Advices For Marriage - 3 Dangerous Myths You Must Face

!±8± Advices For Marriage - 3 Dangerous Myths You Must Face

Do you need some advices for marriage? Here's one: If you want a marriage that lasts you a lifetime, take a hard look at these 3 dangerous myths and banish them from your mind, so they don't sabotage the happiness you've always dreamed of...

Myth #1: Your expectations of married life stay the same.

The important reason in this, is the fact that many couples fail to continuously discuss what their personal ideas of married life will look like with each other.

As time goes by, your preferences in life will change. When you were younger, your idea of having a good time could be a night out in town. But as you age, you might find staying at home watching a movie a more attractive idea.

Why not set aside time for a vacation each year so you can discuss how your expectations of married life have changed? This can help you avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and bring you two closer together.

Myth #2: Everything good in our relationship will automatically get better.

The phrase "Happily Ever After" is one of the most incomplete sentences used in fairy tales. They forgot to add "...because they worked hard on their marriage to make it better every single day."

It is an illusion to think that the romance in the beginning of your relationship will naturally last forever. It takes concentrated effort to keep the passion in your marriage alive.

Things in your marriage can only get better if you make the effort to be more patient, learn how to communicate your feelings better, become a master negotiator. Otherwise, you're just leaving it to chance. A chance for it to get worse. Your relationship was great in the beginning because you both put effort and time into making it so. Remember, marriage is a journey, not a destination.

Myth #3: It's my spouse's responsibility to keep me happy.

Unfortunately, this is the kind of thinking that results in extremely difficult marriage problems. Because unless you recognize and face this dangerous myth, your husband will always fall short of your expectations of him. This will make him feel like a failure and result in him pulling away from you.

Truth is: You are the only person in your life who can give you happiness. The sooner you take back responsibility for the way you feel, the sooner your marriage will soar to new heights. I guarantee you that.

SynthPop and Electro Music

!±8± SynthPop and Electro Music

Electro:

Electro is all about a driving drum machine beat with lots of cool synthesizer riffs, and a groovy bass line. The idea is to achieve a sci-fi sound in the track. Use heavy amounts of Distortion, delay, reverb, phase and chorus to produce robotic sounding vocals and instrumentation.

With just a few loops, and some good effects work you can make some really good Electro tracks. Using a vocoder or effects to get a Stephen Hawking type voice, for vocals is also a cool method.

Try to focus on your synth work. the rest of the instruments are really in the back seat to the synthesizer.

SynthPop:

If you've ever heard an early "MTV Era" band like Flock of Seagulls, a-ha, devo, and that crowd, then you've heard Synth Pop. Its very similar to Electro, except the focus is more typically "pop" rather than robotic, it is also; generally speaking, slower paced.

Devo had a more Punk mentality. Thomas Dolby was the first real 'geek' pop star. Synthpop uses all the classic instruments of pop and pop rock, but the synthesizer is the dominate instrument being used.

Consider 'I Ran So Far', it uses typical pop melodies, instruments and is paced as a pop song. Yet; if you pay attention, the song is driven by the simple synthesizer melody being played. 'Cars' by Gary Numan is probably the perfect example of a SynthPop track. The more robotic feel, processing on the instruments and emphasis on the synth is pure synthpop classic.

To make synthpop you should first listen to some 80's new wave groups, then try Savage Garden and jameriqaui. Although not classified as a SynthPop group jameriqaui uses the foundation of synth a great deal, which makes for good idea fodder.

To construct the tracks, keep the synth in the foreground with vocals. If you are any good, with a synthesizer you can substitute any, and all instruments with synth versions. Try using the synth in place of the lead guitar.

I will say its hard to make synthpop without being able to play a synthesizer well enough to do it all, or having a band to back you up. However with a bit of creativity, you can do anything with loops.

I suggest checking out Thomas Dolby and Gary Numan, they were and still are pioneers of electronica, that goes for anyone interested in making electronica songs.
