MUSIC: FROM MY NEIGHBOURS POINT OF VIEW

in Q Inspired-by-Music3 years ago (edited)

Hello guys!

20211205_143719.jpg

I was going through my feeds as I came online not quite long and I saw this post from a very good friend of mine @ksam.
I stopped to read and I enjoyed it.

However, I had to slide in his dm to ask him more about this which actually led to me participating too. I trust it's sure gonna be fun!
I used his questions as a guide for my post anyways!

ARE YOU A MUSICIAN OR DO YOU HAVE A NEIGHBOUR THAT IS A MUSICIAN

Yes I am a musician that really have passion for music. I play the piano, guitar drums and I sing too.
I had passion for music ever since I've been a child!

I started with drums, which I really have passion for as my first instrument.
However, my drive for music has brought me this far to be able to reply this question confidently that "I am a musician"

Well, it's such a pity that I don't have a neighbour that is a musician. How I wish I do, it'll have been fun lol..
They are the academic types.
Especially my next door neighbour, she lives a triangle life.
From school to church to her house that's why I called it a triangle based life!

These are the musical kits with me here.

That's my acoustic guitar.
I use her in most of my musical posts!

Mehn!!
She produces quality sound that so yummy.
I score songs with her.

I score songs with this earbuds most of the time... most especially when I don't want to disturb people around me with the loud sound of my sound box!

DOES SOMEONE IN YOUR CLOSE FAMILY PLAY AN INSTRUMENT

Wow, this question is such an interesting one.
How should I start? Well, It's only my sister that plays drums.

I started putting her through in the year 2019 / 2020 before the pandemic "covid19"
She really learnt fast and was good to some extent before before she left Nigeria for Europe!

Meet my sister

It's so funny I'm the only one that's musically loaded in my family.
Lol.

IS IT DIFFICULT TO LISTEN MANY TIMES TO THE PRACTICING SESSIONS?

It's always fun to some extent and it becomes boring when I find it real difficult to score the song.

But then, when scoring a song, I like adding my own signature to make the song a bit unique from the original song.

Even most time when I'm learning fills from drums, I get some likely inspiration and add it to mine to make my drum fills unique!

This is the drums I practice with most of the times

And this is me in 2021 trying to score a song with the choir in the church.
I was looking tired though. I've tried over and over. "I hope you'll be able to notice the tiredness from the side view

20220411_142638.jpg

You did notice right?

IS IT NICE? DO YOU FIND JOY IN THAT?

Yes I do!

I find joy.... just that if it gets so intense, I might get bored!

DID YOU HAVE SOME FUNNY MOMENTS?

Yes I do!

Some years ago, I guess in 2017, i was invited to play drums for a large musical concert!

The sound engineer got me frustrated though, So I continued with arrangement of the drums and sound check before the main event started.
The drums was positioned on a stage that is so noticeable.

So as the main concert started, the choir mounted the stage to sing.
Not knowing to me that the drum sit isn't balanced!
As I made attempt to sit, you know the rest..... I fell like a ripe mango!
I was embarrassed! Lol. "A day I won't forget though"

HAS SOMEONE EVER COMPLAINED TO YOU IF YOU STUDY YOUR MUSICAL INSTRUMENT?

Well, my mom and I used to fight almost every times. Because, most of the times when I try practicing the drums, it disturbs her and even the neighbour.

Our church is so close to the house, so I take time to practice there, but whenever I start, it's always a tug of war between myself and my mother.

Asides that, my aunt would say "you sound like a frog" whenever I try rehearsing vocals!
Well, I didn't give up.
And here I am today still doing my best.

MAYBE YOU ARE NOT A MUSICIAN, EITHER HAVE A MUSICIAN NEIGHBOUR, BUT YOU LIKE TO LISTEN TO LOUD MUSIC?

No!!!

I don't like listening to music so loud.
As loud as my music box is, I haven't increased it to the highest before!

image.png

WHAT WAS THE WILDEST THING YOU MADE IN YOUR FLAT, BOTHERING THE NEIGHBOURS?

I was told all of a sudden from the fellowship in my school that I'll be leading the praises!
Unfortunately, I wasn't online when the message came in on WhatsApp plus the fact that I was asleep late in the evening.

As I woke up to pee in the middle of the night, I saw this message and I really had to prepare.
So i plugged in my earphones and boom, I started singing out loud..... unknowing to me that I was disturbing my neighbours!

image.png

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE MUSIC YOU LISTEN TO VERY LOUDLY?

I love listening to "Beggie Beggie by Ayra Star"

I so much love that music mehn!

image.png

HAS SOMEONE CALLED THE POLICE?

No!!

I don't think anyone will, not in Nigeria.

image.png

WHAT DO YOUR NEIGHBOURS LISTEN TO, AND DO YOU LIKE IT

My neighbours, especially my next door neighbour listens to gospel music most especially "Tasha Cobbs"

And it edifys!

Don't mind me jare, it is my passion for music that caused it... lol.

I think drums are my least favourite instrument. They only sound good when the person knows what they're doing, otherwise, it's a hella noise.

Exactly you are right.

Only if the drummer is good!

My church made it even worse, we don't use musical instruments so going to learn elsewhere is now tiring... Thanks for sharing Brother, your content was awesome 😇😇
