first draft of my first song! as promised it's pretty depressing.

[awfulpunk]

this is insanely racist and I haven't even seen much about this online yet

[checkyourasianbias]

after Bad Bunny won they added a Latin song category and after Rosé got three nominations the grammys added a k-pop/c-pop/j-pop category they have always been afraid of well-performing artists of color challenging white artists in mainstream categories

I think if I heard I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas in the correct circumstances it could move me to tears. It's like the promise of a brighter future that never came to pass

If you have Spotify reblog this and tag what your number one song on your “on repeat” playlist is.

very 🥰🥰🥰 when musicians leave bits in songs where they're saying 'is this thing on?' or 'it's still recording y'know.' chairs scraping, retuning guitars, saying 'let's do that bit again', 'was that take any good?'

[so-i-did-this-thing]

sir do you listen to classical music? If yes do you have any recs?

I am, in fact, a classically trained oboist!

Classical music is an enormous genre, spanning centuries and cultures. Because of my training, I focus on the Western tradition. I enjoy the baroque and romantic periods the most, with some 20th century.

Usually when asked for recommendations (assuming you are new to classical), I lean towards music that feels like a movie soundtrack or otherwise has memorable themes non-musicians easily remember:

Ma Vlast - Moldau: Smetana

Danse Macabre: Saint-Saens

Night on Bald Mountain: Mussorgsky

New World Symphony: Dvorak

Scheherazade: Rimsky-Korsakov

The Planets: Holst

Symphony No. 4: Tchaikovsky (5 is also a banger)

Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis: Vaughan Williams (Lark Ascending is also great)

My personal favorites, however, are what I enjoy playing:

Summer Music: Barber

Trio and Sextuor: Poulenc

Serenade for Winds: Dvorak

Double concerto: J.S. Bach

Sinfonische Metamorphosen: Hindemith

Concerto for Orchestra: Bartok

I do have one exception, and it's that I fucking love the Beethoven Violin Concerto.

[s3mininja]

The RVW piece reminded me of something and I'd love to hear your thoughts, but I have to preface by saying that what I'm about to direct your attention to may (at least at first impression) seem like the worst idea you've ever heard if you're not already aware of it. There's a guy who has a youtube channel on which - among many other pieces - he has posted an arrangement of the entirety of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, note for note (as far as I can tell), but

performed as heavy metal. Also half of the pieces on your intro list (Danse Macabre, Night on Bald Mountain, The Planets (all of them), a medley of RVW) and various others.

[so-i-did-this-thing]

As someone who will argue that power metal is the spiritual successor of J.S. Bach, I love me a good arrangement, and it's especially fun when it changes the genre.

I mean, in the classical music biz, we are almost *all* cover bands of one sort or another. Even when playing something "straight," there is a tremendous amount of variation, and many traditional styles (baroque ornamentation, cadenzas in concertos) outright demand personalization on the part of the performer.

[autumnimagining]

i absolutely must know your favourite power metal bands/albums

[so-i-did-this-thing]

My favorite power metal band is Blind Guardian, and the album is probably Nightfall in Middle Earth.

I also really enjoyed Nightwish when Tarja was the singer - her operatic style was super unique and I love style mashups.

I also liked Falconer a lot when Mathias was the singer -- another genre subversion, as he sang with super-clean vocals with Broadway-like inflections.
