Way back in the day, I was at Best Buy and bought a program from Magix called Techno Music Maker (back when they were at Version 1!) because I wanted to do things a little differently than I had been with my 4 track Tascam MKII. A week into playing with the loops, I came across Hammerhead, and it became my go-to weapon for banging out my own beats for my tracks. Here we are, a decade later, and while I took almost 5 years off from music, I've upgraded with the technology quite a bit. Full blown studio, just bought my first pair of monitors about a year ago, using Ableton Live and Sonar X1 (after I eventually upgraded from Acid Pro, which I upgraded from Magix Music Studio, which I upgraded from Techno Music Maker), become a Midi and synth programming wizard, M-Audio Torq, a bunch of Korg nano-controllers, M-Audio keyboard, Core i-7 Quad CPU just for making music... But in the end, THIS is where it all started for me. I had forgotten the name of Hammerhead, and someone just mentioned it in a forum I was reading and I was like "THAT'S WHAT IT WAS!" Sure enough, the picture brought back a decade worth of memories. It may be a little, simple program, especially compared to today's Kontakt standards, but like I said, this is where it all started for me. I'm gonna download this, maybe even install Techno Music Maker, and just do an old school track using only those two... No plug-ins, no rewire, no over-complication... Just old school sounds and a little bit of creative magic.

Can't believe this thing is still alive and that people are still using it and posting user banks on the site.

Oh, and I've yet to find a sampler that I picked up as quick as I did with this one. All the other ones, I had knowledge of how things worked, and still had to RTFM... Hammerhead: just click and the sound comes out, put it here, put it there, bounce it and BAM there's the beat. The new school should take a hint from this.

Like a turd... Which in a positive way... that cannot be flushed... Hammerhead Studios and MORON STudios still survives even the toughest of them all, the MAYAN PROPHECY!!! DUM DUM DUM!!! Even with DOSBox, you too, can play drum beats and loop it to WAV and make homage to the jungle gods of yore, but for me, screw the jungle gods, and PRAAAAISSSE THE DARK MASTAH! I made some badass blast beats with MORON on DOSBox and I can say, Graveland of old is proud!

Hail the dude who made MORON Studio! \m/

They did. It is called FL Studio and it works the same way as Hammerhead.
