How do you rate your tunes?

I think production is like any art...

You learn the skills to give your creativity the best chance.

The more technical knowledge you gain, the less the boundaries are on creativity...

...its a balance.

The thing is, your tunes are not for you to rate. You make music. You get better, yet you're never satisfied because you KNOW you can do better next time. That's what keeps people going. It's the same as art. What you're searching for is elusive as all hell. You may never get there and if you do, it's all over anyway. If you're truly satisfied with your own work, there's no need to make any more. You won't want to make any more.

Rating is for other people to do.

Sometimes you make something and hate it, but others like it.

Sometimes you pour your soul into something and nobody likes it but you.

Sometimes you throw some shit together in an hour and people are all over it, loving it.

It's unfathomable and that is sometimes what is so great about it.

true all that, but i make music for that moment just as the arrangement takes it's shape and the tune emerges from the mess, if i get that rushing feeling then i know i've made a decent tune.
