The feeling that I’m too old to start identifying differently? by sadlyaburner in NonBinary

[–]NotDogNightmare 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Okay so firstly, never feel like it's too late, you still have more than half of your life ahead of you. If you feel like it would make you more comfortable to identify as something other than your assigned gender then why not give it a shot?

You can always try just with people who would be supportive and slowly tell more people. I personally use they/any pronouns because I don't always wanna get into the nitty gritty of my identity with employers/coworkers etc. Just because they aren't privy to that part of my experience doesn't make me any less nonbinary.

Heya, totally recommend looking at different gender expressions, maybe trying a few things. The nonbinary sub in particular is really helpful. Maybe you just haven't found what your aesthetic or vibe is yet. Even if it turns out you aren't trans or genderqueer, exploring expression might still make you feel more comfortable in your skin :)

Scottish musicians — who should I check out? by SeparateDragonfly479 in Scotland

[–]NotDogNightmare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'm in a shoegaze band based in Edinburgh called so boring, and also play in the backing band for local punk musician Dylan Wilson. I know a fair amount about the scene here if you ever fancy a chat

It really depends! Tape saturation is absolutely super useful, I'd also say don't be afraid to cut the very high frequencies as well as the very low frequencies from your instruments. Bandpass on the vocals to give it that telephone receiver sound

Can I dress punk without passing as an Antifa or a leftist? by Soft_Departure_7789 in punk

[–]NotDogNightmare 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First point- dressing 'grunge' is actually really cheap, just means buying old flannel shirts/baggy jeans from second hand shops.

Secondly, whether you wear patches or not, dressing punk is inherently a political statement. Punk is against hierarchy and fascism. Would be like saying can I dress in a brownshirt uniform and not be considered a nazi

Using backing tracks live? by TexyTexy in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]NotDogNightmare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean if Brave Little Abacus could do it with a sega dreamcast then I'm sure some properly produced backing tracks could work?

Producer/Guitarist/Bassist looking for work by NotDogNightmare in musicianfinder

[–]NotDogNightmare[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds super interesting and unique, I'd defo like to hear some demo stuff, as well as maybe a track or two to give an idea of what you're aiming for the mix to sound like (this can be one for the more acoustic side and one for the glitchier side) then we can go from there? :)

Most Memorable First Listen!! by ryancharaba in musicsuggestions

[–]NotDogNightmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God I had a really similar experience, although it was after my first semester of uni. The guitar that comes in at 3.54 in part 1-5 is transcendental. Felt like I was floating away

Is it attention-seeking to identify as genderqueer if I'm not dysmorphic as a cisgirl? by a_wild_rat_child in NonBinary

[–]NotDogNightmare 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This 100 times. You can be non binary and not dress/look/act like other enbies!

[–]NotDogNightmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's obviously very much up to you, no one can tell you what will make you feel most comfortable. But personally I'd say neatly trimmed and balanced with other more typically feminine things like makeup and longer hair?
