what is going on in your musical life

Doesn't seem to have come through to my email. Am pretty sure I'm looking in the right account.

ah, fuck it did the blank screen again, email me at aj_lo✧✧✧@ya✧✧✧.c✧✧ (w/ no underscore) and I'll send it over

apologies for this scooby-doo-chase-scene-like routine to get this I'm not ready to throw the traxx up online yet

ah fuck

sorry, I'll stop shitting up this thread, anyone who wants this, just send me an email and I'll try and get it to you

sorry not sure if it was this thread or another where yall were talking about sampling, but i just made a song off a very short vocal sample (barely recognizable i think) and i'm wondering how you handle these situations if you want to put the song up on bandcamp. not saying i would be selling it per se but would definitely have it on an album with my name on it. is a credit all that's needed?

you don't even need to credit unless you want to (and for me this comes down to if the sample is supposed to be obvious and the track is closer to a remix, or if you're just using it as a sound source and flipping it), it doesn't matter unless there's money or official licensing involved imo.

Cool. That's what I was hoping.

first gig with electro-funk outfit on fri

still writing lyrics for three of the five tracks, also been informed that PA sucks

stoked

playing drums in public for the first time in 12 years tonight

lucky you!! have fun!

awesome!

thx, im slightly nervous cause weve only practiced twice but i also dont care that much lol

it came back really easily. like riding a bike tbh

who are you playing with? what kind of stuff are you playing?
someday i will have news for this thread

band called coffinwomb, usually he plays solo - crusty sounding garagey pop. he added a drummer and bassist for this show at our place tonight

cool! i'm sure it'll be a good time.

Last month I sprained my ankle three days before a show where I was playing drums, but fortunately, it was the ankle of my hi-hat foot and there was no hi-hat part in the music I was playing.

But if I had learned to play drums the "normal" way (where I played the kick drum with my right foot), I would have been fucked and/or in a lot of pain.

Band hasnt played together in 2.5 months due to combos of holidays, illness and plain old being busy.

Last night sucked balls. We were all flat, tired and couldnt remember stuff. Practice is So Important!

show was great tbh

Performed a couple of new pieces on the 13th. The show actually got reviewed here: http://www.musicaltoronto.org/2014/09/25/a-cathedral-for-cathodes-jacousmatic-vol-2-lights-up-ottawas-electroacoustic-scene/ . Dude was totally right about my squeaky pedal: WD40 time. Hopefully, I'll get good recordings done by the end of the year. I plan to present a fugal classical guitar piece that I wrote over the summer at a more low-key 'new music open mic' event towards the end of the month. Gotta be a theorist before then and get a paper together before a conference in Mississippi next week.

played trainwreck of a show last night ... one of those "so awful it will eventually be the source of much hilarity" type shows.

my oberheim is broken again ;_;

What kind of stuff do you play, sarahell?

my oberheim is broken again ;_;

is it the crutis chips?

this band is sorta no-wave noise/avant-garde stuff

playing our first ever london show at the Brixton Windmill on Halloween - pretty exciting!

watched 'Frank', the film, last night and realised my band is pretty much the same as his.

Also, that sucks, crut.

Yes. Yes, you are, aren't you?

._.

._o

O_O

Real cool to see you for a second the other night Sund4r

heh, sorry emil.y have i been inadvertently spamming you?

Nope. Check the other bands playing.

You're Slum of Legs?! I had no idea. Well that's a turn up for the books and now I'm even more irrationally nervous than ever.

Hehehe. It should be a good show, I reckon.

this is great - looking forward to meeting you and your bunch. could even be a good excuse for an ilx FAP.

started a really loud band and quit all my other bands (except argentinum astrum)

first spiritual ensemble gig of the year on Friday

also the last original founder told us she's planning on retiring from the group after our 20th anniversary concert in Dec so she can concentrate on her education contract work with the White House, which was basically just flat-out bragging IMO

how many people are in your group?
also did you ever find out who stole your wife's pitch pipe?

Right now, 9 (2 sopranos, 2 altos, 2 tenors, 3 bass/baritones); I think we are also courting three new ppl (sop/alt/bass). We're also losing a tenor, who is 75 and about to retire to Philly to be closer to his kids, so maybe we should be actively seeking a tenor (we've got a friend who might do it but he tries to do a bunch of shows plus his job has him traveling all the time so he may not be able to commit to the group).

The other baritone stole my wife's pitch pipe and insists to this day that he didn't, he just magically has two now. It's kind of funny.

i have wondered about it! i dont know why

emil.y - apparently my bandmate is the cousin of someone in your band. now it's getting coincidency.

having a 'jam' tonight after doing same on saturday arvo. tbh my contribution was droning on one note and 'playing' the resonance on the filter to vary the tone.

i heard something i recorded recently for the first time in a couple of months and was so horrified by the (lack of) quality of the recording that i decided on the spot to never record anyone else again

on the upside more time for my own shit

well this is happening

i feel like i am going completely bananas but i also feel like i am on a roll
i have something that needs to happen and i am giving it my best try, in part so i can determine what that looks like for me.
tbrr i am very uncomfortable but it's getting better; i'm a terrible hypeman aside from hyping language/education related topics to my students.
still, feelin pretty good!

(inspired in no small part by the power explosion of roxymuzak!!)

am i experiencing a power explosion?? perhaps!

uh yeah
believe it!

is there a thread for promotional advice? i need some!

i dont think there is but i can help maybe!
