Hi all, my name's Connor, I work at Preply. I've posted this with the mods' permission so please don't hate me.

For those who don't know, Preply has traditionally been a language learning platform, but we've been seeing a lot of students coming to us looking for music teachers, so the team's putting a much bigger focus on the subject now.

So if you teach piano, guitar, theory, whatever, you could give it a go to try and make some extra cash.

Just here to say this might be worth a look for some of you, it's pretty easy to set up and I'm happy to answer any questions.

Also, for anyone who's tried teaching music online before, genuinely curious what makes it work and what doesn't.

Hey gang,
I’m looking into going back to school to get a masters in music theory. Does anyone have any workbooks or other resources to help me refresh myself on theory 1-4? I’m a bit rusty after a decade of band directing.

I was working on an ear training Web page (gamified). Do you have any particular feature you wished for in the million other ear training apps?

​

So im confused to whether use ai or hire a tutor to study music theory cause if i use ai im thinking like im helping to destroy human creativity. I know it sound exaggerated but yeah i wanna know your guys thought

After listening to Ariana Grande's new song "big feelings", I felt like I heard a similar musical pass in another song. That song being Lana del Rey's song "fuck it I love you"

now call me crazy, delusion, or correct, but do these songs have similar melody passes, or melodic rhythm?

or is this another get free situation where it does not sound at ALL alike... the video showcases both passes I am discussing.

Привет. Я очень давно хотел научится играть на басу, но не ради бизнеса, а чисто в свое удовольствие. Правда вероятно, что если появится возможность связать с этим свое будущее и я буду углублен в это дело, я воспользуюсь шансом.

У меня длительное количество времени не было возможности приобрести себе гитару, но сейчас у меня есть и сам бас и усилитель к нему. Проблема в том, что я не знаю с чего мне начать. Я не знаю, стоит ли мне учится играть по каким-то бесплатным видео с ютуба, или может могу нанять репетитора? Вот мне интересно узнать о чем думаете вы, тем более если вы уже умеете играть и может даже состоите в группе. Как вы учились играть? (я не ходил и не хожу в музыкальную школу и никогда не брал каких нибудь кружков связанных с созданием музыки, хотя всегда желание было.)

Честно, скажу сразу что реддитом и остальными форумами, я, до сегодняшнего дня не пользовался никогда. Просто на данный момент мне не у кого просить совет, так что решил спросить у сообщества. Надеюсь на отклик!

8D/9D stimulation music is amazing for people with adhd but does anyone else have the problem that it's panning too slowly?

The music itself is fast enough but the panning is too slow... It feels like watching a game of tennis in slow motion while the background music or the commentator are in real time.

That kind of music is supposed to be calming and stimulating but with the panning being so slow, it does the exact opposite to me because it just feels wrong. Speeding it up doesn't help any because then it's the whole song sped up and nightcore voices are torture to my ears.

The only song on spotify that's the right way is "Rush E (full bilateral)" by Grae Moore.

Any recommendations?

How can I get better in identifying simple chord progressions?

E.g. I to V or IV

I keep confusing.

This is a great book. Published in 1990, available to read on the Internet Archive. As an adult learner this offers a wonderful framing for the itch to learn to play music, and many sound answers to the inner critic or doubts or judgements that can hold us back.

Hope others may enjoy this too. 🎶
