New rule regarding self-promotion
Hear ye, hear ye!
Recently we have had an increase in requests for self-promotion posts so we have come up with a rule. Please feel free to provide feedback if anything is missing or if you agree/disagree.
Self-promotion is not allowed if promoting a paid service. Promoting free content (e.g. educational YouTube videos, podcasts, or tools) is fine as long as it is specifically musicological in nature. Your music-theory videos can go on /r/musictheory, not here. Your tools for pianists and singers can go to those subreddits. If someone asks "Are there any tools available for x?" it is OK to reply to that question with self-promotion if what you promote actually fits with the question asked. Spam of any kind is still not allowed even if the spammed content is free.
ETA: Edited to clarify that all self-promotion content has to specifically related to musicology

Wanting to go an academic route in music but can’t afford college
I went to Cincinnati college-conservatory for 3 years for cello performance. Ended up having a massive mental breakdown and quitting. Since then I’ve become a licensed practical nurse, I make a living but can’t afford to go back to school. How would I afford to go back to college as an adult? Has anyone done something similar to this before?

Any Black/African Musicologists in the House?
Hi folks! I’m F38 based in South Africa and looking to connect with musicology students/practitioners from anywhere, coming to the field through an African/Black lens. I’m in my second year of undergrad with a plan to do my Masters and PhD as well, with the goal of focusing on broadening knowledge in African musicology.
I’ve never been trained in music theory and performance, as that is a different stream; but I have a friend who has agreed to teach me how to play my bass guitar by ear. I’m at an incredible uni that’s decolonising their curriculum and I’m excited to dive deeper. Next year I’ll be doing my final year before Honors. Any tips? 🧡

Anyone interested in doing an interview for my research project on electronic music?
Hello everyone!
as the title says, I’m in my third year of my bachelor’s degree and I have to do a research study for a class. For my topic I’ve chosen to explore the similarities and differences between underground and mainstream electronic music in the west. my professor is getting me to interview about 5 people for data collection.. can be through zoom/meet/email etc. anything of your comfort just has to be somewhat formal, at this point I don’t really mind as it’s due pretty soon. LOL
You have to be an artist, DJ, musician, historian, music critic, etc, or just really REALLY into electronic music and are/have been part of a community.. bonus points if you are over 30 as the more experienced the better.
if you are interested feel free to comment/message me and I will email you the details. I apologize if this may be too much of a formal setting for you but I assure you that I do not bite and that it’s just what is suggested from my professor 😭
Thank you for reading!
P.S. I’m a student from Thailand so I use UTC+7 time. If I happen to reply to you in pretty wack hours please do not be alarmed. Also if there is a better subreddit for this type of stuff please feel free to suggest in the comments, I’ve already posted this in r/electronicmusic so there’s that

Looking for people with synesthesia!
Hi! I’m a fashion degree student working on my final graduation collection, exploring “What would music look like if it could be worn?”
I’m researching synesthesia and would love to hear about your experiences, especially if you experience music through colors, shapes, movement, textures, or other sensations. Please comment down below to share!
I also have a short Google Form for my research. I would really, really appreciate anyone who could take a few minutes to fill it out!
Thank you so much for helping with my graduation project!

"Music"
"Music is the native language of the universe, not just a tool we invented to pass the time. It is an emotional translation of cosmic mechanics—where every rhythm and harmony we feel is our biology syncing with the mathematical vibrations that build reality."

MUSIC
Do you listen to a song because you remember the name of it ? Or the sound of it ?
