hey, i'm astronun. happy 2020 to every artist out there. i'm new to this, but wanted to speak to some who may need to hear it. this is for you. its crazy to believe that over 8 years ago i searched the internet for some way to create music on a computer, and after countless hours, sleepless nights, and numerous melodies i stumbled upon what very soon became my greatest hobby. i've always had trouble creating music because either it didn't compare to what all of the mainstream artists were putting out or because i was my own worst critique. i struggled to find that "sound" that got the big names to where they are today, and i hated that. i wanted to be noticed. didn't my music deserve recognition? this past year has been huge for me for many reasons. for starters, i began finally singing in my music, which soon became the primary instrument in all the music i now produce. i've always sang in performances, church, shower, etc., but to put it out for the entire internet to hear? that was a huge step. i also noticed how my numbers generally began growing on spotify, apple music, etc., but somehow i wasn't satisfied. here's the biggest thing i've learned; we will never be satisfied if we measure our work up to the worlds' standards. period. in a musical context, i will never be good enough because i'm not as good as "_____" or because i'm not seeing the same numbers as "_____" or my social media doesn't look as good as "_____". we climb up the ladder and we continue to look upwards, upset at how far we have to go without looking down and realizing the bit that we've climbed. i'm proud of the little numbers i've made in 2019. i'm proud of the music that i produce and write and get stuck in my head. i'm proud that my own music is my #1 most listened to artist on spotify. i'm proud of how i work hard to market my own music. and i'm proud to continue on what i love so much in 2020. i hope this speaks to some, if any, of you. celebrate the small victories. love your work because you made it. use others to sharpen your talent, not to create it for you. here's a toast to 2020 and all the victories that lie ahead for all artists out there. God bless. -astronun

Hi. my new year resolution is to create an album with guitarists all over the world, I play bass and can program drums. Ive posted about this before and had some people send me messages but they seem to lose interest after a while. I know this sort of thing happens because I've seen in on Bedroom Bands (https://www.reddit.com/r/BedroomBands) and some other places. Do you think myidea is stupid?

Heyo, I'm Lola, I live in Australia and I am 16. So, I just joined here ( well duh ) and I think music is pretty groovy? I'm not sure what to say, WARNING, I may ramble a tad I really like Twenty One Pilots, Frank Iero, Rise Against, MILK TEETH, Cat Empire and, really I could go one for quite some time. I play electric bass, and am teaching myself piano and that's going quite well. I also write lyrics, which are really shitty at the moment but that's why I've joined here, to improve them. I want to make music after I finish school and I want my music to help people, even if it touches just one person and helps them overcome whatever it is they're going through I feel as if that would be a success to me. Feel free to shoot me a message!

I usually finger it to suit my sound, but in some situations I find picks to be useful. What are your thoughts?

I gave up music for the entire year when my first son was born. I was playing drums in a jazz quartet, and it got to feel like clocking in each Saturday, same venue, same songs, same people, same pay. When I took a paternity leave, I realized I didn't miss gigging, so I quit the band and stopped playing all of my other instruments and only wrote one song that year. My self-identity had been so tied up in being a musician that I needed to know if I could handle life as non-musician. I have to say, it was a great year; I learned to cook, went on a 30 day juice fast, became a yellow belt in Kali/Escrima in under 6 months, and I took up archery lessons. by the time my son turned one, I got the itch to pick up my bass again and decided to take my playing to a new level and I immediately started looking for work that would stretch my comfort level a bit. My first audition was terrible. I was nervous, the band was lifeless and distant as the moon and, although they said I made the cut to the second round of auditions, I never got a call back. Right away that nagging voice in the back of my head started screaming, "give up, you're not good enough, you're parents were right, you should have gotten a job with your sister at her office, you're not in your twenties, you'll never make it as a musician." Even though I wanted to quit, I decided to reply to one more ad for a trio looking for a bassist. A week later I got a call, and unlike the previous band leader, our personalities clicked. Luckily, the band played some of the songs I had already learned for my previous audition so I felt confident. We got together and "jammed" (which is really just an audition but psychologically it takes the pressure off) and I got hired in two of the band leaders bands out of the one jam/audition. The catch was, I had to learn roughly 80 songs in a month (which I did with a similar systematic approach that got me to become a yellow belt in such a short period of time). This isn't the first time in my life where I had to keep going even though I wanted to quit? Does anybody else struggle with that? Do you ever tell yourself things like, " I have been playing for years, but I still can't do (skill/technique/song)?

Since some of us have to lay down all the parts for our own songs, I thought I'd share my latest video lesson. hope this helps some of you guitarist-turned bassists. Quite a few of my students are over 50, and their hands have taken some abuse over the years or just aren’t as nimble as they were when they were younger. Some of them aspire to play some dexterity-driven pieces, like Chet Atkin’s “Mister Sandman” and “Maybelle” or even some simpler finger style pieces like The Beatles’ “Dear Prudence” and “Blackbird.” These songs have a lot of quick chord changes, some of which require some stamina to play barre chords. Others want to switch from playing guitar to learning the bass, but they lack the hand strength. This exercise has helped my students with small, chubby, and weak hands build hand strength, speed, and stamina:

Hi, full disclosure, I dropped out of Berklee College of Music after 3 semesters. I couldn't afford it. I play guitar, bass, piano, drums, banjo, harmonica, mandolin, and saxophones. I worked as sound tech and a recording engineer. Okay, fuller disclosure, I am mediocre at banjo, but I do play the other instruments professionally. I've spent the last ten years learning how learning works, digging for songwriting and performance insights, and performing, recording, and teaching what I've discovered.

Hey, Im a bass/Keyboard player in my band. Im thinking about buying a new pedal to go with my bass, and I found something that looks insane. Its called the hot hand wah, from source audio. check out the website if you want to here http://www.sourceaudio.net/products/hothand/wah.php What the product apparently does, is convert movement from your hand (through a bluetooth ring) into the pedal, therefor producing a wide range of modulation. This product really caught my attention, and I was wondering if anybody has ever used one of these? If so, I would love it if you shared your opinion of the product before I go and spend $150 on this. -Thanks, Harrison.
