What type of music do you create?

[AnX]

Coldplay is in that area of bands I have aggressively ignored and I couldn't name one of their songs without a Google search. Radiohead I don't like in the least.

are we twins

okay, maybe modular folks should not be singled out, but look at the poll result. only 3 percent create vocal-based music. that 3 percent may not even be all pop music wannabes.

and could you be more "instrumental music" than modular folks?

obvious conclusion: kvr is not a pop songwriter's site. and therefore pop music is abnormal (even hated) here since pop music is almost always 100 percent vocal-based?

but kvr is a gigglefest, full of interesting people and there are no better alternative sites?

only 3 percent create vocal-based music.

13%, from a poll that currently stands at 26 respondents. Possibly a little margin for error?

ooopps. oh yes 13 percent instead of 3 percent.
but isn't the music cafe a good indicator?
you and wagtunes? and that's it?

Well, just off the top of my head without looking to remind myself, regulars posting songs rather than instrumentals also include;

sjm
Frantz
an-electric-heart
aaron aardvark
thjonsolo

..and I'm sure many more - not been that active recently due to other bizzle going on.

and the karma_TBA guy. what percentage is that now. approximately?

[harryupbabble]

wagtunes is mostly pop music?
karma_tba too?
you dabble in pop?
not sure about Franz and the others

[harryupbabble]

time slot expired. gotta go . adios don t.

I'm seeing nine out of twenty-four who include vocal music in their output, not three. 37.5%.

Me? No voice, can't sing any longer. No loss.

I probably sing a lot more when not recording, so my occasional music posts aren’t representative of what I just sit down and play most days.

Not a good conclusion at all. Just because I don't make music with vocals doesn't mean I hate music with vocals. It means I really suck at singing and writing lyrics.

I once did a cover of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" with vocals. It was horrible. Crimes against humanity sort of horrible.

I like a whole bunch of types of music that I don't make. Industrial, EBM, Scandanavian folk, Celtic folk, Middle Eastern bellydance (particularly American Tribal Style fusion stuff), Viking symphonic metal, Gothic rock, chiptunes, glitch, synthpop, powernoise, occasional baroque stuff, whatever Amon Tobin is, electro swing, darkwave and ethereal wave, some movie scores, some jazz, some pop, etc. I used to try to blend several of those influences into something else, but I learned some restraint. I know some of it influences the music I make now and some of it doesn't much.

you dabble in pop?

Just a little..

[harryupbabble]

okay i'm just curious,
the people that hate coldplay's music,
could you at least explain why?
i don't understand.

so like which coldplay song did you hear and said to yourself "damn, i hate that song so much, eww, i'm a gonna puke". or something like that?

was it this one?

[harryupbabble]

this one does nothing for insomnia too.
