SAM, Amazing mate.
I nearly died in 1998. I was in intensive care for 70 plus days, then was moved to a surgical ward where I remained for almost a year. The nurses and staff, who I obviously got to know really well, knew I was into making electronic music, and because I had my PlayStation in my hospital room, they got me Music as a birthday gift. From that moment on my stay in hospital became a lot easier, as I was able to keep my mind occupied with making some rudimentary songs on this!
When I finally returned home, a lot of the tunes I had come up with whilst in hospital became the basis of future tracks, which I was able to fashion and craft using my proper equipment at home.
This PlayStation software/game may be simple, but it holds a very special place in my heart!
Cool vid mate
PAUL MANNING epic story m8
I love your story Paul. I made a couple of tracks on this also back in the day. I wish I stashed the memory card
realy great story. i hope you're realy fine today.
@Daniel Grozier Music 2000 and MTV Music Generator are the same game, just has a different name in US and the UK.
Hey Paul. Stories like yours make what I and the guys at Jester achieved back in the 90s all that more worthwhile. Thanks for sharing, and hope you're keeping well! ;o)
The ps1 intro still gives me goosebumps
I paid to have a ps2 startup theme and menu for my ps4 lol
Same here mate!
Same. Nostalgia to the max
So great to see my baby (MUSIC tm) dragged out of mothballs and aired again! But what's more precious, is reading everyone's fond memories and even some deeply moving stories in this thread. That truly warms my heart... thanks for such a fun video! And a massive shout-out to everyone who has enjoyed our MUSIC/MTV products over the years. Love & light to you all - Tim Wright ( CoLD SToRAGE ) Creative Director at Jester Interactive - Designers of the MUSIC tm Products.
Hi Tim, just wanted to say hi and THANK YOU for making such a cool little product! I started making music in high school on the PS1 MTV Music Generator (I think it was Music 2 in the UK) and for years I used it for drums/beats. Some of the old songs on my channel utilize the beats and sampler tool - ua-cam.com/video/OnSVPjPsW0Q/v-deo.html
Definitely one of the ps1 titles I spent most time with as a teenager and I made so much stupid and awesome stuff in it. When I aired a minor key hard techno version of Itsy Bitsy Spider in our living room my parents thought I had gone mental
Are You wrote some stuff on ejay VMS? Was my first "DAW". Maybe you were my some kind of inspiration
MTV music generator definitely didnt get the warm welcome it deserved because back then, I don't think anyone would of believed you guys managed to compile a "complete" beat making program and run it on a PS1. Aside from a few producers , NOBODY acknowledged it for being anything more than a "game" . I always wondered how close Jester and Image-Line were because not even 2 years after MTV:MG a surprising revamped FL 2.0 is released and oddly it shared a striking resemblance, IMO.
Me and my best mate of 30 years got matching tattoos of the DJ guy from the cover last November because we spent our youth filling memory card after memory card, around 30 in all, (even deleting our games because we were worried about losing tracks) with Music and Music 2000.
A few weeks ago we finally, after about 3 years of trying, backed up all of our tracks to a computer about 15 years after our memory cards should've degraded.
Music and Music 2000 has been a really big deal for us so thank you!
This was literally how I got into music production.
Had this in the 90’s in college, the many days that no one had any money we’d cram into my room and make the loudest hardcore tracks.
Years later I got the MTV music generator on PS2, that had quite a bit of power to it, even had a sampler, managed to remix vocal tracks, then I decided I wanted something better so bought myself a PC, found a cracked version of cubase SX 3, loved it for years, then got the wife to get me the proper Cubase 5, still use it nearly daily.
And it all started from that PlayStation game over 20 years ago.
MTV Music Generator was the first version and it came out in 99 lol.
Me too. Then I got Reason 2.5 and later an M-Audio Oxygen 8 midi keyboard
me too my friend made some really good beats in this program and ive had the memory cards full of his beats for over 20 years just sitting in my cupboard. I really would like to know how to get the audio created into my Mac computer any ideas anyone ?? I started out using acid music program and sound forge then fruity loops ,reason, cubase, onto logic today this program was soo good when it came out bk in the day.Can anyone help lol ???
