You are your own worst critic, which is far better than when an artist becomes obsessed by whatever they are working on and can't step back and view their stuff from the perspective of a first time listen. Attempt a cover version just to see how someone else has composed and then try a track in their style. |

i would rather be honest with myself and say that i love sound more than i like actual music, cause, tons of times ill just bang a sound out a million times and smile really big without ever really making a track, and, then ill feel like i have to throw it in a track, and its like, well why did i do that, now i am mad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well music - i love, but, i think im better at making "events"?>??? rather than... scenes? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ill try that |

i was just doing a jam , i got off school at around 10 and its now 1 so thats what 3 hours? 2 and a half? i editing some parts together and left and came back to listen to it and i was like, this is the stupidest thing hahahahhahahah |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i always enjoy the music i make that i would never ever show anyone way more than the music i do show people. i wonder if that means anything? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it means that its coming from the heart and its what really moves you - but what is it then when you begin to hate even that? when you feel it during the process then you listen to it and youre stunned that you would even make it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah that happens so much that i too wonder why i even bother. |
||||||||

do an idm version of "the orange theme" |

You should just do what you enjoy and make sounds without feeling the need to arrange them into tracks that sounds like stuff that's been done before. |

at least listening to music is still a joy |
||||||||

i had the opposite experience. my music just kept getting better and better. unfortunately i was the only one who thought so. i think you should try collaborating. you need to find a music person who's good at the music, not so good at the sound design and crunch. or just steal someone else's music, and grind it down until it becomes unrecognizable. if your field isn't delivering, plow it under i say. then again, if you're having a good time, why complain? in the interest of full disclosure, i'm not sure if anyone has ever taken my advice. |

oh cygnus, thanks for sharing such a big personal problem. no worries though, we all knew you cant make music but just bunch of unartuiculated KSSSHSKS BADUM BASSJKSKAKCKCKCKC on the web once in a while. besides, no one with attitude of peacock and head like cabbage cant make music anyway. but seriously - that youtube laptop battle scene shows youre not really about making music anyway man.its just a bunch of sounds trying to be "idm" cool, KABOOM DISH PSH PSH KACKCKCK nothing more, sorry to say that man. |

imo following the old techniques that everyones created only leads to repitition of old ideas.. create your own expression and then you will find the passion again.. nobody really knows how to create music, its just a bunch of people agreeing that a technique sounds good.. |

music is overrated anyway. maybe you could become a dj? (like autechre) |

That's probably the consensus of a few other members too. Most times it all starts with a sound or pattern. It's not really music, more of something that makes you think "this works, let's see what else works with this". Oddly enough, when I first started making music, back when I was total shit, my tracks sounded more like 'music' than they do now. My sound is getting more and more contrived, trying to fit in sounds that work to me. Either my ears are maturing to my own creative process or I'm just getting more and more weird with what my ears deem acceptable material. |

I suppose making an actual finished track rather than some nice sounds does take quite a bit of discipline and effort, even if it's all (normally) fun. Perhaps you need to take a break until you're ready to delve into the more anal job of forming and polishing a complete track. You can muck about making sounds here and there until that moment comes. Good luck. You're stuff is fine, everyone sometimes goes through this self doubt business... |
