3:24 It's also the same thing with promoting your music, some people will give great ideas for promoting while others would say it's a bad idea for promoting. The best case is you pick a path and stick too it, you can only do so much "preparation" as an artist, the best way to learn is by doing it... SO DO IT.
The great thing about making music is that due to how many moving parts it has, there's always room for progress Rhythm Sound Selection/Design Structure Melodies Scale knowledge Harmony Time Signatures Mixing Layering Knowing how to adapt to new bpms, genres and moods Counterpoint Learning to be varied so not all songs in the album sound the same And add lyrics if it's not instrumental I've released 3 albums, each of them was leagues above the prior in terms of the average track. I'm working on the 4th album and that one seems like it will be a wild jump in quality too, even transitioning from amateur album with some charms to an intermediately competent album. I'm already preparing for the 5th album which I'll plan to collaborate with singers so it isn't just instrumental, and I believe that will be another quality jump. If someone reading this needs a tip, is to adopt my album formula. Make 80 minutes of music, grab the best 40-70 minutes (depending on how much you're proud of) then package it as an album. You do not need to be a supreme producer to make an album, yes there are a lot of legendary albums, but there are also horrible ones. There's a lot of amateur producers who feel like they're too bad to make an album but there's no cops that will arrest them if they release a bad album. The reason why that's good is because it's hard to analyze your progress if you're releasing music individually in sequence. Once you package many tracks in a whole album it's much easier to see the jump in quality.
