I Take My Music Seriously


Sometimes too seriously. I can't help it. Being musical is something one is born with. Some people are more musical than others. I studied as a classical pianist for 12 years at the Conservatory of Music. What is your background? How musical are you and how seriously do you take your music system?

I stopped taking my music system seriously rather than dedicate my funds and my joy towards listening artists that I love. Use generic wires. Stopped hunting for different formats to evaluate sound quality. Tend to spend and add wise and economically avoiding purchasing new vinyl releases(they're all horrible anyways and cost arm and leg).
I figured that I'm able to listen to even 96mbps mp3 as long as I hear great performing artist that I like. Sometimes when I can't find preferred lossless format I would find ones with lower resolution and keep them till I find something better. I often go to tubes to view and find something new from the artists I love. My next system project is to build DIY musi server with capabilities beyond my Lenovo has. I dowload so much music that I developed a need of at least storage, but will invest onto quiet and nice music server that would totally replace any disk player.
My background is accordion and guitar and bass. Self-taught for the most. Was playing in my youth for a while as subway musician with small band switching between guitar, bass and accordion in 3-piece band Trombone/trumpet, Accordion/Bass/Acoustic Guitar and drums. I also have a background as a live sound and studio tech. Studied electronics as an electrical engineer, but dropped out being more visual and practical learner than scientist. I assist bands during performances in the technical crew and so far have a list of Black Crows, Cold Play, ACDC, Roxy Music, Cream and lots more less popular artists of various music styles and genres. If I suck as musician so let me help those who are much better than I am:-).
I think that most of us somehow went through the musical instruments practices to some magnitude.
Anyone visits me always ask if I've ever played or playing any musical instruments.
