Playing Music/Instruments

[Claudia1794]

Awesome show. I've seen it four times.

Yeah....I loved it. I edited out what I originally said. I didn't want to come off as that

No worries.

I played the clarinet in high school and I can play a little bit of piano. I also play a mean cow bell.

I make music for video games and occasionally film for a living. I do this using a Midi keyboard, Ableton Live and lots of Kontakt Libraries, 3rd party plugins etc, etc. I've also played guitar since 2005 and Didgeridoo for the last 4 years or so.

Those things are why I really dislike Mississippi State fans. Freakin' cow bells.

What kind of video games?
Keyboard is cool. I have one, but need to stop being a lazy bum and get to using it more. I'd to cover some Depeche Mode one of these years

I had piano lessons when i was much younger. Wasn't really any good and then other interests came along, but I used to play. Still find it hard walk past a set of black and white keys without banging out some chopsticks, it's the classic.

I wished my parents had made me learn piano. Instead, I wanted/had guitar lessons when I was 11.
I guess it's never too late though, right?

I used to enjoy playing the keyboard in school and i was quite good at it. But outside of school i enjoyed football (soccer), video games and being outside to go any further with it. A shame really as i could have wrote some diabolical/cheesy love songs.

You can still write them

 

[user 164061]

I could actually. As i've dabbled a lot in misery, heartache, king of the friend zone honeysuckle so i've got a lot of material to work with.

I am guessing that piano just didn't seem very rock and roll at that age? They do say that you are never too old to learn something new so maybe you should give it a go. I would imagine that if you can read music for guitar it's just a case of transferring the skills across?

Heartache and misery make the best songs.. Music is a powerful tool.. I say toy around with the keyboard again..

 

[user 164061]

It will be the only thing that lets me play with it, along with my PC and PS5. When love hurt me again a few years ago i actually wrote poetry for that person, which was actually very good from what i remember. But i won't do that again

exactly.. haha. I was a weird kid. I grew up - around that age- listening to a lot of rock.. it was the time of 90's alternative.. then I fell into more of the punk/ska scene as my teen years arrived..
but you're right.. I should give it a whirl..

Sorry, see below.

I'm sure you were far from the weirdest kid around. I was born in the mid 70's so probably a bit ahead of you (not knowing how old you are) but I was pretty weird myself. Most of the music I tend to listen to now is still the stuff that I listened to back then when I was growing up. Be it just out of habit or the memories that it brings back who knows.
Yes, I think you should give us a go, what's to lose?

Doing a lot of survival horror stuff at the moment. These tracks were written for my portfolio and aren't in any game atm but might give you some idea:

Same... I don't listen to any new music.. I think I stopped listening to anything "new" during the late 90s. Only listen to old/er music..
weird in the sense that.. I can listen to 70s british street punk and then 5 mins later switch to 1950's Perry Como .. eclectic would be the right word?
