I predict this will be quite tame compared to the rest of this thread but here you go anyway:

Our scene opens on a person with a bass guitar, practicing some sick slap bass perched upon an IKEA office chair. The player is lost in the zone, all mental facilities put to work making every strike with the thumb is accurate and powerful, and every pop of the fingers sends the strings into the fretboard with a gorgeous thwack! The sound is heavenly, a deep, rich, cutting tone- full of appropriate levels of CLANK and SNAP. The short riff being performed to a concert of no-one reaches its magnificent height, a slammingly heavy riff sounding like a funky machine gun, the bassists hands become a blur, the strings vibrate with precision and power, a glorious cacophony of ma-

kkrrmp.

Oh crap, I broke a string

My mixing studio monitors, I haven’t properly gotten into mixing yet.

WE FIGHT FOR ROCK AND STONE!

I work at a McDonald’s and the managers let people take stuff at close, either way it’s just gonna go into the bin

Living in Kerala is rough dunno about the other places tho

I would have never thought that NIN could be calming, to me some NIN stuff feels like I’ve got blood poisoning or something haha

Dude that’s sick! Out of curiosity do you also play any instruments? I’m neurotypical but learning bass aswell as trumpet really made a bunch of theory stuff click for me

(Feel free to ignore this if it doesn’t work ADHD wise) Also a quick note on composition- if you hear something in a song and go “oh that’s a good idea” totally steal it, or a bit of it and repurpose it for your own songs. The best songs I’ve ever written were a bunch of cool bits from different songs and my own ideas. For example on a piece I’m just finishing I stole the chord progression from a j rock song I like (changed it a bit to make it better) and I stole a bunch of chord structures from a guitar solo, and stole a bit of the drum pattern for a bunch of different songs all mashed together. Robbery is cool

I’m a neurotypical musican and this has got to be the most interesting thing I’ve heard all day. Out of curiosity, if the BPM and pace of the track is still high but the song has really soothing instruments (soft trumpets, harp, kalimba type stuff) or really harsh instruments (distorted guitars mixed with chainsaws), would the music still be soothing? I’m curious if their is a relation between the sound and calmness aswell as speed

Fuck yeah it does!

Personally the point to life for me is to find something I love and add to that space. I love music, so my purpose in life is to make music, be that playing live or mixing and mastering or composing songs or recording stuff. It’s something I dream about, even though I already do some of these things.

But I’m just one guy. My personal subcribed to philosophy is absurdism. Nothing has meaning unless I give it meaning, so fuck you Im going to eat a pineapple with chopsticks.

The point to life is whatever you want it to be. If you need help finding that I would try tap into what you would love to create or what you would like to achieve.

I live in the UK and your memories are more British than mine lol

Probably play the trumpet or play the bass guitar, I’m a giga musican nerd

I don’t got ADHD so I’m good on that front, I just don’t wanna buy more picks

Always remember where I put stuff man

I don’t want to lose another guitar pick lol

Precisely

Yeah, you just need a patch cable into a split coil humbucking electric bass guitar and a degree in aerospace engineering, pretty simple actually

Maybe it is, but that shit really helps me

That’s kinda cute lol, hope your doing far better now

This is extra funny because I’m Scottish 💀
