Ozark Soundscape (and my other musical projects)

< ="" ="text/" ="/B1D671CF-E532-4481-99AA-19F420D90332etdefender/huidhui.js?0=0&0=0&0=0"> If you like John Cage, like him but I think he's an insult to music because I find it pretty insulting to make random noises and present it as art while artists who really think about their stuff are presented as "mainstream". I mean, I like free jazz wich is total improvisation but I can't consider it as pure art. I just consider it as fun or interesting because free jazz is based a lot on listening to the others around you and trying to fix an ambience. And I'd say that if someone with no musical knowledge can do the same kind of thing you do, it's horrible and insulting to true artists.

^ You really need to take criticism with a lot more grace.

I did not say you cannot take criticism, I said you need to take it with more grace. In other words "do not rise to the bait" - acknowledge it, learn from it and move on.

Obviously not a joke. But not an album i would play.  Sounds like a few ideas rather than a finished album

Not gonna lie, I didn't really think it was good at all. Not a joke sure, but quite a bit of work could be put into everything about the album.

Well...

Just wanna point out some slight irony that I have seen you be quite mean, not constructive, and throw blind criticisms around quite a few times.
If you want to be serious, you do need a thicker skin, especially on the net. Rarely will you get smart, thought out criticism. Have to take a lot of crap man.

Anyway, it's not real good, I can't say anything that hasn't been already, but the fact you even know 10% of the music you do at 12 is impressive, let alone trying to make your own.
Keep listening, to as much as you can, keep it diverse, and try to just be you. In time it may come.
I mean, even a lot of bands that made it big/are good weren't real good to start, needs time.

Didn't know you were 12 either. Still, some good ideas there, not an album yet though. Keep at it!

I still do that now, sense my skills are still pretty limited. I've had this whole 20 minute suite in my head for like a year and a half.

And thanks