I just love how it has 90s euro trance vibe
me too
Yeah this is why I still sometimes use it. I use Caustic 3 and had an hard time finding good 90's samples. I even ended up ripping Music 2000 kickdrums for use in Caustic
This pretty much could have gotten legit club play back then lol. It's so on point it's kinda scary.
everything had a 90s euro trance vibe back then
@@DJOmnimaga bro check vengeance essential club samplepack
Playstation: starts
*Chills in every bone
The vocal samples sound a lot like they came out of some old Moby track.
Same for me
Agree. Not only the vocal parts, but the entire shabby 90s samples' kit sounds like early Moby's stuff.
S. Patrick Dudad yup
S. Patrick Dudad it is not moby but fat boy slim and jester they made program later called music 2000 (or music 2 in Uk) and in usa Mtv music generator ( or Mg 2) ,
@@neshvorontsovlordneshsuper3925 Oh that's rad!
That track honestly sounds frick'n awesome at 9:00. It almost sounds like from an Amiga! Great job! I love all the melodies, beats and changes you gave it. Gotta love that awesome early 90's dance music with all the techno and house elements! Some of the best musical styles ever made right up there with new beat, Italodisco and metal!
That full start up screen is insaaaaaaaaaaaaaanely nostalgic.
It’s a Roland d-50 if memory serves me correctly!
🔥💥🔥
Yeah.. would be so cool if they brought that back for ps5.. maybe a signature campaign to Sony??!
@@blakkno666 Yup, they should return to that first startup. When i was a kid that was a magicial sound for me and to be honest it still is. You were ready to experience an adventure, and now when i hear my ps4 startup sound it makes me want to go to sleep. :D
@@Tarkesis That's the intention of new technology: to do the heavy thinking and working for you, distract you with the shiny, confuse you when you try to do anything meaningful with it, and lull you to sleep so that it can record your unconscious body.
Just in case anyone was wondering, the disc shown is 'Music: Music Creation For The PlayStation', which only had a UK release in 1998. 'Music 2000' was the 1999 advanced followup, and the NTSC/USA version of -that- was named 'MTV Music Generator'.
Ah, thanks for the clarification. I came here after someone mentioned that North American release on a comment on another video.
You probably mean European release, because I have one with a dutch/french manual.
I absolutely loved this music program for PS1 back in the 90s. It was actually quite deep and editable as a music making tool, and my first experience of using a type of ‘DAW’ to sequence loops and one shots on a ‘computer’. It was easy to create fills, risers, edit samples etc. I made loads of tracks with it and recorded them into my Sony minidisc player as backups. Still got ‘em, and the same minidisc player is still working. They brought out a sequel to this one called Music 2000, but somehow I didn’t find it as good as the original. Apart from the obvious difference in sound quality and depth, the concept is not that disimilar 20 years later working on Korg Gadget! Great episode, brings back fond memories of my PS1 days and my first venture into ‘computer-made’ music. 👍🕷
how can I get beats stored on playstation memory from this onto my Mac any ideas ??
MTV Music Generator 2 for the PS2 was phenomenal. I still use it.
It enabled you to sample your own sounds as well and then modify them
For me it is worth owning the PS2 just to be able to run it.
I pushed my PS1 so hard with Music that I had to remove the upper case and have a room fan directly blowing on it, I use to have to run out all the time and buy more memory cards for sampling and saving projects too! Good times.
Memory cards get filled pretty quick with this software. I just use an emulator with savestates or virtual memory cards now.
OMG
@@DJOmnimaga why don't use Dreams on Ps4?
@@LeGaLiZeDOOMz I don't have a PS4
DJ Omnimaga if you've already got a PC why are you still using it? For the samples?
Dude! this track u created is dope! Got that Moby feeling!
This video proves the Playstation 1 was way ahead of it's time! And capable of bring more then just games to the living room! Very well done, Amazing work!
The main reason I've held on to my original PS was for Music 2000.
