one day I’m actually going to grab everything I went through last year and pour it into a raritwi breakup fic where they don’t get back together and I don’t do my usual thing where I hint there’s hope for them
And I think that will probably be a very emotional and good fic but also it’ll probably be incredibly crushing more than anything Ive ever done so honestly maybe we should all be grateful I haven’t written it yet
#I’ve been listening to JP Saxe’s ‘A Little Bit Yours’#and i can feel it clawing at me#‘all i do is get over you and I’m so bad at it’#‘maybe if I’d said the right things it never would have gone this way’#‘but maybe that’s the problem cause I still kinda think it was up to me’#‘when I never could have made you stay’#rarity moves away from ponyville because everything is twilight#and she sees twilight just lock it out block it out put it away in a box and move on#and rarity can’t#and she tries#and tries#and a thousand miles away#in the dark of the night#the silence staring her down#she has to live with the idea that twilight got over her like that#that twilight probably already let go long long ago#and yet rarity is there knowing still she’d kill if twilight asked her to#and there’s no victory in that#no poetry or muse#no beauty#it’s just sad and pathetic and a masochism and so self centered#to cling to the hope that twilight still loves her or needs her when she knows it’s not true and it never will be#and the element of generosity wonders when her core got twisted#when generosity and caring and giving became erasing yourself for some pony else#and maybe one day it’ll stop#maybe one day she’ll be fine#but for now#she quietly makes peace with a simple fact#that even if twilight sparkle isn’t hers anymore and never will be again#at least for now rarity is still a little bit twilight’s

fun question, ty! for heinz, bei mir bist du schein. for perry, miss independent by kelly clarkson. very serious about both of these choices
#shut up and let me go. push the button by sugababes. various mountain goats songs such as swamp creature or sax rohmer#semirelated i just got to see john linnell perform 'mammal' live for the first time in 6 years and i freaked#apollo 18 is the most pnfcore tmbg album and how many songs shoutout monotremes?? not many. sry to the person next to me who i went off on#EDIT i have to mention will wood “better than the alternative” is SO doof tho its equally pshmirtz and charlene heartbreak. god

Hector singing a power ballad about love while facing off against achilles is not something I was expecting but it’s certainly not unwelcome
#I’m assuming he’s facing off against achilles#the thought is very funny 😭#achilles ‘no bargains between lions and men’ pelides covered in blood with murder in his eyes#and hector’s standing there like ‘wait! you gotta let this sax solo play first!’#THE SAXOPHONE SENT ME YOU DONT UNDERSTAND 😭#this is so cheesy but I love it so much#paris the musical#love has power#live blog

I miss playing saxophone. I would love to get back into it at some point. For a long time I stopped bc of apartment living, but then when I moved into a house I realized my sax was in pretty miserable shape after the years of marching band and humidity and rain and yeah. Now I share a wall with people again so it’d still be really loud if I got a new one lol.
I remember when I was in college I’d go to the music school building and play in a practice room whenever I wanted to practice outside of band. I guess maybe I could see if there’s somewhere like that again. I think it’d be fun, too, to join a community band again. Did that in the past as well and it was fun.
#by bug#I think it will be cool if I pick it up again and become an old lady who still plays sax#can’t even practice piano rn bc both it and my keyboard are at the house and I’m not mentally prepared to go there again yet#plus that piano is heavy as heck and again. loud#also tho speaking of sax and apartment living#I DID live next to another sax player at one point bc I would hear them#and one night we did a jam session thru the wall and that was so funny

psa to the musicians on here (yes even the ones who don’t think you’re skilled enough to count, you do, this is especially for you)
if you’re trying to cover a 5sos song and it’s turning out to be really hard?? it might not mean you’re bad at music. it might just be because their stuff (especially the recent stuff) is actually really complex for their genre, deceptively so, and I promise if you work your way up to it with some songs from literally any other pop artist you’ll be g. don’t doubt yourself
#musician thoughts#5sos#5 seconds of summer#like. the syncopation and the really random chords they throw in there not to mention vocals#and often there’s a lot happening with drums and bass and guitar#did you know there’s a sax on blender?? it’s things like that#and they do wild stuff with synths too these days; swap out electric drums with live drums at random point but like. do this with bass too#it’s okay if you can’t figure it all out first go. I promise you’ll only learn to appreciate music more

what do i have to do to get Joanna Newsom fans to listen to Shabaka and his recent solo debut album Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge Its Grace. what do i have to sell who do i have to bribe pls brethren he is right there
#joanna newsom#ys#shabaka#shabaka hutchings#perceive its beauty acknowledge its grace#ok so. story time. first came across Shabaka while he was still in Sons of Kemet (aka before he retired from the sax for the#forseeable future) and absolutely f*cked with that sh*t. i mean F*CKED with it bc look. he's Bajan. he's cranking out some serious#Afro-Caribbean jazz during his time there the polyrhythms are f*cking on point etc etc#tucked that sh*t away in my Spotify library didn't think much of it. then i heard he was retiring from sax to focus on other instruments#and went '??????' bc yk. Shabaka. sax. kind of inseparable. he did it anyway for his mental health's sake and i'm proud of him#but then. THEN he dropped the first single off of this album on us back in February and i lost it. then he dropped the second#in March and the third in April with he and Moses Sumney i. good God just take me already nah#by the time it dropped on April 12 a day after the Sumney drop i was locked tf in. like it has been on rotation with some of my#other favorites since but anyway. only recently i realized while loading it up again that 'hey this sounds like something Joanna#would put out' and lo and behold. he says it right there that's exactly why it sounds like that brethren. pls. listen to the entire#thing for me pls. the last track called 'Song of the Motherland' features his father performing a spoken word piece and lives#inside my head rent free now. sorry. if this haunts me then it must haunt you too i don't make the rules

