forgetin send me all your albums

Two places you could put your music is on Bandcamp and Soundcloud.

if you want to record, you're probably going to need good recording equipment, including something that record high quality audio, you could even use a program like Logic Pro X and mix everything together if you want.

You're not limited to Logic Pro X, there's things like Reaper, if you want to do something like this you'll need access to the equipment which, from what I can tell, you don't have.

If you want, you could record things on a phone, maybe just advertise them as "Scratch Recordings" until you can actually get something to record with.

But basically, if you can't buy anything just stick with anything you've got, since that's your only option.

Record using Audacity on a laptop, using a microphone, I'd recommend this mic for both vocals and guitar

If you want a desktop microphone, the best for your money is the Neewer NW-700 Microphone & Boom / Shock Mount / Pop filter / Xlr-to-3.5mm Kit, and a Neewer 48v Phantom Power Supply, which comes with an Xlr-Xlr cable.

im also gonna try using bass with my guitar by playing fingerstyle and lowering the pitch in audacity by 1 octive
