how i got the idea for the blog

got nothing better to do at 12:00AM so why not
how i got the idea alright
so i was chatting with Ms.Cupkate (Ms.Cupkate's Blog  for the 100th time) about her blog, it was about what she should call it. after the conversation about her blog name(and several name rejections T_T), i thought of ocarina awareness and blogs. i thought "hey making a blog about the ocarina is a pretty cool idea, it will help the spread of ocarina awareness" and so the blog was created!
how i got the name for the blog is simple
the ocarina = the topic
sound = the wonderful sound it makes
the ocarina sound!

don't worry i'm not dead

 i am deeply sorry for no post in a while. i just got my mothers old netbook and it works so much better than my old one! hmmmm not much else to say....o yeah my next post will be about how i got the idea for the blog so that's something to look forward to. what else...what else.... o i'm still think'in about the album, i'll tell you this, i'm planning to release it in OCtober.

another download

recently i just uploaded the laputa theme.

name: Laputa single

now some of you may be wondering why i said "single" because i'm going to make studio ver.(extended, album ver., ETC) of the songs i've played, put'em in an album and put it up for download!
and throw in some bonuses for a limited time!

New Downloads

i put up new downloads of the ads i made for this blog and the ad for Cupkate Lian's blog, it's more to test out if my new Sendspace account works. but if your interested you can go download them! visit Cupkate Lian's blog here  Plainly Life

my performance at my camp

so people at the beginning, while i was waiting for my Que in the song(ballad of the goddess, cd ver., will have a download for it later) said "what's that he's holding" and all sorts of things which made me laugh a bit, at the end the response was good. i like the feeling of nervousness, and this was my first time playing(not including when i play in school for some people who request it, ends up with a lot of people watching) in front of a big group! this makes good practice for "oc awareness month" in October, because i have planes to play in the halls at school!

First download is up

My Ballad of the goddess ocarina cover is up for download, you can download where it says download center!

p.s: if your putting the song in itunes or any other thing, use this pic :)

updates and other stuff

update no. 1: i have been at camp and i don't usually have a chance to post
update no. 2: sorry i have been posting mostly to the anime blog just because it's easier(more things to talk about) and there hasn't been a whole lot of ocarina news
update no. 3: i will be playing my ocarina at my camp! :D
update no. 4: i will have a download center where you can download mp3 of my ocarina playing.(and lessons if i feel like it)

Laputa: Castle in the Sky theme on ocarina

Such a beautiful theme. ;_;

if you are going through some tough times in your life, this song will bring you to tears

even if it's something minor like missing someone or if the pet you love just died, this song will make your cry

if you want to experience the feeling just remember something sad in your life

Facebook Social Plug-ins!

i add some stuff like the ability to like the blog on Facbook and the ability to send the blog to you friends!
btw, docjazz4 has more videos about reading sheet music, go check'em out!
(update) 5 likes right after i put the like button, wow and i thought the only people who look at this are Mr .Kang and Ms. Cupkate

readin sheet music

this applies to any person who plays an instrument
docjazz made videos for how to read sheet music

ocarinas

yeah i realize i haven't made a post about ocs in a long time so.... let's talk about tabs, yes tabs the savior of playing the ocarina! they're simple and anyone with a brain can read them, but if you really want to be good, you can learn the actual notes(something i need help in), what do you use tabs or real sheet music?

emailing and stuff

Hey! Cupkate and I created an email specifically for viewers who want to give us ideas to review/talk about and more. We know not many people can actually comment, so this email can be your voice. It's a testing email because we don't know if it's going to be popular, so we're putting it up for NOW. 
Email: askthosekidsquestions@gmail.com
