Deck discussion for 5,6,7,8

Nice theme.
A few of the cards does not do music, except in thought.
Pirates are very musical, so I'll accept reef pirates in the mix ;)

Absolutely wonderful, although I’m slightly sad there aren’t any tubas or guitars

Maybe a didgeridoo could make it up for a tuba, though it's Minotaur themed.
Now go talk to the creator, he's probably confused about why you'd initiate contact and then left him hanging there.

Very nice! Here's some manabase ideas, it's everything that makes blue/green:

Also, here's some other land ideas that maybe fit the theme:
- Ancient Ziggurat
- Arena
- Gateway Plaza
- Grand Coliseum
- Thespian's Stage

It's cool to see all the different themed cards in one place but I think you should pick a couple that have some synergy together and build around those. Like check out this deck built around Song of Creation:

...that even plays Wild Cantor without trying to be music-themed, they're just trying to combo off Song of Creation. Here's another version:

Some of them prefer art above combo ;)
I've always wondered how they create a hierarchy within their ranks.
Control the art and you control the rich!

Hey I'm the same way, I've passed over a lot of cards because of the art. Makes it tough to play Legacy sometimes.

Ol' MusicMan is playing some of my favorite artists - Drew Tucker, Rebecca Guay.

I looked to see if there's any music-themed cards by some other artists I like - Quinton Hoover, Richard Kane Ferguson, Harold McNeil, Margaret Organ-Kean. Just Goblin War Drums, Hymn to Tourach, and maybe Tragic Poet counts too.

I've found my own way to be "competitively artistic"
My builds are focussed on winning by whatever it takes, and in a bizarre way I've found that art can actually add to the whole think.

Many people have noted that my decks are somehow beautiful.

The trick I think is in the art.

Once I know the decklist I work towards picking artworks that fit the theme and the colors of the deck.
Every land is carefully picked for the coloration that is best at displaying the colors of the deck.
And the same happens with all the other cards. Currently my favourite lands are the zendikar lands as they seem to be constructed for thematical coloration.

So when I play out the lands of the deck, opponents subconsciously pick up the vibe of the deck and sort of gets vaguely hypnotized.

It's worth the effort to go with art.

But there is a wast difference in colouring a goldfish and colouring a tiger.

My opponent's are never in doubt about the danger they are in, my builds are not for kids.

The only thing I hate is that I'm a good artist, a good designer but actually also easily distracted which turns me into a bad player. Even worse, I've had some pro's try out my designs, but they play them even worse than me.
