How many musicians we got here on Lemmy?
-
[email protected] has like 2 posts a week, I am sure people would gladly see it going to 3 posts a week
Damn, a boy can only dream. Imagine 2 posts with a comment each. I've subbed.

I play the Penny Whistle!
Penny whistle gang unite. Go find a Lemmy community and follow it. Heck you could find the guitar community and take it over with their paltry numbers.

Answer to title: 2, maybe 3.
There's dozens of us!

Have you subbed/followed any piano Lemmy communities? Piano4all on udemy is really good for learning piano. That's how I started out. Cost me 11 euro total, practiced 15 mins a day. And look at me now.... I can.... Kinda play lol
I'm learning in person, but thanks for the suggestions

Do you have any recorded music uploaded on bandcamp or similar? If not, you should!
wrote on last edited by [email protected]I recorded and released a couple of EPs with a band once, but they were only released physically. I have also recorded a couple of metal versions of tracks from the Outer Wilds soundtrack. They're a bit rough because they were very much the process of me actively learning how to do these things, but I'm still pretty pleased with them
I am trying to record some proper music of my own, but sadly my health nosedived and I've struggled to be productive on much at all. Still, the effort continues! However long it takes me, it will be done one day

Music discussion is very lacking here for. Compared to reddit. And yeah I know, 'just post then'. But when I search for music communities here they're empty. And it makes sense because no-one is posting. So kind of a catch 22.
now i dont exactly know how all this lemmy stuff works but... to all you musos out there, can you join me and search for music under communities (I'm using summit app) and just at a minimum subscribe to all the ones that you would be interested in(if they were popping off)?
At least that way when one of us posts, the rest of us will actually see it (I suspect).
Anyway. Keep making the world more fun for everyone else.
P.s if your not a musician, but you like golf or something, subscribe to the golf communities even if they're empty.
I'd love to have a music theory comm. Like discussing some passages and analyzing things beyond the basics

Pro or no. I'm looking for people with the spark for music. It sounds like you are getting your feet wet as a generalist. Singing and lryicism is my main, but I dabble in the rest to pull together recordings of what's in my head. Nice to meet you. What communities would you like to see more active on Lemmy. And have you subbed to similar ones already?
Nice to meet you too! Writing lyrics is one of the biggest blocks between me and putting together complete songs of my own, which is a little galling because I have been paid many times for non-lyric creative writing. I just need to practice more until I can do it (or find someone who has lyrics but doesn't know what to put under them, I suppose)
I dabble in the rest to pull together recordings of what's in my head
This is exactly how it happened for me, yeah! I had ideas and I wanted to actually hear them, and the rest sprang from there
I'm not a particularly heavy fediverse user, but I am subscribed to [email protected]. No matter how much I enjoy trying out different aspects of musicianship and putting them together, there is no doubt that my first love is guitars
I wonder if a more general community for music creation would be a better approach? Seeing as we're a relatively small number of people here it's maybe more useful to specialise the community less just for the sake of gathering more of us together? I don't know a damn thing about running or promoting communities though

Have you found any Lemmy communities for folk music yet?
None that I know of. I'd love to see it though!

I love acoustic and classical guitar. Never could make electric work for me. Maybe had I learned jazz things would be different. Just too hippie

Have a look at 'addictive drums' it has a bunch of preset midi grooves that you can play along to and mix and match. It's pretty plug and play and may be a comfy way into dipping your toes into midi
that's fine but it also kind of sounds terrible or too "plastic", I'm thinking of buy an electric drum set and learning drums and through learning I'll be able to pick through the samples I like using and in turn that ends up kind of pre-mixing some of my drum recordings (if it gets to that)
I know what you mean though, I'm on Linux so the options for those I'm not sure is the same as windows. addictive drums might just not work
-
Ey nice! What kind of music communities would you like to see on Lemmy?
Not really sure, but I’ll probably join what I find.
-
Hey bro anytime you're done with my EH Small Stone, y'know. Feel free to bring it back.
Sorry, traded it in for this guy. Will bring it over next time we have a beer and a bud.

There is a guitar pedal community on Lemmy go search and sub to it. Lemmi see that pedalboard!
Was subbed to it before we got kicked off lemm.ee. But yeah I should rejoin and give it a post.

Mostly American stuff, the way I like to play solo is with fingerpicking chord melodies. I'll usually try to find a way to play the tune with my open chords and then mix in some other voicings to spice it up.
When playing early dance music I prefer to strum diads though; I'm usually in the middle or low register in a dance pit, filling out the sound for the melody instruments like vielle or citole.
Dyads makes sense actually, the closest I've ever gotten to finding a sound I like for it is when I'm playing my guitar that I keep in open C tuning. Vielles and citoles would be a rare sight over my way, but violins take on the exact same role. Thanks for the advice!

I traded in my pedal collection for a GT-3 decades ago, and I won't look back.
I get option paralysis when I don’t keep things dedicated to one pedal-one sound. I had a GT-1000 for about a year and never felt at home with it. Way happier with a small watt tube amp and dedicated pedals.
-
Have you followed/subbed to the bass communities on Lemmy? The more people do it, the more they'll talk there. Just gotta take the first baby steps.
It's posting that really gets the ball rolling. Spread out over days/weeks helps a lot.

I used to play saxophone, clarinet and flute for years, but then I moved to Australia and I didn't bring any of them with me. They're expensive here, too, so I can't bring myself to buy another..
Though now I have an Irish low whistle, I haven't had a chance to really get in to it because of changing jobs, moving houses, etc etc. The lack of buttons is challenging.
I admit, though, I have a longing to just get back in to a community band again just to be surrounded by music again.

I'm a musician with dreams of opening a donations based label and covering a different genre every album. Currently releasing a mixtape where each song is a different genre.
Most recent release was on July 4th to protest all the horseshit going on in America: https://youtu.be/RsS5mFz-WgA
Also have a video explaining my dream a bit more here: https://youtu.be/1SROCLSPY9U

Bro. Where's the link!
It's all in the mind
