I'm introducing myself after making several other posts already but hey - I'm a rulebreaker :D
I've been a fan of ambient music since last century, and I've been making music for about the same length of time (about 35 yrs). My first 'rig' was a Casio keyboard, a 'doctored' transistor radio, an Aria electric guitar, and a Teac reel-to-reel tape recorder. Boy, it was hard work making 'sound-on-sound' recordings...
Nowadays I use Reaper as my DAW, various VSTs, a few real guitars and a bit of real percussion to make music. Much easier in most respects, but anything computer-related brings its own problems, as I'm sure we all know.
I'm currently finishing my first album (2 more tracks to go!!) which is a mixture of styles, including ambient. I'm also planning my next album, which will be another 'concept' album, but entirely ambient this time. I enjoy listening to and making music in a wide variety of genres, but it's fair to say Ambient is the style I understand/relate to the most.
