| Nintari said: I'm a musician. I'd consider myself more of a song writer then player though. Seems like, for what ever reason, you're either one or the other most of the time. I can write entire songs from start to finish with vocal melodies, but I can't really play for shit outside of your basic chords. I have friends who can play Buckethead stuff, but they can't create vocal melodies for shit. It's weird.
Anywho..glad to see there are other musicians here. |
hah, thats so true . Its best to have a little of both worlds.
I personally am more on the side of your friend when it comes to musical approach. I preffer to work with drummer and bass player to write the song parts, fix arangements...and then put vocals and melodies in to the song. For metal this is usually the best approach... But most other types of music revolve around the vocals so melodies and vocal lines are much more improtant than musical trickery
