[Guitar Picks]

I ussualy use picks that are heavy and bright I like heavy for the main reason that it wont wear off or break so easily...its just me...like bright orange and green...but picks with grip can be useful and a plus..lol I like different shaped picks too but it depends all on if they work with me...

[Shoegaze And Other Beautiful Genres!]

hello i am new here ( i am not trying to spam.i swear)

here is my first topic

shoegaze: one of my favorite genres! Hum,Centuar,ninth paradise and silversun pickups (reply if u know more)

are just to name a few....and i always wanted to know

1.what do you classify as shoegaze?

2.what do you use for shoegaze? and what effects are effective??

3.what's your favorite badn that has this label?

4.what doesn't cassify as shoegaze or space rock?

 

I think what classifys as shoegaze is

really spacey and heavy beutiful tones and slow and mid tempo kind of a sound.

it depends on how they think what it is...but the band HUM and Ninth paradise

are decent examples..mainly hum though cause they influence me so much on what does and doesnt

but the lead singers other band Centaur is a much better example..

 

i dont have any guitar effects as of now..but i plan on buying some pedals soon..

 

my favorite bands are HUM,silversun pickups and Ninth paradise(ninth paradise is a newer band thats really neat)

 

what doesnt classify as shoegaze to me is anyone who doenst put any time or effort in music and just thinks disortion does it all..there is more to it..but im learning more as i go

 

i like alot of genres but shoegaze (or spacerock) is one of my favorites..along with others too though..

what do u think?

what do u like?

what do you use for shoegaze?

[How To Get Fame In This Age?]

yeah im not really into fame..but i do like it when people like my stuff! i play multiple instruments (not at the same time LOL) im indipendant in the likes of making music i cant for the life of me find dedication..so i dont bother forming groups for a while...im maily writing everything a the moment..but at this very moment i have no recording equipment..so i cant really make jack squat....but i know places for cheap mics n such...i ussaly go with cheaper stuff..then get better stuff later on...anyway

the thing about me is im not that creative with lyrics..but i read peoms and other lyrics to get more creative...

i make techno on the side just for fun..i eventally will sell my techno stuff when i feel ready..but for now i aint sellin crap...

i dot really want to get famous maybe popular..but not famus..i couldnt handle the pressure...i only played a handful of shows....no plans on booking anytime soon...but i will make more and more music till the day i bite the dust....i love music and muic is my drug
