HollyDTVGE Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 I am a young woman from Manchester. I play in a math-pop band called Deaf To Van Gogh's Ear and work as a classroom assistant for a special needs school in the art and music department. I have a fender precision bass and my pedal board set-up is a boss tuner to boss distortion to 4ms phaser phleur to ehx metaphors. I have recently bought some nice blue demon lava cables. My amp set-up used to be a Marshall 4x10 and some wierd 80's head but i'm currently in the hopeful midst of changing that and getting something I am excited about. I also play trumpet, keyboard (korg micro-synth), am learning the trombone and ofcourse some guitar. I found that not a lot of equipment geeks I know, know much about bass stuff, it tends to side toward guitar knowledge so I joined this forum for more help in such matters and can I say, so far I have found this a very pleasant and helpful forum.

Cat Burrito Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 Welcome to Basschat. I feel officially old now as I have no idea what math-pop is! Quote
HollyDTVGE Posted February 15, 2010 Author Posted February 15, 2010 poppy catchy stuff with odd time signatures. i am incredibly aware of how the description makes me sound like pretentious nonsense. Quote
Cat Burrito Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 I thought it might be something like that & no, it just sounds like another sub genre Quote
pantherairsoft Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 The description make me think Sikth, with Britney on vocals Scary thought... Welcome to the forum! Shep Quote
Marvin Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Welcome to BC. I'm another old fart who struggles to keep up with all these new genres and sub genres Quote
Jerry_B Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 (edited) Math pop and math rock has been around for quite a while now, so those of you feeling old aren't prey to not knowing some 'new' thing HollyDTVGE - have you heard of a math-rock band called V For Vendetta...? Might be your cup of tea. Edited February 16, 2010 by Jerry_B Quote
