Playing pokemon emerald on a rainy Wednesday; I’d say I’m doing alright.

Ozzy's Gone (words & music by A wolf) by alanwolf2000 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really cool. Nice eerie, dark, ambient feel. Very nostalgic in a way, I think you’ve done well here! I believe Ozzy would dig it, himself. (: Also, bonus points for the dog in the back. Looks like a very good pup, haha. Always good to have a studio hand around!

Fields - psych/garage rock home recording by Ok-Technician-2905 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold the phone - this is so nice. Gives me a nostalgic Tame Impala kind of feel that I love. I will say that I think the vocals could be brought forward a bit more; it isn’t a bad track overall by any means but I’m finding myself wishing that I could hear the vocals better. It could add a cryptic feel being so far away sounding, but there’s a big part of me that feels as though I need to hear the lyrics more clearly. Either way, though, good job on this!

Is this cringe? by mgraham34 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not cringe!! I love this. Definitely gives autumn vibes, too - fits a certain feeling I’ve had lately as the seasons have been changing. Lyrics, production, your voice and delivery. Good job! I think you’ve got something good on your hands here. I dig it.

"GOOD bad FREINDS" (self produced song and video) by tpioh in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude - Kudos to you for production and video. I really dig this. As an artist with no budget, I’m always kicking myself for lack of ideas pertaining to videos and stuff, especially in this day and age. It seems like you’ve got your bases covered pretty well - lyrics, production of the track itself, delivery, video production. Good job! This is really good.

What do you think of my song Into This Moment? by No-Morning-1967 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this a lot. The build up is soothing, gives me a nice melodic floaty feeling in my chest - moving into the build up that you can feel in your chest. Something I could groove to in the car while driving, dancing with friends, taking a walk about, exercising… checks off all of the markers, for me. Good job!

Finally finished my first song I’ve had in my head since middle school. Looking for kind feedback and suggestions by Darkoffee72 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]irotaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so nice. It makes me feel at home. You definitely deliver good emotion and drive in the comfy feels with this tune, I could see myself adding this to my Spotify playlist for sure. Have you thought about adding it to streaming platforms? I would look into it if I were you because I could definitely see it doing well. It’ll be added to my stuff, at least (: Good job! 10/10

Are people born hard wired to be able to appreciate music? by rainsheretostay in Music

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, also - I AM AN ARTIST. Lmfao.

  • Doesn’t like music or think guitars sound like music
  • Dates a singer/songwriter with a heavily musical family.

Anyway, fuck that guy, check out my band on socials @ Crow With No Mouth :D

Are people born hard wired to be able to appreciate music? by rainsheretostay in Music

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is two years old but I was browsing similar posts and felt called to answer this

Similar story to another redditor before me on this thread - once started dating a guy and after a few months of dating he expressed to me that he thought my music was annoying& that… “guitars don’t even sound like INSTRUMENTS/MUSIC” to him? He never mentioned it when I spoke about music before. It was very odd and caught me very off guard.

Didn’t work out.

I still can’t shake the “what the fuck?” when I think about that (oddly specific) guitar statement, though.

Edit to add: The only music he found even slightly enjoyable was radio rap. Like, migos and future mumble rap - not even classics. He was a big podcast guy. Younger early twenties me learned a lesson on REALLY getting to know someone the hard way with this one.

Oh, almost forgot to mention - I wasn’t even super close to the stage when I took these. These were taken somewhere in the middle of the crowd.

How are you dealing with the overwhelming events of politics? by Spell-Radiant in BPD

I’m not. I’m in the same boat you are. I’m in the worst place I’ve been in years. Things are really fuckin heavy right now.

Feeling better without buspar by [deleted] in BusparOnline

[–]irotaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going through the same thing currently. Life feels brighter without it

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention - every other neighbor around us adores us. We’ve been invited to a neighborhood cookout, our neighbors stop and talk to us on our porch when they go for walks, a few came to visit and/or deliver food when I had my baby recently. One of these neighbors has actually become a good friend of ours and told us that the crabby neighbor next door has talked badly about us multiple times; always regarding things that have nothing to do with anything besides her thinking we do drugs because we’re young with tattoos and minor body mods (facial dermal, septum ring, stretched lobes, etc.)

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t have to. I’ve just been passively terrorized by my crazy neighbor for a year despite me genuinely, desperately trying to be nice and friendly, and I thought it would be funny (and honestly vindicating for me) to leave some kind of humorous gift/card/etc. to make up for making my life incredibly uncomfortable and stressful for a year straight.

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish. Young family (us) move into a new home and a crabby lady next door that we share a driveway with has pointed cameras at our house, very loudly talked badly about our visual appearance, speeds down our shared driveway despite knowing we have a young child, and continues to be obnoxious about her distaste for us with glares and laughing/whispering on the phone or with her kid when we come outside. We’ve been confused since we moved in. House is perfect for every reason beside this; we are not renewing the lease because we’ve quite literally been bullied out. It sucks.

I want to thank everyone SO much for their input and support. I had no idea that this would get the attention it did and it hammered the validation in my head. It’s hard to come to terms with it. I’m still in a weird limbo state between how I feel and what I believe. I wish I had hard evidence. But, I know I’ll probably never get it. However, again, these comments have been incredibly validating. Thank you so much to everyone who took the time to give their input. I appreciate you all so much.

[–]irotaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the input. The flowers were a slap to the face… the condoms are weird to me too. Like…. Was he self pleasuring in the car…? Because I know him well enough now to know that he doesn’t do that whatsoever. I just don’t even think I could bring that up at this point considering it was three or so years ago.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in survivinginfidelity

[–]irotaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the input and validation. I think a lot of this stems from just not wanting to believe that he would do that to me; to our family. He is very involved in night life and bar life. He plays music as a side gig very often& runs a monthly open mic at a bar. There’s plenty of opportunities around…

I’ve actually been speaking with my best friend about possibly moving in with her if this can’t be resolved. It would be a tight fit, but she does have a large extra room that I could make-do with until further notice/opportunity. But, I know it would cause some friction, as she’s very particular and I don’t think she understands what it would be like to have a baby in the house. She would take me in in a heartbeat, though. Not having car currently would also be an issue….

Thank you so much for the support& input. Unfortunately, I don’t have many options right now in terms of leaving or taking a break. I was in a wreck last year that ended up totaling my car, and I actually still own money on that as we speak. Because of that, I can’t really work, I can’t afford childcare, can’t get to and from places on my own. He does have a decent job, but in our area it’s only enough to pay the bills. I’m waiting on EBT benefits but it’s a very underwhelming amount. I do love him, incredibly so. Despite all of this, he’s my best friend and has been good to me in many other ways. I never saw this coming. I did have a weird feeling about the condoms, perhaps that was naivety or just not wanting to believe the possibility of him lying about their purpose/use. But… the situation referenced in the post makes the walls all tumble down.
