We all like music. Most of us have created it. Most of us have played it. Most of us like to share it with people we enjoy. Many of us have made some money out of it. Some of us are musicians, but most of us are not. Most of us live in places where we can’t get the kinds of jobs where we get to make music. And most of us are discouraged by the high prices and poor quality of music.
Music is a big part of our lives. We use it for fun. We listen to it at work (many of us, in fact). We listen to it in restaurants, in the car, and at the gym. We listen to streaming music services like Spotify or Pandora, or we download music from the iTunes Store. We listen to free music on sites like YouTube and SoundCloud. We listen to songs from our Facebook friends. We listen to music on YouTube, or concerts at Carnegie Hall, or TED talks, or anime, or movies. Music is everywhere.
But it’s also hard to make money in music. Most musicians don’t make a living at it. Most musicians make less than $20,000 a year. Even on a good day, most musicians make less than $20,000 a year.
We musicians are weird people. We spend a lot of time playing music. We play instruments, or sing, or make up songs, or teach people to play instruments, or design instruments, or write software to make instruments, or improvise. We play shows. We promote our shows. We write articles for magazines and newspapers. We go on tour. We teach music. We spend hours every day reading articles and blogs and books about music.
So why do we do it? What makes us musicians
The vast majority of the musicians on Tune.Fm are amateurs, not professionals. Many of them are just getting started, and for many of them their goal is to be able to play music with others.
Most music apps require that you play an instrument. Even the ones that don’t require instruments usually require you to use a MIDI keyboard or guitar tuner. Tune.Fm does neither of these things.
That might seem strange, but it is not. Most of us learned how to play an instrument by copying someone else’s music. We play by ear, not by reading music. We play by feel, not by the rules.
Why do musicians think this way? Because the original technologies weren’t designed for playing by ear. MIDI is designed so you can read music. But most of us don’t read music. We play by ear.
The piano keyboard is designed so you can play by touch, not by reading. But most of us don’t read music. We play by ear.
Why do guitar tuners require you to play a guitar? Because most musicians don’t play by touch. Most of us play by ear.
