Any musicians?

[Taniwha]

Are there any musicians on here? Poll included.

I play the drums, here's some of my drumming that I did for a mate (who play's piano) I'm a bit rusty as I haven't played for over a year. I'm playing on an old crappy electric kit that I stole from church.

YouTube - Terminator 2 Main Theme on piano (T-1000 sub special) with H0tkebab on drums

 

[Holy shit this makes sens]

Yea!! I teach drums, keyboard, bass, guitar (electric and acoustic) acoustic i'm better at. um piano and a whole bunch of misc instruments. And music theory
And composing is the shit.

Their are no rules in music simply what sounds good. and that even varies.

Drumming sounds good, and really holds up the feel of the music in stead of just being the rhythm.

 

[Sosekopp]

I play piano, guitar and bass. And I write songs, sometimes.

 

[Philosophyking87]

Stringed or keyboard.

 

[Puffy]

Bass guitar/ alto sax. I've written a few things my friends quite like but I don't think I'd go anywhere with it.

 

[TylerRDA]

Trumpet
Drums
Guitar
Bass
Music Theory

I play drums in a band and write a good deal of the guitar and bass parts; I enjoy thinking about guitar more than actually working hard to play well. I included music theory because it translates into any instrument I pick up. Gimme two hours with the instrument of your choice and I'll play you Autumn Leaves or any scale you like
I can't write lyrics to save my life (they are reminiscent of Rush- the early days)

 

[gruesomebrat]

I was going to point out that there's an option missing on the poll, but then realized you're only looking for musicians, not those who want nothing to do with music...

Occasionally, I play a little bit of piano. I almost exclusively play improvisations though, so I'm not sure that really counts. Always tended more towards math than music, even though I'm consistently told that there are similarities between the two... personally? I don't see any.

 

[Nocturne]

I mainly entertain myself with the piano, but it is too bad it cannot be transported easily. (Yes, I know you can buy a keyboard, but it isn't exactly the same thing...)

 

[dark]

I play guitar and sing. I have taken the time to learn the bass back in high school since I played it in the school band, also dabbled with the drums but I don't touch either much now days.

Also have a harmonica set I like and a tambourine.

 

[Meer]

I make stupid computer music. But I wouldn't call myself a musician.

 

[nim]

Would not a piano technically be both a string and a percussion, as well as a keyboard, instrument?

 

[Firehazard159]

Euphonium, Violin, Bass Guitar, Vocals, a tiny bit of harmonica and I mess around with music production software on my phone and computer, though not much comes of that (yet?).

 

[Wish]

I enjoy playing piano for myself, though not too well, and to a lesser extent guitar. I used to play trumpet but have fallen off quite a bit.

Sometimes I will try to make music on my computer with my keyboard and/or guitar and/or field recordings, but recently I have fallen off of that too.

Spoiler

I've decided to upload a few things here.

 

[Devious]

I play a wind instrument, the trumpet. I'm also currently taking guitar lessons... though I wouldn't call myself a musician yet. I occasionally play the keyboard but only in a superficial level.

 

[ElvenVeil]

I just play piano for myself once in a while.. I don't enjoy playing for others, but I love playing when I am alone

 

[a detached retina]

Piano, loves improvising, hates practicing. really hates playing other peoples' work, good rhythm, shitty ear.

 

[persuedsmile612]

I play the guitar. Singer/songwriter. I NEED a piano.

 

[PennyRoyalty]

I play guitar, though not amazingly well or anything.


I also rap.

 

[PapyrusAirplanes]

Piano, voice, guitar, marimba, French horn.

 

[musing]

I play the acoustic guitar (am saving for a nice electric guitar) and the piano, writing a lot of pieces on both instruments, usually in the classical style but occasionally in the modern 4 minute sound-byte style designed for short attention spans (verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus).

 

[Peeps999]

I've played electric guitar for 7 years and the double bass for 4 years.

 

[xbox]

I play the piano, AND WOULD LOVE TO LEARN GUITAR

 

[pjoa09]

I do improv with the guitar.

It is sort of blues sort of jazz sort of i-dunno-wtf. sure helps venting.

 

[Oedipus]

I do not possess an ounce of musical talent, and because my school is also one of the foremost music schools in the country I'm surrounded by amazing musicians all week. Makes me feel a little inferior

 

[Siloc]

I play guitar and piano, and do a bit of singing as of late. Here is a video of my band the Good, the Loud, & the Angry:

[Late2theParty]

I play guitar, dabble in bass / keyboards / drums and vox. I like writing songs and music composition in general.

