Here's something. Y'all ever write and record something you think is modern and hip...

[squealie]

and listeners think it sounds 80s?

I reckon I did the same thing to fuckers that played in the 70s.

 

[Mailman1971]

I play tunes purposely to sound like the 80s. Haha

 

[DanTravis62]

Nah, my recording technique is too far out of left field

But if it was recorded on a four track, they would DEFINITELY think it was from the 80s

I wrote something the other day and sent it to a friend and he sent me a clip of Crowbar from 89, I ripped that riff completely…

One time I wrote a song based on a riff that turned out to be straight out of a Lenny Kravitz song. Ugh, so I trashed it...

A friend once compared my voice to "the guy from Dinosaur Jr". So I bought a Dinosaur Jr album to check it out and became a fan...
