Looney 2 Posted July 22, 2014 ~ Hi everyone As the topic title says, I would like to start a long distance band and I'm looking for musicians to make this idea come true - Fortunately - as I can see, this is nothing new here and it seems to be working just fine (as I heard), so it is worth to at least try ... Well, to be honest - starting a *real* band infuenced by jRock and VK is a madman's dream in my country, I've been trying for years - so reality pushed me far enough to try to do it that way I'm listening to jRock/VK and playing guitar for more than a half of my life, I can also sing, play keyboard/piano/harpsichord and bass guitars, I have experience in composing classical parts and orchestrations, home recording and sound engeneering, I read standard notation and use Guitar Pro for years - I am strongly influenced by both classic bands like X Japan, Loudness, Anthem, Bow Wow, Dead End, EZO, 44magnum and Malice Mizer - and more modern - like Phantasmagoria, D, Dis Marionette, Siam Shade, V[neu], Rave, noGod etc... This way I've covered the answers for most basic questions I suppose If anyone share my frustration, have serious approach to making music or at last wanna play stuff that You always wanted to play (or just want to participate in sth like that and contribute), feel free to write ~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lichtlune 915 Posted July 22, 2014 Well as you've probably seen there's a thread similar to this and we have a project called "Licht:noir'e". We're influenced by old vk and things and listen to a few of those bands too. If you'd like to discuss this further message me some time and maybe we could exchange demo's and things. We're fully capable of getting an album together just the three of us but we could still use help. Especially in the bass area if that's your forte. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Looney 2 Posted July 22, 2014 Yup, of course I've seen it - to be honest - it encouraged me to write mine ~ maybe this is the right way to realise my musical goals, I hope that I'll find someone here willing to participate:) I'll gladly contribute my own part to Your project too - if there's only sth to be done - I feel very comfortable in more hard/heavy stuff like X or Loudness - or even Phantasmagoria in melodic sense - unfortunately/fortunately my forte is definitely guitar, next is piano/keyboard, and then the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looney 2 Posted July 22, 2014 Thanks a lot ^^ I have very high hopes about the project itself, but still - I'll need that dose luck - without doubt And again - thanks for the kind reply 1 lichtlune reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Looney 2 Posted July 25, 2014 Ok, I'll refresh the thread and specify it a little bit more after giving it some thought : The musicians I would like to work with and need in the mentioned long distance project are vocalist and synth programmer/someone skilled in electronic music and keyboard - I can cover all other instruments and functions, but those two are really essential - vocalist, because 'my own voice will do somehow' is not enough for me, I need someone who's main instrument is voice, and - without doubt - fresh ideas about lyrics and vocal lines - plus being aware of oneself's capabilities while composing is something that makes a huge difference (I'm pretty aware, that's why back vocals is where I usually stop ) And synth programmer - because I can play piano/keyboard and compose parts on those instruments, but have absolutely no experience with electronic music and synth toneshaping - and I very like that kind of parts in compositions Cheers, I hope that someone will share my enthusiasm and wanna participate in sth like this, doing it alone is half as fun as it should be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
