Happy new year!
qq: is there any song that I have already covered that you want to see a tutorial created on? Otherwise, I’ll be doing them in no particular order.

If you like what you see, feel free to comment and Like the video. I would like to create community on my channel from all the music I love.
I would also really love to quit my job to focus on this instead.

All right, good news: I finally got my tripod about a week ago after being lost in the mail for who knows how long. Also got some updated headphones. What I remember from the last time that I used to record tutorials, was that having open back headphones and talking into the microphone would create this crazy echo/delay. Now I have closed back headphones so that should get rid of that. Now I’m just going to work on figuring out setting up my microphone with my DAW (hopefully that’ll be easier this time around compared to what I used to use) as well as trying to figure out how I want to set up this tripod for an overhead view of my piano while teaching.

I’ll keep you posted as I figured this out. It’s been a while.

I’ve been made aware that there might be some sheet music that gets interpreted as ass by the time I upload the midi to convert to sheet music lmao
listen, I’m sorry in advance about that outcome but I don’t read sheet music. I just uploaded the file and hope for the best. To those that can only read sheet music, once YouTube is a full time gig for me, I’ll just pay someone to accurately interpret the sheet music. Until then, we’ll have to just deal 😭 there’s always the opportunity to learn from my tutorials when I start uploading them though, but again, you won’t be “classically trained” by me, as, I play by ear.

I’m excited to get my set/tech together to do some tutorials of what I have played, to show you that it’s really easy. Just finished laughing looking at a Synthesia because I thought to myself “I see how this can look impossible once you get to a certain spot in a song,” but I’m pretty confident in my teaching skills, especially these days.

On my old YouTube channel, I had hundreds of tutorials. No one commented on them or anything like that, outside of making an additional request, but when I privated all my videos, many asked for me to unprivate them; and one comment stuck out with me the most because they explained how simplified my teaching is compared to everybody else. When I first read that comment years ago, I didn’t think that at all. I thought that because I wasn’t explaining anything in a classical sense, due to me not being able to read music, that people would be better off. (How f*cking silly lmao)

Many years later, I feel different in life. (this is similar to my post about how I feel regarding taking requests)/ which is simultaneously me coming into being an artist/myself/spiritual awakening, etc.

Since I will stick to what I’m playing, those will be the only songs that I will make tutorials for. I will continue to put my mental health first by doing this. Not sure how far back I will go in regards to tutorials because I don’t think I remember how to play some of these songs lmao but we’ll see. It’s really all just dependent on my mood.

(Playing = piano)

P.S: I’m *so* confident in my teaching skills that I won’t have to even teach you an “easy medium or hard version.” You can just learn what I’m playing.

around 10 songs are WIP.
Three complete so far.

And these songs are fucking fire.
There’s such an urge to upload and share, but part of me also wants to finish it and share at once. Actually not sure when this would be complete cause I am going on complete vibes, per usual but a bit slower than that. If I’m not in the mood to create my song, I won’t continue. Perfectionism, no; I just can hear my thoughts at the time of recording when listening to my music, so I damn sure don’t want to hear “rushed.”

Anyway, do yall want to hear another song from the next EP?

Ordered a new tripod. This one should be tall enough to cover overhead view points, so I can start doing tutorials.
Thank you for your patience.

My S88 has been out of commission for two months and I’ve been playing on my PX-S1000; and wow, these keys are so heavy and taking the life out of me.

Native Instruments finally restocked on their power supply, so I’ll be back on my S88 soon. (Why is this a thing to run out of stock on, is beyond me.)

I’ve made some improvisational/arrangements (I said what I said 😭) but they require fast movements/shit ton of notes, and the S1000 keys tires me to the point of not being able to complete without fatigue and an unnecessary amount of mistakes; overall, making playing the piano pretty miserable. Hence, no recording.

I’m excited to show you what’s in store once I get these wires😩

On a more personal note, my adhd paralysis stopped me from ordering the wires sooner, cause I was contemplating on getting my hybrid piano, but I’ll wait a little longer.

May I ask why you subscribed to me? Was it due to my piano arr/covers/and improv? Was it my own music? Just curious.

Anyway, thanks for being here!
