Just trying to inject some life into this community beyond NGD post.

What techniques are you struggling with right now? What does your practice routine look like for improving that skill? Any advice you want to give to the other players on here?

    I have had similar experiences with the games I play when I’m stoned. I have years of experience with the games I play and feel pretty comfortable with where my realm of expertise is. But when I get high it “enables” (don’t really like using this word here, but can’t think of a better one) to start making more connections which deepens my understanding.

    Playinf music is a much more complicated/difficult task for me than playing a game, but I feel like I have enough technical proficiency with scales and enough theoretical knowledge to start exploring. What I’m lacking is the “glue” to put those things together in practice.

    After writing this out I think I’ll follow along closely with some tutorials, then revisit them during the weekend to see what kind of differences I experience.

    Thanks for sharing your experiences!

      Interesting, I can get that. In the end, as long as you like how you’re learning, I’m all for just doing what’s most fun and will keep you playing the most often. So enjoy!

        I realized what I needed to do was record what I’m practicing and listen to it in order to identify where I think I can improve. Incredibly mundane realization, but it was fun getting there.
