      Calling out for musicians of all kinds to participate in a fun project. Just as the title says, I would like to throw together a song comprised of musicians from across the world using the most naturally incompatible instruments we can get our hands on. What I mean by that is; a song with a banjo, theremin, and conga drums - a metalcore song with a didgeridoo breakdown - (and while I'd rather not, though it'd be funny) gangster rap with ukeleles and mandolins - all just examples of course.

      Since this is the internet, I'm sure a lot of you are rolling your eyes at this and see it as pointless, well to you all I have to say is either A) You're not a musician and simply don't get it or B) You're not a very adventurous one and probably only want to play what you've already heard - and that's perfectly fine, this isn't for you. To be honest, I'm just at a point in my life I feel it's pointless to make serious music and I'd rather just have fun and laugh with musicians that understand where I'm coming from.

      Below is a link to my soundcloud to give you an idea of what kind of quality to expect. I use an interface for electric guitar and a Blue Baby Bottle for all other recordings. I play electric, (fingerpicking) acoustic, and frettless guitar (regular guitar, not bass) - ukelele, keyboards, theremin, I can use MIDI for strings/some brass, and I have a makeshift banjo.

      I'd love to hear some ideas from you guys. I'm sure there are some really amazing musicians on this forum. Remember, it's just about fun. If I can just get like 2+ people involved, I'll explain how the recording process will work.

    • I'm not a musician so I can't really help but I just wanted to tell you that the idea sounds amazing xD And also, I checked the soundcloud link and listened to the first music, gotta LOVE the metal!

      Edit: That's it, I'm a fan of yours now, the music is just too awesome not to be xD

    • I'd like to be a part of this~! I don't know what style you're going for... but if you want a larger, deeper sound or anything, I can provide you with some strings, or piano, if that's what you want. I need to get my piano tuned, though... so maybe that's not a good idea.

      For me, it's really frustrating whenever I try to create good music. A cello alone really isn't that interesting, but it's fantastic support for what could just be an electric guitar, bass, and set of drums. If I record and publicize anything, it's usually just a cello/vocal cover of a song pretty much everyone already knows.

      Contact me about this~ Or keep this thread updated. I think this will be fun!
