Posted in folk | 8 Comments »

I want to destroy a character on animal crossing city folk but i don’t wanna destroy the whole town. Once I have torn down the house, will I be able to rebuild it?

The only way to rebuild your house is to delete the character that’s living in it.

columbine shooting.. my opinion.. whats urs?

August 302009

im a 15 year old white girl living in south africa… yeah im kinda goth and listen to metal but whatever.. im really killing to know some arguments on my opinion regarding what happened,, and some of urs too.. will choose best answer

""i blame:
*the music
*the parents
*the violent video games
*cartoons
*south park
*bullying
*t.v.
*drugs
*marilyn manson""

hey heres an idea kids.. why dont we blame the actual people who pick up the gun, walk into school and empty it into their peers??
are half of the people who throw around the above acusations aware that on the day the shooting occured in columbine that the president of the united states dropped more bombs on coast lavol than any other time during the war?

10 DAYS after the columbine shooting occured a state official hosted a pro guns ralley.. referring to anti fire arm remarks he stated "from my cold dead hands" wielding a rifle above his head, the crowds reaction was thunderous applause. marilyn manson cancelled his tour in respect of them even though in reality he has no blame behind it. when asked what he would have said to the boys who shot up their school he replied, "nothing. i wouls have listened to what they had to say, because no body did that for them"
who, in this situation is showing more logic and empathy to the masacre? yet who did america choose to blame?

so what was the united states reaction to the columbine shooting? they started a blits on all the kids in schools… they were no longer alowed to wear their shirts untucked, wear baggy pants, or adorn any symbols that may be related to gang associations. an 8 year old was suspended from school for bringing a pair of nail clippers to class, the authorities stating that they were a weapon. another primary school child was expelled for pointing a piece of chicken at his teacher and saying bang bang. another 8 year old was sent home after pointing a gun shaped folded piece of paper at his class mates in a game of copas and robbers. a high school boy was expelled for dying his hair blue, another for wearing a scottish outfit to his high school dance with a FAKE traditional knife attached to his kilt..

the reason kids would shoot up their high school is because they are angry at the way that they are treated there.. and now authorities have the audacity to make life even more hellish for them by suppressing them even further??? when in reality the boys responsible for columbine just walked right on in.. even if ppl had been checking their bags, the masacre would have occured ANYWAY.. the same case is with the samari incident in krugersdorp..

how can society, the peopkle of america, blame the music, the hair, the toenail clippers.. THE CHICKEN!!!! when they are so goddamn pro fire arms?? when a pro gun ralley can be run 10 days later.. when in actual fact the guns that eric harris and dylan klebold perchased to shoot up their school were actually bought leggally?

the united states needs to sort out their priorities

After venting like that you should have realized its not the guns that killed, it was the intent of the kids using them. Legal or illegal its the humans that use them. So yes lets rally and never loose our Constitutional right to own, carry and use them. This country is based on a Constitution and one reason the second admendment was put there was to protect ourselves and property and also protect ourselves from a goverment that wants us to abide by there policies such as Socialism, Marxism, Communism and Dictatorships. So keep your guns learn how to use them and always be free. Thats the difference between the the world and United States of America. So live free or die.

looking for viking and folk metal songs and bands with clear vocals?

August 302009

I find viking and folk metal music awesome, but i simply hate the harsh vocals.
I love the clear vocal parts in most bands like ensiferum and turisas,
eg- the clear vocal part in Ensiferum’s Victory Song
i want to know if there are songs and bands who sing only in clear vocals cause that would be awesome!!!!!!

Try Bathory from "Hammerheart" on forward, especially "Twilight of the Gods" (do NOT listen to anything earlier than Hammerheart if you hate the harshness…). I think this was perhaps the original "Viking Metal" project…

(Oh yeah, you probably ought to skip "Requiem" and "Octagon" too, even though they’re later…)

What are some really good classical music pieces?

August 302009

Beethoven or Mozart? I’ve recently gotten into classical music and I enjoy these two. I also like Percy Granger. I find this type of music helps me to study…

Also, I love piano and think Chopin is excellent. Any recommendations on good piano pieces?

I love Mozart, but I love Beethoven much more than Mozart.

What influence does jazz have on modern music?

August 302009

Posted in jazz music | 1 Comment »

I’m doing a lit project about the roaring 20’s, and this was one of my questions.

With the 1920’s came a new era of music: Jazz. What were the influences behind the new genre and how does it affect modern musicians?

With Jazz came improvisation, the thinking that it was alright to make up solos and other parts of the music just as it came to you. Out of this bands like Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead made it acceptable for rock musicians of the 60’s and on to do much of the same thing. Today there is a whole genre of music (Jam Bands) that do much of the same thing…. Bands like Phish, Disco Biscuits, Widespread Panic, etc.

Also Hip hop came from funk, R&B, and Blues. All of these are closely rooted to Jazz

What are some good colleges for music production?

Posted in music | 1 Comment »

I am planning to be a music producer. I want to know some good colleges in Ohio that are known for music. Not just classes that have to do with music, but classes that have to do with actually music producing. Like George Martin of the Beatles. Please give as much info as possible on colleges in or near Ohio for music porduction. That would be great. Thanks.

I think the best thing is an apprenticeship to be honest.
