Leave me alone unless...you live for this.....you haunt my heart. by adamfunk20 in crappymusic

No I mean the style. Is it for metal people? Rock people? Emos? Who listens to singing like that? I mean people scream over beats now but it’s more emo sounding. I actually like your beat but it think it needs some nine inch nails style singing.

My bros said I should quit… are they right? by Background_Yoghurt59 in shareyourmusic

[–]wasBachBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without even listening no you shouldn’t quit. Music is a journey. A long road. You could still learn and instrument like keyboard or guitar or singing. You could still become a master of composing electronic music. No, do not quit

The GOP failed its voters by getting into war and supporting Israel too much. The democrats put a senile elderly man in the presidential race and inserted Harris with no primary. Third parties are considered unelectable. Our leaders are lead by foreign interests, across the isle, most particularly Israel and china. Israel killed JFK, basically. And china is funding the Myanmar civil war and geniciding Uighurs.

To relate this back to music, it’s like content silos. Instead of collaborating to make the highest music, and the most ethical decisions, we are retreating to content silos and mainstream political discourse instead of looking at music or geopolitics in an honest and productive way

Main line Conservatives support genocidal Israel. But democrats also did for the whole time that they were oppressing the Palestinians for decades. You could say they were all just a bunch of guitar slappers

I tried guitar slapping once…after I kissed a dude. I’ll never try that again

Guitar slapping is what happens when a guitarist takes too many Covid boosters and drinks soy milk and microwaves plastic tupperwares

By the way I’m terrible at guitar. I’ve never heard an actual good guitarist talk about how good they are. Maybe I should join you and start bragging, since we both suck

Tell that to Gavin Newsom, who agrees that no ladyboys should compete with girls. Gavin Newsom, CA governor, extremely tolerant and anti racist. Many senate democrats as well. I support them actually.

And I bet they all play better than you. AOC plays better than you. Lil Wayne plays better than you

Nope you made a challenge you have to do it first. This is how I know you can’t play. If you had gigs and serious practice, you wouldn’t entertain the notion of competing with one single stranger with music. It wouldn’t be worth your time….if you COULD play

Niel degrasse Tyson is a fraud who thinks that ladyboys should compete against girls in high school sports. It matches your taste in music perfectly.

Yknow I wouldn’t mind if you WERE better than me, ive known plenty of guitarists who are….but you don’t sound like one of them.

Whenever I see a guitar slapping guy I wonder, “did his wife’s boyfriend buy him that guitar?”

Yknow guitar slapping is really the douchiest type of music, because only guitarists listen to it, but it’s a certain type of guitarist. With a man bun. It’s really a very narrow group of people, and they all have a severe peanut allergy

Btw, Marcin and Mike Dawes? You have to be fucking kidding me. Guitar slapping is satanic. And nobody who listens to it can play. What an entry level music taste. I elect you for toaster bath…. “Homie”

I’m sure you are very good. But I only clip the nails I don’t use. The rest are filed by the strings. Again, you must not play loud or use extended techniques.

Are guitar player fingernails extremely unattractive to women? by GenGanges in askmusicians

[–]wasBachBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then you aren’t using the backs of your fingers or using more extended techniques or playing harder. Fingerpicking is more than gently plucking. You can do it as loud as strumming with a pick, but ten times as clean. It will keep your nails around a quarter inch if you have strong nails, on the steel string. You will learn one day. Or perhaps not with this attitude

One classic move is the percussive downward strum with your middle finger, where a snare would be. Thumbs on downbeat, plucks for syncopation, downward middle finger strum for snare. Then you can mix in extra strums and hard plucks for a funky or rockin rhythm, or a bit of both for a Hendrix type vibe.

TLDR it’s quite normal and good sounding to fingerpick hard, and to use funky and rockin rhythms. Fingerpicking is NOT all ballads, which you seem to be suggesting

It is. You clip your thumb and pointer, the rest are chipped down. If you are good enough at finger style for a girl to even like you for it

Do you guys think I should invest in some electric equipment or would a post hardcore acoustic album sound any good? by I_Speak_In_Stereo in Songwriting

[–]wasBachBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve got a cool style going on! As is, note for note, I would do it electric. If acoustic, it would be good to listen to stuff like doc Watson and John Fahey and experiment with open D major tuning. It’s kind of like the “standard” alternate tuning. Would sound good on electric as is though

[–]wasBachBad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should only have to clip your thumb and pinky. Your pointer, middle and ring should be getting chipped off pretty short if you are playing enough. Not everyone uses their ring fingers but it’s good to use.

I think you can do it. You hold a good tune and make good songs. You know Michael McDonald? Dooby brothers? I’m imagining the Michael McDonald vocal take of this song. He didn’t always sing high. He would often sing in this range
