The Dream That Stays a Dream

Life, as is :D, lokal banget! Add comments

Despite what I do now and my ignorance on the world of music and it’s instruments, I always wanted to be a drummer. Yep, you read it right. It started in Junior High when I started to have a thing for beats, especially drums. But at that time, I’m a total geek.. so I just kept that away for a long time.

Just recently I’ve played a Tatsujin (Drum Mania) in Citos Timezone and just reminded of the old dream of mine back then. But as you might have guess, i suck at that :)) Well, it would be cool to have that kind of instrument at home to play with. Just to relieve those stress at work, I could just bang it all I want.

Luckily, I have the WWW to help me. I searched the web and found DTXMania, It’s a free version of Drum Mania and it only works on PC, but it sure hell would be fun to play

And for the record, it comes with a Guitar Hero (PS2) clone that could work with a PS2 Guitar Controller (which I can get for around 300rb Rupiah, cool!). Hm.. interesting! All I need is a PS2 to USB Converter, which comes quite cheap but I’m not really sure if they have it here in Indonesia.

For DTXMania however, I need a MIDI Drum Set which cost around $200. Hm… Guess I know what I should buy for myself next year
