  1. Wow

    XD that's fantastic. I wish Yu~ki would just play the bass. All this talk about J-Rock again makes me want to dig out Moon Child.
  2. Wow

    Those are some names I remember... :) lol. Pretty wild. So what's new at scape?
  3. Wow

    Just took a trip down memory lane. My last post here was what, 2007? I had all but forgotten about this place. Much has changed, though my affinity for J-Rock remains (though I hardly listen to it anymore). It's amazing what can happen in five years. I'm a very different person, mostly in...
  4. Learning Bass...

    Alright, here's my two cents. Best thing you can do? Get a teacher. Learning on your own is alright, if you've got someone to start you out. Yes, I know we're in Greene county, assuming you're the same Akako, but there are some bass teachers here - I mangaged to find a decent one...
  5. .

    XD I live about an hour away from that town.
  6. How to read ~Music~

    Kyuketsuki, I may be a little behind here, because I haven't been on scape in ages, but I do believe that a grand staff constitutes more than just a treble cleff. Grand staff= treble + bass clefs. Just thought I'd throw in my two cents. Also, I'd like to emphasize that there is only...
  7. Yngwie Malmsteen

    Yngwie is most definately an amazing guitarist, no question about that. He's got insanely good technique. Whether or not he's an ass doesn't always matter.. lol My biggest problem with him is that he doesn't put much emotion into his music. If you look at other virtuoso guitarists such as...
  8. Electronic musician wanted

    Sorry if this sounds egotistical or anything, but I really don't think anything techo/industrial is hard to write at all. Its repeating rythms with tracks lapped over each other. I just find it really repetitive. There's my two cents.
  9. Amazing Bassists

    Again, I'm definately gonna have to say Victor Wooten tops anyone I've seen in here so far. Though, I must add Jaco Pasturius isn't bad, and neither is Steve Bailey, Marcus Miller (like I said before), and Larry Graham. I agree, most J-rock bassists are nothing compared to these guys. And I...
  10. Amazing Bassists

    Alright, we all know how great Yu~ki was, but what about everyone else? Has anyone ever heard of Victor Wooten or Marcus Miller? If you're a bassist, you NEED to check them out. I would reccomend "Classical Thump" by Victor Wooten if you get the chance to. Seriously, these two are...
  11. Your Musical Projects

    Right now, I'm playing my upright bass in a community orchestra, acoustic guitar and bass in a band at my church, and bass guitar in two different bands at another church. I used to write music, but never found the time to finish what I started. For instance, I have an awesome arrangement of...
  12. J-Rock Christmas presents

    So, out of curiousity, am I the only one who bought J-rock Christmas presents for others? XD I got my brothers the Noesis single, Story single, and FFVII Advent Children soundtrack along with the MGS2 soundtrack. Not all J-rock, I know, but close enough. Anyone else?
  13. Gackt: DIABOLOS review

    I must say, it is quite an awesome album. After listening to ROAD and then L'arc~en~Ciel's "Stay Away", I realized that the chord progression is almost exactly the same.
  14. Do you play any instruments?

    Bass guitar [7] Alto/Tenor/Bari-Saxophone [6] Upright Bass [5] Voice [5] Guitar [6] Tuba [4] Piano [5] Bass guitar is probably my main instrument, since I've been taking it more seriously than the rest. I've been playing for about 3 years now. Yes, I'm a band geek as well. :P
  15. Favorite Final Fantasy

    I'm still a hardcore FFVIII fan. I love the characters, and of course the whole idea behind it. It was just a great game all around. FFVII was amazing as well. [OT] - I can't wait for ADVENT CHILDREN!!! :D I hope they remake FFVII for the ps2/ps3, or whatever. They made a trailor...
  16. mana and a violin

    He's not that great.... lol
  17. mana and a violin

    You musn't forget air drums.... (that's his second instrument) Seriously though, he'll be walking down the street listening to J-rock and randomly start violining. :D
  18. Favorite Final Fantasy

    *gasp* No Final Fantasy!? Heathens. I picked FF8, because of the amazing plot and wondeful music. I loved the whole game, and the whole concept of the gameplay was great.
  19. Favorite Final Fantasy

    For many the FF series is a common household item. Which is your favorite?
  20. What job do you have

    I'm a lifeguard. :lol: I also work during the school year by helping my mother with piano lessons. This year instead of $5 an hour, I'll be getting $7! (and that's without taxes!) Yay for my mom. Plus, this year I'll actually get to teach the piano part to some kids, instead of...
