How many musicians we got here on Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

Music discussion is very lacking here for. Compared to reddit. And yeah I know, 'just post then'. But when I search for music communities here they're empty. And it makes sense because no-one is posting. So kind of a catch 22.

now i dont exactly know how all this lemmy stuff works but... to all you musos out there, can you join me and search for music under communities (I'm using summit app) and just at a minimum subscribe to all the ones that you would be interested in(if they were popping off)?

At least that way when one of us posts, the rest of us will actually see it (I suspect).

Anyway. Keep making the world more fun for everyone else.

P.s if your not a musician, but you like golf or something, subscribe to the golf communities even if they're empty.

I used to play saxophone, clarinet and flute for years, but then I moved to Australia and I didn't bring any of them with me. They're expensive here, too, so I can't bring myself to buy another..

Though now I have an Irish low whistle, I haven't had a chance to really get in to it because of changing jobs, moving houses, etc etc. The lack of buttons is challenging.

I admit, though, I have a longing to just get back in to a community band again just to be surrounded by music again.

You in Melbourne? What kind of music do you like listening to?

[–] StickyDango@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

Sure am. I listen to a lot of different genres and it really depends on my mood and the sound of the song. I can't pinpoint any specific type of music, even my partner is confused. Now I've just been listening to 80s and 90s Elton John, Shania Twain, etc for nostalgia.. But I'll listen to pop, rock, metal, heavy metal, Irish trad, folk, calm instrumental music, occasional j-pop, jazz,..
