So anyone doing some songs and shit on your own at home? I'd love to hear them if you got some. We can criticize each other and shit. I've got a song I've been meaning to finish for the past month, but can't be arsed to do the mixing. A fruity loops song that is. Nothing much.

This should be another thread.

This is the last song I was involved in writing with my ex-band. This is a live performance we gave some time back, but the quality is pretty decent. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDFo8GGLDVU">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDFo8GGLDVU</a>

You guys look pretty professional. Good stuff dude. Nice solo btw.

I got kicked out for not practicing enough to maintain the adequate level of technical proficiency. I just didn't have the time what with school and all.

wow i like "A Toybox Maelstrom". what program did you use to make it?

Speedyjx

Cheers ha ha ha! I'm glad you like them 🙂.

I did all that stuff in Reason 3. I actually have a proper recording setup now though, and've got a thing for college to do that involves me ripping off the Silent Hill OSTs, so hopefully I'll up date it soon 😃.

this has made me want to practice fingerpicking a lot

Legacy_Of_The_Night

I want to record a couple arrangements of video game songs that I put together, but the only person I know with a decent recording setup is moving to Georgia. :[

Hopefully I can at least get one song done.

Shit, man, you should form your own band.
Could be a blessing in disguise, getting the boot.

Things happen for a reason, and the trick is turning a seemingly negative event into an oppurtunity.

Hell, Lemmy got kicked out of Hawkwind, and he's now a rock icon. Ozzy got kicked out of Sabbath, a nd did quite well (for a while...).

I'm putting together a country and folk group right now. Already found a violin, a tin whistle and a mandolin.

Yeah but it doesn't need much practice at all (unless I'm really underestimating my acoustic skills). It's just a thumbpick with some slow fingerpicking, followed by strumming. Albert Lee, on the other hand...

yes but i am not very good

Start out with some country strumming stuff, then move onto Dylan for some more diverse strumming, is what I can recommend. As for fingerpicking, just fingerpick various chords.
