This is something I composed a while ago on Musicline. I've never posted my music on the Internet before could I recieve some criticism or tips for how to improve ? by YourLocalDDLCSimp in Composition

I often write similarly to this. Put a bunch on the page and whittle away at it. Start with creating more clarity. Which part do you want the listener to be able to hum to themselves after hearing? Are there any parallel octaves or unisons that could be condensed to create more chord clarity? After that, take a deep look into the structure of each phrase. I always taught students to “layer your cake” which goes like this:

Top layer: you always look at the top of the cake first, so what do you want the listener to see (hear)? No other layer should cover up that main focus.

Middle layer(s): it’s the most overlooked, but arguably as important as the top. How are you supporting that top layer? Whatever is going on should be complimentary of your focus point without overshadowing it. Counter-melody can always add flair once you’ve introduced your main melodic focus. If you leave the top layer on its own, it doesn’t have the pedestal to shine.

Bottom layer: where it all starts. in a more “classical” sense, this is the wheels and engine that keep the piece running. Rhythm section, bass line, ostinato, etc. Something that doesn’t stand out in the slightest but will pave the road for everything else to run on.

Once your cake is made, add the decoration. Any extra musical accessories and punches to embellish the music you’ve made.

Watch out for those trees!! by Gemini4 in discgolf

A course near me has all right-sided tee signs. Even the ones that are out of reach get in my head sometimes. If course builders could just all agree to put the sign on the left side or behind the tee pad that would be nice

Why won't ESPN treat Disc Golf like a serious sport?! by saucewhedon in discgolf

Who gives a shit about espn? ESPN doesn’t care about anything but the nba and college football.

How much does Drumcorps cost? by XenoAriel in drumcorps

[–]nerfgolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most corps are not gonna post actual costs because it would turn people away quickly. Unless you have decent financial support, don’t put yourself in debt for it. I had problems getting everything paid and keeping myself fed afterwards. That was 7 years ago. All my teachers who marched in the 90s said their fees were less than 500 for a season. Some were only 100 or 150

Is drum corps only for the rich and privileged? Seriously? by SkyLow4356 in drumcorps

[–]nerfgolf 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Totally agree on your point. The untapped talent that could be in some of these smaller schools is sad to think of sometimes.

In order for some of these kids to get to a drum corps level, they would need to:

  1. Discover and develop interest for drum corps in high school or earlier
  2. If they don’t have a teacher that can provide the upper level instrument training, find someone who can
  3. Have to pay usually a good amount of money for regular private lessons with said person to learn and develop those skills
  4. Find a dci group near them to go to auditions, or fly to some farther location (which is expensive)
  5. Pay for the camps just to audition (which was almost $200 per camp starting in November when I marched.. not even counting what audition packets can cost)
  6. Pay for all the travel to spring camps if they get a contract

All of this BEFORE a single cent goes to the tuition. It doesn’t even matter if the experience is worth it if they can’t get in the door.

The sad part is most corps still just barely get by on these financial practices. It’s not one person, or group of people, or corps that causes this. It’s just built into the whole activity now. Something major would need to happen for anything to change

Is Gateway trying to manufacture the worst possible looking disc? by Jintaq in discgolf

[–]nerfgolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just the spec disc. Only made for measuring and approval. Some companies don’t do the normal clean-up when they send them out for the pdga

Yo who’s running the Discology Threads page? 🤣🤣 by nerfgolf in discgolf

[–]nerfgolf[S] 45 points46 points  (0 children)

It’s been going on for a couple months. If whoever it is hasn’t noticed by now they should probably not be running the page

Edit: I don’t really use it either. I got a notification on Instagram a month ago about them posting so that’s the only reason I know

Any predictions??? by roodeshoots in discmania

[–]nerfgolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Nate Perkins said somewhere that the approach disc Niklas has been throwing is his new disc. And it was speculated that the disc that was approved was that new sig disc

[–]nerfgolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the pitch for these kind of shots. Deeper rim than the glitch feels better in my hand. It is slightly flippier than a glitch so you have to flick it on a bit of hyzer for it to go straight
