HHowdy, I'm looking to move from across the country into the Portland Region later this year.
My ideal situation to rent a house just outside town with one or two roommates.
I'm bringing my home studio that I have invested in ~$15K into. That includes multiple audio interfaces, a small console, a small collection of mics. As well as drums, guitar, bass, and PA rigs. As well some equipment for streaming and content creation.
I'm pretty open on sharing my equipment and my knowledge. I enjoy teaching as much as I do creating.
I have years of experience working at Sweetwater as well as a Live Sound tech. And have recorded artists for the last decade in my own diy studio.
However, I don't have a whole lot of ties to Portland. So ideally, I'd be looking for a like minded local(s) to build up a nice homebrew operation. Or if not, a shared musical or artistic living space.
My ideal candidate would be an audio student, somebody interested in audio or video, or an already established musician/engineer looking to collaborate.
However aspiring artists, streamers, film makers or designers that want to have an artistic shared living space would be awesome.
Every housing situation I have lived also doubled as a home studio and rehearsal studio so Id like to keep this going. Feel free to contact me for more information or send anyone my way that might be interested.
EDIT : My budget is likely a split rent of $800-$1250 per person, not including utilities.
I make all kinds of music. I typically write and record rock music lately, but have played different genres such as hiphop, funk, jazz, and metal.
And more about me - 32/M moving from Indiana. LBGTQ+ 420 and Pet Friendly. I have two sweet cats. I'm usually pretty organized and pretty easy going. Having good positive vibes in a shared living space is number 1, so I tend not to sweat the small stuff.
Thanks!
