Music discussion is very lacking here for. Compared to reddit. And yeah I know, 'just post then'. But when I search for music communities here they're empty. And it makes sense because no-one is posting. So kind of a catch 22.

now i dont exactly know how all this lemmy stuff works but... to all you musos out there, can you join me and search for music under communities (I'm using summit app) and just at a minimum subscribe to all the ones that you would be interested in(if they were popping off)?

At least that way when one of us posts, the rest of us will actually see it (I suspect).

Anyway. Keep making the world more fun for everyone else.

P.s if your not a musician, but you like golf or something, subscribe to the golf communities even if they're empty.

So long as you don't mean professional musician, I guess I count. I'm a decent guitarist and a reasonably competent bassist (the skills are transferrable, but they are not the same if you want to do anything interesting on bass) who does a bit of blues, rock, and metal. I've done a little bit of music production, essentially just enough to put together recordings with programmed drums at home and have them not be completely awful. I'm also working, very slowly, on learning piano and would like to learn violin, but life has gotten in the way lately and made that difficult

Do you have any recorded music uploaded on bandcamp or similar? If not, you should!

I recorded and released a couple of EPs with a band once, but they were only released physically. I have also recorded a couple of metal versions of tracks from the Outer Wilds soundtrack. They're a bit rough because they were very much the process of me actively learning how to do these things, but I'm still pretty pleased with them

I am trying to record some proper music of my own, but sadly my health nosedived and I've struggled to be productive on much at all. Still, the effort continues! However long it takes me, it will be done one day
