PollyUnpluggedSo is it only tech talk on here, or do you chat about other thingemajings too?
@jankoekepan for a moment there I thought you were from Amsterdam! I see you performed somewhere between Portland and Seattle. Nice ..!
@jankoekepan My Dutch is non existent but I've been to Amsterdam last year and it was the most awesome place, ever. Dat weet ik goed.
I am not 100% keen on Marijuana. Though I honestly believe there is good in it, I do know of mental conditions where it is not good to use it.
But that is besides the point - do you have a youTube handle? So that I could listen to your music?
@jankoekepan I have never done weed, ever. We we're going to last year in Amsterdam but just never got to it. You're music is good - I never thought it would be such art when I started searching for it, so kudos to you ... it is of a higher level.
@jankoekepan - I am unfortunately not sure what anti-prohibition means but I presume that you prefer things that are not prohibited?
I wanted to try it in Amsterdam purely because I never have and heard so many things about it - when I said we did not get around it, it mabe was not an honest answer. I decided not to when I realized that someone close to me would see an example that could not be afforded for deeper reasons.
I don't do drugs but for medicinal value when really needed.
@jankoekepan the moment someone puts a ban on something, rebellion is born.
The best way to describe myself, would be with your music. Perhaps free soul - perhaps with sound, a diver diving the depths of an ocean exploring.
Years ago I received a keyboard and started making music very similar - ahead of my time, it wasn't understood.
@jankoekepan It will always be awesome - thank you for suggesting it. I'll get myself a keyboard soon. I play guitar, but very basic.
Before the end of apartheid - apartheid should never have been. It saddens me in many ways.
Jan KoekepanSmaak vir my ons is van dieselfde generasie.
Nogtans was dit ook 'n les vir die we^reld - oftewel diegene wat wil luister.
If you want a good keyboard, I can make some recommendations. Guitar was my first instrument, but keyboards are a more natural choice for synthesiser-driven music, which is naturally my style these days.
If you want to hear a little guitar blended in with the rest of my music, may I propose:

It, too, was recorded live.

@jankoekepan dit klink vir my so! Ja, dit was 'n goeie les. Soos ek netnou gesê het - verbanning broei rebellie.
I will welcome all your input, thank you so much! Thing is - guitar is fine for when I have visitors and want to entertain, or when we picnic and I keep my mind busy, or when I take someones poetry and put music to it. Keyboard brings it all together in many ways.
I've finished your Depths album and am now onto
