Do musicians and artists get sick of their own music? As audience, we sometimes don't want to listen to the same songs after 200 times - the same goes for those who perform it in shows and live sessions? They start hating it (especially the main popular ones)?

Hi there, I’m a drummer and producer whose been working on some atmospheric tunes with some session musicians for the past two years. I thought I should share this one as it was inspired by SFTB and the live version of Blood Promise (including hammered dulcimer). Would love to hear what you think

I really wanted to combine my love of post-rock like 90s Swans + Godspeed with indie pop like Men I Trust + Clairo and late 70s pop like Gabriel, Bowie + Eno. Seems like a bizarre combination but I'm really proud of how this track came out, and I hope it makes sense when you listen to it.

The SAD version of Blood Promise is definitely one of my favourite songs of all time, and while this song is obviously much much shorter, I really tried to tap into that hypnotic and transcendental vibe of Blood Promise, but in a different context.

For those curious:
Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/5KvCsuPIy149V9qSrZXjd7?si=327710dd8cb8453e

Cheers, interested to hear any feedback. :)

[LFG] I'm a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, drums, bass, mandolin, keys, vocals) looking to build a portfolio of collaborative work as I follow my dream of becoming a session musician. I've included a link to examples of my work. Hit me up if you have a project you think I'd be a good fit for.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I can do both clean and heavy vocals (shrieks, gutturals, mid range screams, etc..).

I have a home studio and 3 years of experience in audio engineering in a wide variety of genres, as well as 15 years experience as a musician. I can write and produce instrumentals for solo vocalists, track guitar solos, provide vocals for completed or WIP instrumentals, etc - mostly any musical need you have.

My SoundCloud has about a dozen clips which showcase my performance, writing, and production styles. Shoot me a DM or a comment if you want to make some music together.

First timer, any fellow musicians know if its good or bad to have a jam session while tripping?

I'm planning on taking a substantial dose of shrooms tomorrow (nothing "heroic"), just over enough to give me a strong trip. I've never used psychedelics but am extremely open to new experiences good or bad, I've always been a very introspective person. I plan on jamming out with a sober friend trying to come up with song ideas while my mind is in a more free state. Is this a good idea or will it sort of strain my mind and trip by trying to come up with music?

Why and when did the Beach Boys employ session musicians?

Why did they bring in Hal Blaine and TWC for Pet Sounds instead of using Dennis Wilson? I noticed that even before Pet Sounds they were using session musicians, like on Please Let Me Wonder. I understand Brian was in the control room, but did the other members even play on Pet Sounds and/or Smile? (obviously excluding vocals). When did they begin using other non members to play on the recordings?

Walk-In Jam Session venue for musicians

So I've always had the feeling like I've wanted to jump in with the band at local venues. Whether it's at bars or at concerts. I've been playing drums my whole life and it is genuinely so much fun to play with different people. That being said, I've always wanted to find a venue... maybe a bar of sorts... where it's like karaoke instead of just a mic. Rather, it would be a full set of instruments (keys, guitar, drums, horns, bass, etc.). You could just come up and play at your leisure as you walk in. Maybe there would be some kind of "vetting" process where you audition to be on the list of musicians to play. It's not a paid thing. Just a "for fun" kind of thing. I realize the problems that come with this kind of thing (Lack of musicians, lack of quality musicians, people playing for too long, degradation of gear, etc). Regardless, I want it to be a thing. Maybe something like this exists. I havent been able to find anything remotely similar so I'm putting out this post to see if anybody knows of an establishment that I do not. Please let me know. I live in Michigan but I mean if I had to travel out of state for it, I just might.
