Trying to work towards my first album. I have two songs mostly completed and a few in various early phases. I am not much of a drummer so the DrumBrute Impact has been…instrumental in implementing some beats.

    Keep going! I’m working on 7 or 8 songs on guitar and drums, some early stages some almost done and recorded. Kinda like a psychedelic roots thing. Haven’t made an album since my early 20s so I’m just enjoying myself and using it as therapy.

      Awesome! Music can be so therapeutic! My job has been stressful lately but spending all my free time with music has helped keep the balance. Ping me when your stuff gets released. I would like to hear it!

        old stuff

        This album is from when I was about 20. Trip hop, guitar, and my poetry on top. Slightly embarrassing but holds a special place in my heart

            (: I’ll probably post my progress somewhere here on everything, perhaps that’d be interesting to see how it develops, and maybe as sort of a mindfulness practice for me during the process. More content, even if no one gives a F 🤷

              The more the merrier. Plus we can’t all be rock stars but we can at least enjoy music for the sake of enjoying music, right?

                Tbh, being a Rockstar sounds miserable lol. That may be cope, but I’m gonna stick to it. Music is soul food, and once it becomes a job it, maybe, loses its luster? I was pretty serious about original music as a job for a long time, almost got there, tours and stuff, but the whole thing wasn’t my jam yknow. I just love doing it, and if people end up enjoying then that’s just icing.

                I’m looking forward to seeing the community grow and what else pops up around these parts!
