First Post!

So...some of you may be wondering why I'm starting another blog. Well, truth is, the last one didn't work out too well. Let's just say that I don't have much patience spending my time emphasizing insignificant details of my life for entertainment. Sure, I did have a few posts there that were somewhat interesting, but I kinda just got bored of it. Enough said.

Anyway, if you are a friend or family member, you may be aware that I write music. Many people know I am a composer, but few have witnessed it. Even those who have heard me play a song or two or have seen my Youtube channel don't know that I compose new stuff almost every week. Unfortunately, this is my fault. I've been kind of a hermit composer for the last few years, but I'm trying to change that now.

So this is the plan. I'm going to be posting on this blog at least once a week from now on. A post could be anything from a thought I had on music or a favorite song to my own musical idea or even a full composition. I already have some material to post, so there should be more content added in the next week or so. All I ask of you as the reader is that you post your opinion on my work. Please, do not be afraid to say whatever you think. A bad critique is better than none in my opinion. All I need is a good idea of what people think about a song or idea so I can pursue projects that are close to the listener. Cause if music doesn't please the listener, what is the use for music anyway?

Anyway, if you got this far, I give you my thanks. Any support of my musical projects are invaluable to me. I am hoping to someday pursue a career or a side job in music, so this means everything to me. This is what I love to do, and I hope you can see that in my music.

Sincerely yours,
Matthew

  1. Awesome! I can't wait to hear some more of your music. Don't you (or didn't you) have a website or something?

  2. Thanks Carson! I do have a website, but I abandoned it a few years ago. The website was a bit stiff and kind of hard to work with. I prefer using a blog because of its informality and flexibility. Also, websites are more for already established artists while I am just developing.
