I started when I was about 16, it was just the only way I could express certain emotions, I felt relieved after every time I did it so I kept on going. Now it's becoming a job
So, how bout you?
So, how bout you?
music is one of the only things i can talk honestly about my feelings and no getting picked on as much. lol
Because I've always had a knack, and now I want a hobby where I have a chance at being commercially successful, so why not start where you have a bit of natural talent?. You know how some kids were just better at a subject in school than others, Advanced English really just seemed easy for me, and I couldn't understand how anyone could possibly fail it. I struggled with other subjects, but just found words easy. I liked witty hip hop, and could always remember lyrics better than anyone I knew, I guess the structure and composition of lyrics just fits well in my brain, so I said "I want to do that."
sounds good, just remember that it doesn't only take talent, it takes a lot of effort too!
I understand that, I'm just doing the equivalent of a tall guy signing up for the basketball team. I might be all thumbs when it comes down to it, but I've got a pretty solid plan and I'm pushing production and songwriting right up there on my priorities list. Hell. It's my birthday, I just did a 10 hour shift and still did 4 hours of music production study. If I can keep the commitment up there, I think I'll do alright!
I'm not entirely sure, at the beginning it could have been for the feeling you get when you're in the zone or perhaps i just wanted to create something i could be proud of or maybe even to escape from reality, reasons change as you progress.
I started writing songs because all of my friends were musicians and I saw the excitement and enthusiasum they had doing it. I wanted to have as much fun as they did so I started doing it myself and now we all make music together.
that's what im talking about !!! keep expressing yourself broI think I'm trying to get the world inside my head for other people to experience.
I'm just a track/beat maker/sound designer/sampler and using an maudio 88es piano for really simple riffs and melodies and chords with overdubbing doesn't count as "full on" writing in my opinion. So Instead of going farther with that, I decided recently to just take the shortcut route and learn more about notation, everything not just where all the notes are on the staffs everything, like portamento/glissando and all those terms for quavers and stuff.
I have drums and all that other crap down but what I really want to learn outside comfort zones is to just put down melodies I hear in my head, the ones that are more complex than simple long notes and chords and riffs and I think learning more about sheet music would make that a thing.
