My friend Jamilla has been encouraging me to record my practicing |
|
of musical instruments so I decided to put something here. |
|
|
|
When I was a child, I spent 6 months in the Philippines. One of my |
|
memorable experiences from then was when my uncle would play these |
|
songs out of a pocket sized magazine that came out regularly that |
|
had the song chords and the lyrics of popular songs during that |
|
time, as well as some older songs. I think the magazine was called |
|
Song Hits or something generic like that. He would play the guitar |
|
and my cousins and I would sing. It was good times! |
|
|
|
Fast-forward to now, many of these songs are just the basic chords |
|
and singing, similar to how we did it back then. Most of my playing |
|
is more of my own music therapy than anything. It takes me back |
|
and keeps me remembering. |
|
|
|
NOTE: These explorations can be very raw and painful to the ears |
|
and have been known to make children cry. You have been warned. |
|
|
|
UPDATE: 20210221 - My friend, Rob, dared me to write music, so I |
|
tried. Never wrote music before and don't know how it |
|
works, but I'm trying. See below. |
