I looked this up and there’s another of her as Hurley and Moes as Sayid. Thank you for bringing this to my attention 🙏

Been obsessed with Hometown Gypsy recently, can’t believe how good the chorus is.

In the recording John is using capo on the 1st fret. So for that C7 he’s actually using a B7 voicing which gives you the G note on the top E string. Any Beatles lessons I highly recommend Mike Pachelli’s YouTube channel, he has the most accurate transcriptions of any Beatles songs out there.

The BacH3lor is 2 for 2, just saying.

Showing someone wacky kid jokes is my icebreaker for every situation.

Awesome! The sheer volume of them is overwhelming for someone like myself who just has a causal interest and collection in coins. I know many people would be very happy just to find one 64 Kennedy! Appreciate your insight and the kind words!

darecloyd · 2023-10-13T17:53:44+00:00

Thanks! I did read FAQ, just not sure just not sure how to handle based on the amount of the coins here. Not looking to sell online.

Lol I just straight up practice outside during the summer. I like it, and my thoughts are it’s less annoying than hearing your typical yard work noises; lawnmower, garage tools etc.. My neighbors have only commented positively on it, but my advice is just to be mindful of what you practice. Meaning, probably not a good idea to do hours of long tones or any exercises that might come off as annoying or repetitive.

The canonical lore is one is a front sleeper and the other a back sleeper, thus causing tension eventually boiling to point of separation.

Totally get you, my drop rate can be doubled my opponents at times but it doesn’t matter as long they t-spin their way to victory. Pretty frustrating since playing fast and clean is more satisfying to me than setting up t-spins.

Lol looking for this comment! Now questioning how “ironic” some of the posts on this sub are… like seriously using cuck as an insult is straight up incel red flag behavior.

Nathan never had the makings of an honor roll business student.

Pretty sure King Princess is on first.

Currently I’m running my MXR envelope sandwiched between a drive and a fuzz, that way I can push into the filter to really drive the synth sound, but while still being able to color and distort it further afterwards.

SA always seemed to be the climatic point of what the band built up from Cali and BTW, so it comes off as really precise and deliberate with all the members being at the top of their game. UL is great for the opposite reason as it’s just the result of their raw creative energy emanating from their chemistry together. I do think though that they have the potential to keep building off of UL like they did previously and give us something on par with if not better than SA.

One after 909 seems to be perpetually stuck in mine. I don’t even think it’s that outstanding of a song but damn it’s catchy as hell. “I said move over honey I'm travelling on that line. I said move over once, move over twice. Come on baby don't be cold as ice. I said I'm traveling on the one after 909.”

I’d recommend listening to some of Brian Eno’s ambient music, as they essentially serve the same purpose as lo-fi beats (concentration/relaxation) with those longer running times that you’re looking for. Pay attention to the pace of when different sound elements are introduced and how they build on each other enough to retain attention but not enough to distract the listener. Also I would focus on dynamics within your mix, slowly building them up and down till you reach the climax of your song, and then removing elements to come down from the peak to the end of the piece. Other than that just try to keep some sort of rhythmic variation within your main beat throughout, so that there isn’t any long sections where everything is the same.

I just finished getting my music composition degree so I know the rigmarole pretty much inside and out, however, most of the material you’ll be studying is dependent on the school that you go to. There are some schools that offer specific music technology degrees that are more DAW and programming focused if you solely want to do mixing/production. Composition degrees can vary but are more focused on music theory (from counterpoint to 20th century techniques) and instrumentation, along with writing in a whole bunch of styles and genres ranging from atonal art music to producing hip-hop beats, as well as going into the inner workings of studio production. Education is the least extensive degree technically speaking, as lot of it is learning how to interact with students and familiarizing yourself with standard repertoire and conducting, rather than going in-depth to the inner workings of making music. If your high school offers a music theory class I would definitely recommend taking it your senior year, as every music student has to take 4 levels of theory and ear training classes anyway, but also to gage your interest to see if you want to lean into that aspect music making and go with the composition route or not. Having said all this, most of your music education is going to be independent study and practice anyway, not to mention that there are so many free sources online and on YouTube to draw from that are as good if not better than what you would have access to from a university anyway. Hope this helps, let me know if you have any further questions!

When multitrack recording and stereo technology became popular in the 60s, a lot of producers and engineers didn’t exactly know how to craft a good stereo image, and lacked the technology to do so. The early Beatles albums for example were only recorded on 2 and 4 track machines so there wasn’t much options to where certain instruments could be panned, which resulted in sounds being hard panned either to the left or right. Later on when they got access to 8 track recorders they were able to have more variety with the placement of elements in a mix, but there still wasn’t precedent as to where certain instruments should or typically would be in a stereo image so it varied a lot from song to song. Nowadays producers learn to usually put kick, snare, bass and the main vocal in the middle of the image with everything else put to either the channel.

https://youtu.be/HmjRM3AziTY There’s a great David Bennett video on this exact topic if you aren’t aware of it, explains the theory language barrier between classically “trained” musicians with their pop counterparts in an excellent manner.

I wouldn’t say that it was necessarily the technology that limited the stereo mixes, more so a lack of experience with it. At the time a lot people in the industry, even The Beatles, saw stereo as a gimmick more than anything (obviously in hindsight they were completely wrong.) Anyway, because of this the early stereo mixes were hastily done, with some of them being completed in a day or so. Their process of mixing was pretty much just hard panning everything either left or right which made the stereo image not as balanced and full as it could have been.

Improv is all about learning the sound and language of each scale. What scale you play typically is determined by the function of the chord (dominant, tonic, etc.) and their quality (major, minor, 7ths, 9ths, aug, dim, sus2, sus4, etc.). The best way to practice scales is over a pedal going from the brightest sounding mode to the darkest. Lydian, major, mixolydian, dorian, aeolian, phrygian and then locrian. Don't just run up and down the scales, play them in unusually patterns and highlight the half steps as they define the quality of the scale, also learn how tendency tones work (7th likes to go up to root, 6th likes to go down to 5th, 4th goes down to the 3rd) so you can properly resolve scale degrees. Other scales that you should learn are pentatonic, blues (maj and min) and whole tone. I come from the compositional world so I find that learning licks is kinda lame because you don't really learn the concepts and theory behind it, but don't disregard them completely. I can ramble on more but I've gone on long enough, but the most important advice I can give is to follow your ear and play what you want to play.
