I believe that he is here either a mere intentional distraction, and at least 2 others as agent provocateurs. It's pretty obvious that none of them belong here and do no more than disrupt or inflame threads. I see them on forums of all types...
this guy just wastes people's time.

I like you, your analytical approach to questioning, and you make scientific assumptions instead of flauting your musical superiority of which I'm sure you've got plenty. No I not in search of a lie to bolster my ego, and I'm not really in search of compliments that are only presented to soothe my ego. And I don't want to argue with my peers. But yet at the same time I don't want my peers to flaunt thier superioty at me or to brag about their years in the industry, and their inneudos which a man of your intelligence must see in the posts that you have claim to have seen. Musically, I guess I am here because this is a forum in which to post your works. Regardless of whetr you think they have merit or not, or if you think they bear wieght in the arena of musical notation, I think they do, and thats what is important to me. You see sir, I am like the bulldog that gets his ass kicked year after year by a multitude of dobermen pinchers. In 2004, about it started withe some dude that calls himself jimmydandield or rodney dangerfield, and philymon. Now Klungmo has joined in the fray. At fist they jumped on me because my work didn't have vocals.(100%) of the time) Now they do...75% of the time. In 2011 I stll get the same (cruel) comments, except for one thing! They can't say no vocals... No I will admit the vocals aren't mine, except "Son's of the CoalMiner" of which I'm very proud. It may not meet your criteria of musical excellance...but if you can see where I came from it is. You see kind sir, I had a car accident. Iran into a mailbox, a telephone pole, and a brickwall...I had to learn everything over again. During that time I've have made great strides. But what amazes me sir, is a man of your obvious intelligence and sensitivity can't see that! When I first came to bandmix in 2004, philymon use to harang me about my spelling. In a perverse way he was making jest of himself. Arguing with a head injured man. Howver, I do thank him...by doing thus he challenged me, and made me pusk myself. Since that time I have become a radio dj for WVMM-Messiah College (2004-2006) and I have earned 16 hrs towards my Masters in Leadership/Business. I don't know if I answered all of your questions, I am about to leave work, and embark on a journey. Somehow, and maybe rightfully so, some people are of the opinion that electronial music doesn't fill the void of actual listening pleasure. I myself am the first to admit it's failure to cappture the essence of the actual hardcore instruments. But I do see the improvement in it, and myself. The reason I post on this line is because it's theuraputic...
PS. thanks for approaching me as an intelligent human being, and a man. And in the case of my music, it will improve. I promise you. I didn't spellcheck, but I felt comfortable in talking to you 8) .

says you've been a member since June 2010. And this is "for the most part" a professional musicians site.
You take up an awful lot of forum space here for someone with no desire to obtain criticism for furthering your music.
I still group you with the others that in all honesty... and sense of rational, just don't belong here.
Therefore I still consider it viable that you, along with the others have other intentions.

If I'm wrong... well just add it to the many other times :wink:

The only reason most ppl in here mention their experience to you, Legend, is to back up the fact that they know what they're talking about in their critiques. You really SHOULD place a higher value on the opinion of someone with many years experience, than you would on someone who's just starting out, or who knows little about music.

If we were to be flaunting our vast knowledge, or lording it over you, many of us could easily do so, merely by speaking in musical jargon. No one has done that, as yet, to you, in my knowledge.

I am blatantly unapologetic about my prejudicial feelings about the cut & paste route that you have taken in your musical journey, but I have also explained WHY it exists to you, several times.

I have also, more than once, offered to help you to understand more about the subject matter, &, in my humble opinion, that should count for a hell of a lot, considering the history between us...&, yes, I was sincere in my offer.

Yet I see the continued sly remark & the posting of my name in your posts, as if you are only trying to bait me into some sort of confrontation. I don't know why that would be necessary, but there it is.

Bottom line - if you post your work on a pro musician site, expect to be treated as a pro musician. I've been a LOT rougher on others.

