i mean. when you make songs, you always make it perfectly for yourself, or do you sometimes make some tunes for a more listeners. i mean i have made a few songs yet, and i don't really like them so much. but some of my friends like it... |

im no perfectionist, but when i like what im doing ill record it. and it looks like this www.mp3.com.au/latenights/ i dont make music to please. i dont think thats best, it stagnates the process of experimenting. but yknow i think that if i like where im at then someone else will |

I make stuff like and don't really care if other people like it or not. Some stuff I've made in the past I don't like anymore though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like about 10% of my tracks a month after making them |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I make stuff I like. Sometimes I do not like my own productions though... But I'd never begin with something "to please others", unless it's a collaboration =) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't spent hours on something I don't like. What's inside comes out in the music you make. It's fun & good therapy and if some others happen to like it, the better. ;) |

I hate most of my songs, I have about 200+ unfinished Songs on my HD |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sometimes I do not like my own productions though = how they turn out when they're done... Sometimes I then remix them, other times I just lost the feeling I had from the begining or got carried away in the wrong direction and can't find my way back, and then I might just aswell start on a new track.... that's how it is for me. |

used to be by the time i finished making a tune i was sick of it. now i can make them a little faster, and occassionally still like them when im finished |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
my songs rule! Cept i cant master them for shit. Doh. And the ammount of copyright infringements is pretty much through the roof, but who's caring? |
||||||||
|

|
|
key_secret: that's exactly how it is for me too. Like you said there are so many directions u can go with the track that it makes my brain hurt. i'm too much of an perfectionist, i get too many ideas and don't know which is the right one to go along with |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
So true. You could fill 2 albums with just one track. :). And if you made your descision witch way to go, you're still doubting going along with it. :) I also spent way to much time one one soundbit and in the end it always comes close to what I got in the beginning. :) It's all a learning process I guess. |
||||||||

|
|
i wouldnt make them if i didnt like them, but i have spent months on certain tracks just cos i cant get that right sound to it. pisses me off a bit. people like them but as long as i like them then thats cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hate them with a passion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Sometimes I think they're great. But usually they are pretty sucky. |

I make them for my own enjoyment anyway, what good is your music if you can't enjoy it in your car. course, can't tell anyone in the car it's you, or, maybe only play it when you're alone :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I make them for myself and for my friend (when collaborating). We have similar tastes in music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think if you don't like your music it's cause yer not making something true to yourself... you're probly just ripping off afx and vsnares |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the stuff I do while making them , but after 10 days or so I'm incredibly ashamed of it, even if my friends like it... I need to improve alot... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the stuff I make is what I like to hear. some tracks I'll like over a longer period of time, others I like but are not great etc. just like other people's music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always think about, does aphex, autechre make their songs for themselves ? i don't think so |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think they do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is what makes them good - they do what they want to do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course they do, every (real) artist does, I think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's difficult to rate your own stuff. You know every bit of it so you can't listen to it with a fresh ear. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah Kill I know what you mean. Especially when I write polyrhythms. I know the structure of the song, I know what to expect and how the song melds together, but I have to wonder if other people do as well when they listen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course I do! If I dislike a track or think it's pointless I just delete it and start a new one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The reason I began making stuff in the first place was to fill a void that I wanted filled.. to make a type of stuff that I could pop into my player and enjoy listening to .. in the process it bacame a much mreo involved process than I originally intended though. :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hate my songs,and most people hate them too.Because I'm crap! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Although I do like certain aspects of my songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
... i do, i realized after a while that i make music for myself and just hope people like it too... i'm about to upload a few new tracks, actually, a soon as i get them from the four track to the computer |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it would be interesting for people to say 'i make my music for OTHERS', because how can you really know someone else? maybe if you make songs through your perspective of OTHERS - then that in itself would still be a bias, no? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
of course, i should add that i'm responding to the subtopic of 'am i making songs for myself or for others' rather than the initial topic of 'do i like the music i make' ... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice question, I was just discussing with a musical m8 of mine, that when I make music it rarely feels like it's really "my kind of music" the way other artists can achieve that. Somehow I'm only sporadically able to create exactly my own musical flavor, so yes I guess I like some of my own music |
