Spotted a second hand budget Fender acoustic guitar on my local buy/sell chat and couldn't resist. I'm learning again after giving up in high school!

Feels great to have extremely sore finger tips and that early part of the learning curve of a new skill again. I'm just swapping between A and D chords over and over but feeling the progress.

Watching justinguitar's course on YouTube, other tips are appreciated!

Hey, maybe after a little music theory and a few years of learning I'll pick up my copy of Ableton and the Serum synth again and try to make something fun.

My love is electronic music and D&B + sub genres but beautiful simple guitar music has always moved me. Especially things like the Outer Wilds sound track.

I feel like doing some more non-computer things is also helping clear a bit of brain fog around side project work too. I have so many hard problems I want to work on that I get paralysed sometimes.

Doing something completely different is helpful in unsticking my thoughts it seems.

Music theory is indistinguishable from math and magic to my untrained eyes.

@Olical Theory is all maths, but a frameworks of maths for understanding how emotions are manipulated by pitches (although very directed toward the particular ways in which this worked in classical music)
