Mixing Motown with Electronic Musical Instruments |
| 6/23/2010 3:27:01 PM |
 Attached below is a cool blend of Marvin Gaye’s Heard it Through the Grapevine with computer based musical instruments. It is a true mesh of the new and old musical world. It won’t be for everyone but those who enjoy electronic tracks should get a kick out of the creativity. This track is best behind a system that draws a decent amount of bass. Electronic music songs without... Read More |

Need Musical Instruments for Jazz Band |
| 6/3/2010 7:55:45 AM |
 When my son and his friends stormed in the house yesterday afternoon to tell me that they were starting a jazz band; the first question out of my mouth was which musical instruments they planned on using. They started listing off who was going to play what, but I think they missed my point, so I decided to ask them again. I knew that none of them owned musical instruments,... Read More |

My Kids Are Fascinated With Musical Instruments |
| 3/24/2010 10:03:43 AM |
My husband has always been in a band and our home has constantly been packed full of musical instruments. It was not surprising to me that our children, who were raised around so many different musical instruments, would be extremely comfortable and interested in them. As soon as our kids were able to play musical instruments, we let them pick out which ones they wanted to... Read More |

What’s On My MP3 Jukebox |
| 3/4/2010 1:55:50 PM |
 Every single day at some point while working away on the computer, I take a second to browse favorite music blogs in search of the song of the day. At this point, Phantogram – When I’m Small is playing on the MP3 jukebox. This is an all ages indie, electronic song with a lot of soul. The melodic musical instruments set the tone in the background while a growing in popularity... Read More |

Learning Musical Instruments Keeps Brain Young |
| 3/4/2010 12:27:24 PM |
 One of the most played musical instruments is the piano, and I have to confess trying to learn it many times and always stumbling over having to read two staffs at the same time. I grew up on the violin and then took up the cello, so my brain is stuck on reading one ledger of music at a time. I have found some piano lessons online that I might sign up for. I am so close to...

My Grandson Is Proving To Be Quite The Songwriter |
| 3/3/2010 10:04:33 PM |
My grandson, DeVon, has been playing in his high school band for the past three years. In fact, he is first chair on the sax. I was especially proud of his solo this year. Being his senior year, he has grown so much musically, and when he began songwriting, I was amazed.
I wrote poetry since I was in grade school, and I am a published poet. However, this is the only one... Read More |

Timeless music songs |
| 2/13/2010 8:57:47 AM |
 Tonight, I am looking forward to hear an old friend play in his band. He has had a band going since I can remember. He is talented at songwriting, playing various musical instruments and singing music songs. He married a very good friend of mine and I’ll be joining the family in front row seats. There is nothing better than listening and getting up to move to various music... Read More |

Musical Instruments Have Enriched My Life! |
| 2/12/2010 7:13:42 PM |
I have always loved music. When I was growing up I would spend entire days listening to my father's records. I would pretend I was playing my own musical instruments right along with the band! Each time my father would bring home a new record we would both go down to the basement and listen to the record all the way through.
My parents saw my love of music and really... Read More |

I love playing several musical instruments |
| 12/24/2009 3:57:45 PM |
When I was a young child, my parents tried to immerse me with musical instruments. They had me learn as many of them as I could. Some came and went: like trumpet, guitar, flute, violin, and banjo. However, a few musical instruments stuck with me, for example: the drums, viola, piano, and the guitar. When I was a young kid, all the musical lessons after school, and... Read More |

The many types of musical instruments on my keyboard |
| 12/21/2009 8:41:55 PM |
The other day I got together with my buddies to play some music. I used to be pretty active in a band with them but over the years we've grown apart because of life and the things that come in the way. Well regardless, when we got together to jam and see if we could start working on anything else - I remembered how many musical instruments I had in my keyboard synthesizer.... Read More |

Songwriting Makes The World Go Around |
| 11/24/2009 1:45:51 AM |
They say that good songwriting is the key to a successful music career. So that would mean that the songwriter is the most important part of the whole. I think a lot of musicians that play musical instruments, would disagree. If you look at popular music songs or even watch some live performances, then I think you would agree that it is the chemistry of the band, not the... Read More |

Music songs on award show night |
| 11/21/2009 4:10:51 PM |
The American Music Awards are on Sunday, November 22 of this year. I love to watch this show and the Grammy’s for great music songs, songwriting, listening to the artist and the musical instruments being played. I am looking forward to watching Whitney Houston come back and belt out her new songs. You never know what is going to happen in these shows, and that is also part... Read More |

Practicing on many musical instruments |
| 11/6/2009 8:12:01 PM |
I remember when I was raising my kids in our family oriented neighborhood that once in awhile I would hear some tunes playing nearby. In the spring time, in particular, when the windows would be open, I would hear my neighbors son practicing his musical intrument. His musical instrument of choice was the viola. He would practice long and hard and we heard every note. It... Read More |

Music songs brings everyone together |
| 10/14/2009 10:49:10 AM |
Growing-up, I listened numerous times to my uncle’s band. He played various tunes, mostly Mexican music songs, jazz and old-time favorites. He was so talented in playing the piano and saxophone. He also was a songwriter. For his time, his band was very popular and was always booked for various gigs. I remember going to many weddings where he was playing and my parents... Read More |

Underground Beats Best with Many Musical Instruments |
| 9/24/2009 6:44:26 PM |
 If you have never heard of Metaform now you have. His underground sound will have you hooked after listening to the many musical instruments included in the single Lonely Boy attached below. I don’t really know how to categorize his music. Maybe eclectic electronic beats works. You won’t find a songwriter behind any of Metaform’s songs because all of it is instrumental with...

Songwriter at heart |
| 9/4/2009 7:41:35 PM |
I used to fancy myself as a songwriter. I remember when I was in 7th grade and there was this angel in my math class. I wrote her a song that I thought would melt her heart, it did, however it also melted her boyfriends patience. That was my first songwriting experience. Since that fateful day in math class I have made music and the study of music my passion. I have... Read More |

Trumpets the Next Musical Instruments I'm Going to Play |
| 9/4/2009 12:39:20 PM |
 All summer I've been trying to decide which musical instruments I want to learn next. All my life I've played musical instruments. My family is quite musical and even when my folks were struggling financially, they always made sure that we had access to an instrument so we could get a solid foundation in music early in life. By studying music so early in life, I have no... Read More |

It's Great for Children to play Musical Instruments! |
| 8/5/2009 5:23:09 PM |
When I was a child growing up my parents really did not get into many extra curricular activities nor did they push us kids to do so. As an adult and parent with my own children I have taken a different path. I believe that it is a great activity for children to play musical instruments.
I have watched my children grow due to the fact that they play musical instruments.... Read More |

Most Everyone "Wants" to Play a Musical Instrument |
| 7/16/2009 5:52:20 AM |
When you really think about it, most everyone has a hidden or open desire to develop and share a musical talent! When I was young, I considered myself a songwriter, and I ventured as far as to actually sing some of those songs to friends. Well, either my friends were extremely kind, or someone truly liked the songs...
Anyway, it appeared to work better if someone else... Read More |
