I use FL Studio a lot (Formally known as fruity loops, I guess the cereal company and Tucan Sam sued FL Studio to change the name the name lol). FL studio is a really good program for making music and it's pretty easy to use. If you are at all interested in making music, remixes etc. FL Studio is a good place to start.
I'm almost done my Chicago theme remix and I plan to release it soon on my blog and on youtube. For the youtube version I'm thinking of using screen capturing software to show the remix inside of FL studio. You might remember that I did the same thing for my last Perfect Dark remix except I didn't use screen capturing software to record that one (it was just recorded off the screen).

Chicago Theme (Perfect Dark) Remix
Perfect dark 64 had some really cool music in it, and one of my favorites was the Chicago theme. I was messing around with the PD tune on the keyboard and I got some good ideas. I collected enough ideas to make a remix so I started plugging in some stuff into fruity loops.
After a little while, it started to sound pretty good, maybe even better than my last PD remix. So right now I'm working on it, I have around 2:30 minutes completed. I'll post it up on youtube when I'm done, hopefully soon (although I tend procrastinate a lot and put up half-done songs)
The remix has a lot of original music in it, so it probably won't be instantly recognizable. But there is a point, maybe about a minute into the track where the Chicago theme kicks in. After about another minute of the Chicago theme, the track fades back to more original music. When you listen to it, everything flows seamlessly and fits in well with the Chicago theme.
I'll post more updates as the track progresses.
