This is exactly what I'm playing with at the moment. However, my expectations are a lot lower than most and I'm doing it purely for my own creativities sake. I'm tired of relying on everyone else around me to get anything done so I'm going to do it myself (for better or for worse). If you're not looking to make a living off of it, why not go for it? I think it's fun writing with different instruments and I'm going to learn a lot about the recording industry through my own mistakes in mixing and mastering. Coming from a background of playing guitars for a good portion of my life, it's fulfilling to lay down bass grooves the way I hear them, layering piano parts in places (talk about a rewarding, but somewhat frustrating instrument to pick up) and so on and so forth. I don't care that I'm a nobody, but if I can make anything that a couple people online enjoy, then my mission is done. For some people, music isn't about success - it's a stress reliever and a hobby.
