Trouble on my mind...

[Bugsy]

Hey, just had questions that i know only you guys would be able to answer...

In making music, we have this formula into making or completing one.
we have to be able to put certain effects at a certain amount of volume to get to a "general sound" or one that is most appealing to the public.
some of us follow the guide some of us do not.
my question is...

in this profession or hobby, do we really have to follow all this rules?
I mean does following all this make us better?
Isnt it not the end result we aim for?

(just a late night thought...)

Good point! You can do all the regular stuff that everyone else does, and I believe that's why a lot of music today sounds the same (plus other reasons). I'm a firm believer in just doing whatever you want, it's your music.

The only rule is... There are no rules, regardless of what anyone tells you.

touche!

can you maybe give tips on how someone who has none to little experience, avoid being embarrassed by someone the opposite?

how about someone who wants to make it?

What is it you're trying to accomplish? Just beats? Or full on productions?

Practice, Practice, Practice. You need to make probably 50-100 beats before you will make anything decent. Just keep at it for the long haul!

I guess for now is to make the best beats gearing to a production.

Oh boy. Well I'm drinking right now so I don't have the mental capacity to get deep mind stuff oging on. Maybe another time.
