Willing to put serious effort on music production


Recommended Posts

Hello there...i'm new here :) glad to find this forum

I always had a problem finding what I like to do in my life as a hobbie or smthing like that..

So i've been messing around with music production for about 2 or 3 days now :P ( WOW )

And I seem to enjoy this a lot...I got FL STUDIO 12 and a lot of questions that im sure ill work out from now on, im willing to put serious effort on music production!

 

So I've made 2 small tests until now from what ive learned through tutorials etc..

I'd like your opinion for my recent results, just to know if i am on the right path :P haha

 

this one was my first attempt, made mostly of samples (i know, cheating, but i was so excited at this moment) :

and this one is my second attempt made from synths and a couple of samples (vocals) :

So whats your opinion on these, based on the background of messing around with music production for 12-20 hours in my life..?

You're off to a great start! Actually I envy you, because music-making is the best at the beginning, when you still don't really "know" what you're doing, so you experiment a lot without caring for the rules and therefore are not afraid of breaking them. Have fun! :)

music-making is the best at the beginning,

 

i disagree. i enjoy it way more now that i can get the ideas down that i have in my head instead of depending on chance discoveries to get decent sounds. it's also great to enjoy the tracks you're making even when it's not the most recent one.

 

@op

don't depend on our opinion to decide what you want to do with your time. music production should be about you enjoying the process, not about if anyone else likes that stuff you make.

if takes an awful lot of time and effort to learn your daw, your synths, the necessary music theory, how to structure a track, how to finish a track, how to eq and mix properly, … .  online tutorials might speed up learning the basics (it took me way more than 2-3 days to come up with something like your "test" samples) but after that you're on your own.

so if you expect to get a track released within a year or playing at parties all over the world, you're going to be frustrated and disappointed. you might end up like some of us, who (including me) have been producing for 10 years without releasing anything. for some that might change in the future, but even if it won't change for me i'm still happy with all the time i've spent producing. it's all about enjoying the process of creating music.
