I don't get to pick what I tackle next, but the variety keeps things fresh.

I think post counts are only counted when a music-related post is made in one of the music threads. Posts in the lounge don't get counted.

I could be wrong but I recall someone mentioning something to that effect some years ago when a question about post counts came up for discussion.

BassoonPlatoon 04-12-2024 03:29 PM

Oh, good, glad I can make as many posts as I want here without it counting against me.

My day Is cool so far[hehe] how's yours?

BassoonPlatoon 04-29-2024 11:57 AM

My day is chugging along, as usual.

Ennorat 05-08-2024 12:20 PM

Great day!

BassoonPlatoon 05-13-2024 06:11 AM

Melancholy day.

BassoonPlatoon 05-22-2024 07:46 PM

I got back into Hell's Kitchen.

Norg 05-25-2024 11:49 PM

was my sisters birthday today

BassoonPlatoon 05-29-2024 02:35 PM

Today, was nothing special for me.

BassoonPlatoon 05-30-2024 07:20 PM

Yes, I made an account for both, but I don't really do anything with them.

BassoonPlatoon 06-05-2024 07:41 PM

Why lel?

Mucha na Dziko 06-22-2024 09:32 AM

After years and years I finally completed and released my first album

It wasn't today but a little over a week ago, but I still felt like sharing with you guys

On streaming platforms and Bandcamp and whatnot I'm no longer going by Mucha Na Dziko though, but by the name of "Bernard Milé" though

BassoonPlatoon 06-26-2024 07:52 AM

I learned that a good first step in anything is to define exactly how and what it is and the way you are going to do it. It's how I have approached games for a long time now, but I never considered applying it to my goals in life before.

Norg 07-02-2024 12:43 AM

anyone still here this place dead dead :P

BassoonPlatoon 07-04-2024 06:15 PM

Yeah people just randomly stopped posting for some reason.

Why did they do that?

mattrixs 07-17-2024 07:49 PM

Its nice seeing some of the journals.......

BassoonPlatoon 07-18-2024 08:45 AM

It would be nice to get back to some of the dreams and projects I have left behind.

BassoonPlatoon 07-20-2024 07:57 PM

Nothing in particular really comes to mind right now. I'd like to learn an instrument, though.

BassoonPlatoon 07-21-2024 06:24 PM

Nah, but I do have this app called GarageBand that's basically a keyboard? I've always wondered how people practice without annoying others?

Interesting. You mean composing? No, I never thought about doing that. Is it easier to break into than playing?

Composing is easier to do than playing well, but also develops your playing – because you want the song to sound good

Well how would you get started on composing?

BassoonPlatoon 09-20-2024 05:55 PM

I don't even like true crime, but, for some reason, so many of the communities I am involved in do.

Me, a Canadian, conveying my sense of gratitude, relief and jubilation over the latest developments in the Middle East.

Nothing particularly witty or interesting, I just like using Trudeau as a reaction image cause he's a funny fuсk...

The reaction image I need for today is "being annoyed that your chick is nagging you about printing out the documents you need for tomorrow's meeting with the immigration lawyer but knowing that she's right"...

jadis 09-30-2024 04:09 AM

Maybe some combination of these

Learn the two basic shapes of chords on a piano (minor and major triads). Then move those shapes around the keyboard and look for combination that you like.

When you have 4-8 chords in a pattern, try recording and looping them.

This will be the basis for your composition. With this in place, you can experiment either with other virtual instruments to improvise a melody, use a beat machine to make a drum pattern underneath, etc etc.

A good way of inventing melodies would be singing them first.

BassoonPlatoon 12-17-2024 05:49 PM

Are minor triads and minor chords interchangeable?

Stabty 03-29-2025 02:17 PM

It was a great day! Spent it with family :)

Yes! Of course

A minor chord IS a minor triad, just like a major chord IS a major triad.

There are 4 basic chord types:

Major — consisting of a minor 3rd stacked on top of a major one

for example: a C major chord is constructed with the notes C - E - G. From C to E you have a major 3rd, from E to G you have a minor 3rd

Minor — consisting of a major 3rd stacked on top of a minor one

for example: a C minor chord is constructed with the notes C - D# - G. From C to D# you have a minor 3rd, from D# to G you have a major 3rd

Augmented — consisting of two major 3rds stacked on each other

for example: a C Augmented chord is constructed with the notes C - E - G#. From C to E you have a major 3rd, from E to G# you have another major 3rd

Diminished — consisting of two minor 3rds stacked on each other

for example: a C Diminished chord is constructed with the notes C - D# - F#. From C to D# you have a minor 3rd, from D# to F# you have another minor 3rd


All other chords (like minor 7th, major 7th, etc) are just stacking more minor/major triads on top of the four types I explained above.

The difference are "suspended" chords, where you don't use the first minor/major 3rd that gives a chord it's minor/major flavour, but instead you substitute it with some other note of your choice. They are then designated as for instance "Csus4" — meaning that the major/minor 3rd is substituted with the 4th, which in the case of the C scale would be the note F.
So the notes in a basic Csus4 chord would be C - F - G


This might seem confusing if you're reading this without a keyboard under your fingers. But as soon as you sit down and actually play the chords I explained here, it will be very clear — you usually just move one finger one key up or down.

In fact, I really like to live by a certain routine, so my day is always as similar as possible to the previous one. But I like it that way, although I always try to make my weekends active and different.
