    • 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Currently listening to Madison Cunningham. She’s been out for about a decade now, and won some Grammy awards. Still her YouTube channel still has only 53k subscribers. It should at least have a billion. To those my age who love to complain that there’s no good music anymore, just listen.

      99.999999999% of the time I play real basses. I only have 7 of them (down from 11). I only have 2 guitars (down from 4, and maybe down 1 more soon), I have real drums but I’m not a drummer and the only drummer I’m willing to have in my home to record now lives too far away to do that anymore, so I’ll probably be selling my Yamaha Oak Custom set…Read More

    I see The Wall as being one of the most active parts of this community in the future. I believe if you give it a shot and use it for a while and get comfortable with it, you’ll see why.

    One of the features that was requested a lot for LinkedMusicians was to have the option for light mode and dark mode. Most of the time I use the site in dark mode, but occasionally use it in light mode. What's your preference?

    Which mode do you prefer to use for the LinkedMusicians website?

      On a somewhat related note (okay, it’s totally a tangent), my daughter and I were on a long car ride and I put on a playlist of 90s tunes and I told her, “The singer in this band is the guy who wrote the Simpson’s theme song.” True story. Of course, he wrote the song with more than a little help from the Jetson’s theme song.…Read More

    I’m getting soooo many emails from plugin and sample developers that read something to the effect of “Black Friday is Finally Here!” Um, no, it’s literally not finally here. Even more, I’ve started getting these on Tuesday — which, according to my research, is still not Friday.

One thing I’ve always found is that once I get started, I can easily start coming up with riffs — that’s always come easy to me. I used to write for a band back in the day, now I have no…Read More
