Thank you!really really nice. I've been trying to teach myself with the little i held on to from my 6yo lessons as a kid. Still cant coordinate two hands at the same time lol love it![]()
It's a matter of figuring how how to make your vocals cool, nvm mind "good singing" (though it never hurts). It's more important that vocals are charismatic.I've been singing for a long time and haven't gotten much bettersome songs I nail, other songs it's more like nails on a chalkboard.
It's interesting how the etymology of the term "Gypsy" comes from "Egyptian". We should probably note: the word Gypsy is now sometimes considered derogatory or offensive, and has been replaced in many official contexts by "Romani" or "Roma", though it remains the most widely used term for members of this community among English speakers. But besides that, I don't think Phrygian Dominant is the traditional Egyptian scale. I believe it's a pentatonic scale that runs along the same notes as Dorian, less two. In the key of C, the Egyptian scale goes C, D, F, G, B♭. It's not as exotic sounding as the Klezmer@unodelacosa yeah gypsy jazz is an apt description. Usually I'm a guitar player (19 years) only started playing keyboard seriously maybe 4-5 years ago. Coincidentally, the Greek people known as the Lydians lived in Anatolia (modern day Turkey), and Phrygian Dominant is of course the most "Egyptian" sounding mode. So a piece of music that combines tonality from the two regions is very "gypsy" in a meta way haha. And yeah, then those passing chromatic notes. Was definitely channeling some gypsy.
The modes were named after towns in Greece where certain modes were associated to specific towns, only it was done incorrectly back in the 16th century in an effort to be accessible and available to Gregorian chanting monks. That mislabelling persisted through the dawn of western classic music which of course influences the understanding of modern western music theory.Speaking of, I've been meaning to look up why the modes are all named after specific Greek tribes. Might help me finally remember which name goes to which mode without having to look up and remind myself haha. I have some of them memorized but not all.

Possibly relevant and/or an excuse to use MDMA (as if you needed one) ☞ New Zealand Researchers to Study ‘Ecstasy’ Drug for Tinnitus TreatmentBut music just isn't the same ever since tinnitus.
Perhaps lower your expectations a bit? Having a degree is oftentimes more ostentatious than useful. "Grin and bear it" is almost always the name of the game there…but it makes getting a backup degree so much more isolating an experience if you can't even have a proper online human connection about what you're filling your day with.
I've written a multi-page thread about it somewhere here on PD. Nobody cared about all the details
Yeah I can believe it. It's not my favorite drug and not a drug I'm interested in doing alone. I like to do it with an entourage of people all rolling; it's can be a lot of fun like that. The next day is some shit though, but ya gotta take the good with the bad sometimes…but serotonergics are generally awful for a broken inner ear. Yes, plenty of substances that render one complacent towards torture, but psychological fixes that worsen the physiological aspects.. that's a positive feedback situation one might want to avoid, at least with certain mental and tinnitus-etiological variables. And I don't like MDMA anyway, believe it or not!
I'm not doling out advice here; please note I said "perhaps". And I'm sorry, I know this is cynical of me, but me personally? I'm not at all surprised by the frustrating lack of human pulse you might discover in the academic-industrial complex.Would you generally advise lowering expectations to people not receiving the services they pay for?
I was kind of just joking. Lighten up a little, manDoesn't make sense to me. Yes, I do have you wonderful people, but it is a drug forum.
I wonder why…Being here always makes me think drugs.
I don't know. When I run so hard that I go mental, the rage carries over into the rest of the day.
Can't deny the biophysical perks, but at the same time it's clearly no panacea.
That’s because you need to work out. Just do it, and contemplate it later. For now, exercise your assigned primate homo sapiens sapiens.I haven't been sleeping well lately.
