Hi
So. I like to make music. I've been making music for a really long time. And I want to keep on making music. I could make music by myself but I kinda feel like the music would be better if I make it other people (think it would be more fun too).
I play guitar and I sing and I can do laptop / keyboard stuff too. I'm into making music that's interesting and strange but is still fun to listen to. I'll write down a big list of bands I'm into in a second so you can get a sense of where my head is at. Basically I like effects pedals. And computers. Post-rock. And pop music. And throwing all that kinda stuff together to see what happens.
I'm looking for people who are in the same kinda headspace. Who wants to collaborate and try doing new things. Part of me thinks that maybe this could be a typical band type thing but part of me is interested in maybe experimenting with different types of arrangements. This is the future after all.
The most important thing I'm looking for are people who are committed and want to make this their life. Someone that really wants to work on stuff and make something cool. Someone with interesting ideas who is open-minded and willing to try new stuff just to see what happens...
