how to find "your sound" as an artist 

Only just stumbled across your videos, but the quality of your content is already abundantly clear! Please keep doing what you're doing!

As someone who can't decide between folk, dance, rnb, artpop and techno; this was super inspiring to see, big thanks. And that demo track was absolutley fire

None of us interpret music the same due to nature, nurture, and how our brains perceive the world. I started playing guitar to play rock and punk...As I developed, what I thought I wanted, I was trying to force upon myself. It turns out I excel at R&B and Neo-Soul genres, and I fell in love with it. Not that I can't play Metal or Rock, I can just enter a state of flow with R&B instantly. Excellent video!

You're crazy talented, thanks for the advice

I’m currently in love with k pop and Korean hip hop but I also love Japanese rock and metal and different American rock bands and English rock bands. I love hip hop I love soul music and jazz. I don’t know how to make music because I can’t decide between them and song writing is so hard and beat making is so hard to do when I have so many influences. This video was definitely very encouraging thank you so much 🙏🙏

The universe provides us with healthy passions for the purpose of making great music and create, good point 👍

It’s great to see the way that you use different genres to create your style. I think my style will eventually be mixing orchestral, rock/metal guitars, and risers/FXs. After watching this, I have to see how you make vocal shots. That was awesome. I could see that in an action track as well.

It all makes sense now! I absolutely see those three styles in your mixes. Another great video, it’s given me some things to ponder!

Just have fun with it. What was fun yesterday may not be fun today and that's okay.

U SHOULD BE A LABEL A&R FR

This was very encouraging and helpful :) The mix you gave as an example was just absolutely shnasty

Dude - Great topic for a video that I've not seen before! The Ven diagram is brilliant - never thought of using that before but it makes so much sense!

Dude, that’s actually helped, thanks 👍

Thanks, I needed this! Btw, the song is siiiicckkkkk!

Excellent video, deserves a lot of views.

Great advice! Thanks for sharing your experience with us :) My friends in highschool hated that I'm switching genres in matter of weeks, but I never gave up and now I can create for example, an 80's sounding disco-pop track with elements of jazz, funk, trap and metal that still sounds fresh.. Production is all about style and creativity, but technical knowledge is a must if you ask me. Gotta know all about that sweet gear 😅

Something I have been struggling with a bit lately even after producing music for years, but this is a good reminder to continue to go down the rabbit holes and make progress without overthinking. Funny enough though, what you said actually starts happening automatically over time and you start blending various elements subconsciously in the effort to create a certain sound. So the takeaway I think is to keep making music and not worry too much about the genre. Great perspective and interesting video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, appreciate it.

Steve Jobs was the Fonz! Now it all makes sense.

Really fuck with your vids, man. Really informative! Thank you for sharing!

I WATCHED THIS VIDEO & THE HATING YOUR VOICE 1. KEEP GOING BRO UR CONTENT FYE & EXTREMELY HELPFUL.

Started out influenced by metal, nu-metal, post/prog rock. My life needed more chill and less chaos so got into acoustic finger style and my current interests and what I’m working on are blues travis picking stuff, slow blues playing changes and Pink Floyd style progressions. My lead skills still need work but something good will come of it I’m sure. If I locked myself into a genre I would lose passion for it no doubt.

I struggled with finding my sound for about 20 years. Im into super modern metal but also grew up on nu metal and og deathmetal. I ended up finding my sound but now where im in a wierd spot where my music isnt heavt enough to be dsathcore but is way too heavy to gain much traction. But it sounds different so thats neat :)

Linkin Park eill forever be the band that introduced me to genre blending. BMTH is always gonna be a part of it too, but in my personal journey linkin park has definitely shined in the rabbit hole.

DON'T MEAN TO COME OFF LIKE A WEIRDO WITH O'D COMMENTING BUT UR MUSIC TOUGH🤧

Got your email.

Steve jobs finish that anecdote saying "And because apple had the first fonts and MICROSOFT COPIED APPLE, we all have fonts" Which Steve doesnt aknowledge is that Microsoft copied apple and still reigns over the market. So at the end, it only matters if you are good enough, unlike apple.
