 | i read sime interviews with autechre, and where some interesting things about that, how they work together.
 sometimes they work on a song both, but sometimes, everyone
 works in a separrate studio alone. i had a partner i worked
 with for a long time, but he got bored with it. i liked the
 fact, i could share my ideas with something, ask someone
 about my music.
 
 so, do you work with a partner ? when yes, how are you
 dividing your work ?

 | Its better to do something, pass it to your friend, and then back and forth. If you try doing stuff at the same time it
 gets messy.

 | My friend and I work together sometimes, I sit here, while he's piggin out on the couch, make a melody, I go sit down,
 he comes on, does a beat, work back and forth, and so
 on...just for fun every now and again.

 | i used to make music with these 3 guys like all the time. every weekend we'd get togetehr and my friend brent would
 usually think of an idea for a song and sort of lay down the
 foundation, then he'd get me to sort of clean it up and add
 more stuff and then we'd record vocals with my buddy dave.
 sometimes dave would make the music too.
 then sometimes my friend landon would call me up and him and
 dave w0ould be working on some guitar stuff
 so i'd go over and sort of add my 2 cents then lay down some
 drums etc
 
 yeah

 | I used to be in a similar situation elusive. But it ended up with us going our separate ways   because my friend
 basically lost interest too.
 
 "I liked the fact, i could share my ideas with something,
 ask someone about my music"
 
 I liked this too very much. You have more freedom and
 options working solo. But sometimes its good to work with
 someone else. Moral support and idea exchanging, it doesnt
 work though when the other person isnt into it and doesnt to
 the same amount of work you do. This kindoff hindered my
 progress because we were practically done with a full length
 album, he went off to Milwuakee to join some garage band to
 play keyboard (which is kinda funny because he cant play the
 keys very well at all), and I am almost done with my debut
 album and in the meanwhile going to school studying to get a
 degree in music technology and doing random part time jobs.
 
 Its kinda hard to work with someone for a while (I think we
 were working together for a year and a half) and then get
 back into your own creative groove agian. It takes a while
 but eventually you get back into the swing of things
 
 My advise, before you get into a group with some other
 people, take a REALLY close look at their work habits and
 motivation
 
 My 2 cents anyway
