I was sent the following text as I was a poll worker in Collin county previously .

I love the idea of playing 90s rave music at the poll ( Firestarter - Prodigy ).
Alas, I am not a DJ.
It looks like a paid gig. So I thought I shall pass it along

Does anyone remember dreamworld in arlington? I was reminiscing on it yesterday and thinking about all the old shitty bands i used to watch play there like “phalter” and “hellafied funk crew.” Does anyone have any stories/pictures? I tried to do some digging but cant find really anything except a couple old grainy videos off youtube.

Hello, I’m looking for a few local DFW musicians who’s work would be suitable for local roller derby videos. Sometimes the videos play real time, many times it’s slow motion so there’s room for variety of speed in the songs.

Willing to pay, will always give credit and include links to your main work.

I’m not a musician so bare with me when I explain what I’m wanting because you may know better than me what I actually need. For variety I’m hoping to get at least 4 tracks. And then maybe 8 small music flourish tracks.

The music flourish tracks description or what I think I’ll need (slow motion and real time may need 2 tracks for each)
* Player impacts with other player

* Player falls

* Jammer passes all the players

* Jammer or Player does interesting stunt.

I’m hoping the 4 main tracks simply flow well with the videos and is enjoyable to listen to while watching.

Some videos have been as long as 7 minutes. So I’m wondering if I mostly need music that would loop well.

Please give feedback on what would be a fair rate so I know if I can afford it and treat you fairly. I’m decent at photography and only beginning to get into video I’m up for doing a free photo shot of your band for a discount on the music if the price is a little high for me. I don’t think I’m at a skill level (at the moment) to offer to do a music video but who knows it would be a learning experience.

DM me and I’ll send you a link to my Instagram so you can see what I’ve done. Will be posting videos with music on YouTube in the future.

Hey everyone! I’m a Dallas-based indie/alternative artist looking to connect with other local musicians. A drummer would be ideal, but I’m also open to guitarists, bassists, keyboard players, or anyone who likes similar music and wants to collaborate.

Right now, I’m mainly looking for people interested in occasionally rehearsing and appearing in performance-based social content, with the possibility of playing live together in the future. This isn’t an exclusive commitment, and it’s completely fine if you already have another band or project. Any scheduled content shoots would be paid.

Some of my influences are The Shins, Vampire Weekend, Tame Impala, The National, Royel Otis, Glass Animals, and Big Thief.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to comment or message me. I’d be happy to send over some of my music and talk more!
