Hi there guys im new here so hello to all. basically over a long period of time on and off i have produced a couple of tracks on fl studio of the drum and bass and grime genres, obviously i'm not happy with my work so gave up before.
been trying to get back into it recently and i only know so much about production and fl studio,
fl studio is my preferred DAW
obviously compression is a big key to making nice, punchy beats which is what i do
but elsewhere i am lacking in knowledge. i know my way around fl but thats about it, more music theory maybe?
But i feel i'm at a point where i'm stuck. i get so much inspiration from the music that i love but i can't express that into production properly due to my skill level...
there is where i'm shouting out to you lovely people!
i need to learn chords and keys better i know that for a fact,
and definitely eqing also...
I have followed guides to writing these styles of tunes on youtube but as you all probably know copying someones notes from a guide to make your own tunes is not unique at all, i'm a little frustrated at it so turned here!
i understand there will be a lot of information here which i am going to sit and digest every night. really motivated by skepta's new konnichiwa album!
some of my main motivations are also liquicity and general grime music...
can put up my soundcloud if this helps some of you may laugh haha but gotta start somewhere...
I also dj as a hobby on my old numark mixtrack pro haha but looking to up my game now!
so hopefully i posted this in the right place, any advice or better ways of learning appreciated, and i looking forward to hearing from some of you!
