Can you post your bands music page?

Asked by auhsojsa (2516points) January 21st, 2012

I know some people of Fluther have music but it’s too hard to look through everyones profile. Can you just post a link to your music?

Ahhhhhh. I do have a band.
But we only have one video, and the sound quality is terrible, because we don’t have good recording equipment. And it was really just for fun. XD
So… I’m nervous about posting it because my singing sounds terrible, even though it’s really not. Haha. But if you promise not to laugh, I might give it to you… >.<

@AshLeigh Do it. That would be epic.

marinelife's avatar

On your profile you could.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe, I don’t see how it would be epic at all… But.. here it is…
Please keep in mind that we have bad equipment, this was just for fun, and I really am a good singer, even though this video points to the contrary.
And don’t laugh. I’ll cry. Haha. >.<

@AshLeigh Sorry, dear, keep your day job.

@AshLeigh I was just giving you a little crap. I know you hate the word epic. Let me listen to your music after Your Decision finishes.

@AshLeigh I’m sorry, AshLeigh. I did not mean to be mean. I am glad that you enjoy making music. Keep it up. But I don’t see a career in it for you, which I was just being honest about. I did not deliberately want to hurt your feelings.

@AshLeigh The quality of that recording is so poor it’s hard to get a good read on your music, but you do remind of someone successful, but I can’t think of their name. I think you definately have potential.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe thank you.
I know the quality is bad, but it’s not like we have a real recording studio. XD

@AshLeigh I impressed that you have fuel and running water in Alaska. :)

@AshLeigh Your voice really reminds me of someone. She does light pop. Has anyone mentioned that?

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@AshLeigh I can’t place the artist you sound like. It’s going to drive me nuts but I’ll figure it out.

Oh, dear, @AshLeigh , that really is a very poor quality recording. Are you sure that that is the video you want to be promoting on the internet where everyone can see and judge it?

AshLeigh's avatar

@JilltheTooth, I clearly stated that the quality is bad, and I know it. It’s all I have. So…

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@JilltheTooth I kind of goaded her into it. The sound is bad but listen to her voice.

JilltheTooth's avatar

Yes you did, @AshLeigh . My point is, that if you are trying to promote your band, this is not the best way to do it. If people see this and their first impression of you is this video, they might not want to come back for a second look. I’m sorry if your feelings get hurt by this, that is not my intention, I’m just calling it as I see it. I would wait to promote until you have a better recording that really showcases your talents. This thread has the potential to reach a number of people and the reality is not everyone will give it a second listen if they didn’t like it the first time.

AshLeigh's avatar

Except I’m not trying to promote my band. They asked for a link, and I gave them a link.

Edit: When you post in public, you will get a public reaction. If you don’t want a response from all, then PM the Jellies who ask. I thought you put it out there for public consumption.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

Whoa Jill easy.

My initial reaction (as previously stated somewhere.. don’t remember where) is that its a combination of Evanescence and Bif Naked . Hard to tell with such a low quality video though.

Oh.. I’m supposed to post a video too eh? So sad, nothing online or recorded. Guess it will have to be a live experience.

@AshLeigh Take that video off the internet. I want to see you grow as a musician but that particular song has no flow. The melody doesn’t follow anything. There’s no hook. The guitars are stuck on dissonant notes while you are singing is not dissonant. You should ditch your band and find someone who plays acoustic guitar. Stick to the basics. Someone who can play, G, C, Am, D you’ll be fine. The composing of that song was horrible. Your voice isn’t horrible however which is why I think you need to ditch the band.

AshLeigh's avatar

@auhsojsa, I appreciate your tips, but I love my band members, and we will all grow together. It was only our second practice, and that was just for fun.
Also, I can’t take that video down, because I didn’t put it up. :P

I was only a high school band nerd, but my husband and I do have some friends who have a band. They joined this site a while back but haven’t been around in a long time. I take any chance to promote their music. Here’s their stuff: The Aposematics

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@jonsblond Holy shit that’s nice. Crisp clean and well done all around. Nice

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@AshLeigh If that’s only your second practice I’m impressed.

AshLeigh's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe, it was… Thanks. >.<

jonsblond's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe They are really good musicians. and really nice people too =) They were featured in Rolling Stone a couple years ago. I can’t find it at the moment, but I did find this blog that mentions it.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@jonsblond They’re amazing. The Bridge is Out is beautiful. The blog compares them to Hinder, Staind and some other good groups. Nice.
