do you listen to your own music? Is it wrong? i'm listening to some of my stuff right now... i like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this song is creeping me out :x |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is it wrong? What the hell? No it isn't wrong. Isn't that why you make it in the first place? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no man, it's for other people... i guess i just feel like i'm being hella egotistical by listening to my own tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i never used to listen to my music but i do all the time now but i've been listening to so much of my music that i'm sick of it now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
For other people? Haha |
||||||||
|
|

i'm usually sick of my stuff before i'm done writing it. especially if i'm writing a guitar based song. my friends like it the first time, but not after a week of hearing me work on it |
||||||||

some feed back would be nice... and maybe telling me what genre this stuff should be in. and like. i'm not going to listen if you say it's genre is crap... or shit... or crappy shit... or shitty crap... or toilet paper... or like... something that's worse than toilet paper... or like, the little known genre "you're ugly"... anyways, i think learning to cope is really cool! |

I listen to my songs all the time, especially right after I make them I drive around listening to them over and over. Not even driving anywhere just listening. I let my mind try to think of how it needs to be changed/fixed/re-mastered and such. It's a good way to get perspective on your music. |

i hate you, you are a cock! |

I started making music in the first place so I would have something to listen to that I knew I liked.. no guesswork. I took everything I like about music and tried to put it together. sometimes it works, sometimes not.. but I am dead sick of all my stuff because I listen to it so much... I obviously don't consider it professional, but I am happy with it. :-) |
||||||||
|

|||||||||

After i finish a song i don't listen to it for a while cos' when you are making it you have to listen to it over and over again. But after awhile, sure...! And of course you like it, why would you make a song that you don't want to listen to yourself ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why is that? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I used too hear my music a lot (preferrely when i was high). It will get ideas cooking and make you think f other guidelines when adding more to the songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah. I started making music coz I didn't kow people wrote what I liked. I wanted to be another chemical brother. Well I am I suppse, but I don't mean in the musical sense (*drugs*) I listen to my shit more than I listen to anythgin else except the beastie boys. It's not wrong, it's the whole purpose of it, at least as far as I'm concerned. As long as you understand the fact that even though you might really enjoy your shiz, other people migth not. And it's not necessarily good. etc. What? What? I'm hacign a lot of trouble saying what I actually mean today. Stress!!!!!! |

usually i listen to pieces i finished some time ago, because after i'm finished with one i'm too sick of it to listen to it again immediately. you can learn a lot listening to your own music though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I normally listen to it until I get sick of it. That normally tells me if it's any good. If I can keep hearing over and over it's good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
come to think of it, as somebody else once said, "i actually like making music more than the music itself" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I listen to it some times. But idneed only my somewhat older music. I wait with listening to my music always for a little while because only then I can say if it's good or not. If I listen to it immediatly after I made it then I can't form an opinion on it, because I heard it too often at that moment. |
||||||||

I know waht you mean. But I don listen to my own tracks a lot. I remember Jarvis cocker saying he really liked this is hardcore and moby saying he liked 18. People think it's arrogance, but it's not. If you're of a level where you can recreeate the sounds in your head 100% of the time, surely your music should be the music you like most? I know lots of artists whose paintings/sculptures are all over their own houses... Peche Noir: Indeed, vintage own music is the best. if you're going to do your own mastering too it's worth leaving it a month or so... |

OH MY GOD, I COULD NOT BE ANY RIGHTER everytime i post my music everyone changes the subject WHY DON'T YOU JUST SHIT ON ME |
||||||||

i usually listen to my songs heavily, after i have just finished, and im all excited. the test of its a keeper, is if i can listen to it everyday for the next week, and still be proud of it. otherwise it gets reworked/chucked out. then ill listen to my old stuff from time to time. but there is a certain time limit. some stuff is too old, i dont think is as good as my new stuff, and while i listen to it, and have a fondness to it, id rather listen to more recent stuff, because the more recent stuff is that much closer to what im trying to create i try to make every song i make, better then the previous one but i think thats how everyone is |
||||||||

if you don't listen to your own music, i don't want to hear it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also autechre said in some interview the way they approach music creation is to simply make the music they want to hear. it's simple and profound. the artist is creating something where s/he noticed there was something missing. |

doesnt aphex twin listen almost exclusivly to his own music? |
||||||||
|

I have this one ideal style in my head, and the closer I get to that sound the happier I am with the piece. The old stuff never had it, I gradually get closer and closer. Once I perfect that, I won't have anywhere to go. |

Making things you want to hear. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there is always somewhere to go by the time you get to that ideal, your tastes might have altered. it would be a sad day when you reached the point where you dont think you could take it any further |

i listen to my own music all the time. i love it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only occasionally listen to my own music. like most artists, i tend to think my own stuff sucks (whether it be true or not isn't the point). so it's rare for me to actually take a listen to something i've made, at least as far as electronic music goes. i play and write music on my guitar as well, and that i enjoy listening to a lot. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't actually listen to my music because I like it or something, but when I hear my own music I can remember when I made it and for instance how I felt, which is pretty cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its funny to listen to the old stuff, and be like... what the hell was i thinking? i remember thinking this was good! heheh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aphex listens to squarepusher too |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sometimes i listen to my own music and cringe and sometimes i think "Fuck! This is good!" more often than not it's the former though :( |
