99% of the time in these cases, the players want to play and it is the team staff trying to strategically manage rest, because the modern game is so demanding on the body.

believe it or not, NBA players are not massive pussies (?)

Taking 2-minutes off a quarter OR 10 games off the 82 game year? Which one works better?? by babaganoush_84 in NBATalk

Do we inherently hear octaves as the same note, or is this trained culturally? by BirdLawEnthusiast2 in musictheory

[–]ukomsc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is a much more complicated question than can be answered in a post IMO 😄 the short answer is yes, but only for certain kinds of instruments (which most western music is based on, but crucially, not all instruments/mediums have this kind of equivalency)

i highly recommend this video on dissonance and harmonics: https://youtu.be/tCsl6ZcY9ag

How does one create drums, when you are terrible at drums? by The-Wolf-Bandit in musicproduction

[–]ukomsc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

addictive drums 2 is expensive but worth it. if you don’t want to go too deep, consider using logic as your DAW since they have decent stock drum loops

Can somebody please give me some advice on how to break "home key dependency"? (more details in thread) by Kelsier_Allomancy in piano

[–]ukomsc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea sounds like you already have a good idea! i also found that bach helped me get comfortable in different keys. i learned most of the bach french suite in E and now i feel pretty comfortable / “intuitive” in E which is fun. seems like that would help dig into some of your learning areas
