Hi there! Here's a fun initiative: Record an album (at least 20 minutes of music) before the end of November. Have a look at this site for the details: http://hmtpng.com/
from the site:
"Anyone can make music. Record yours in November 2011.
People think that only the talented or the beautiful should be able to make music. This is bullshit. Making music is something everybody can enjoy. And everybody has something worth making a noise about.
'Hometaping' is an annual effort to help as many people as possible to record an album of their own music in one month. It is a celebration of what happens when they do.
So if you can't sing but do anyway, you are Hometaping. If you're crap at the guitar but it makes you happy, you are Hometaping. If your saxophone makes you smile but your neighbours wince, you are Hometaping. If you're convinced your songs are intricate masterpieces, you are Hometaping. When you fearlessly press record, you are Hometaping."
I'm participating again this year and if you make music (at home) you should give it a go too. You could even combine it with Movember! Cheers, Emil

Please, leave the music-making to the talented and beautiful. We're better at it.

Awesome, there isn't enough low-quality music in the world.
I should know, I pump out enough of it.

I would be willing to collaborate with someone on this if you want... I have 16 years playing stringed instruments. Would be a fun garageband experiment.

I would like to make a correction to the original post:
Everyone cannot make music. Kim Kardashian is proof positive of that.

Hey Emil,
Thanks for posting Hometaping on here.
I'm Josh, one of the organisers. For the record, Emil's album last year was awesome, and what he won't tell you is that one of the tracks he recorded is currently in the Netherlands iTunes electronic chart. http://itunes.apple.com/us/album…
Just goes to show people of all abilities sign up to take part in Hometaping
