I didn't see any musician thread, so I'm making one. Budding musician? professional looking for critique?

Or are you just a massive attentin grabber like myself.

I'm a singer, and composer going through music college myself. Any of you play music?

[Remalle]

I've been playing guitar for about half a year now, and I'm finally getting good enough to play songs without making people around me kill themselves.  I used to play keys, but I'm about three years out of practice, not that I was ever good at that.  I've been told my voice is "angelic", when I don't sound like a wounded hog.  I want to learn to play bass.
But enough of what I'm mediocre at.  My true medium is the mix.  My instrument is the recording console.  I'm a sound tech, and I'm good at it.

I used to play a few instruments, but nowadays I compose electronic music more than anything. I made music for a rap album last year, and I'm in the middle of making a MIDI soundtrack for a small game project.

Why not post us some links then? I'm interested to see what bay12 has to offer musically.

[Bdthemag]

Eh, I play a little bit of guitar. And I literally play very little, but hey if you need a guy that can play "Horse with no Name" over and over and over again im your guy.

I'm in a band. We're called Grand Dynasty. We play acoustic folk rock. That link holds the untold treasures of two publicly-released-for-free songs, one of which is an okay demo version (Fern) and one of which is an almost-finished-except-for-recording-real-drums version (Weeds). Go listen to them.

But when I'm not playing in a band, I very slowly compose solo folk guitar music. None of that is yet recorded to a satisfactory level.

I play the Baritone Horn (treble clef), but sometimes I like to compose.

Here's a rendition of Still Alive for a trio of baritones.
Nyan Cat for Baritone!

This thread was definetely needed.
Piano/guitar/synthesizer-ist reporting in.

I play guitar, bass and (poorly) keys, and I'm in an amazing band that is incredibly cool and stuff

[Trapezohedron]

Not too skilled on the keyboard, but I play it. I also compose electronic music on FL Studio.

[Atomicdremora]

I love FL studio! I use FLS9 for composing at home sometimes.

I am beginner guitarist. Yesterday I tried to make my own backing track with Audacity. it was more of a tech test but it turned up okay so i decided to upload it.

Sorry for mistakes and horrible phrasing most of the time D:
i appreciate feedback!

[Robocorn]

I'm a half decent guitarist and a pretty awful keyboardist. I've never recorded anything though. I figure the world has enough bad melodeath songs about goblins and zombies.

[Trapezohedron]

Since some of you probably compose music via FL Studio, what are some nice VSTI's you've used?

Quite cool. "Still Alive" works surprisingly well like that, it seems.

 I used to play the euphonium back in high school days. I recently dug the thing out and gave it a go. The resulting sound was not pretty. If you enjoy playing an instrument, keep at it, is I guess the lesson there.

Aside from that, I can belt out a song or two. I took some voice classes in college, and was told that I had a "very impressive range, but terrible technique", which may have been the teacher's way of letting me down easy.
