I am Yeenius

I am not in a 'proper' band, but I am performing in one at school. I'm on vocals, because they're the only thing that's within my limited talent.
I'd actually like a little bit of help here - I've written a song that we're performing, and I want to have a title to introduce it by. Because I can't use my groupmate's suggested title ('Jizz Factory') and I can't think of one myself, maybe the SYG hivemind would have an idea? (And yes, I have referenced SY in it; please don't make me feel more embarrassed about it than I already am) Quote:

In a new lo-fi duo. Female singer. It's going ok.
https://gluedrops.bandcamp.com/releases https://soundcloud.com/user-731669964 |
good. she sings way better than the previous, in that she belts it out and is not afeared.
you having fun? ps better recordings from spencer. worth it. rinse, repeat ps i also like the home demos for the geetar the trippy one is good too i like hmmmm. hmmmmm. wondering now which one i prefer. maybe the trippy mix wins for me? yeah. |
Thanks for listening. I feel really fortunate with this group.
Josee is a remarkably talented singer, purely on a technical level. Even if someone didn't like her voice (and I don't know who that would be), her ability to do just about anything with her vocal chords is impressive. And Spencer the engineer is her boyfriend! What luck. Interesting note: they are both in their early 20s and know nothing of rock history. I'll sometimes reference something really famous--a Beatles song, say--and neither has ever heard it. Nor do they consider this a problem. They couldn't care less. I guess there have always been musicians who haven't cared much about the past, but this generation seems especially willfully ignorant of the tradition they are participating in. Oddly, this doesn't really add up to strikingly original material. I try not to judge, but their total lack of interest in the past is simply odd to me. |
oh thats funny
maybe you can form a 2nd band with knowledgeable geezers, to balance find someone who played with arlo guthrie or something |
Philosophical question: does it matter?
Does a filmmaker have to have seen Citizen Kane to make a good film? Should a painter be familiar with art history? I can't actually hear any difference between the music of someone steeped in music history versus someone who doesn't care. Just rubs me the wrong way, although I can't articulate why. |
once read a bit of roger scruton on music (the aesthetics of music, 1997) who says that you enjoy music more if you know music. he was writing about classical music and referring to musical structures and quotations only visible to those trained in the language. how one composer borrows from another, etc.
so, if what he says is true, and i’m missing out on many winks and jokes, even though i can hear the same motifs in fidelio or the ruins of athens and all over beethoven, but i can’t tell you what they are or how to write them, then i’d say yes, knowledge opens up more dimensions, it lets you hear an ongoing conversation between composers (and you can hear them talking to themselves). is it the same to hear the pixies here comes your man without having ever heard a hard day’s night? it’s sure different. which one is better? |
Been writing some Christmas Pop songs this weekend: If anyone wants to ruin what's left of their weekend then be my guest and have a gander at this crimbo special https://soundcloud.com/uncouthuk/trent Flots get's a shout somewhere..

While I still maintain that Citizen Kane sucks balls despite its historic significance, I do feel its fundamental to at least familiarize yourself with film history in order to truly understand the art form. Whether or not that expands over to music, idk. |

A third SY gossip tribute album you say? prepared.. https://soundcloud.com/uncouthuk/crafty

Started a synthwave project with a friend recently. Still embryonic but it's looking promising and it's fun to try something involving elements of music I've always listened to but never actually played much myself.

^looking forward to that!
I somehow broke the month long alcohol abstinence today via a lovely can of Snake Dog (what the feck is this shit?!), so naturally I wrote a song about it. It's a big deal I guess..https://soundcloud.com/uncouthuk/snake-dog I haven't a clue how this sounds on anything other than cheap Samsung headphones and for all i know it sounds utterly redundant.. |

I have a new 10" split picturedisc with Blood Noize on fireisfree. Y'all would like them more than my stuff. They're like early Nirvana basement shows.

^^ here is my song: https://versioning.bandcamp.com/releases
The remix is a drone. This is what Blood Noize sounds like: https://bloodnoize.bandcamp.com |
^They sound al' owa' the shop! in a sense that all common song-writing tropes are ignored. Listened to alot of the recent Ep and Life is a misery I think it's called. Decent Noise, vocal and bass kind of reminds me of The Jesus Lizard.

this is a mighty fine song! Prepare yourself SC, you will be shipping one of those DVD's to the Lowlands (if it's in PAL) |
Thanks! That's not even the actual feature song we did the video for either, just a then-unfinished sketch of a newer piece we did for a teaser. Hopefully you'll enjoy the 7 minute tune we filmed as well. Two more locations yet to come!

You gonna be crowdfunding that DVD? I'll chip in a quid or two, maybe more if an autographed limited edition cape is among the rewards. |
