Thinking of forming a synth pop band (1 Viewer)

[Alan Remorse]

unlikely i'll find the people for this here but hey
numbers, koufax, anniversary, mates of state
anybody interested PM me
moog owners especially welcome

 

[transmit]

ive got a groovebox and a cool hairdo, will that do?

 

[Richie]

You forgot the "no time wasters" bit... you don't want to be in a synth pop band full of time wasters do you?

 

[classic seanc]

Sometimes I'm ironic, can I join?

 

[ratmonkey]

Is this your Oxbow stylee thing?

 

[Osama Van Halen]

IF IT'S CALLED...SYNTHIA PLASTERCASTER.. I'M IN

ALLAHQUAAANNDONG!!

 

[glen]

You just want someone to whore a moog off of off.

 

[plug]

I've got a korg polysix that I can't play, will that do?

 

[Alan Remorse]

seems to be going well so far anyway.

 

[Alan Remorse]

Is this your Oxbow stylee thing?

nah, that's another thing that i'm doing with noel from [r]ev
we jammed last thursday, was deadly actually

 

[plug]

I'd actually be into this. seriously. I think.

that's if you need someone to play drumz.

 

[Anthony]

i can play acoustic guitar

 

[Junglebob]

What kinda stuff, Devo, or crazy stuff like that or cheesy 80's-tastic stuff like Go West and so on??

 

[HMD]

I've a Moog t-shirt with a midi upgrade

 

[Alan Remorse]

I'd actually be into this. seriously. I think.

that's if you need someone to play drumz.

you play drums? do you have your own kit?
just to be clear, i'm looking for a drummer, keyboardist and a girl singer

if you need an idea of what i'm looking for here are some mp3s of bands i'd like to sound like

The Anniversary: http://media.lawrence.com/mp3/music/2004/theanniversary-all_things_ordinary.mp3

Mates Of State: http://www.epitonic.com/artists/matesofstate.html

Robocop Kraus: http://www.lado.de/mp3s/TheRobocopKraus_FreeMasonsInTheHouse.mp3
http://www.therobocopkraus.de/music/i paid the ferryman.mp3
http://www.therobocopkraus.de/music/gestures of slight grandeur.mp3
http://www.dayafter.cz/mp3/Day32-The Dead Seri.mp3

dont tell eirecore though

 

[plug]

I certainly do. it's yellow.

wow, robocop kraus flashback. saw 'em in rimlick years ago! deadly..

 

[Alan Remorse]

yeah, robocop kraus rule... that gig in freds is still in my all time top five gigs
a mix of lali puna and robocop kraus would be kinda what i'd be going for
would you be interested in jamming sometime? how long you been playing drums?

 

[plug]

tend to be busy now and then making posters and other misc shit in the evening times but yeah, definitely. been playing for, dunno, about ten years on and off. ah, faded memories of youth..

other info: know a bit about software, synths etc. (doesn't everybody..) but I can't write a song for shit. I can however make a right racket when I put my mind to it!

 

[Alan Remorse]

dont worry bout the song writing part, it'll all work out in jamming.. i've loads of stuff written anyway so we can start with that and see how it goes

most important thing in this is finding a keyboardist that i've a good chemistry with and who has a good understanding of this style of music.
i'm not into people who have grade 8 piano training, cos people like that will inevitably just want to wank and show off.
just want someone who will do what's necessary to make a good song.
have had a moog obsession for about 7/8 years now, so hoping to find someone who's into that shit too

 

[plug]

I hear ya. last time I jammed with someone who was a classically trained pianist (they were playing keyboard) it was a fucking joke... they kept jerking about and when the rest of us settled into any kind of groove, he'd just "get bored" and stop playing. annoying!

are there many k/b players around cork? you don't see many. I'll keep me eye out! anyway, PM me anytime about this.
