Bio

Hi! I'm Chloe, aka Lady Vinyl. That is my artist name that I DJ and create music under, as well as the name I use for my art blog, because I'm lazy. If you're wondering where I got it, it's from The Mighty Boosh!

I play guitar and ukulele as well as keyboards, and DJ. So, the past 2 years I've done FAWM my songs are either original guitar pieces (sometimes with keyboard), samples spliced and chopped up in Audacity to become something totally different, or just lyrics.

As for the music I love, I enjoy most music except contemporary country. My favorite genres are rock and electronic, but I also love everything from orchestral music to folk-rock to dubstep to hip-hop and stuff like that.

Some of my favorite artists are The Beatles, My Chemical Romance, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, Fall Out Boy, Lemon Demon, Florence + The Machine, and They Might Be Giants.

Outside of music, everything else I do is fueled by either art or comedy. I love to draw, animate, and write.

But really all I do in life is play a lot of Pokemon and read a lot of Homestuck. This bio makes my life actually sound more robust than that.

If you'd like to do a collab by all means get in touch! I'd love to do collabs this year.

Hey, thanks for listening to my song *21506 - yeah, I considered it half-song-half-fanfic 8D

Oh, for sure - migraines are not just a headache! Mine have been less and less frequent as I've gotten older, so I ain't complaining about that

Hey, another Mighty Boosh fan! Great!

Allloooo Lady Vinyl! Thanks so much for the comment on my song. I am so behind on commenting and writing, and just... fawming in general. Btw, with all the pokemon you play, don't you have a pokemon song? i see a Pony song...

Wotcha, cheers for the nice comment on The Final Word. Got to love some gritty sounding bass!

Thanks! You're not the first person to mention Portal. I played that for about 10 minutes and got bored, never heard any music...

Hey! Thanks for the comment on my skirmish song

Any chance you wanna write something together? I've had the title "millennium armageddon remix battlefield" kicking around for ages without knowing what to do with it, but you seem like you'd be full of ideas!

Hey Chloe. Sorry, didn't know you'd been ill. As I said, didn't mean to push, was just wondering. I could see making the mocker era thing work. Let me know when you've got something, or as I said earlier, if you need any help or just want to kick ideas back and forth, feel free. Thanks. Looking forward to what you come up with. And feel better.

Hey Chloe, how are ya? Not meaning to rush you, but how are the lyrics coming? If you need help/opinion on them, just let me know. Thanks.

Thanks for the comment!

Hey Chloe, no problem on the delay. Glad you're comfortable with singing. No matter if you've got the best voice or not, I'm gonna guess that at least you're on key most of the time, which is not something I can say. Let me know when you've got a start.

Thanks for the comments too!

Hey! I've done a few collabs, so I'll try to be helpful. I don't have any prepared ideas. I find it really easy to write music to existing lyrics (assuming the lyrics fit a style of music I'm familiar with). So maybe the way to start is for you to get some lyrics together on whatever subject you'd like (probably not My Little Pony though - I'm like 108 years old... ) and we can go from there. Stylistically, I'm pretty open. The only real influence we have in common is the Beatles although I like Fall Out Boy and Gorillaz, so maybe if it's in a Beatle-y vein, it would be best. But whatever you want to do, I'll try to work with.

I'm hoping you're going to sing on this, since you've heard my voice, you're probably the better bet. What we can do is for me to create a backing track to the lyrics and then send that to you - one version with me singing and one without so you can record your vocals. Then just send the vocal track(s) back to me and I'll fly them into the backing track and mix it.

All this, of course, is open to wherever the process takes us and your input. Hopefully it'll be fun all around.

Hey there. So we've gotten paired up for the random collab. Should be fun. Give me a shout on my page or my e-mail (it's on my page) and we can plan.

My life sounds more interesting on paper, too.

Pokemon and Homestuck.
You've been watched.
majidae 3 months ago

Yes. I would be concerned if somebody did.
majidae 3 months ago

Ahh. Me and Vriska are similar, which is bad, but it's true. We're both just very ambitious. I probably wouldn't push a cripple down stairs, though. xD
majidae 3 months ago

I'm quite similar to Dirk in many ways, so I think I just sympathize with him more. And it's surprising: I don't meet a lot of people who like Vriska. 80
majidae 3 months ago

There's a couple people at my college who like it, but not a lot.
And hmm... I'd say Dirk, then Jake, then Vriska, then Karkat, then Roxy, then Terezi.
majidae 3 months ago

No, not that bad yet! xD
calumcarlyle 3 months ago

hey, i'm injured this fawm but i would have offered to collaborate with you if i was fit for it. looking forward to your stuff, have a good fawm!
majidae 3 months ago

Hah ha! Thanks for your interest!
I'm starting to think that there's going to be Homestuck everywhere I go... which is both comforting and terrifying. Mostly terrifying.
oddaustin 3 months ago

You like TMBG. Thus, you have been watchlisted.
majidae 3 months ago

It might be either the shared love of multiple bands, or the shared love of Homestuck and Pokemon, but I think we're going to get along swimmingly well.
