Socky

Thanks everyone again for the warm welcomes, and thank you Tom for explaining this bit to me I can already see this place is very friendly! Love, Socky.

Thank you for the warm welcome everyone Bernd, I'm not sure if linking to my bandcamp would be considered a commercial link because while it's mine, it also has some "buy" links (I haven't quite figured that part of the rules out yet, as English isn't my first language and legalspeak confuses me in general) But I hope it's okay to share my album as a playlist on soundcloud ( https://soundcloud.com/sockface/sets/rat-manicure ) and if you guys could explain to me the exact meaning of commercial link like I'm a particularly dumb five year old that would be great and very well appreciated Thanks and love, Socky. Edit: I forgot to give the usual warning I give when I link my album, basically I made it at 20ish knowing nearly nothing, wrote all the songs and played all the instruments with my limited skills, so please don't expect too much of it. There's a reason I'm trying to learn more. I also am not quite sure on the genre, I just described it like other people have described it.

Thank you Tom And thanks for the link, I'll be sure to read up on the rules.

My friend recommended this place to me, and it seems very cool so far. I'm a semi-amateur musician from Akureyri, Iceland. (I say semi-amateur because while I've made one album, I don't feel like it's up to par with other albums. It's a self esteem thing, probably.) I mostly do weird experimental folk rock something stuff, so there's no guarantee people will like it, but I'm trying to branch into different kinds of songwriting. I sing, play a bit of drums, the ukulele, a little bit of guitar and piano and I sort of am terrible at bass guitar. (I did play bass on my album, along with all the other instruments, but that was mostly because of a lack of resources) Thank you for having me here Love, Socky. (Also, I've been trying to search for the forum rules and haven't found them yet. If anyone could link them to me that'd be great. Thanks.)
