Artie Owl Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Hey guys, and gals, let's criss cross our senses for a bit here. If your sound was a taste what would it taste like? Would it be warm, or hot, or cool? Would it be smooth or crunchy? This can be any tone that you yourself can produce, or have produced in the past. I've been thinking about it myself, and I have to say if I think about my SG Standard through my Blues Jr, warmed up that is my sound could taste warm, sweet, and round. Full, not unlike a jelly filled donut, and come on, who doesn't like Jelly filled donuts!? Who's next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Thats a good question! I actually don't know...i might say something but others may taste something different. I would say maybe something hot like an spicy meatball. :) You guys tell me! Most of you guys have heard my stuff... http://www.soundcloud.com/shredastaire (I think that's it....but its blocked at work so I can't czech) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ne14t? Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I would have to say my sound would taste like picking up that brown beer bottle at a party, taking a swig and getting a mouth full of cigarette butts! Nah I kid its not that bad, I imagine it tasting like a cool, juicy sweet piece of honeydew melon followed by a swift smash to the face with an ultra tangy lemon.

WahKeen Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I couldn't say. It would be better to see what your music tastes like to others. I think that would be more interesting, IMHO. Like for me, ArtieO's Youtube tune I checked out yesterday, tasted like a warm soft chocolate chip cookie with the chocolate melting. Fer real... Whaddaya...?

Dub-T-123 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I would post a clip and see what you guys think but I have no way to upload clips. I have recorded a bunch but can't use like soundcloud or anything like that. I think my sound is like playdoh.. Fun to play with, not to eat.

That's a good idea Wah Keen, I think we should share what we think it tastes like as well as what others think, it's all about sharing. I'm going to go listen to a bit more of your playing in a few. Think about what you think your playing tastes like too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artie Owl Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 For instance, listening to your "I can only imagine" Instrumental, it tastes like angel food cake with extra dark chocolate. Light, but surrounded by thick rich sweet sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahKeen Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 As long as it doesn't taste like sh**. Then again, who's tasted sh**?.... Hmmm.... Cool beans Artie, I donno, maybe mine tastes like....

Silenced Fred Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Peanut Butter and Jelly. it seems simple, but the type of peanut butter or jelly is all up to you and don't get me started on breads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoNameBand Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I like your analogy. However, I don't like to mix my emotions with food. Thats when you typically, over eat. With me, music is more of an emotion, something I'm trying to say and can't get out unless I play it. It's in my head and I want to get it out and share it. Hopefully, it doesn't taste too bad for others. If I had to put my favorite guitar sound in to food terms, I would say Creamy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 A spicy vegetarian curry over brown rice with a golden lager to drink. The rice will fill you up, but because we don't have a bass player you won't feel I just ate two eclairs full. The curry is my attitude, volume, and FXs. The vegetable medley is my drummer. That cat's palette is pretty diverse. We have some mellower stuff which is the beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I don't know, it's easier for me to cross aural and tactile sensations. I always aim to have my sound feel like a punch between the eyes, but I suppose taste is a little harder for me to figure out--probably because I have no taste! No, I guess my sound doesn't taste like anything to me...I dunno, maybe it tastes fruity, or cheesy. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artie Owl Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 That's my whole point though, we wouldn't normally associate our sounds with a different sense, but I think it's good to think about it in different terms. Trying thinking of a taste or flavour and play like tastes in practice or something. Some people don't differentaite between sesnses when playing music, it happens to affect all of their senses at once. Perhaps that's how it was for guys like Jimmy Hendrix and such.

MANNIC Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 My sound, to me, tastes like when my dentist removes the plaque from my teeth - just before I get to rinse. The nuances can depend on settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