Frustratingly limited in many ways, but all things considered a fantastic piece of software. Used it to help compose songs, especially for figuring out drums and bass. But with enough time and perseverance you could actually get some fairly impressive results out of it.
Music 2000 was literally how I started making music.
Music got me started now I use fruityloops
Me too.
Yes! Me too =)
I remember as a child I dreamed to have the full version of this program. In Eastern Europe there was a huge problem with its availability (even as a pirate). The demo version contained a much smaller number of samples. And it did not allow to interfere in the created patern. It's nice to see this program years later. I am still making music but now on Ableton 10. :) Regards!
This is where it all started for me with drum programming I wrote many songs using this. Easy to use and not that bad samples I moved on to fruity. Loops and audition DAW after this once I got a computer and used some of the stuff I wrote using this. Good memories
I spent so many days making music on MTV music generator 2.
Had several memory cards just for the music.
Even recorded them on cassette tapes.. What a time that was..
Do you still record?
@@estebanb7166 nope, lost my ps1 for more than 10 years already..
@@johnbarry2002 Right. I'm saying you could still record. There are lots of free/ nearly free DAWs. Just a thought. You don't have to be a great musician or anything. It's a lot of fun.
@@estebanb7166 hey thanks for the info... I'll defo try when I find the time.. And hopefully you're right about it being easy.. Because I'm a terrible musician lol
@@JBarry So is Little Pump. You'll be fine. There are no wrong notes. Good luck.
This and Music 2000 was my entire life for years.
I spend so much time on these music maker. It was amazing. Thank you for the flashback.
Benga and the lads have loads of interviews on this game and how it influenced them. Benga legit started interest in Grime production from a track he plated from this game
Watching this brought back so many memories. Can’t believe I forgot about this! I made so much music with this game & then went to music production college. This is what sparked my creativity for music making. Thank you so much for posting this🙏🏼
Don’t forget you can even sample from CD with this game using any CD & make remixes with it!
Nice one! A whole bunch of 2000's TFT display Sony Ericsson cellphones had a very similar software built-in for polyphonic ringtones composition.
It was almost the same 'icons' and pattern building capability. Mostly loops.
Funny how Sony preserved certain concepts through completely different systems and eras.
MUSIC 2000 is the genuinely brilliant, actually workable follow-up, and still on the PS1. It was, frankly, unbelievable at the time. The first MUSIC was a toy, MUSIC 2000 was like being given a studio to play in.
This has just brought back memories of being a young whipper snapper and creating tunes back in the early 2000s using Dance ejay on a Packard Bell running Windows 98.

My friend in college had this and he made really impressive trip hop and hip hop tracks on it!
Ahh, my first introduction to music software! I used to bunk off school and spend entire days recreating New Order tunes on this thing 😂
🔥🔥
Thanks for your videos Sam! I started watching them when I was having a hard time being addicted to amphetamine, and they've inspired me to build synths and learn how to produce electronic music!
Music was a great entry into making tracks, I spent loads of hours as a teenager using this. However, coming back to it again before selling my video game collection: using the controller to lay down notes and patterns is the most fiddliest of methods I have ever endured. Love the input from legendary musician CoLD SToRAGE / Tim Wright on the demos too.
Just as an aside - I would totally recommend anyone that has the disc that you use a utility like PSound on Windows to extract all the samples from the Playstation disc as Wavs (all at 11khz, 22khz and 44khz versions)
Many thanks for the sound conversion tips!
Love it. I remember thinking I was going to be the saviour of rave with my crappy 3 minute long techno tracks. I'm sure The Prodigy were quaking in their boots.
its sounds like one of those songs you hear when you trying to installing pirated games, like from Theta, Fitgirl, Codex or something else
Big kek
@Walter B masterbating is also fornication, so fuck off m8
Chiptune
Demoscene music
Don't ever stop making content Sam. I swear I have the UA-cam app installed just to watch your videos. Love it!
This was my addiction, it was a really intuitive and strangely (relatively) powerful piece of software for the Playstation. Was always frustrating that there was no sampling available in this version though, it made everything sound really similar. Still, very cool and I remember buying it as soon as it came out. Later on it also made me buy Reason for the PC.