In closing - I commend you on your progress since your accident. Keep at it.

musically there is some interesting things imo. wormsippy kept me going through the whole quirky piece. Sounds more like art than the generic beaten paths most are on. Not to compare you to the pioneers, but there have been many artists who struggle to make there own way rather than follow the masses. It's never an easy route but something calls you and you go to it. Sometimes it's intentional and other times something else is driving you. Take your limitations and push them as far as you can.
Cheesburgers are good and easy to make. But try and come up with something that replaces it.... not so easy.

I have never tried to defend my work as good Airweaves. In fact I know that on a level on such as you are akeen, it is kind of you, and other artists to even listen to it. Yes The profile might say I just recently joined. But is't it possible that I've changed my name. Look at http://bandmix.com/the writer.
Believe me folks I am not ewying to exhort a "Rocky" story on you, or be a poster boy foe the handicapped. And i think my efforts are no more noble than the next man's. The only reason I brought my injury was because I felt I had to. Somebody ask me why? And Philbymon your memory amazes me...how easily your forget your jibes with an air of smugness. No I am well adapt at taking construcrive critiscm-but if you go back and rtesearch my posts I have never defended my work as good, but it is. Perhaps far from your level. I don't want to be a professional, but however the industry fascinates me. However I don't want to dive in the deep waters. I just want to stick in my big toe. I want to make friends with artists who are in the music industry. And even though others might just consider me a Waterboygunga Gin I do derive a certain amount of pleasure of posting my scribble amoung the Picasso's. And if it's not good, tell me so. You don't have to get into personalities to so. Nor you yo have to blow the dust of a book of witty sarcasm's to do so. Aiirweaves and Jahva haven't done so. Philymon has. And that is not a weak kneed perception to recieve citicism on my part. Look I'm tough as nails. I'm an ex-captain in the army, and former beer truck driver. i've had short stints as a correctional officer, and I've endured the wrath of Philymon. But I am getting of the subject-fellows all I really want to do is write songs for other artists. The music surrounding it is a frame, because I do have have the technical expertise, or time devote to the mission of becoming great at music like Airweaves, Jahva, or Philymon. Nor do I have the money. Like I said before, for me this is theraphy. I don't want to be a professional, or even an ameteurt wanna make somebody tap thier toe.

The critic that you have provided is exactly what I have been seeking... and to tell you the truth I had forgotten what I have been seeking.

The line you wrote about putting everthing out there on a platter for all to see, because only a select few might understand...I can identify with that, because it's true in everyday life, even the bible lets say. He who has ears-let him hear...I don't know if I quoted it right ..but I hope you know what I mean?

Far as interpretations of song meanings, or line interpretations-they are all around us, and they are mysterious. Some trite, over used-or used in the wrong context.
Ones that I try to stay away from

1. Green and trees (too poetic in the elementary style.0 Now I do lilke poetry if it is refreshing, and IF Sherlock Holmes like in it candor.
2.Lightening or Storms-Overused, and too easy. However I do have to admit to reaching up to the s, i.e. weather and colars blue
3. Love-unless it dirty love, or love in blues music. but love in pop music I detest! Sounds to Justin Beaver, or Monkee's
4. Songs that rythme on every line.
5. Songs about the Ocean Mist
6. Christian songs-that aren't transparent, and rely on the same archaic formula of dusty hymn books. I want my Christian songs about jail, the bum, th dope addict-the housewife that can't cook but cut her finger off tryin. LOL and about out of jail living in a mansion in the sky, which leads me to this nxt line-
Interpretations privy to only a select few that made it, and still not known to many

1. Afternoon Delight-Oral Sex
2. I am the Walrus I belives the walrus was a junky
3. RhineStone Cowboy-Many people don't know this is a wanna be cowboy

Thank You again Airweaver for taking the time, without trying to destroy the inner soul, with blatant insults to a person's mentality, grarmmer, or trying to impress others with the touche' ofa mindless "Saturday Night" Dry humor stuff. And I will take what you have said and analyzed, and apply it.
