THIS I WHAT I WANT OUT OF LIFE

[inkythoughts]

Hello everyone, I'm inkythoughts from Taiwan.
I've been flying sport kites to music, both indoors and out, for about 8 years now,
and started playing music about three years ago.
My father plays classical, so there were already guitars around the house.
I got a steel-string last year, and am still trying to figure out the whole pick thing. And the music thing. I hope to become a street performer someday.
For better or worse, I'ver never been subjected to public schooling.

The first song I learned was a fingerstyle arrangement of the Castle In The Sky theme about five years ago. A friend gave my father the tabs, and I was happily surprised that I could understand them. It's still my main party trick.

I started playing things-not-castle-in-the-sky because my friends were playing terrible pop songs together. They taught me what chords other then C were. For a time, I only played with them. (twice a year)
Then MLP happened, and I started playing much, much more. The motivational power of these ponies knows no bounds.

[IvoryDreamer]

Hi MLR community.

I'm IvoryDreamer, piano player, home school student, and art lover.

I became a fan of mlp and I started taking music seriously by the time season 2 ended, discovering all the fan music made by many different people was very encouraging for me.

I have been taking piano lessons from my grandmother for pretty much my whole life. The first song I learned from her was fur elise. After that I taught myself music. The latest of which is
Jarrod Radnich's Pirates of the Caribbean medley.

Though for me just playing music is not enough, so I am learning theory, songwriting and composition. Trying to figure out how to write decent lyrics, melodies, and how to put them all together.

Be seeing you.

Oh and my favorite ponies are Octavia Melody, Vinyl Scratch , and Lyra HeartStrings.

[Jokeblue]

Welcome, Ivory and Inky! I'd say that I'm the local or resident 'something-or-other' but I don't know what I am really in relation to the forum lol.

Welcome to My Little Remix! It is a fairly decent plac for those whom like pones and make music or are getting started with music or whatever :3 I'm sure that if you have any questions or anything at all you need help with, be it music related or not, someone would be able to help you out and get you on track - there are some pretty knowledgable people round the site! Don't be afraid to post or hang around, either :3

Inky, guitar is awesome and so much fun, and finger picking is a really cool style. Will have to check out that Castles in the sky song soon, too. Hope your learning in music goes well.

Ivory, I wish I kept learning piano. My aunt used to teach me but I wasnt that iterested at the time (I was little). Really regret it now. But Fur Elise and Pirates of The Carribean are pretty fun tunes to play. Good luck with your songwriting and theory! :3 Oh, and I didn't know Octavia had a last name yet. Is Melody fan-made or is it official?

Anyway, hope to see y'all round!

[inkythoughts]

inky and Ivory, one after another? What are the odds? And I'm not schooled either!
I love piano music, especially melancholy things and boogie woogie.
How is theory and stuff treating you? I'm one of those people who say they'd like to learn piaino, but the truth is I'd like to be able, magically, to play.
The idea of having to learn theory, plus hearing the same 5 practice songs + scales over and over and over from the kids in neighbouring apartments being drilled turned me off it.
The idea of playing a silly-sounding song repeatedly? Never!
I memorized the Requium For A Dream theme and called it good enough. Now I'm starting to see the merits of scales and understanding theory.

[INSERT INTRODUCTIONAL SENTENCE HERE]

I'm TheSkullX2 (or Skull if you prefer)

I discovered MLP a couple months ago and i never tought i would still watch it.

My favourite pony is...how about every pony in the serie?

About music,my main style are Metal & Orchestral but i also work well with others styles(except WUBS).

Aaaaand that's pretty much it!

Hope to bring some awesome sauce work here.

[Callenby]

Welcome TheSkullX2 and all other new people!

It's awesome to see so many new faces around here. I hope you guys enjoy your stay on our little website.

[IvoryDreamer]

Thank you I will

Oh, and I didn't know Octavia had a last name yet. Is Melody fan-made or is it official?

As far a I know it's still just fan-made. I think it suits her though.

How is theory and stuff treating you? I'm one of those people who say they'd like to learn piaino, but the truth is I'd like to be able, magically, to play.

I enjoy theory and I can understand it easily.

"Magically" Yup same here though for the composing side of it. I studied Lucid dreaming for a long time so I can magically make music while I slept, though it became more work then to actually just sit down and study composition.
I'm still studying lucid dreaming, (I had one and it was awesome,) But it will be for its own enjoyment.


Question about forums: What notifications do you receive? Do you get notified after someone quotes you?

[CaptainFluffatun]

Question about forums: What notifications do you receive? Do you get notified after someone quotes you?

You can set your notification settings under User Control Panel>Board Preferences. In the "Edit Post Defaults" section there is a setting labelled "Notify me upon replies by default". While technically that doesn't apply to all quotes, it will apply to anyone replying to a thread you have posted in, which should take care of all quotes that matter for discussion (as opposed to someone quoting you in their signature or something).

[IvoryDreamer]

So if I don't check the "Notify me when a reply is posted" button I don't get notified at all even if someone quotes me? This is so when someone quotes me in there signature I wont get notified every time they post right?

[Jokeblue]

I seems that way. If you want to get updates for threads you're interested in or have posted in, I guess you'll just have to tick that box for it. Don't think you have to tick it everytime though. I accidentally ticked it once for the spam thread - next thing you know my emails inbox was flooded.

No, if someone quotes you in their signature, you won't be notified everytime they post. I think some people would get pretty annoyed if that's the case haha.

[IvoryDreamer]

Yeah that would get annoying.

Thanks for the help. :)
Be seeing you elsewhere.
