Default Hello there.

Hello there!

I stumbled upon this forum while scavenging the internet for decent music forums and now, as I may stick around for a while, it seems only logical that I properly introduce myself to you guys.

I'm Mr. Sir, but my friends usually call me 'dude'. I'm extremely fond of music, especially metal, and play toys through circuit bending, cello, flute, analog synthesizers and mandolin. Other hobbies of mine are chess and aikido.

I should also mention communicating with me might turn out to be quite difficult because English is only my fourth language. I'll do my best though

Aaaand that was my introduction. If you have any questions, ask away!

Welcome. I think you'll enjoy this forum. You sound like an eclectic dude, Mr. Sir. Your English could put some of my English monoglot friends to shame. What is your native language?

Did I run onto the set of Holes again? Where's Shia Labeouf?

Thank you!

If I exclude all metal bands and classical composers, which I will since fatigue tends to drain the capability of excessive typing, this would be rough sketch of favorite bands/artists: Swans, Kraftwerk, White Suns, Pink Floyd, SQÜRL, Portishead, Sleep Party People, Cocteau Twins, Sonic Youth, The Jesus Lizard, Fleetwood Mac, Kashiwa Daisuke, DNA, Skinny Puppy, etc.

Nice on a good portion of that. If you don't want to go into all the metal you listen to, then what genres do you dig? Maybe the band highlights from each one?

Nice mix there, and I was just listening to Acid Bath not even five minutes ago. Kind of obsessed with When the Kite String Pops ATM. Also props on Ringworm. Been really getting into old school metalcore recently, and I've been playing them pretty heavily (also some Snapcase, Arkangel, Converge, Botch, Unbroken, and I'm finally getting into Integrity).

You should check out this thread. The guy who runs it is a genius.
