hey people. i've got something that might interest some of you.
i'm working for a radio station here in wales. and they've given me my own show where i'll be showcasing music written/performed buy disabled people. i'm fully awear that are some tallented singers and musicians here on the zone. so, if you have any material that you want to share, don't hesitate to send me a PQN or PM. and we can discuss things. don't worry if the quality isn't very good, i'm doing mostly unsigned performers. so i'm not expecting things to be recorded in a state of the art recording studio or anything like that. and also, don't worry if you think it's music i won't like. that isn't a factor. i'm not going on my own interests here. i just want to show people what can be done.

looking forward to hearing from some of you.

dan.

I'd be more than happy to do something with this. It sounds like fun. Only problem is, I haven't been able to write a song of my own yet. lol. Anyone got any ideas on that part? I can make up music just fine, it's just lyrics that stump me.

ok, better make this a bit clearer. it doesn't have to be your own material completely. if you've recorded covers as well, they'll do.

yeah I was gonna ask that! i have some recordings of me singing, (covers), but they're on tape. I'd love to do it, but I'll need to figure out a way to make my recordings with gold wave. Any help would be appreciated!
BTW, I learn quickly!

lyrics get me as well. I love to make music, just lyrics always don't come right away.

How cool. Is this an online station? I'd love to hear your show. I'd send you something but be aware that any glass you have around is most likely going to shatter once you play it. :p Yes. That is my talent. Breaking glass with my voice! heheheh

Aww thank you, Minh. I know you lied through your teeth/fingers but it's all good. I still love you! :p Yes. It should be great listening.

Hey dan, this sounds like a cool idea.
I do have some recordings of my friends and I, some are covers, but if u would like to here them, I could send u some

Post 13 by HauntedReverie (doing the bad mango) on Sunday, 11-Jan-2009 21:25:22

yeah Dan, if it's online, give up the goods. I want to listen.
And if anyone's looking for a lyric writer, I could give it a shot.

Post 14 by cumbiambera2005 (i just keep on posting!) on Sunday, 11-Jan-2009 21:42:56

yeah, i'm still working on mine, and would also be cool to listen too!

Post 15 by Gracesong (Zone BBS is my Life) on Monday, 12-Jan-2009 10:49:11

Sounds like fun!
Would you prefer them in .mp3 format?

Post 16 by Mumbledore (... procrastinating again. i meant to write this days ago.) on Thursday, 15-Jan-2009 2:26:30

thanks for the responses so far people.
first off, iris, i'm not too bothered what format there in. MP3 would be preferable, but if you have them in a different format, then it's ok.
secondly, for those who want to listen, we'll be going live in a couple of weeks with any luck. still not sure when this particular show will be as i don't yet have enough material. but i'll let you know.

dan.

Post 18 by Bedazzled (Generic Zoner) on Thursday, 15-Jan-2009 22:12:10

Well, I'm also another lyricist if you'd like some help, but ask Kala first. Word is that she's a really great writer.

Post 20 by Tarja (too buisy for life) on Thursday, 29-Jan-2009 22:28:28

if you r still doing this i'll do some stuff

Post 21 by Angel of Music (Phantom Flutist) on Sunday, 01-Feb-2009 5:01:42

Greetings,

I am very interested in this, to be honest. Dan, what did you mean by unsigned performers? That is my only question. I do have some things. Most are flute things and some are kinda lengthy. I have two decent vocals, well maybe three including a duet I created with another of one of my friends demos, that I can send you as well. I'll talk to you more about it on msn.

I am working on getting a home studio set up, or the beginnings of one anyway. I should be able to compose instrumental stuff for you, as instrumental stuff is my specialty, given my emphasis of study is in instrumental performance. But if I can get a good lyricist, hmm there's something to think about. I arrange as well, or will be able once I get stuff set up. Anyway, very good luck!

Most Sincerely,

Angel of Music

Well, the partially finished song that i've got up on this board could be given out to someone, after I'm finished with it, to arrange. I ahd some artistic ideas for it and was thinking of eletric guitars etc.
If anyone wants a crack at writing a melody for it, feel free to leave me a pm or pqn.

Post 23 by musicangel (Generic Zoner) on Friday, 06-Feb-2009 22:02:35

hmm this is something I would be interested in as well what kind of music do u prefer?

Post 24 by cumbiambera2005 (i just keep on posting!) on Saturday, 07-Feb-2009 6:24:44

Well, happy to say, the recording is on its way! Not quite, but processing...yay!

Post 25 by cumbiambera2005 (i just keep on posting!) on Tuesday, 17-Feb-2009 9:21:53

Well, as for an update on things, I've gotten a good way into the goldwave thing, and just now looking for some new material, but I have a recording in the process of coming out soon, just been so crazy! Are you still doing this thing?

Post 26 by Mumbledore (... procrastinating again. i meant to write this days ago.) on Sunday, 01-Mar-2009 21:39:08

hey people.

in answer to your question ash, yeah i'm still doing this, and need all the material i can get. like i said, don't worry too much about quality, as long as you can give me something i can air.

also, thanks to those who have already given me material. it's all greatly appreciated.

Dan.

Tighing in to this, there's a new Facebook group called Facebook's Got Talent. There'll be a competition starting soon, which will have prises! You tallented peeps out there should at least join, or better still, take part! It isn't just people from the Zone or blind community! This is completely open to anyone! Matt
