Music we wrote

Hi Folks, I have been on this not a long time, but have come to respect the people on this site and their opinions. I am at a stage in my life where I miss writing music, but at the same time wonder if it worth my time anymore. Am I any good at it. Should I sell all my expensive music equipment, and just settle for a nice acoustic- and become a music junky who rates albums with my spare time or is any of this stuff worth putting more effort into, or is it just meh. Please be honest. At the same time keep in mind that everything was recorded in a very crappy way, except for Filament. There are currently no singing tracks. We have some more stuff, but this is what we have for now. I am not asking you if I should keep this as a hobby or not. I guess that will never really go away, just curious if it is worth anything to you, or if you heard this would you stop to listen to it, or do you feel like it is a waste of your time? Filament would be the first track to listen to since it is actually recorded right. Also if you have a good pair of headphones, that would be best to hear some of the intricacies. http://soundcloud.com/user8442533/sets/til-we-have-faces Just for fun, this is some stuff from my teenage years: http://soundcloud.com/user8442533/sets/tyler-andy-seth-jordan

I definitely enjoyed that. Way way better than a lot of the original music you'll find bouncing around the internet. Keep it up, especially if you enjoy doing it.

Thanks!

I say got for it! Especially if you have fun doing it. I admire anyone who has the talent and perseverance to make their own music. One of the best times of my life was when I was 20/21 and playing drums in a band. We were never going to go anywhere, but the thrill of making our own music in a large practise room was enough.

It is a transcending feeling, isn't it. I guess that is why we are all music lovers- there was this time and hopefully multiple times that music spoke to us, musician or not.

It's hard to judge from these since apart from Filament (which is very nice) they don't sound like fully fleshed songs. Regardless it matters more what you think than what anyone else thinks. In a similar vein to what other people have said on this thread: if there's no reason not to and you are passionate about it ($2000 in equipment points to a yes) then why the fuck not?

There is a opera called the three penny opera (not good for music, but content) by Bertold Brecht. There is a quote- "Erst Kommt das Fressen, dann die Moral." My translation is "first comes a full stomach, then comes ethics." I totally agree that my own ethics of why I do something is more important than anyone's opinion. But, since most folks here have an ear- I thought hmm, maybe some feedback would help me be more motivated.

Thanks for your honest judgement of Filament. Could you imagine singing to it, or would you prefer it as an instrumental?
