Steem Collaborative Music - #steem-jamm - The First Jamm !
Hello Steemit Comunity !!!
As I suggested in this post, I want to play music with steemians in a collaborative mood. So here is the post for launching the first #steem-jamm !
We are a lot interested by making music with steem ! Now we should discuss how we arrange our-self. I recommend to use chainBB, it's a forum-like steem client. Useful design for discussions !
I propose for this first jamm to do something simple. Bass, guitar and piano players could talk about what rhythm section they want to play, then the melodic instruments add their licks on the montage. Finally, the computers guys can mix, mastering and put some little fluffy effects.
We could share video and audio files directly on comments like that peoples can upvote all little part of our job. We can also record many times while the work is in progress like that we can refine our parts.
Because we are numerous, we should discuss a lot about who play when. We could also directly start many little jamms in littles teams and later make a big big one all together.
What do you think about that ? I think we can do a lot of awesome stuff once we learned how to work together so don't hesitate to develop the idea with me ! You can use the #steem-jamm tag freely for start your own steem jamms !
Freely share your suggestions on style or genre, tempo, and tonal center or key or whatever you think is appropriate to get the discussion moving forward.
Actual suggestions
-@tfeldman suggest the key of C
-@soushi888 suggested @bilbop record while ~2 minutes a bass line in the key C.

soon as a full track is in place and a vocal is ready to be layed down you let me know and we can go from there on a vocal. We can get someone to collaborative lyrics or i can do that part as well, but would be very interesting to get a steemit poet on board for lyrics ...
Keep a look on @bilbop posts. He's gonna play a bass line for the #steem-jamm ! It will give us a tone and the base of the mood ! Don't hesitate to be inspired !
Let's see all together on his new post what come next.
We should create a post for asking poet and drummer too !

I'm ready to lay down a groove or embellish it with some lowdown tugboat melody. he he
Hey. I know a great drummer, been trying to get him on steemit. I'll see if it will shake out.
We could start with a bass line. Record something and just tell us your chords. Loop your chord progression for 2 minutes and we'll build on it ! I'll add piano and a bit of sax (I'll let the place for the violins and vocals)
Very cool, maestro.
As i'm pondering details let's head over to #steem-jamm on
chainBB to discuss particulars.
I believe it's best to start at a basic level so everyone is able to participate before we drag them kicking and screaming through some bebop changes. he he
Just kidding, of course
I'm New to steemit and that seems like a pretty cool idea.
Yeah ! Thank you ! Do you play an instrument or do you sing ? You're welcome in the project if you want !
I used to but not anymore but im interested to see what happens with this.
meep
Wondering if there is any drummer? so we can make the full thing...
Not yet... We should ask for ! I guess in the meantime a computer guy could put a rhythm box.
I can make the MIDI drums, but i am pretty positive there is a drummer around!...
Sure ! If the drummer don't come by himself, I can create a "Wanted" Steem-jamm post :p
Sounds good let's keep it easy. Key of C!
Haha. Not yet the atonal jamm :p
No not yet but it is possible in the future :) Let me know when and where to rap
I am pretty busy but let me know what to do on this chat site and I'm willing to play a rhythm on guitar and maybe a little lick on violin
Just signed up on chainBB. Let me know what to do from there.
Nice ! I just asked to @bilbop to record a bass line and to give us the chords. You can add a rythm guit on it and then we can share some melodics lines with sax and violin !
Sounds good!
Cool!!! I never thought of a STEEM jam.
Thank you, now I can add to my addiction.
You are welcome to join us if you want !