Me knowing FULL WELL I don’t have $1000 for a cello: but what if 👀
#hey shatters? what if you fucking got good at the two and half to three and a half instruments you have (access to) already?!?#this is. a decades long debate#bc before I couldn’t bc too expensive.#and it still is especially bc I can’t hold the bow properly so I’d need lessons#and idk if anyone still does them locally anymore since the local music school closed years ago and they retired I think?#but uhhh#what’s the point of working and living at home if not to spend money on stupid things that bring you joy?#no? it’s to save money for rainy days and maybe move out one day?? anyway#ACTUALLY ADDING THAT A NON WOODWIND OR WIND INSTRJMENT WOULD BE SO NICE FOR WHEN IM SICK OR POSSIBLY SICL#BC I CANT KN GOOD FAITH PUT MY LIPS ON MY FLUTE OR SAX UNTKL MUMS BETTER SND I CANT GET SICK FROM MY PARENTS#AND I WANT TO MAKEEEEE NOISEEEEE

I don't remember snickerdoodles but I do remember dropping everything we were in the middle of doing to show you a Benny Hill end credits gag
oh right. you were appalled that I was a brit who didn't know it XD
(yakety sax my beloved)
the snickerdoodles were a small thing (and may in fact not have been you but I'm deciding it was because I want to), but were the cause of me thinking "oh what a funny fake food name" for either months or years before someone found the opportunity to tell me "you know those are real, right?"
#falderal speaks#yakety sax lives rent free in my head now which I think we can both agree is the ideal state of things

⌖ HI, HEY, HELLO! IT’S ME, hi, I’m the problem, IT’S ME, SIMULCASTING LIVE ON AIR and LIVE ON CAMERA! I almost NEVER DO THAT! Are YOU tired of scam calls? I SURE AM! Let’s make these CLOWNS our little APRIL FOOLS! TUNE IN for WILD IMPROV, VOICE ACTING, SCAMMER MALDING, and COVERS OF THE SCAMMER PAYBACK SOUNDTRACK! ALL DAY!
#// gonna drop context in the TAGS!#scambaiting is exactly what it sounds like! you bait scammers. for example pretending to be a potential victim to waste their time. some#people can go further and get their info to report to authorities or reverse connection into their computer and mess up their operations.#Al's goal here is to improv some insane scenarios (see link for an example) and have fun wasting these clowns' time so they can't make money#(this also saves victims but she is fueled mostly by pettiness and spite bc she hates robocalls)#they do get raging tho and she is gonna have so much fun making them rage. she has her own creative insults too.#(first link is long (but worth it) but the second two videos are short)#Her focus is improv but pls remember that she's pretty techliterate (like... her operating system is a linux and she set the hotel network#up with pihole to block all ads on the network) so she is running a virtual machine in case some scammer asks to remote into her computer.#Also! Scammer Payback is a scambaiter with a large following. He collabed with musicians to make a soundtrack. The songs pass as love songs#and stuff but they're about scammers/scamming/scambaiting and it's great. It's Al energy.#Anyway she VERY RARELY goes live on camera bc she dislikes being on camera in real time as there's no editorial control#but this is the sort of thing she wants to be on camera for! she's also broadcasting.#So. Lots of fun improv with live music between calls. It'll be fun. You'll get to see her make music live. Live looping and live instruments#(I don't think city lights & rain on me are officially part of the soundtrack. it's just the same artists collabing. but they have good sax#solos and I think april fool's is The day for Al to unironically refer to herself as h*rny in a song.)#⌖ online#⌖ hellfie#OH! THE FIREARM! I had drafted Al doing an iconic moment from a pengu*nz0 video and decided to use it for this.#She has that bisexual lighting going on too. It's to match the vaporwave music and also bc it's classic youtube.

thinking about rinne playing saxophone with the people who record their backing tracks
#IM HAVING A CRAZYB MOMENT IM SORRY#i think he would also play trumpet#since he was a smaller idol before being put in crazyb i like to think he was more involved in the song creation process#so he had to learn the basics of like. lyric writing and composition and stuff#and learned saxophone and trumpet bc there are sooooooo many jazz influences on their music now#i was talking to lis too abt how he and niki probably did some busking and saxophone is easier to do that with#than trumpet anyway. so like. i feel like rinne at a live show would break out the saxophone and do an improv solo or smth#during be the party bee? or any of their other songs with a heavy sax base#and the crowd goes wilddddddddd#okay im done! im done. for now#shay speaks#rinne amagi

#by bug#my mom gave me her old one a few years back and got it fixed up#I was very bad about practicing tho#feels bad but I got out of the habit doing a lot of music-related stuff bc of living in an apartment for so long#I was always like. don’t wanna annoy neighbors#it was easier when I was at college and the music building had practice rooms/I was actively in band and orchestra#I’ve been trying to play piano more now tho and I miss playing my sax so fucking much but#it needs some work or to be replaced entirely rip#violin tho…I have it…it’s just waiting to be loved…#I could be loving it
