Muscians on XDA... - Off-topic

So yo, hello!
All you musicians here, how's it going?
Just a thread for those musically inclined, trained, hobby'd or interested to share their thoughts on music creation and anything related...
While I'm here, anyone keen on an Internets band?
-edit- yes, I spelled 'musicians' wrong... mkay?

Actually. I am working on a project with multiple musicians and singers. Interested? I play guitar, piano, clarinet, violin, and ocarina

sweet, yeah... I do bass and guitar, whats the project?

Here is the copypasta I have been sending out to musicians:
Hello, I am a songwriter, guitarist, and pianist currently working on making music with a new band. However, I have also been working on a solo album that veers away from the typical sound I play with my live band. I have been drawing inspiration from many artists such as Sufjan Stevens, Gaby Moreno, Nerves Junior, to name a few and I am taking this entire project in an unorthodox approach.
In terms of sound, I am experimenting with keyboards, filters, lo-fi production sounds in a higher quality production environment. Techniques such as recording parts to media such as cassette tapes and ripping audio source to a computer are being used (To give you an idea). Another part of the project is creating tracks with other artists contributing their personal feelings to song lyrics that I write, broadening the emotions provoked by tracks and offering opportunities to artists and even a few close friends that have dabbled in music.
A variety of effects, mixing techniques, and instruments will be used in production and I am mixing it all from my home studio by collecting pieces from other artists which leads to me emailing you.
Essentially the basis for this record would be that I send out lyrics to various singers and musicians and allow them to interpret the song in anyway they choose, perhaps offering minor guidelines like tempo. The artist would take artistic freedom over what they have been presented with. You would be able to sing any way you wanted, in any mood. Just however you feel when you read the lyrics. The lyrics will also be sent to instrumentalists who will create backing tracks based on the emotions provoked by the song. Finally, I will add what I had written the song like, in my own style, and begin a mixing process that will combine elements from every single artist contacted. The process is experimental and I will roll with whatever I am presented.
You won't need to contribute too much if you don't want to. If you simply want to contribute vocals for one section of a song, it is fine. If you want to record the entire song, it too, is fine. At the end of the project, the album will be available for free via bandcamp with liner notes included that will provide listeners with ways to donate to everyone who contributed to the album.
I thank you for reading this if you have and if you have any other questions or if you would like to start right away, feel free to email me.

I'm sitting here at work listening to the Verdi Reqiem, mouthing the words and following my part (Alto I). We're performing it at the end of October...
I also play guitar and have started noodling around with an Alto Sax.

New KITES demo - "The Disappearance of Becky Sharp"

In December I set out to make a track using just my 1985 vintage Roland JX8P synthesizer and Roland TR707 drum machine. Because of the nature of the synth (the JX8P is monotimbral - it can only play one sound at one time) I had to record each part separately and multi-track it. The result was a spacey italodisco tune some of you may have listened to on another thread. Anyway, Matt loved the tune wrote the first verse and part of the chorus and we recorded it just in time for Christmas break. Although I'd been listening to it a lot, only this week did I get around to juggling the arrangement and Matt spent the last few days completing the vocal. We are quite pleased with the overall result.
Hope you like it.

As you may notice that as this is totally synth track, we are going to have to be quite creative to fit this in a live set with guitar etc. Watch this space.
I like it!
It reminded me my old years dancing new wave stuff
Kinda 1st albums of human league and soft cell and depeche mode!
Congrats!
Thanks duder. Glad you like it. I am pretty pleased with it. Need to play it loud!

My own music mix with allot special effects

Hello people browsing XDA
I've just finished my own little music mix. Lately i've been practising allot with adobe after effects so it has a nice video with some cool special effects. This is my first try and i'm definitely going to make more. At the moment another mix is in the make using samples from other songs and in the nearby future i'm also going to make my own production. I'm not asking for likes or subscribers but if you like it i would appreciate it if you click the button
Hope you like it

List your favorite songs!

