Just go the whole roaster and take a shit in the urinal, that'll learn them.

Because you behaved completely differently when you started on here.

Learn to record music yourself, write your own and self-release on bandcamp/whatever until you're old enough that others in your year start to develop an interest in being in a band. Then you'll have a bunch of songs that you can start a full band with or you can Lord it over them as an established solo artist. If you want to play to people, set up a YouTube account and webcam yourself playing tunes. Works for tons of people. There are live streaming platforms out there where you could play 'virtual' gigs as well. Seriously though, don't let lack of interest from your peers worry you. I was one of two people who listened to alternative types of music when I was at school. I didn't like the other person. I've been in bands, released music and am now releasing solo music. You'll get where you want to be, just keep going

I've pretty much finished my first solo EP. Just a few tweaks here and there. I set myself a target of having it finished before the end of August so it was finished in advance of my 2nd kid being born in September/October, mission accomplished Pretty happy with it and looking forward to starting work on an album next year.

I can hear the clav as I type this...

Thanks man, just struggling to land on a 4th song for the EP. Hopefully have something sorted over the weekend. Will mail you those vocals too!

Thanks glad you enjoyed listening to it. I've definitely left a kinda dark undertone in there for atmosphere. Hopefully have the rest of the EP finished come end of this month and all being well it will be released on the Binary School label, Binary Trax

You obviously haven't seen Billy Zane as the Phantom or Nicholas Cage as Ghostrider...

Yeah, aside from this forum (which has about 10 regular posters) I don't really frequent any music forums at all. I found a lot of the other "gear" or recording ones a bit snobby but I may just have hit the wrong ones. I'm not sure what electronic music forums there are either. I'll have a scout about. I'll also have a look at my tags on Bandcamp too! I'd not really thought about blogs, not sure again what ones would be worth looking at electronic music wise as I don't read any myself

Cheers, it's probably just my bass playing but I just wanted to add a little "thump" to it. In that respect it fits the sort of grind of the others. I'm aiming this EP as a sort of concept based around sex/love. Sleeper will be track 3 which kind of represents bliss or euphoria. I have track 2, Night Moves (which has been described by at least one person who's heard the bones of it as "shagging music"), tracked out I just need to put some frills and get a vocalist. I'm also working on track 1, The Chase, and track 4, Glow. But they're a bit further behind in terms of development. Where I'm headed with it I've got clear in my head at least Thanks again for listening though.

Cheers, that's an interesting way of approaching it. I'm not sure I understand Twitter completely. I do have an account, but I hardly use it, might have to give the above a try once I have more content.

I'm not new to the idea of getting music out and about but what do you folks find to be the best way of pointing people in the direction of your music? Facebook is a bit hit and miss (though I have had a decent bit of success out of it recently when I was in Needleman it always felt like a struggle), I use bandcamp and soundcloud but to me both seem to be aimed more at established acts rather than at those looking to use it as a launchpad. I'm specifically at a loss with electronic music as I'm not really that knowledgeable about that scene. Any ideas or discussion welcomed.

Thanks

Thanks man, I'm a massive Cinematic Orchestra fan so there's a minor (and obviously less talented) nod to them I guess.

That's cool, cheers for listening though! I'm the same, I hate saying "it's not my cup of tea" and if I can be a bit more constructive I will. How did you find it from a production point of view? I don't even see your feedback as negative really, backgroundy is synonymous with ambient for me and I can cope with people not liking my stuff Thanks for taking the time out to listen though.

Hi folks, I've been working on some solo stuff for a little while now and I'm finally at a point where I'm ready to share the first track from my new EP, Ghostwood. You can hear it on https://ladywantsaudio.bandcamp.com/ Would be great to get some feedback on it please (good and bad, both welcomed). Feel free to like my page on Facebook too https://www.facebook.com/ladywantsaudio/ Cheers!

I think Eddie Howe would've been a good shout, Sam can probably handle the egos in ways that Howe couldn't but I think Howe has more tactical ability and plays more attractive football, especially with attacking players in mind.

Couldn't agree more about Pogba, he's great at surging forward and creating a bit of solo brilliance but he's not the great team player capable of getting stuck in one moment and then dictating the tempo of the game the next like Kroos and Modric (I'd also say a fit Schweinsteiger is better as well).

Cammy Bell to Dundee United, nice work.

'Tis shite for sure

You won't be soon...

But what about the Stovies?

Good stuff, hope things are good for you down there. Are we talking Devon/Cornwall or the other side?

Smells like restraining order.
