Woah it really makes me feel great to hear there are people involved in music in any way
). I played Guitar for 5 years in a child ochestra,but i managed to break all my 10 fingers and was experiencing dexterity issues for more than decade after,so i never go back to it,but i am enchanted by the art to this very day... I am very well educated in guitar classics and i have huge respect to all the OG guitar players from all genres
.. My favorites are psychedelic rock and stoner doom,the best riffs are there IMO,but there are also gems elsewhere.. I really dig the energy on this grandpa

At one point of my youth i was very much into what very few people will describe as music - goregrind and death metal,even fronted on a local band doing pig squeels ,pogos and stage divings ,lol.. That is some crazy crowd that comes to this events,they are just too much for me nowadays,if i do i watch only from the sidelines
I always beeing a kink for the weird . I use to purchase a lot of undergound music which gets printed in just a few copies .. It was a think for some death grind bands to release their albums into 666 copies ..
I also have a collection of S.P.White albums who is an ambient noise artist,there is one track where he had a mic stuck into an anthill ,while at the same time he was playing slow, dark melody on a piano. The feeling was amazing... I was getting pleasure knowing that i am one of the very few that will ever listen to this.. (internet wasnt still that popular),even if people had access to it like they do now,very few of them would appreciate this art. I also have great appreciation even to this day for Stejin van Cauter- drone doom pioneer ,he is the real life darth vader, he so many projects and while being a big name and pioneer in the scene,his art will remain obscured and unappreciated by the masses till the end of time

It is crazy how i came to also appreciate the more "mainstream" stuff like funk,jazz(<3 Alice Coltrane) ,hip-hop,drum n bass and some other electronic genres at a later phase ,since i was such a die hard fan of the underground..maybe when the people moved away from them,they became of interest,lol.. I've always felt distant and isolated from the regular people ,maybe there is freudian logic behind it,and thats why i look to "join" forces with the handful i considere alike..
).. I feel like a true musical chimera,It is weird having such a broad taste for music and i feel that i still dont like 99% of what is out there now..
@The Stray Fox That is a really cool pedal board
) You have shown some serious dedication that is for sure. Curious if you have any recordings,anything you wrote/composed ?
Anyone familar with the Therminvox ,i always wanted to learn to play one,maybe it is no too late.
stopped producing music once the program crashed. Made a bunch stuff though,learned alot. So much more to learn. So many ways to grow musically.
