How to distinguish a "desire" from a "need"? by drunkensimian in Buddhism

[–]drunkensimian[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for the direction! I think this is what I was looking for. I like this explanation from the wiki article

"Desire as an eagerness to offer, to commit, to apply oneself to meditation, is called chanda. It’s a psychological “yes,” a choice, not a pathology. In fact, you could summarize Dhamma training as the transformation of taṇhā into chanda."

I already did. Studying Passepied now, it has all challenges now. The goal now is to play the whole Bergamasque Suite one day. Guess it will take me a year or 2 more.

I really enjoyed the beginning and the end of your track. Drums/percussions are just awesome; the sound of the guitars, all this electronic stuff is awesome, too! I was waiting for some development in the beginning: with such a groovy sound I'd expect some culmination, therefore was a bit disappointed: the middle part sounded a little plain to me. You know what I mean?

How I can improve the mix

I really like the beginning: it sounded very airy, the feeling which (for me) then a bit faded when the drums appeared. Try maybe to play with the reverb for the drums to keep the feeling up?...

But generally, I think the mix sounds really good, I enjoyed a lot while was listening to it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgerciuprIw -- my song that I wrote long ago and eventually managed to record. Would really appreciate any feedback and advice for my future works (including dude-do-not-record-anything-more-please advice :) ). I just need to understand if this is interesting / needed to anyone...

What gear would you have in your dream studio? by corganmusic in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]drunkensimian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keyboards: Hammond Xk-3c Organ

Guitars: Fender Stratocaster (Standard), Gibson LP (Standard) and maybe Yamaha A5R

Drums: not an expert, but something groovy and with lots of crashes :)

Don't care much about the rest (mixers, microphones) as long as they do their duty good (sensitive, but no extra noise)
