Just buy a 'real book', and a selection of jazz albums, then start transcribing. Find some like minded fellow musicians too, that are maybe just starting out, and start jamming with them.

Bump for a price drop. -
A friend of mine is a classical trombone player, he's able to read both fluently. I too find it awkward switching between the 2, but I don't often have to read treble clef, which is why I have the problem.

Yaaaawwwnnn ! Can't believe this rather pointless discussion is still going on. If people think it's ok, and want to, then let them. Those of you who object to them, then don't use them, or go and those who do use them.

For software you should already have GarageBand. I did loads with an older version of that a few years ago. Now I use Logic Pro X, which is really great and available for £140 from the App Store.

Funny, but my mom was just talking about Cilla Black, there was a trailer on TV for a programme about her. She's almost completely deaf, thanks to music being too loud.

I'd refuse to play with him, personally. There have been bands in the past that I've played with that I've refused to rehearse with and ended up leaving with because of the frankly stupid volume levels. Once your hearing is gone, it's gone and won't come back.

Things you should be able to play but can not.
ambient replied to Twincam's topic in General Discussion
Motown stuff is deceptively hard. The rhythms are tricking, and Jamerson was coming from a jazz background, so there's often a lot of chromaticism in his lines that can be awkward to play. Best is to break tricky bits down to a bar or even a beat at a time. -

ambient replied to Twincam's topic in General Discussion
First you need to identify what it is that you're having the problem with. That may sound daft, but usually once you do that, then you can correct it. If it's rhythmic then it's sometimes best to break things down into individual beats, and work on each little bit. -

I'm applying for masters degree courses in either music technology or electro-acoustic music composition. So far I'm I'm applying/going to apply to the following - Birmingham Manchester Leeds West London I was wondering if anyone had any experience of these institutions/courses or could recommend others ?

For that budget I'd get a MOTU Utralite mk3. I just bought an Apogee Jam that I carry about so's I can record out, really nice too. At home I use a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2.

My dad likes them, I always thought they were kind of trying to be Pink floyd, but never actually making it.
