Long Absence, I'm back!

   Hello, boys and girls of the internetz!!!
   I know it's been a long time, and I missed you too but summer was upon me and I had to take a break for the sake of staying sane. We all know that the summer holidays here in England are shorter than in the rest of Europe so spending the little I was given on anything PC-related would have turned me into a depressed-zombie-with-personality-issues. Or at least increase the level of depressed-zombie-with-personality-issues-ness that I have already reached.
  I must add that i haven't found a band yet. Who knows...maybe I'm destined to be a lone shredder, going from band to band playing a few songs and then hunting some ninja turtles.
  Anyways on another note, I'm happy I actually got to experience ... Life while I was in SH*. I did literally everything EVERYTHING from a to z you name it, I'll write about all of it when im less tired =))!!!
And I'm happy to say I'm happy right now...Although the thought that there's going to be another full year before I'll be able to go through this again since socializing went quite poorly for me in England...*sight* lets just say it kills it.
  Anyway I have posted a new Jam video on Youtube and I'm planning to start recording my other songs once I get some decent recording gear.
   Don't forget to follow and comment!

How to write a song.


One way to do it is to close your eyes think real hard about who or what you are writing the song about.
Is it going to be a sad or dark song? Then take a look at this (minor scales).
Is it going to be a happy, light hearted song? Then think about writing it in a major scale.

Now I'm assuming that you aren't interested in a full-on music theory lesson so I'm going to put it like this:
First think about a tune. Doesn't matter if it's already taken by someone in a song. Now, think about adjectives that describe your song's subject.
Try and fit that tune into a scale. You can always use adjacent or complementary notes if it doesn't exactly fit into  it...and if it really can't be changed start playing with the tune until you get something that sounds okay, the best way to do it is to use metamorphosis, (meaning you just change it one note at a time ) 
If you play an instrument you might wanna think about adding some pentatonic licks to your composition. And why not go even further? Develop your song by learning the diatonic scales and modes nothing easier, as there are only seven of them :
Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and the dreaded Locrian.

Now that you have the modes covered why not go even further than even further learn all about cadences and  how to use them in different contexts, enter the wonderful world of enharmonic relations and develop your music vocabulary by learning the chinese, Indian, Arabic,Romanian,Hungarian,Bulgarian,Slavic,Islamic and African(aka pentatonic minor) scales!!!
All in all this shouldn't take you more than 9-12 months to learn!
If this is too complicated for you than read through our next method:  

Learn four first position chords preferably major, do not make the mistake of leaning a 7th chord.You will never use it
Come out with some lyrics about 
a) Getting drunk and partying
b) Impossible love 
c) Impossible drunkness
d) Loving someone but not being able to confess because you are too drunk
e) Learning the Alphabet
Now mix the shit out of those 4 chords you learnt until you find a good combo.Don't bother about the rhythm...make it as basic as you can 

Either way you do it you can now enjoy a very successful musical career. 


If you followed the 2nd method then expect to get a massive amount of fans and money!!!!

I hope this helped.

Strange as hell.Essex girls

 I went to that party I was telling you about on Friday... It wasn't the kind of party you would normally expect from England...at least not the kind that I was expecting when I was invited. But it was a really really nice party.
  The most interesting thing about it was a group of seven or so girls ( Yes...like many "foreigners" I am not used to talking to English people let alone girls),who kept on hitting on me and my friend Alfie (English born/Aussie state of mind)...which was pretty awkward as the party was really very ...childish. And me and Alfie were clearly older than most of the children there. They said that they really liked us ( the word they used was "fancy"...i'm still learning what exactly that means...also there is a word- "peng"- wth is that????comment if u know) So yeah...they gave us their numbers ( which we pretended to save as they looked like the kind of girl u wouldn't wanna know) and said that we should hang around...
   My feelings towards this were these:
1.I was somewhat flattered
2.I was disgusted by how easy the go
3.I was afraid that they would turn into zombies and eat our brains.
4.Just...baffled by their..."slut-iness"
   But we decided to just wait and see what happens without actually doing anything.Eventually they asked for my name ...asked for theirs without actually be interested. then my age...15...they didn't believe...and that was about it...me and alfie were both treated as pedos from there on ...we laughed...a lot, made fun of them and that it...I wouldn't have talked to them anyway ...these horrible beings of a naive nature...these DUM DUM DUM!!!!!

What is Irony?

   It's a question that I usually get from small children or non English-Speakers from Romania...in which case my answer is "Irony is when life gives you lemons, you sell them, become a millionaire and 10 years later you die because you weren't paying attention to the lemon-carrying truck." I'm usually told that the example could have been avoided or improved. But my point is usually proven.
   Sometimes Irony is a pain in the backside...but as hard as it is for some people to appreciate it, it's one of the greatest spices of life. One of those things that underline the fact that life is supposed to be lived at its best and not 'thrown' away with idiotic past-times. But we still throw it away...and this is Irony in a nutshell.
What a freaking mindf--k.
              
                         What's your definition of Irony?
