I just took up bass and slide guitar! (The former doesn’t seem too difficult but I’ve only tried basic stuff so far, the latter is really hard to get used to but I’ve been playing so much my hand feels weird without a slide.) I already play guitar and I’ve started playing both ukulele and mandolin in the past couple of months. I think I might be addicted to musical instruments…maybe…ever so slightly.

I love writing music, and right now I’m trying to write the soundtrack to my NaNoWriMo novel (which I turned to a movie script)
It’s going pretty good, the only problem that I’ve encountered is that I don’t have an actual orchestra to experiment with…but, yeah, that’s what I’m doing. :D

Composing is pure fun. I was working on a musical based on my favorite book, but the music manuscript book I used got damaged in a flood and it was horrible. So far I’ve composed a couple of songs, but my lack of piano skills makes it difficult. @Minty I have the same problem with experimenting with an orchestra too. I can’t seem to find one.

So I’ve been working on some songs recently and finished some of them up at the end of last year and I’d love to get some opinions and things on them? If you guys don’t mind? I’m considering maybe making some music videos for them maybe at a later date but I want to make sure they sound right before I jump into that :)

They’re over at http://www.reverbnation.com/leefarnell

I would love you guys to have a listen! :)

My YouTube Channel is an ongoing songwriting project in which I click ‘Random Article’ on Wikipedia and write a song about whatever comes up. That’s over at http://www.youtube.com/WikiRiffs if you want to check it out!

Aside from that I write other songs in my spare time, and I’m currently working on a couple of parody songs combining 80s music with DC comics themes. The first one of those – a Superman-related version of Duran Duran’s “Notorious” – is almost finished.

I play bass in a band called Beards & Broads out of Northern California. You guys should check us out, because I think that the denizens of Nerdfighteria might like our music, and we need more likes on our Facebook page. We have recordings under the “Band Profile” tab.

@minty Good luck composing a whole soundtrack! Is there anywhere I can read your nanowrimo online? :)

@anneeeclaire Start your own! Put an ad in the local newspaper or soemthing and gather people up! Hire a place to practise and get going! Might wanna get someone to help you though because organizing an orchestra can’t eb the easiest thing hahaah

I do composing on piano mostly but I play loads of other instruments that I incorporate into my music. I’m inspired by Yann Tiersen a lot and a Swedish band called Detktivbyran. :D

Well I started awhile ago a song that was dedicated to Nerdfighteria and I compose it based on what I imagine nerdfighteria would be like. It is slowly becoming a fail though.
