Haha the duckface is on point in the thumbnail Yalcin 😂. Also: good video man, great work! Another interesting thing about Vincent Van Gogh is that he started painting 🎨 when he was 30 🤯. He had only studied and read about art up until that point in his life before his brother had him omitted to an psychiatric hospital/asylum due to him having many psychotic breakdowns (people think he had Borderline which was not discovered at point in time). The hospital was a progressive establishment for its time though and they treated patients in a very humane way. His brother begged the doctors to let Vincent paint as he knew it made him happy and he paid them enough to open a painting room just for him. Vincent then proceeded to paint every day for a year which was all of the time he spent there. He made Starry Night 🌃 and many other famous paintings in that very room. Lessons that you could take from this: If you love something it's never too late to start doing it. Practice makes perfect. And love from family and people can aid someone a long way ❤️☮️. He was very happy when he stayed there and sure he wasn't famous for his time but his art echoes through out eternity so that we can enjoy it and learn from his journey.

Just because BPD hadn't been discovered yet doesn't mean it didn't exist. You think you need modern psychology to be able to understand humans? That no one knew what they were talking about in regards to human behavior until people started writing books about it in the late 1800s? I'm pretty sure even 2000 years ago humans could tell if something was off in another human.

Interesting - I got back into music at 40, with no formal training or background in music theory. I had experience Sequencing Audio from 1992, using a program called OctaMed, & a few years DJ experience. I find it fascinating that a penniless & Hungry Impressionist conforms to the popular archetypal "Starving Artist." Folks assume that if you're not a WEALTHY Musician, then you must be a POOR (bad) Musician.

also he was fortunate to being able to do art, and the bills where paid by his brother...bug big help...some artists have to work hard to pay bills and free time is all to art

@dreamlandsociety5842 2 года назад

As someone who has struggled with this "caught in a loop" thing for years, I can say this video is very helpful. I found my way out by bruteforcing through some Arrangements, while giving zero fucks about the outcome or if the initial idea is good enough. If it sucked I just moved on to the next and then the next. Now it is a lot easier and almost all loops get at least arranged. I found also that often the seemingly "bad" ideas turned out to be quite good and more fun when arranged. And vice versa. I think if you love your initial idea too much it makes it harder to make the right decitions, regarding deleting or replacing certain elements. Trust the Process... and thanks Yalcin for your wonderful work.

@rtdude1 2 года назад

You mentioned that loving your original idea too much can make it hard to make the right decision. This has proven to be 100% true for me. I find that I am scared to do anything for fear that I will mess up what I like and I end up setting it aside and starting something new… I have been thinking I need to start doing what you did and brute force them into an arrangement and not worry about it. Thanks for sharing this.

@RicardoSilva-jj6rg 2 года назад

Auxiliary Hook is something I have not yet considered in my 30+ years of producing electronica. well done!

@Rhekluse 2 года назад

I love that you share your insights on not only the technical sides of production but the psychological side as well. It's important to look at every studio session as 'practice' even if nothing super productive comes out of it. It's unrealistic to expect a releasable tune every time you open the DAW, in turn potentially creating a stressful & unenjoyable creative experience.

Such a great variety of examples to what you are explaining, also great visualisations to support the statements. I Can't imagine the amount work that goes into your videos. Thank you!

@nativitymusic 2 года назад

Just finished my 76 original tonight since 2019. And yeah the only way to get better is to finish and export then take it to your DJ rig and test it out with your other favorite tracks. The more you finish the better you'll get and the more confident you'll be. Everything you said in this video rings true to me. Esp the less is more. Tracks I was finishing and releasing 8 yrs ago had way too many elements and I would always force the mix instead of just finding/sticking to sounds that i really loved and that complimented each other naturally. Recently my objective is to finish the track with no more than 15 tracks/parts/layers. Focusing on getting a really really infectious groove and then automating the hell out of every little detail to make it sound different as the song plays. [Bonus tip: I usually work in 2hr chunks + taking 1 - 2 hr breaks to reset my ears/mind before going back in] Lastly, something i learned a while ago on the Arrangement process. I used to never finish tracks and would just have a whole bunch of grooves. Then I saw a video where a producer just took their favorite track at the moment and flushed out the arrangement in Ableton w/ each layer [just empty midi] and notated on the top "intro, build, 1st drop, 1st break, etc" until the end. Once I figured that out it really helped me finish songs and not get stuck w/ just a loop. Good luck. Keep on creating!

@C1Nuke 5 месяцев назад

@@jakubsz86 If you can't finish a track, just do it. How? *It doesn't matter how, just do it!* The more you do (something in the project), the faster you will come to the finish line - you will be able to finish the track. If it is *very* difficult, you can "imitate" how others overcome this process: kick, bass, sub, hats, track 1, 2, etc. Just make more movements, because *life requires movement.* Aristotle

A great video as always! Thanks for that! I'm struggling since days coming up with new ideas,... or, I have Ideas in my head but can not transfer them into Ableton. But this video shows again myself: "You're on the right track!", and "Your doing the things right!". Sometimes I forget this and then I find myself in trouble with one of my weakness (mixing the low end) and I'm paralized for days,... but with no new idea transformend into Ableton, no chance to work on the low end,.... anyway. A really good video wich inspires to trust into the period when it seesm nothing "good" is happening... because after this perion I found myself that I have improved something. Thanks!
