Hi! I have been looking thru the tribe listings in hopes of meeting people to jam or shmooze about music! I'm into trance/ambient and have been learning to play the keyboard/synth for about 18 months. Also I'm learning Reason sequencing software and when I've mastered that, i hope I can create awesome tracks.

I live in Eastern PA and I'm sure most of you are about 1000 miles away. But still I would like to talk & maybe learn some things. Most of the people in this genre are young guys and I'm a 'mature' woman so I really feel out of place. I want to go to the Gaian Mind trance fest and I'm sure I'll be the oldest person there. Oh well...if it's dark enough they won't notice, LOL.

Really the story to me about women in electronica... I lack the confidence to go out & learn stuff. When I was growing up, anything technical or electronic was Guy Stuff. It is an uphill struggle not to feel like an idiot as I ask "what do you mean by a noise gate? What are sends and inserts" and of course "can someone help me carry my Amp"? Duhhh....!

I'd love to talk to some of you & hear your stories!