Круто, чувак! Я вспомнил дни своей молодости. Спасибо тебе.
Отлично!!! Зачётный видос!!!
Я в своё время (2000-2005) написал на "Psone" более 50 композиций собственного сочинения используя как звуки так и сэмплы этой программы.
У нас даже была своя рэп группа "NevesoМасть" - Dj Ser Jay (Sergey Zharkov), Mc Fikus (Garry Sagaydak), [Mad Max] & Nadi.
This was actually surprisingly great software. I remember making fun of my friend for using this, and low and behold, he got a song actually signed and pressed with it in the early 2000s
And another 20 years on from that, here you are watching some guy play it on youtube
What song was that? Is it still available in any way?
This is hilarious! I remember music maker 2 for ps2. I loved it! You could sample from your own CDs. I though that I’d made some pretty good tunes, but I’m sure if I listened back to those tracks now I’d probably piss my pants at how tacky they actually were
All the people in the house, say "Yeah!".
Fond memories of this
I remember making a song based on the sample "feel fire". does bring back memories
"oh... oh... oh yeah!"
:P
CRT: **Turns on**
CRT: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Me: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Studied Music tech at Uni. Unfortunately due to my health and life itself, I never managed to get a job within the field.
Haven't made music for years, nearly 8 in fact. Found your channel the other day and boy has it re-sparked something good. Your use of retro kit is awesome. Love the videos man, keep it up. Earned yourself another well deserved sub.
Yeah me and my friend totally did the thing of making a full really cheesy album using Music 2000 for pre-GCSE music at school. It's pretty much the first thing I started making music with so I have a huge soft spot for these games.
Great stuff!
brought me back to sega's street of rage jams
wow yes!! this got me way into music editing. it had endless plots and songs to choose from, i even at one point routed the audio cord to the computer and recorded it! i have about 6 tracks i made on there on my computer right meow. i saved it all these years since the 90s. still got it. so rad.
Girl: You're in a band? What instrument do you play?
Guy: I play the PlayStation
This was like magic for me. I loved to play for hours, doing some music, and some of these I recorded on K7. (Years before I saved this on MP3 and did my first 'album'. I already do some music for recreation.)
You could crop some samples from CDs also, but, It tooks too much MEGABYTES to save on memory cards.
I have the Codemasters' Music Generator 2000 for PC too, but it wasn't so easy to 'draw' music as the MTv Music Generator.
I remember when I use to play my PS1 games on a CD player just to hear the soundtracks 💿 🎮 🎶
That was such a great feature, I loved it! :D
I used to be addicted to this. I think I had the second version too where you could sample from a CD and save the sample to the playstation memory card but you only got a few seconds. Very inventive use of the hardware though!
I loved the next version of this 'game', music 2000/MTV Music Generator It let you import very short samples off a CD. it had better samples according to my taste
@Daniel Grozier Dude you both have pet pictures
The follow up to this (Music 2000) was pretty good too,, it came with a little microphone that plugged into the into the PlayStation so you could take voice samples plus you could take samples from cd's too if I'm remembering it right. Cool video, brings back memories.
I remember reading Dizzee Rascal got started playing with this game.
I could definitely see that!
By the sound of he’s still using it 😂
Yes bro u know about that lol nice 1
Boy in the corner was I think all made of ps1 music game
ua-cam.com/video/AZHnaSIZP0Y/v-deo.html stuff like this
This is where it started for me and i love it to this very day_ still have two copies of the later music 2000 and 99999999999 tracks recorded on tapes and my old pc which was hooked directly from the tv headphones jack to pc mic input because i dont have any audio interface back in the day. Im very thankful for the original version tho. It trained your musical ear immensly by limiting the editing to monophonic per channel. Good times...thanks for this Sam.
There was an article a couple years ago about how this game was the starting point for a lot of rappers and producers. There were even a few mixtapes made with it using some kind of setup with a tape recorder and a microphone.
yep started out on this and still make music till this day
blast from the past this, I remember first coming across this pre teens but a few years before had the pleasure of using a pc program called dance ejay and remember playing music for the first time and being amazed how they managed to get something so complex to run on a ps1
I used to love this, record it to cassette tapes and pump it loud in the car lmao
Loved this software - Music 2000 is one of the best pieces of music software ever made.
