i can make music in a spreadsheet!!”

I can think of a couple of “old-school” trackers that lives of of making music today: Jogeir Liljedahl, Bjorn Lynne, Jesper Kyd. Probably “Moby” and “Lizardking” too, but not sure about them.

The Moby of the tracker scene is not the Moby of “Play”

Indeed, but that doesn’t exclude him either :) .

Ah, you’re right. Moby a.k.a. El Mobo. The guy who made “Livin in Sanity” and “Elektric Funk” back in the beginning of the 90’s.

However, I’m not so sure they hang out here on the Renoise-forum tho… :unsure:

Good for him! Moby of “Play” is a joke

I’ve heard mr Charly Linch has a job :o

You heard wrong…

I heard he is now a crack-addict trying to sell his Charly Linch cd’s on the street.
In my opinion that is not a job ;)

Hey very interesting topic :)

I am making music for fun [and for me] but sometimes I got a job to do for them. I live from gfx design work… I start creating some gfx stuff here:

djnick - Portfolio | GraphicRiver [check out, I have over 100 sales for less than a month], while on this page:
djnick - Portfolio | AudioJungle I have some Renoise stuff I did as a sound test - nobody bought nothing yet :) Anyway, new Jazz song should appear today on this link too. I guess this song should have more interests than other music tests I uploaded :)

So I guess I am better in GFX than Music for now.

Other than that - I have made several projects for video games - music for PC games [3D flipper, music is here]:

Now I am composing music for some iPhone gaming company [2 projects]… Not big money, but 150 EUR for 2min song [each project has 4 songs, so I should get 1200 EUR at the end for music] + SoundEffects [2 x 150 EUR]…

I guess it is very low for you from the West, but it is a freelance and one song I create in 2 days maximum :)

Releases for me in free time:

chek : http://www.hotelsinus.com

Hm, site not working from Opera?

It does with Safari. :P

Lizardking is probably still at Starbreeze (Swedish game company) doing music (together with another famous name in the tracker world, as in the creator of FT2)… or so he was when I was. :)

You really use that?? :blink:

Yes. Opera is the best and fastest browser in the world. And has bunch of fantastic keyboard shortcuts. Only for Internet pay I use Explorer just in case.

Your page contains quite a few validation errors, which you can see by running it through the W3 validator:
Validate www.hotelsinus.com

Your document type is set as XHTML Strict, but there’s quite a lot of content on the page that is not formed correctly for this doctype, plus a few other entities that aren’t encoded properly, such as valueone=1&valuetwo=2 which needs to be formatted as valueone=1&valuetwo=2 in order to pass the basic XHTML doctype tests, etc. All of these smaller errors could add up and cause the page to display incorrectly in certain browsers, but it’s difficult to say for certain.

One thing in particular seems to stick out to me within the section. You have the following unclosed tag in there:

<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="http://www.hotelsinus.com/hsfavicon.ico">
  

To be correct this should be changed to lowercase and have a properly closed tag:

<link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="http://www.hotelsinus.com/hsfavicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
  

To make sure your site has the best chance of displaying correctly in all standard browsers, you should try to work through the list of errors listed by the validator and fix them. It might be a good idea to change your doctype from XHTML Strict to XHTML Transitional as well, which is a slightly more relaxed standard and therefore easier to work with. Things like the tag are not allowed in Strict, for example, since you should use the tag instead, but it’s acceptable to use in Transitional.

etc.

PS. BrowserShots is a very handy tool if you want to check how a site renders in a lot of different browsers. For personal pages and sites that are not hugely popular, then you may have to wait in a queue before your screenshots are generated.

(Sheesh… web dev stuff is tedious, huh?) :P

Actually, Google Chrome bumped it into second place for speed when it came out according to some benchmarks I saw a while back.
