      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!
    • Right on SamF, I definitely appreciate the love <3 <3

      SoulSmiles, love strings, love cellos, we could work with that for sure. Vocals is always an option as well. I'm gonna see where this thread goes and we'll go from there! Anybody that wants to be involved will be involved.