Rave eJay for me. Recorded my "album" to tape from the first family PC.
had Techno ejay myself, and same
LoL love this comment. I used to use rave ejay. Never was commited enough to complete an 'album' though. You should dig it out and upload it! Would be a blast from the past! 🙂
I had Dance eJay! I loved it. So so 90s!
Yeah I have E-Jay 1, 2, 3, Dance, Rave and Markoolio I think..
this is what got me started all thos years ago , i had piles on memeory cards , but then music 2000 came out with a down scrolling sequencer , it killed it for me , great video sam your the boss
I had Music 2000, which I found easier to use. Spent many, many hours creating all sorts of tunes throughout my teens
This video came up because I suddenly thought of this game and couldn't remember what it was called. Such nostalgia. I remember one of the vocal tracks using the lyrics "feed the flames, oh feed the flames, feed the flames...baby" and to this day it regularly pops up in my head haha
All the music i made in the early 2000s was with this it actually fooled some people lol and mtv music generator
Mtv music generator 2. I put alot of hours on that.
What do you mean by “fooled some people”?
Christopher Daniels sane here
Music sounds so 90's! Love it!
Music 2000 ps1 i started making beats on lol , the only game i needed for my ps1 , and 20 memory cards
Hours and hours
Bro me too..i made a album off of this and beats so dope that everybody thought i had studio with equipment
Haha exacly back in those days they thought i used Reason PropellerHead or Flstudio3 Lol
@@krunk9790 i still would use this over anything that's out today because of the way you can sample.. I've never found another program that lets you have full control of the sound especially with a controller.. I'm bout to start making them again and posting them so ppl can hear how creative you can get with this game
Started my music journey on Music big ups for this vid. 28.02.2022
I remember making a Bone Thugs remix song with this game. Memory cards would fill up so fast. GB memory was but a dream.
Oh the memories of this game! The next one on the PS2 had a mic so you could record your own sounds. I used it to map my acoustic drum kit whilst my rents were on holiday and made some mad tunes!
One of the biggest german artists used this game to produce beats for a whole hiphop album back in the days.
ua-cam.com/play/PL947AC3A5F3C08089.html
As far as I know they only used a cheap casette deck and beats from the playstation to make this. Sure it sounds like crap, but it started the career of some very well known german artists.
@Dirk-Ulrich Heise you talking bullshit. There is only one track about anal rape. It Was the best time for battle Rap.
not quite sure why yt suggested this to me but it's the best thing i've watched all day
subscribed, would be great to see someone make a track from the old music arrangement things you'd find on mid 2000s sony ericsson phones
6:00 “Put your feet on the floor!” Lololol
i want to know where their feet were that forced him to say that
Sounds like a ragga jungle sample
Dude, respect. That program was so frustrating, but I have very fond memories:)
Bro, that breakdown at 9:32 is pretty dope!
Music 2000 is what I remember playing on the ps1, its what got me into creating digital music years later.
Aww man, a friend and I used to take acid or eat mushrooms and play this so much. Digital music creation wasn't super accessible so it was amazing. Or maybe it was the second one.. Either way great times
Mmmm mushrooms......
I so remember this when i was a kid, and also ejay? i think it was, i swear the music game did have another name, or was music something, music dj? or so, maybe ejay is another one for you to try out Sam, all the love and respect to you, your the end of a leg.
I loved messing about with this software when I was younger! Completely forgot it existed! That and the eJay series for the PC :D
A friend of mine is a drum and bass producer ("Chinensis" if anyone is interested) and he credits his interest in music production to Music 2000 on the PlayStation back in the day. haha
ejay's a classic 🙌
Holy fuck! I totally remember using this and have spent FOREVER trying to find something similar in a modular/pc base.
I've been quietly watching your channel for quite awhile now and gotta say I'm so impressed with how talented you are as a maker and as a musician. I, clearly, have a lot to learn from you and will be here for your future projects!
