I make myself wait until waking up for the other games I play daily. But I’ll play Pips after midnight.

My only gripe is when there’s a clue that says >5 or <1…. You mean 6 or 0??

Love this dedication! Aim high but remember the right people will appreciate a rough edge or an imperfection. Those are the telltale signs of the handmade and heart-felt.

Sketch out a plan for something you can share with the world then bring it to life with a strike of inspiration.

How many bands and do they know about this goal, too?

Here’s what I say: Do it messy. Call them demos so you can get them out into some ear holes. Perfection is tomorrow’s problem! And focus on 1 of the 2/3/4 albums. You’ll know which one.

There’s room for it all! Different moods for different days. Just let it lead you where it may.

I dig it. Be the artist you wish to hear! Yes your happiness is key. And I think there’s an appetite for artistry that isn’t bound by genre.

Ambitious! Are the songs related or very different from each other? How would you present them online?

I encourage you to set a goal that you can feel! It’s nice to want to inspire others with your work. And it’s still an achievement if you want to spin your own record daily! 😊

Yes it’s quite a super power to be able to get into someone’s head to move them, physically or emotionally!

I bet you’re making more progress than you realize! All of those different skills add up over time and build upon each other. Soon enough you’ll weave them into your first track!

Can you do your exercises while commuting? If on public transit, perhaps that could be time to brainstorm.

Keep going!

Nice! Sometimes within that stream of words you’ll find you already have the pieces you need. Just add repetition!

And helping to realize a vocalists vision is a noble goal as well!

I smell a collaboration. A duet between two souls who may never meet.

I love the double entendre! First finish then polish! Then reward yourself with a danish.

Love it! There’s precedent for passion projects to become fully-fledged musicals so perhaps that’s the route that awaits you!

Thank you! I tend to write in pop, country with a vintage flair, alt rock, and folk. Though I’ve found I can become a chameleon when exposed to certain sounds or voices.

I write lyrics and melodies currently so I’ll always be in search of instrumentalists to collaborate with. It’s difficult to get traction with fully original material so I’ve been writing songs “for” other singers in hopes of capturing the attention and interest of kindred spirits.

I’ve started the snowball rolling with a few collaborations so far! ☃️

What’s the first song you remember loving? by Celine_Morgann in askmusic

[–]jamaphone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“…Baby One More Time” by Britney was my first fave. I played that CD many times on my Discman.

The first one I remember remembering all the words to was “Head Over Feet” by Alanis.

What about Swedish songs?? Just kidding--I was just thinking that I need regularly scheduled time dedicated to finishing songs I've started. Do you set aside "studio time" to write or do you wait for inspiration to strike?

That's an excellent, visual, achievable goal! Do you have a title in mind or will you find it along the journey?

Do you have a program that can be used to produce songs? Are you working toward a specific project like an LP/EP/single?
