 I have some music online under the name Electropunk Zero and Viomangui. I've lost more compositions than I've kept over the years with old tapes, sheet music, and CDs getting lost. I have some music online under the name Electropunk Zero and Viomangui.

I wrote most of those songs in FL Studio or FL Studio Mobile. The art and timelapse videos that go along with it were mostly done using Procreate.

I loop over a pre-planned rhythm but improvise all the leads, that's why there are a couple recordings of the same song from different days with different leads. There are also a couple Bad Religion covers.   * [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDNgv8bhz1FfswMhQkPRk2g|Viomangui recordings]] - Some old YouTube videos of me playing my guitar and loop pedal.

 +There are some free Soundfonts on [[https://sites.google.com/site/soundfonts4u/]] that include some great pianos, guitars, violins, flutes, etc. Download the ''.sf2'' file. 
 + 
 +To use the Soundfonts in LMMS, use the ''Sf2 Player'' instrument and then open its options. Select the ''File'' and pick the ''.sf2'' file. Then choose the ''Patch'' which is the specific instrument. There may also be multiple ''Bank'' each with a set of patches. Some Soundfont files come with dozens of instrument patches so you can download one ''.sf2'' file and have a ton of instruments available from it.
