I believe Eric Cartman said it best, "Real guitars are for old people."
Is that from the guitar quiro episode? Downlink doesn't know how to play piano, So I guess I have a chance haha ( although he may have learned).
yeah my comment was meant to incite controversy cause I'm sure a good number of 'big names' in edm can't play an instrument.

When you have been working on a track for weeks, and put 100's of hours into it, and the only comment you get is from sexy girlbot.

I missed the "a" out there. I was on about them spambots on sc, not someone called "sexy girlbot" :lol:

I don't give a shit about sc, I only use it to listen to other peoples new stuff nowadays, I ain't uploaded anything in over a year. I just follow the people, I like, and comment when I have something to say, and fav if I dig something. I don't really give a shit about my sc stats, I get jackshit plays etc every week, and thats the way I like it :D

Edit: I have never had a comment by a "sexy girlbot" :(

Acoustic instruments are an obsolete technology...worth learning, but still obsolete.

No one even knows I make music. I think my brother knows, and maybe 1 or 2 of my friends. This is more because of my insecurity than anything though. But I also know that most of my friends would never like anything that I make cause I know what kind of music they do like. It's not really a promising venture for me.

Personally I don't think the issue is knowing when you suck, it's knowing when you don't suck. I feel 90% of what I make is garbage and the other 10% is "meh". I don't need soundcloud statistics or youtube plays to know that. But I'm perfectly ok with it. It's part of what drives me to get better.

When your daw hates you and won't even open for you cause the track sucked so bad.

@JBE your tunes sound find imo, better than mine for sure, just need a little more swing & Some more bass weight, maybe go outta your way to try a tune you can dance to at a club? Not sure only heard some of your stuff, most of it is pretty chilled out, I like it though. :Q:

I end up making something half meh at best... But yeah, it drives me to get better as well.
I think learning all the foundations of music and DAW helps me progress a lot faster too.

At what they do.
I'm sure you're ridiculously talented at something?
Even if it is playing with yourself.
