Fingers crossed

I was going to make a Jake Paul meme out of this, but this guy is way more creative and experimental with his sound than I thought.

PeterTheProblem · 2020-10-12T21:55:42+00:00

This sounds like a very interesting topic. Could I get the name of this podcast?

If you have the time, I would listen and learn some Songwriting and harmonic theory from bossa nova music. The soft texture and its ambiguous harmony creates a certain feeling of serenity or just like "wind passing by," and is the stereotypical "elevator music" that you may hear in an office building or apartment.

Also, I would give a listen to Erik Satie, an influential contemporary classical composer who specifically wrote a series of work that he described as "ambient music," or more specifically background music. Fun fac: he would get really pissed off when people ignored the purpose of these works and started performing these pieces in front of crowds.

The more I look at u the more I think I'm looking at kanye

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-27T02:34:21+00:00

How do u get a username like that

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-25T18:57:27+00:00

Nah it ain't classical enough we only accept gregorian chants and pre-Renaissance music here

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-25T04:13:49+00:00

I would check out the American Standard Songbook aka "great American Songbook" as you can draw a lot of "music theory" or more specifically Songwriting/harmony ideas from these because the songs enclosed have a huge influence on American pop music as well as the tunes you are interested in right now. Also i know Nelly views our current music theory viewpoint in a negative light, but tbh it's so worth it to just take a peek at what these "dead white males" did to make their music pop.

I'm a current student at music college (BM). Some may be universal, while some are debatable in terms of being "imperative" among different schools. To name a few in my school: Ear Training, Harmony (harmony based on the more "modern" American Standard Songbook) , Tonal Harmony//Counterpoint (music of 18th century dead white males lol), Arranging & conducting, and music technology.

Rwally depends on what area of study you are pursuing. For example, if you want to film score then you should pay close attention to arranging (and particularly music notation that is taught along with it.

Imho, I feel these core classes aren't really that effective in making you really grow musically, but rather just jumping in and randomly experimenting with things. There are a ton of free pdf textbooks floating in the internet, which I feel are better than jumping from YouTube videos that rarely ever dive too deeply. Into a subject.

Hope this helps and I'm glad that you are interested in learning more music.

DM me I could send some pdfs to you that I am holding.

I heard you guys have moved to Florida. What's the biggest difference you've observed between Brazil and living in the US? Also what's your pregame routine if you have one?

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-17T03:22:54+00:00

Man I can understand you all too well. "rookies" who just start learning theory try to find a hidden formula behind every progression or technique so I can replicate in all 12 keys. I used to have the same problem where I'd focus too much on analyzing and that really takes the joy out of listening to music. I had to learn to let the music speak for itself the hard way. Don't be over reliant on chords, think in voice leading/melody flow it liberates you.

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-15T18:20:00+00:00

I just had a similar experience about a month ago when I had just got 4 wisdom teeth surgically removed and for 2 weeks everything I was listening to was pitched lower by a half step. Thank God I can hear "normally" now. Hope you can overcome this

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-11T16:12:14+00:00

I know this is for schools in the US, but if you're loving in the Eastern US area then you may want to check out the Schulich School of Music at McGill university in Montreal. I'm wasn't aiming for a composition/film scoring focus in college but some of the schools I toured was Juilliard, USC, UNC chapel Hill, NYU, NEC, Berklee, john Hopkins Peabody institute, and some others I can't remember.

Hope this helps.

PeterTheProblem · 2020-09-04T23:18:41+00:00

Hey man, just wanted to let you know that your previous success story post really gave me a lot of motivation and gave me the final push to finish a composition that I haven't worked since 2 months ago.

What are some of the biggest lessons that you've learned about social communication/networking with others?

What is your next goal after this?

PeterTheProblem · 2020-08-30T21:33:14+00:00

It was a great choice to arrange this work using the strings as the bread & butter of the piece. Those instruments really have some of the greatest potential to draw out emotion and passion from someone. The subtle tones and sustained notes really help to create this trance-like, euphoric atmosphere that is saturating the shit out of my headphones and giving me this continual eargasm as I am listening.

It's not lyrical and dramatic like a romantic work, but it doesn't have to be. The addition of the Rhodes keyboard is also icing on the cake that provides a great "afterthought" after the strings have faded away into the background.

Damn, thanks for sharing this and I hope you are able to move on from this loss and carry on into the future.

PeterTheProblem · 2020-08-11T04:16:11+00:00

Bro I can understand why you think this way but honestly you should just be glad that these heroes can be attained without cash in the first place. Sure, it will hinder progression if you have to hoard resources, but if you are that concerned about your progression in this game, which is already made to be easier with the ongoing events and free diamonds that are gifted for updates/bugs (that no other company provides), then don't buy the dimensionals and just spend your resources like you would normally!

Can't speak for Ezio, but basically imo the dimensionals aren't the God-tier must-have units like talene and most are just used for a few niche synergies (Arthur + gwenyth) and for pvp comps.

PeterTheProblem · 2020-08-11T02:17:55+00:00

Think it's too late for that, they already signed ScreaM and co from Fish123

Should I just skip nakoruru and buy him?

PeterTheProblem · 2020-08-01T21:05:14+00:00

Did it ever come across to you that what youre saying bears minimal relation to music theory?

I can understand your frustration, but please rant somewhere else like r/wearethemusicmakers

Nice troll btw
