Trea.. I need some help with my song. I'd really appreciate it if you went on MSN just for a few minutes.

Ahhh, sorry, I didn't see your post last night... what are/were you needing help with?

Just some advice.. I got some from a composition major, but I'd appreciate yours too.

hey gav might want to be friendly with this dude.

hes only like a comp professor at Curtis Institute. No big deal or anything. Only the most selective music college in the world. *shrug*

Haha, Ludwig - made me think of Lunig for some reason... strange persons.

I'll see what I can do - I'll just finish off some work for school coz they're piling on the SACs right about now.

*laughs at self*
At least I finally got it recorded - albeit a horrible recording. Imaginations plz.

Cheers Kev and plz do Trea.

There's actually some very musically talented kids on these forums.
Well done to 'em all. I'm impressed.

Hey Trea tell me what you think about my description of a Minuet and Trio movement:

"The minuet and trio movement is generally the third movement of a four movement sonata. The form of said movement is M-T-M where M represents the minuet and T the trio. Of course when the reprise occurs to the minuet, it is given a different name; "da capo". Both the minuet and trio are in binary form so the movement can be represented by AB-CD-EF(AB). The minuet is a French dance in simple triple time with a moderate to slow tempo and is played gracefully and without an anacrusis. The trio is generally for three voices (such as a bassoon and two clarients). In G major, I would expect the first minuet to be in G, and the trio to be in either the dominant, subdominant, parallel or relative minor (that is, D major, C major, G minor or E minor) and then the da capo will retun to G major."

Ok. So I don't normally lurk in here much, but recently I have been hanging out trying to answer people's recording questions etc. etc. Which I hope has been of some help. I've studied Music Business and a Diploma of Music Industry Technical Production (Sound Recording/Live) at Technical College (North Sydney TAFE).

Blah Blah Blah...

I guess the point I'm trying to make is just to introduce myself. I hope I don't sound too pretentious or up-myself or anything.

I was just wondering, who are the other people in here who have some knowledge in Sound Recording/Production??

Yeah, I convinced the rest of the band to lure the vocalist into the sewer and murder him because he's ginger and ginger people are ****ing disgusting.

Hi everyone, my name is Elizabeth and I am 15-years-old now. I live in Finland and I loooove to sing the most. I also have a bass, but I'm not so good at playing it. I'm pretty much a starter with it. ;)

My absolute #1 idol is Michael Jackson. If I would tell you why, this post wuldn't have an end, but I can say that he is just and amasing performer, songwriter and singer. *LOVE HIM!* I also like Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Celine Dion to mention some.

My ultimate dream is to become a famous singer in the US someday. I'm not that sure if it will ever happen, but hey, you can dream, right? ;D But I am really, I will not be satisfied or happy of my life, if I won't reach my goal. I've been wanting this since I can only remember.

That's all I can say right now, hope I'll get many good tips about singing and maybe also about playing the bass here. :)

Hey I'm J I'm new to this I'm 15 and I play Acoustic, Bass, Electric (6 string). I'm looking for members for a band I'm startin and when I say members I mean a drummer. O and I play baritone.

"Band Nerds" kinda of a sucky name huh

What are you in choir or something?

You might've wanted to add that the trio is usually gentler in contrast to the M's, but yea... :)
/LATE! reply

Hey Gav, I have a possible proposition for you. We're playing a piece called the Warsaw Concerto - dunno if you know it - during our annual concert (end of July) and it has a solo piano part. So Richard was asking if we knew anyone. He was pretty much implying he wanted a uni player or something, but hey, you might be good enough, I have no idea! It's about a grade 8 or so piece...
You won't get payed or anything, but I'm just seeing if you think it's possible and if you're even interested. Other people have contacts as well so it's no biggy if you can't - just thought it'd be cool.

Woah Chris, marathon day you had back there.

Haha, I'm ashamed. The Blues (AFL, guys, AFL!) hired our band to play at some of their matches as a direct result of our Davis Cup gig. Why them!? :p
Nah, it's really quite awesome. The first match we play at is the Western Bulldogs v. Carlton match (16th June I think) so every time we're not playing the Carlton club song or whatever I'll be barracking for the opposition :grin!:

G'day to all the new kids :).

I make music under the pseudonym Log S.
Don't know what my music would be categorized as, but you can hear it here:
[url]http://www.log-s.tk[/url]

anyway, I'm currently influenced by Velvet Underground, The Smiths, Pulp, Faust, Gorillaz, and The Fall, so if you like any of those you may like some of my tracks.

Nice site, by the way.

Haha, yeah look Trea.

I just got my hands on a copy of Grieg's Warsaw Concerto, and it's pretty nuts.

Could you get me sheet music and I'll give it a look and see?

Wait.. are you talking about the Addinsell one? I have that one.

Um.. yeah, give me some sheet music. Those arps are pretty intense so I'll have to have a look.

Lol, I know it's crazy, that's why I'm saying it's fine if you can't (and probably why they were asking for a uni student to do it :p).

I can't remember whos it was though, coz we just sight read it yesterday... and I was busy thinking about how awesome New World's sounding >_<.
Anyway, I'll talk to someone tomorrow and see if I can get a copy for you.

Alright I might be getting a copy of it on Tuesday but I'd appreciate it if you looked anyway!

Ya know.. this would be a lot easier if you just went on MSN. You could convince the rentals that it's school related.

Truth. But hey, I doubt you've got a computer in the shower right now, so... :p

Hey, my name is Dave I live in Ireland, and Im 15.
I play guitar, drums and bass and I work in a studio doing Producing and Engineering. Its a fun but hard and time consueming job, worth it in the end tho!

Im in a band called Heresy (I post music up here but its not heresy as we are recording our album) We have interests SpineFarm records who have Children Of Bodom on their team so we are considering it....So thats basically my story!

Hey, that's awesome. Nice to meet you :)

Chris, would it be possible to temp. sticky the two song-making challenge polls for last month's challenge? We need them both and one could easily get lost on another page or something. Just until the votes are in, if that's okay.

No problems.
Let me know when they are due for an un-stick.
:)

/grateful
Thanks :)

Oh 'n Gav, Derek seems to think that it's the Addinsell one. I know it's not the Grieg one anyway.

Hahaha, the Grieg one doesn't exist.

It's the Addinsell one (that is.. the only one :p).

:upset:

Haha, me with my leet knowledge of classical :rolleyes: :thumb:

My bad for saying it was Grieg in the first place.
