Don’t give the pedo any ideas

Boston?

It would in the same way a boat with a fan on it would

Hey wait a minute

Unrelated but what is that start menu?? Mine looks absolutely nothing like that

Unless you’re flying Southwest. That shit is a free for all

Yeah I experience that quite a bit more than I care to admit also haha

I certainly try!

It’s good but the lack of people and interaction sucks. One of my favourite things about Reddit is reading the comments and discussions, but there’s almost none of that here.

Hard to beat $10 for unlimited music and podcasts + soon to be audiobooks

wtf is a Kia race

TiL Epic had purchased BandCamp

African or European swallow?

Oh I love these!

1: Learning experience was VERY slow. I still feel like I’m playing catch-up, but I can be proud of what I put out now. DAWs have a very steep learning curve, then it flattens out for a bit, then gets steep again as you start to realise just how little you know!

2: I have had no musical training whatsoever, so it took 6+ years of playing around and teaching myself through experimentation to get a track signed.

3: Most important thing, and something I still struggle with, is to focus on the music. It may sound silly, but when you’re a producer, you’re doing everything from start to finish. So it’s easy to get caught up in the production, in the technicals, or even in trying to get a specific style down — sometimes you have to step away and listen after a week so you can go “oh this is actually musically interesting”.

4: Most recent is taking advantage of macros and modulation to give sounds character and slight imperfections, such as a randomised LFO on a cutoff filter that changes the texture slightly throughout :)

This answer is a bit more specific to what program I started with (FL Studio) — but organisation! Colour coding, naming, etc.

Another one I’m still learning and struggling with is not to sit on songs. I have 20+ 90% done ideas that I should finish and get out. Sometimes waiting for that ‘spark’ to come back is detrimental. Trust your talent and finish it.

For me it was definitely a big deal when it first happened! I was working alongside artists I listened to for years. However, these aren’t massive corporate labels, so I have the freedom to contract one song or EP to a label, and one to another, etc.

All of my stuff can be found under my name on basically all platforms :) Not sure if links in comments are allowed.

People buy iPhone because they’re consistent, polished, and just work. I love my Pixel, but glitches pop up more often than they should for a $1k phone. I don’t think I’d ever return to Apple, but sometimes the temptation shows up when they get a feature (admittedly late) but the implementation and function just plain works.

They’re being built cheap by large corporations
