How Long Did It Take You To Actually Get "Good" At Producing

[JimmaJamJamie]

I've been producing for just under a year now and still don't feel I am any good.
I am improving everytime I make a song though. I have always said that once I get a physical release I will feel like I am good then.

I can't wait for that day, to have your own song on Vinyl in your hand .

Its taken me 3-4 years to get to the standard im at now...

Im being played by dj's and have my first physical release dropping in Feb

Keep up the hard work people. I feel like i have only just begun!

Trust me you have just began! Your work is immense, to expand your target audience maybe you should look into some deep "dubstep" ? You said your going to have your first physical release dropping in Feb ? Which songs are they going to be?

Keep crafting Depone!

Cheers Nitz!

The two that are due for release are A/ "Oldskool Dub" and B/ "Eskimo Jam"

I have just finished a deeper subby track actually mang! Check it
Soundcloud

You made my day when you said that yesterday ! I always wanted Oldskool Dub (i think personally its your best song) to get released and always said i wanted it to win the carbon logic comp so you get a release for it but nevertheless "Break The Seal" got up there!

I cant want for the release of that, defo buy!

I think i have forgot what "Eskimo Jam" sounds like but "Oldskool Dub" is still there so its all good for me!

Large up Depone

About 3 years. My biggest improvements came when I started being a bit more disciplined and aimed to make finished songs instead of the usual 8 bar loop thing.

After a year and a 5 months making beats i have plenty of stuff i am proud of and happy with. Got far to go to get to where i want tho.

Been producing for 10 years... but have been a musician for 25.

Every day is filled with blood, sweat and tears... and the opportunity to look back on what has worked, what hasn't, and how I can improve.

To be a true pro producer, you have to combat the scales of better production values = less creativity, as another poster said. It's so true it's scary.........................

[Okota]

The first couple of tracks I made about a year ago were pretty horrendous. I had a problem with finishing a track caus I just wasn't happy with it. I was producing every day but in the first six months only finished two songs! Reading through these sorta forums has helped a lot with my production though, and recently I've been happy with my tunes. At this stage I care more about the production quality than the song itself, then once Ive got up to a good production level I can focus more on song arrangement/harmony etc...

so true!!

[p.t.b.d]

ive been producing allmost 2 years
im only 15 and have a long way to go yet, but my tunes are pretty allright
well better than anyone else ive ever heard my age producing

but thats because generally theyre all using fruty loop presets and trying to be the new basshunter

[tripwire22]

its going to be year soon and ive been working really hard so i think in maybe another year and a half i should be well on my way toward what i want .... a vinyl with my name on it by tectonic...

[sqyttles]

I started producing hip-hop when I was 15 because I loved making my friends mix CDs. Then I got distracted with school, work, a social life and more. Now I am getting back into it at 23, but I've been DJing for the last 3 years so I know better what type of music I want to make. I also understand a lot more about music theory than I did.

[Wrigzilla]

Define 'good'...

I've been producing electronic music for 2 1/2 years now and messing about with recording and production for rock based stuff for a year before that. I'm certainly a lot better than when I started (I sometimes look back to tunes I did a year ago and wonder what I was thinking) but I've still got a long way to go.
