5 Ways To Find Your Sound

you don't find your sound your sound finds you

I think KSHMR said this once: The very small things and habits you have when you produce all add up to your signature sound. For example.... do you stick a kick on the end of your drop? Do you compress your synths in a bus? Do you tend to stutter your melodies a lot? Do you lowpass your bass in the intro? Do you add a small boost at 1K while eqing your vocals? In my opinion, I think very small things like this are what makes us all different from each other. 😃

I found my sound, it was hidden behind the couch.

i love every genre and this puts me in a shitty situation as a producer :/

Heh, my mom also played cumbia growing up! I used to not think much of it as a kid, but nowadays I go days with Los Angeles Azules or Sonora Dinamita on repeat 😆

when i was a kid, my parents had cds with eurodance music and later i was exposed to latin/romanian house music (inna, mr saxobeat, etc) but I liked the beat and synth more than the vocals. when i discovered SHM's song greyhound i fell in love. from then i never went back from edm!

This is good advice for any musician. I played 6 string guitar for 10 years! I was still garbage. I picked up a standard 4 string bass and I've been tearing it up. My music is a part of me. Its crucial that I have music in my life.

Great video Zen!!! Just what i needed!!! I think i am ready to start making complete songs and this tips help alot!!!

Love you dude! Your advice always gets me motivated to produce in the mornings.

#2 is a really good tip, a few months ago I switched from progressive house to trap, because I really felt really limited in that style and now I'm full of fresh ideas for new tracks

*Has been listening to hardstyle since fifth grade* Go back to listening to the music you listened to in high school.

I am an indie guitar singer songwriter who plays jazz saxophone and is studying classical violin and likes to sing neo soul/rnb. When I’m writing there is rarely some music to reference to see if I’m doing it right so you just have to be confident enough to lose sight of the shore and build an island.

I come from screamo hardcore bands and fell in love with Dnb and all edm ...so now I don't listen to anything but my own music and I love it ,I do it to stay original as much as possible

Inspiring man. I was always on the fence between genres, interesting to know these artists indirectly forged their own genres by doing their own thing.

Perfectly good tips, nice job Zen!

Nice! You clarified this out really well

The last one is working for me 😋 to be honest producing is really just a really cool and creative way for me to get my feeling and ideas into reality . so having fun is supposed to cover the whole process of making my track unique , that when I listen to it I should be like "yeeah this is is good" or "I like that a lot" ... because the more I feel like the track is going were I feel it should then I'm happy . thank you for the great advice ma man ✌👦

Thanks! Bro! I love the last tip bro! Having fun! A lot of people give up under stress :)

such a good and helpful video, thanks

Thanks bro for always helping!!!

Zen good as always Bro. Was really inspiring.

Wow, you are so awesome. I saw your video's about experience from another producers, but I stuck with finding my own sound. I am afraid, because I sometimes use mainstream samples like the flanger uplifter, VES2 Impact 34 and stuff.. Now the key is just: *combine*, thank you for giving me so much inspiration.

Cheers Zen World you have inspired me a lot!

Favorite tip: to have fun! The moment i have fun and dont give a. f*** about what anybody think is when i will find my sound and i will have fun making music😍

Just be you and do what you like. Too many of us are worried that we are not going to fit in, because we don't sound like everybody else. I don't want to sound like anybody else. I want to sound like me...SBN

"Listen to what you listened at high school" Lol, I haven't even finished middle school

amazing

Which is that awesome track playing in the background? I need to check it out right now!

love thoses tips bro! but what's the music at 5.06 i was looking for it haha :)

❤

3:33 I was there at Sunburn!

need that background track!!

I'm literally just waiting for everything. I have my own sound and everything. Running out of time too.

bass house was made in the uk and it was called bassline in the early 2000s

"Go back to what you listened to in highschool" Thats was during the dubstep boom haha!

Nice one

the last one

number 5, thats the main ingridiant in life ;-) have fun.

I have an issue with this subject because I'm into every music genre. My main thing is that my music will have lyrics, not just instrumental. But that's it. I listen to house, rap, pop, indie, country, rap.... idek what i want to make, it's overwehlming to commit to one.

can you link the background music? first and last track they lit as😈

Whats the song in the video? Very nice and bouncy with that heavy detune

i wanna know how to get personally mentored by Zen?????

what can i do to transfer the old genre to the new one, everythings been done, progressive house to deep house, well thats essentially future house. what about progressive to trap, well that's essentially future bass.

Lol, I'm not good at sounding good sonicly, I usually have a good idea but I end up failing on the actual making it part. But I'm still new since it's only been like 8 months since I started so I probably still have a lot of practice ahead.
