Make & finish a tune a week

At least.

Once you've improved your workflow, then you can work on sound design.

Bullshit.

Make a few audio projects every hour. Use them for nothing. Write one siiiick EP every quarter. Promote it like hell.

[bassinine]

be like water.

enough bruce lee, time to hit the studio - since my workflow is probably the worst out of any producer, evar.

Perfect example. Sick tunes. Fuck quanity driven workflow.

Matter of discipline. The habit builds and the skill increases.

I feel like I should spend alot longer on something then a week regardless... EP every quarter, pour your everything into em, promote em hard, people will like you more.

It's a learning tool - can aid with speeding up workflow if required

nb; wasn't referring to releasing tunes.

a tune a week is a good start.

at the root of this is the fact that you're not a producer if you don't produce anything.

A weeks time is plenty, often times i need to turn one out in an evening
this is very good advice though. just for the mindset of realistic goal setting & completion
a tune's project file is worthless to 99% of the world
once you get it down to 2track, then you've got something

Oh... okay you threw me off haha...

Humbug. The project file, made, that audio file... so yeah. They care.

i agree that it is a good idea to focus heavily on arrangment and finishing songs the sound design will come along the way. if you can't actually write a tune your teebee clone bassline is pretty worthless. Imo a well arranged and writen tune can make up for a lack of interesting sounds.

I don't have time - as hard as I try, it's incredibly hard at the moment to find time to produce music.

Every spare second I have, though....I'm on it.

i wish people cared
i guess in theory if people liked a track, then by extension they care about the fact it was created
but still... not many people have much interest in its life as a project file

I make an 8 bar loop a day, always trying to use different techniques I've never done before.

[virks]

people,focus life-look the sun,smell flowers,kiss your girlfriend,send textmessage to
your grandmother,respect nature-after that make your loops,tunes...result=more life,better tunes.

At the end of the year, you can have 52 tracks. People ask "What did you do in 2012?" and I send them a ZIP file

[CaveLvl]

I like that. Nice and simple., But for me, If im not feelin a groove its sound design time and cleaning up samples files etc until a song or groove jumps in.. Strike when iron is hot

Wub, what did you do in 2011?
