Just a reminder that if your 25 or older and still play music

Jeff Mangum didn't release his first album until age 26. Nice neuroticism though.

nigga i have a job i make music in my free time and in my head during work

>tfw music legends made their masterpieces at a young age

there's still hope

Leonard Cohen didn't get started until 30 something... Granted he was also a talented writer and made something of himself first.

>>75007214
pretty sure that making music and "being a part of society" whatever the fuck you mean by that aren't mutually exclusive. Are you telling that people that aren't making millions should get a day job? if so gee willikers you're stating the obvious.

>>75007214
Why is he called the human serviette? What does it mean?

>>75008171
HE SERVES THE YOUTH

Reference to The Cramps song Human Fly and because the word serviette is more Canadian sounding than Napkin

>believing people play music exclusively to "make it"

nice try bub but not everyone is as shallow as you

>implying that you should make music to "make it"

If you're seriously just making music to get famous or something, then you should just stop because I guarantee that the music you make is disingenuous bullshit that only impressionable teens or human trash will listen to. Anyone who has made it, makes music because they love to. Making it is simply a product of their dedication for what they love.

>just a reminder your only worth as a person is if the rest of society has decided to give you money for arbitrary reasons

cool

I made shitty shovelware drone/ambient music from the ages of 12 to 17 but now, at the age of 21, I'm just now having the spark to make a "serious" record. So I guess I have four years to "make it?" But in my mind, making it just means finally making the music I wish I had the ability to make all those years ago. Not about commercial success.

yeah but those works clearly have a young adult mindset to them, they never made something which will resonate in their listeners for decades. you only get that once you're mature and experienced with life i.e. jazz musicians, composers

>>75008851
this combination of image and text is exactly what I needed, thanks. gonna work on my ep tomorrow

>jazz resonating with people
>fucking jazz

>>75007214
what if you get a stable well paying job and continue to make music in your free time?

>>75009279
I ain't taking this bait mr phoen postre.

>>75008456
Yeah, and then they never released anything else of worth. An album which is pretty good, great opener and closer and everything else is okay for the most part.

>>75010706
That's David Thomas you're talking to, show some respect.

>making music for anything but a hobby

Get a fucking life. You'll never go anywhere. Just have fun making music

>>75007214