Side note: Sent my girlfriend one of you covers and she's into it! Let's see if we can get you in the states soon!
Sound-Meter Video is what we want! Or Inwant. At least.
HAINBACH hahahaha challenge accepted Hainbach!
I tought your profile pic was Alessandro Cortini. Checking out your channel now, pretty cool.
Those horns tho my word the depth held it all together perfect
That would be a hit if you're living in that timeline.
Actually the outcome was way better than I expected, awesome video lad
I loved music generator when I was in high school. Shit, this takes me back.
I spent so much time on this game when I was young, so much memories!
*Rip all the vocals and upload they have so much potential*
Gosh, it remind me my childhood, I think I never played a game longer than this one, thanks for that video m8
Oh yes...the good old Music. I still got my Music on the shelf here. I learned a lot making music with....Music. After Music came out, there was this other Playstation program called Ejay Clubworld,that was even more serious piece of software. Could you do a review of Ejays Clubworld perhaps?
Anyways,Music will always be etched into my memories as a gateway into music production for me. After Music,i got a proper PC and i was on my way. Good times.
Sasu Poutanen ejay mannnn
I had Ejay SE for the computer. There should still be a music casette somewhere in my parents' house on which I tried to record what I had made. A while ago I even went through the trouble of setting up a virtual machine running Windows XP just so I could relive the hype. It was all the nostalgia I had hoped for.
Great little product. I remember recording the audio from Music into a mini disc and bringing that audio into cubase. It was my first sample pack essentially.
hi I have a question for you how can I get some beats made on here into my Mac ??
"All the People in the House" has just gone viral on soundcloud....
Banger!! This is where it all began for me. Spent countless hours on it. Thanks for the memory 👌🏾
Ah memories. Actually cringe. I spent hours and hours on this thing making a crappy techno track. I was so proud I made my nan listen to it.
Why is that a cringey memory? At least you believed in yourself then.
Man I honestly had no idea that you could even do all of this stuff, especially all of the other stuff and things that hundreds of people in the comment section has listed so far in here too (ESPECIALLY for back then). Simply amazing.
I believe Pogo used this to make some of his early tracks
yo lol a smile instantly came on my face when that started up man, right in the feels.
I know I'm late to the party watching this vid. But I'll add my thoughts anyway. I still have this software and the Music 2000 follow-up. I got into both 'games' big time when they first came out. Made tonnes of tunes, copied them onto cassettes and some onto minidisc, proper '90's. To be fair, my efforts were mostly average, but there are a few proper choonz amongst the experimental noises. Currently got a couple of synths on order, planning to re-ignite my musical musings. Maybe I can re-visit these old tunes and re-mix myself. Plenty of inspiration on this awesome channel, enjoying playing catch-up watching Sam's adventures.
I used to LOVE this game as a kid mate... this vid made me realise I never used it to it's full (pretty limited) potential as a 10 year old. Gonna grab a copy and make some retro beats!! Do I need a PS2 and CRT or is there a way to get this with more modern gear?
Jack Benzie playstation emulator
@@kingbobthepimp You can't emulate this game because the samples are written in specific code. You can only use PS1 and PS2 on everything else sounds like ass.
Naboo....... wheres Bollo?
Loved this and Music 2000 back in the day. GOTHIC pitched right down was the best synth ever.
I need to have a look through my old memory cards at some point soon. :D
Loved using this back then ;-) Used it in conjunction with a tascam 4 track ;-)
I still have an old PS-2 only to play Command & Conquer and a game of loads of others like Metal Gear Solid to Gran Turismo,this was what got me right in to a lot of DJ Apps for the Lenovo as i have been a DJ for years and this small classic was ahead of it's time plus the x-box playing my Guitar on certain stuff ....class video ... WOW
So this is how Moby made his songs?
Oh What!! I used Music 2000 from the same developers (found it for like 2€) haha a weird, dodgy piece of software on a PC, my first dip into making electronic music.
Amazing man, so many good and funky memories. Thank you :D
Sounds like MOBY was making his music on PS One 😂
