my proudest moment was being on Winterchip!

bookmarking ant1's bandcamp was a good thing to do
ilkae said he really liked n0de-claw and some people paid money for it

i refused a gig offer i suppose, that felt pretty amazing

n0de-claw absolutely ruled mate. Loooooved that release!!

Do you believe that anyone who has ever sung, programmed, or otherwise elicited a note from an instrument is a musician? Or does it take more zan zat?

Maybe you're not a musician until you've made your first dollar by selling your recordings, or until you've played live in front of someone? Maybe you can have done both of zose and still not be considered a musician by some...

Do you need to have read up on theory? Do you need to have learned to read music? (I know zat'd eliminate me...)

Is rap music?[/strikethrough

I feel like what defines a musician is ze ability to imagine a phrase of music and zen play or sequence it, but I wrestle with my own definition since many more based in theory are utterly dependant on the page and the conductor, and they might have entirely different takes on it which disqualify me. so let's hear yours.

i never really get "writer's block" because i never feel the compulsion to write something without also having pretty specific ideas of what to write. if i'm working on something, it's because i already have ideas. if i don't have any ideas, then i can go weeks without writing something and feel totally fine about it.

it seems like some people feel this compulsion like "i have to write something NOW" even when they have no ideas. that feeling seems weird to me and i cant really relate to it. what so wrong with just not writing anything for a while?

zis, with ze exception zat you can generate ideas very easily by letting your fingers take over, whether on an instrument or on a pc keyboard fulla crumbz. no need to let ideas occur to you when you can remind yourself what ideas sound like just through plain unconscious play.
