i remembered! synthesis it's in english apparantly one dude of funkarma, the dutch idm group that's hot apparantly now, and will release techno like stuff on warp under the name cane in the near future, did that too havent you done an instrument too? piano then i guess |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, zeus, we all grew up in a vagina.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, I played drums for 4 years, then bass for 4 (thats my principle instrument here at berklee) and i took piano for a year (this past year actually), and took guitar lessons for a year as well (in highschool... didnt really dig it). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well I dont know about you... but I DEVELOPED in a vagina... but I grew up in Virginia. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how much do you use that for your compositions, if i might ask? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the vagina? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just kidding... uh, yeah I learn lots of stuff that I use in my music... I havnt even gotten into my advanced composition classes yet... so I can only imagine it will help even more within the next 2-3 years (duel majors do 5 years... im starting my third now) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no i mean how much do you use your instrument skills? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and vagina skills, sure |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, my instrument skills... well... when I first started writing, knowing the drums helped me alot I think... (seeing as so much electronic music is beat driven). I had been playing drums for about 2-3 years before I started to write music (end of 8th grade, beggining of 9th grade) I taught myself really... I then taught myself how to read notation and to play the bass, in 11th grade... but then I took actual lessons on the bass in 12th grade, as well as music theory lessons... So I had been writing a good 3-4 years, self taught before I took any theory... and the bass was after wards as well... I actually dont play instruments much anymore... im really into producing/sound design/ composition... as far as the keyboard... it helps in being able to twiddle around with ideas... but in reality... I wouldnt need the help of instruments to write any of my music... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Actually, we grow in the UTERUS, then pass through the vagina...It's a place we all come from and want to get back to as often as possible... ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehehehe :-P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you dont need to hear it then? in a mozart kind of way? i'll learn how to play drums for my compositioning skills, rhythm is the hardest part i guess for me, for coming up with good melodies |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think i've heard that joke before.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I heard it from Robin Williams from his interview on "Inside The Actor's Studio", but I can't remember off-hand who said it to him... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
though it involves a vagina i dont think it to be that funny anymore.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean? Mozart heard it all in his head... he didnt need instruments to hear it I sometimes hear stuff in my head... but usually i write on the computer... thats where I hear it from |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so would you all go as far as to say you're a master of the vaginal medium? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
big: i think if you really want to improve your melodic skills... to try to learn piano its a big help |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've had a year of lessons but wont be arsed to read music anymore, i just cant do it so i'm learning myself further now, will get a keyboard or something i have written a little track recently, playing 6/8 appachios left hand and a melody right: that was a good improvement of myself i thought i usually play guitar |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah well, if you play guitar, and have played piano... to help with melodies... Id suggest just listening to alot of melodic music for starter... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as i said with the rhythm, i listen to complex rhythm stuff, like idm and then try to get up with better melodies then they sometimes have. i'm afraid of copiing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you dont need to learn musical notation to be a great musician, you just need to be a god, or just and idea-ist. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
luckily i happen to be god |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who said you did? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all this talk about key signatures and what not, to hell with that shit compose what sounds good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or just... do what works for YOU I enjoy knowing theory you shouldnt care how I write my music... just like I dont care how you write yours :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you in minor? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to smogk that was |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but in the end THEORY is just some fags way of turning music into configured symbols when in actuallity music is shapes movement and zeus' nutsac rotting on a stick. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

|
