Plug DJ Music Artist meetups

grtwhtgrvty · 07-02-2015, 12:27 AM

So I've noticed that there is a good number of musicians here and I was wondering if anyone was interested in this idea I had.

I have an idea that once a week or once every two weeks or something, maybe we could all meet up in a plug DJ room and take turns playing some of our music, giving feedback, constructive criticism, sharing ideas and production / composition methods, tips and tricks.

I was originally thinking that maybe the first date could be this Saturday but then I realized that Saturday is July 4th, so maybe we can shoot for

July 12th, Sunday at 4PM

Here's the link to the plug I'll be using https://plug.dj/grtwhts-chillzone

I don't plan on using MB's plug for a couple of reasons. First off, this isn't the only place where I'm advertising this. I plan on hitting up a few subreddits, telling someone of my friends, going to the /mu/ soundcloud thread and maybe the bandcamp thread too.

Also, I don't want to interfere with other people using the room. So this room isn't really directly related to Music Banter. I just figured it was good place to start promoting it. I want to be pretty relaxed when it comes to rules. The only big rule I can think of is that when meetups are in session, you can only play original music that you've made, whether it is remixes or covers or completely original work.

So yeah let me know if you're interested, if you plan on coming, if you want to come but can't because the time doesn't work for you, etc. Obviously anyone can come, even if they aren't necessarily a musician or if they don't have any work to show.

I'd be down, but I won't be there often seeing as I can only be on plug occasionally.

Mmk cool. I think I've gotten some people interested. i'm trying to get like... a diverse group of people because it's more fun that way.

I'll join if I'm free at that hour. It doesn't have to be a set thing, although that helps, you could declare a forum members music theme and announce it in the plug.dj thread. Me, Paul, Carpe, and a few other people did that theme once and it was a pretty good time.

Cool. I know a few other people who are coming so it won't be empty.

Why dont you make a room designated for the musicians from MB?
Then keep this thread so you can link it up like we always do for plugg?
