Roaring Lion 0 Report post Posted September 26, 2009 I'm learning Violin, and I've been using Fruity Loops for three years. I also try to DJ (very badly) now and then. Violin is cool, but Viola = AWESOME!!! LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voltomere 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 My life as a musician started when I was in fourth grade. I started on the Euphonium (resembles a small tuba with same range as a trombone but with a different tone) and by the time I was in sixth grade I was playing with the high-school band. I picked up the trombone in the eighth grade and play that as my primary instrument now. I am also an accomplished singer. I was the only boy in the chorus from sixth grade to my freshmen year. I was picked on brutally for this. I became very solid at holding the male parts, singing tenor and bass parts as needed although my natural range is baritone. Finally a bunch of my friends realized what I had known for a long time, the chorus was where all the girls were. I finally had some back-up for the first time. I do compose some as well and have even won a contest before and got to perform it, that was so cool!!! I also play around with Beatboxing a lot because it uses a lot of the same muscle groups as the embouchure for trombone. When I am not at college I cantor masses at my local church. I serve the lord through music and I would love to be in a christian band someday - I appologize about the length of this post but music is a passion of mine and I could talk all day about it. P.S. I can circular breathe so if anybody wants to learn how let me know. It might be difficult to do over the internet but I would give it my best to teach you.

Direlda† 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 You know how to circular breathe (O.o). I need to learn how so that I can actually get decent at the didgeridoo (my brother was kind enough to get me one when he was in Australia ^^ ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voltomere 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2009 Yeah I can circular breathe . My grandfather told be the basics and I practiced really hard until I was able to do it. I am out performing this evening but should be able to help you some this weekend. -Didgeridoo is awsome although I have never played one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpecklesGreyHighoof† 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 THanks for asking, Johnny! I'm a lyricist and a drummer. I can write lyrics with only an idea to go on, it comes quite naturally. I can't write music, though, to save my soul! (nightmare: *no, no! I'll write music, I swear! AHHH!*) Drums are the only instrument I've stayed with. I just love to pound out patterns as I play along to music (August Burns Red is the best!). Hmm, I think I've been writing for about three years. I have a few songs on Furrsfurchrist.com. Check 'em out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