 

[Jean Paul]

Aspiring Pianist

 

[thelithiumcat]

I play clarinet, drums and saxophone mainly but I've played instruments for almost as long as I can remember so I have basic talents in most instruments. Others I've played include the recorder, the ukulele, the bass guitar and the piano. I can also sing decently.

 

[snafupants]

I play guitar, though not amazingly well or anything.


I also rap.

Doesn't everyone rap? That's the sort of thing you do in the shower bar schoolyard plane waiting room etc. Anyway, I play the guitar and piano. The guitar I can actually improvise with but with the piano I have to sort of follow a script because I'm not good enough yet basically.

 

[Paranoid Android]

Violin, piano and singing.

 

[Peeps999]

Music is about to get more interesting for me since I've finally got a new band started with lots of dedicated musicians. Hopefully this ends up being as amazing as we can be because our lead guitar player and keyboard/bassist are like gods on there instruments for there age. I will definitely post originals whenever we get around to writing these things because I know all of your lives practically revolve around my music..

 

[NRS]

I play guitar, with a rather inexperienced but budding fingerstyle, as well as a tiny bit of piano.

AND, I have now entered the wonderful world of the accordion.

 

[hitode-kun]

I play remarkably bad piano and have always wanted to learn strings.

The sound of my singing is akin to that of a cat being skinned alive. It's quite amazing, really. If you have glass that needs to be shattered, then…

 

[Midas]

Piano, trumpet, french horn and vocal

(although saying i do vocal may be stretching it )
With piano taking 2/3 of my life at 10 years [16]

 

[Hammo]

Lot's of string instruments... just like Einstein and Holmes, two figures that frequently appear as examples on INTP profiles.
I play piano (but am not nearly as good as I should like), and have dabbled in harmonica, guitar, violin.

 

[Iamnotbutter]

Vocal- soprano
I was in choir for 8 (longgg) years ^.^

Vesna Children's Choir -- Aglepta - YouTube

a really cool piece my choir did one year

 

[eagor]

i actually play the drums harmonica and banjo, if i learn how to sing i could be a one man band

 

[Ermine]

I play electric and acoustic guitar, piano, cello, and I can sing alto/soprano decently (it's clear and in tune). I also know a good amount of music theory and can read music pretty well. Now just need to work on songwriting.

 

[Cavallier]

^I know this is untoward and all that but...*GLOMP!* Oh, how I have missed you!

 

[~~~]

A fair bit of formal training but I cannot play a thing.

 

[keekins]

I play bass guitar in a band, I've taken guitar for a couple years, I took piano for a good 9 years (and hated it for 5 out of the 9). I know a few scales and songs on saxophone, and I know a few chords on banjo.

I'm teaching myself mandolin and string bass, and I have a drum set that isn't set up yet because we have a dumb air hockey table in the way...

 

[Architect]

Yes, professional level classical musician when I was younger, but I left for greener pastures before making the final professional step.

 

[GYX_Kid]

Actually got some formal training for guitar, drums and vocals, but picked up a lot more from just doing it on my own

 

[snafupants]

I am proficient at the trouser flute.

 

[SandMizzle]

Puh... Ok! I've had my own grunge band in which i did the songwriting, vocals, guitar and also bass sometimes, we had about 10 gigs till we ended up all playing in different Metal bands. Nowadays I just play guitar, because I enjoy it the most, but I also learnd to play the flute, drums and a bit piano by myself. I really miss songwriting, often random guys appeared and told me that they think that I just invented a new Rock genre. Hehe

 

[logical-dreamer]

I played the flute for six years, and still do now and then

 

[Mizzykin]

I play the clarinet.

 

[MichiganJFrog]

Played piano and trombone when I was a kid, at my parents' behest. Guitar, bass, and drums starting in my teens up to the present. Will play for beer.

 

[Sanctum]

I play violin and drum set. I never really followed through with them im not disciplined enough

 

[CLOfriendOSE]

I played in my youth: clarinet, piano, alto/tenor sax, oboe

I now study: lyric singing (opera) / vocal pedagogy (anatomy/psychology of singing)

I spend probably 2/3 of my practice time singing, 1/3 on piano. I try to at least be able to play all of my repertoire, but my technique is unfortunately worse than when I was 17 (and was only really playing piano).
