I bought a stupid music poo poo a few months ago and I love it. It's a Roli Seaboard, like this but smaller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jh-hzbG5FzI It's like a bunch of fake tits in a row that make music.

I would say sax 100%. I mean harmonica usually sucks too but the thing about harmonica is that it rarely appears in songs that would have been good anyway. Sax pops up in songs where you're like "OH GOD DAMMIT IT WAS FINE UNTIL YOU GOT HERE", whereas with harmonica you're usually just like "oh and of course there was going to be a harmonica in this piece of crap".

There are also fretless uke basses now, basically an a/e ashbory.  Fun fact: Ashbories are colloquially known as "snotstring basses".

Yep! Feel weird to play, but they actually do a passable impression of an upright bass if you EQ them right. See 3:40 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jwm4ogli1k Trig Discipline fucked around with this message at 21:23 on Jan 18, 2017 |

I don't think so, but IIRC that's tuned EADG just like a bass. The only "uke" bit really is the size.

HandlingByJebus posted:Did you listen to the whole thing? Hard, I know. But these sections: I listened to the whole thing. Those might be the best bits, but they aren't anything extraordinary. If they have anything to recommend them, it's that they are the least wanky bits of the entire song (if you can call an obstacle course for the fingers a "song"), and as such are the bits that are the most recognizable as some sort of music. Taken in isolation, they aren't particularly distinguishable from any random metal riff. But in context I can see how you might see them as exceptional based solely on the relief you feel due to the other bits of the song having stopped.

If I wasn't already up to my rear end in drum samples (BFD, all the NI stuff, and some others), I'd be interested in RealiDrums. Seems like the path of least possible resistance for getting good drum tracks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rToF-fZZes Plus the Realitone dude's voice just immediately makes me happy.

Dang It Bhabhi! posted:Stop playing so god damned fast what's the rush? Fun fact: a lot of the style of modern rock guitar solos is actually a side effect of the way musicians' contracts were negotiated in the 80s and 90s. In an effort to create a more "equitable" distribution of royalties for mechanical song rights that rewarded musicians for their actual contribution instead of just for showing up, several record labels adopted a strategy of paying instrumentalists by the note. This resulted in a situation where guitarists and keyboard players were paid far more per song than bass players, a phenomenon which guitarists began to exploit heavily by adopting a solo style that involved picking as fast as humanly possible. Because rights were proportional, a good shredding guitar solo could basically drive a bass player's share in the mechanical rights down to almost zero, which bass players typically didn't fight back against because they're bass players and therefore constantly high and bad with money. Early speed metal was actually intended to be a humorous ironic commentary on the labor issues created by these absurd contracts, but it quickly morphed into its own thing when oblivious fans began treating it seriously as music. Record labels eventually took the hint and stopped allocating royalties based on number of notes, but by that time the shredding guitar solo had become entrenched and fans had actually grown to like it. The damage was done, and guitar solos have never been the same since. The really stupid thing about the whole affair is that a cursory knowledge of music history would have told the labels that this was a bad idea; the exact same thing had already happened in bluegrass many decades earlier.

Kilometers Davis posted:Thing is, my family was super supportive of my playing early on, still is. My girlfriend always mentions how nice me playing for her would be. I don't. Because I'm an anxious confidence pit. I'm starting a YouTube channel within the next month though to practice getting over that. It's a pretty huge block for someone who wants to share art and music and I know it's worth pushing through. A really good way to get over stage fright is to get used to masturbating in front of people first, then work your way up to playing an instrument and finally singing. How supportive is your family?

Spanish Manlove posted:but it's a girl group! you have to like them Semi-related: over the last ten years, my regular rotation has become more and more female-heavy, to the extent that my current regular rotation has maybe one male-fronted band in it. Not through any intentional engineering on my part; it just seems like more and more female-fronted bands are doing weird experimental stuff that I'm drawn to. I mean there's always been female acts doing cool weirdness, but it just seems like there are SO MANY right now and the dudes are just not doing much.