Hey guys,
Being a huge fan of inter cultural exchange programs, I have got into the habit of listening good music from different languages and countries (though I don't understand many).
List your most favorite tracks, link YouTube or any other site which is not serving piracy
List as many songs add you feel like.
Cheers to all music fans.
Too similar to the "What are you listening to..." thread.
Sorry but closed.
(Don't blame me, Archer/Vanessa would have done it sooner or later, speaking of which, why am I doing this for them?? )

[Q] Music Feelings and People

First time making a thread, go easy!
I have nothing better to do, so play along with me. My birthday is Monday, so consider participating as a birthday present to me
Put your music player on shuffle. Post the first two to five songs that play. Tell us how the song makes you feel. Tell us who the song makes you think about. Simple.
I'll start:
1. Murda Bizness Artist: Iggy Azelea Feat, T.I.
Makes me feel like doing some damage
No one in particular
2. Marvin's Room Artist: JoJo (a lot of artists have recorded their version of this song...I happen to love this one.
This song, quite frankly, makes me smile
My exes
3. Butterflies Artist: Marsha Ambrosius (written by her, Michael Jackson heard the demo and wanted to make the song. I love both versions)
This song makes me want to be in love.
Anyone that I have said I love you to, that's not related to me.
4. Little Boxes Artist: Melvina Reynolds
This is my jam! I sing this when I'm just veggin' out.
I love WEEDS, the HBO series. (I'm so Nancy) I know the song is a social conscious message, but it is the theme song for the show. This season different artists cover the song. :good:
5: Hotel California Artist: The Eagles
Makes me feel like I was born too late!
My kids. They actually like this song and sing it. Makes mommy proud. They are well rounded in their music selections, so I did something right.:highfive:
All my music in my playlist... is me...
lol... I don't really put other music on here but mine so it's ready on the fly for people who haven't heard it...

Thank you, Darling for responding. I can respect that. I have to check out your music. I'm always looking for new sounds. My music taste is so diverse. My list above doesn't reflect that, but my collection is out of control for sure. Again, thank you for replying.

What music have you been listening these days?

Specially in the quarantine days, and many of us work with music on the background for that matter.
Nosferatu by Bloodbound
Jazz
Space Truckin' - Deep Purple
The Strokes
uhh, LOOΠΔ.
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars - David Bowie (Mick Ronson lead guitar)
Amiga Music-Project X
arch enemy
Okay please don’t judge but I listen to musical soundtracks and classical music all the time. I listen to musical soundtracks because all the songs are so inspirational and I feel that it really helps with character development because I am an actress. I listen to classical because there is nothing more satisfying than hearing a whole symphony in your ears.
Purple Haze live at Woodstock - Jimi Hendrix
bebe Rexha.
I love hip hop and rap music. I usually listen to Mac Miller rap songs. He was a great rapper but unfortunately left us too early. I used to have his special swimming summer hoodie when this song was released. He made his name in such a short span of time in the rap industry.
wow this is one of my favorite songs
Jazz !
Jazz has all the elements that other music has: It has melody; that's the tune of the song, the part you're most likely to remember.
Guitar based Jazz-Rock Fusion, Larry Carlton, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Johnny A. John Petrucci/ Dream Theater.
Edit: I am indeed truly amazed at just how good my taste in music really is..............
All anime ops
Jazz, Because no matter what I always feel good with Jazz music
I'm a music lover and I don't have a favorite song or genre. My playlist can include African folk songs, Polish rap, Miley Cyrus, Ramstein and Vivaldi. I don't understand how it can be that I like so many different compositions, but that's the reality. I try not to show anyone my musical tastes, especially its dark sides. So when I'm asked to turn on songs on my phone at parties, I say that my battery is running low, or that I have nothing, or that I've deleted everything. I come up with excuses so that only people don't look at me like I'm crazy.
Rolling Stones live, Gimme Shelter, Sympathy for the Devil
