[HEADING=2]The Escapist Jam Session[/HEADING]​

Welcome to the Escapist Jam Session, a thread where members are able to upload videos of themselves playing music to show the whole community their talent or just to have fun doing so. This thread is designed for people to enjoy being able to play their favorite song for an audience, a chance to record music and put it up on the internet for others to see, to listen to something new and most importantly - to have fun doing so! So please, I encourage all members of this site who enjoy playing music to record videos and put them up, I'm sure you'll enjoy doing so and will be met with an overwhelmingly positive response.

[HEADING=1]Rules of This Thread[/HEADING]

1. You're going to need a youtube account in order to post videos. Unless someone else knows another way to upload videos onto this site with ease, you're going to have to create a youtube account in order to upload videos of yourself. Videos can be linked using: [ youtube= your video key ] (where your video key is the code after v= on youtube and there is no space between the words and the square brackets).

2. Audio links are also fine. If you don't want to link a video then we'd love to hear what you can do just with some audio backing. I'm not sure how to link audio files yet though, so if someone is able to let me know that would be fantastic!

3. Only post videos of yourself, or your band if you have their permission to do so. This is especially important. This thread is a community thread where the community can show off their individual talents, not someone elses. Basically, if it's not of you, don't post it.

4. No flaming. This should be obvious, but please don't denegrate other members videos. Constructive criticism is fine, after all part of the reason we're doing this is to enjoy ourselves and to improve our skills, not be paid out for what we've done.

5. All videos will be accesible via this opening post (or the next one as we're quickly going over our character limit). I'll put everyone who post's videos up on here to make it easier for people to access them.

6. Enjoy yourselves! This site is quite musically talented from what I've seen, so please, feel free to post videos of yourself for others to see. We'd love to see what you can do!

I want to see the videos! said:
Due to technical difficulties, the videos were moved to a different post. If you click the quote, you will be taken to their new location! Or you could just scroll down.
Your choice! (Edit: Thanks for that sarcasm Neonbob!)
[HEADING=2]The Escapist Band[/HEADING]​

As this thread has evolved it has become a place where members have gotten together in order to produce music by each contributing their own part and having it mixed together into a song. Currently we're still in the 'working things out' stage, but with enough support we're going to be able to make our own band with songs produced by people from all over the globe.

The current list of members interested is as follows:

Inverse Skies (piano, violin) Organiser
Ravens_nest (vocals, bass) Mixer
Sexual Harrasment Panda (guitar)
ShredHead (guitar)
Chrono_break (acoustic guitar, electric bass, and vocals)
Guitarmasterx7 (guitar... no surprises!)
Zombie_Fish (drums)
300lb.samoan (drums)
Quirkytamborine (guitar)
melaszepheos (guitar)
zen5887 (bass) )- with apologies!
Plaintwo (drums, bass)
Aquascension (guitar)
Battleonion (guitar, bass)
Labyrinth (vocals, electric violin)
Hentmas (spanish vocals)
handofpwn (bass, guitar)
Conner42 (guitar)
Lord Krunk (vocals, clarinet, piano)
Viper1265 (tenor sax)
Popfadoo (guitar)
Asciotes (guitar)
SantoUno (guitar, other instruments)


As more information becomes available I'll start organising people into bands and make links to the songs they produce. If you'd like to join, please either PM me or write on here and we'll see what we can do.

Special Thanks to Neonbob, for his help in keeping this thread updated and support, and ravens_nest for organsing the Escapist Band.

[HEADING=2]So enjoy! Show the Escapist what you can do![/HEADING]

Curses!
If I had any musical talent to speak of, I'd be in...
But as it is, I'm going to be watching this thread intently!
I can't wait to see some of our talented people!

Hey, just came to my head. Might be worth giving people the option to just record their music and not require that they add it to a video. It'd be easier, and less downloads.

Aww, I don't have any musical talent to share. But I have a felling this thread is going to be good.

I hope this meets the grade, your piano playing was pretty nice...way to set the bar high in the first post...bastard.
Not amazing, but it's of my own composition.

Clearly I can't follow your embedding instructions properly.
Lol, sorry it's brackets around the whole thing, not just the adress! And you only need the code after the v= to make it work.

Cool thread. I'll make some vids and post 'em up soon :)
Thankyou Nivag, I'm interested to hear what your band sounds like, or just you shredding on the guitar in general!

You got it! That's awesome! I loved it! It reminded me of something which I can't quite put my finger on now... the opening guitar was great, nice theme throughout. Thanks for contributing!

I've written so much music over the years that I've been considering selling it on Amazon...they claim they have a flourishing independant artists section. I got my first taste of public performing a couple of nights ago as well...open mic night. I played a few of my tunes, felt as though I was terrible due to being ridiculously nervous. But they made a big fuss over me afterwards...I even signed an autograph which was pretty embarassing. I would love to quit my job and make a go of being a musician...I seriously lack confidence.

You seemed very good to me, much better than I am on the piano anyway. Perhaps if some people like what you've done on here it'll give you some confidence that what you're writing is good stuff and you should pursue your dream?
