Oh you will do it wrong, and youll feel that way until you realise theres no way to do it wrong, because it should only sound good to you. Correct me if im wrong, but im only a perfectionist when it comes to things other people might see or interact with. Im terrible with selfcare, i cook food that tastes bad, terribly schedule things so it feels like i have no time when i do. I just do it anyways. It's no different with music. Make it badly, and make it for yourself

Thankyou, it had definitely expired before I remixed it

It's LABS, because LABS is the goat

I apologise for the effect it may have had on you but I will never apologise for sharing music that genuinely moves me and touches my soul

First of all, thankyou for sharing that. I think I can relate in some ways and others may relate too. If you think about it, making music is taking the entire spectrum of frequencies people can hear, and individually affecting every single one to arrange something that would somehow meet some standard we could call music (which is different to everyone btw). The task of starting is gargantuan when you put it like that, but I don't believe it to be an inherent trait of anybody to "want to make music but being intellectually incapable". Its hard, it's confusing, and it's so much at once. I understand your frustration. There's not much advise I can give you around that, but I'm working on a tutorial for people in your similar situation because I've given people the mindset and drive to make music with this video, but I've kinda sent them off a cliff without wings.

Secondly, you cannot create in a vacuum. Creating something is inherently an expression of yourself, and by extension based on things you've heard and seen or been prompted with. There is absolutely no shame in gathering inspiration from outside sources, I literally say to steal in the video. I am shameless because I know other artists are shameless too. You steal enough from the things only you could have lived through, a combination of things only you could enjoy, then how could somebody say that the things you create aren't yours?

@@wallflwr_ see, you're implying that i'm in vacuum when i've heard dozens of THOUSANDS of tracks, hundreds of different artists from any possible genres and subgenres, i've listened to THOUSANDS of the albums, and then you're saying i haven't put enough in my brain, you seems to not understand what's my problem.

BRAKENCE FANS WELCOME THANKYOU KIND SIR

Comparison is the thief of joy. If you're having troubles comparing yourself to others and not liking that you're not at that level, telling you to stop that probably wouldn't be helpful. What I do is take that energy to learn, grow, be inspired. Instead of "why isn't my music as good as theirs" (*ahem* brakence), it's realising that I love these artists and their music because it's true to them. I wouldn't love other artists like verzache and novo amor if they all sounded like brakence. And from that point, I don't compare, I steal the parts I like, I steal what I'm capable of until I'm a collage of all these other peoples techniques and my own experiences and voice. You eventually become so different, you'll realise that you can't compare yourself to them in the same way you wouldn't compare an apple to flex tape. If you liked the music in this video and our spotify, that's all it is. Hope this helps.

Definitely a whole ass journey though

Epico comment

Thankyou for sharing! I've heard from a lot of people in situations similar to yours, so trust me you're not alone. Everyone hates their beats and music the day after, I guarantee it. I call it "post beat clarity". Don't focus on the future, remove external pressures, just capture yourself and the moment in your music. This isn't advice for how to be successful because God knows I know nothing about that. This is about loving what you're doing in the moment, expressing yourself, and if you get good enough to capture how you feel in a moment, it's a beautiful thing to listen back on. I love creating as a hobby because I can go back to something like our twenty//20 album and recognise all the feelings and situations I went through were real, but also how far I've grown from them. Maybe it's not about making something other people think is good or you think is good, maybe it's just about making something. Food for thought

Thankyou! It's the trauma

I relate heavy. Our first ep, we were so done with it we skimped on mixing by the time it released. The brain is like a muscle, and the heavier the expectations you hold for your music the more tiring it will be for your mind, until you burnout. It sounds rough but im glad you got into something music adjacent, game sound design sounds like a dream to me tbh. Hopefully when you pick up music again it isn't a weight, but rather a 300cc cocktail of steroids and preworkout injected directly into your bloodstream that you love doing. No expectations though

I mean... I hoped the people who had reasons that could be described as "fuckass" would notice.

Thanks bro, w comment

Now we gotta get these other needs to start too

Hey if you don't make any music, at least you got something out of it

Was I that obvious? I thought I hid it so well...

@@wallflwr_ studied brakence sm can recognise it from anywhere 🤣😋anyways bro sick song if u open for collab or something it will be even sicker haha

Always down to make stuff, jump in the discord and we'll see if we can work something out

Capture that love, that's how you make the best music.

Awesome to hear about your journey, thanks for sharing. Hopefully there's more to hear soon

I'm glad to hear that, thanks for watching

There's another artist on Spotify called wallflwr. I think the guy in this video kinda sounds like them

I'm glad it made you feel that way since I didn't know how to talk about it

Thankyou thankyou thankyou, my style reminds me of a teacher marking a terribly written essay where I'm just drawing over stuff to correct myself

@@wallflwr_ HELPPP 😭😭 NO ITS WONDERFUL

I'm glad you enjoy. A+ for you

I was born in the cringe, mouldy from it or whatever the saying is

I don't trust the tastes of people who aren't

@@wallflwr_ preach twin

Yeah but we don't talk about it anymore since the new version came out

I hope this means you're out there somewhere making cool shit

@ thank you, i hope it will be

@@wallflwr_your cover at the end felt rlly good to listen to with headphones, i need this as an 8D audio

Full things on soundscloud if you're interested, definitely one of my favs

No YOURE the homie. Glad you liked

plsplsplsplsplsplspls join the discord and drop the link I would love to listen

yeah thankyou for that, I took some time pouring hella love into it and I'm glad it showed

Agree its not the best place to start music, that would be the plethora of incredible tutorials on UA-cam. I think what's missing here is the sort of mindset to get into it, and I suck at production so this is the only way I could help other people get into something I love so much

I'm so glad you enjoyed, it really is a whole new level of appreciation once you start making it and can appreciate how every single wavelength for every single second of a song is intentional. It's a beautiful thing I recommend everyone try

if you wanna start you can join us in discord and I might put out a tutorial on how to use a DAW to start if that helps

Thanks for joining the discord, we'll make some cool shit together

ask ariel he mixed the shit out of them

Who dog is that

just so you know when you're yelling at me this is the dog that you're yelling at 😨😭😥😵😵‍💫😪

That's ruff

AWOOOOOOOOOga

Thanks for that boss, I reckon I'm appropriately rated I just managed to find something I care about to talk about

@@wallflwr_ it's good to know that you are doing what you love, keep on the good work mate, you just earned a new subscriber

Will do my best, seems like a good strategy is to just put love out there to to get it back

Also it helps you make concious stylistic decisions that provoke a specific emotive feel, instead of just "feeling it out" which can often lead to samey choices across several different songs.

Oh no i definitely agree, I would recommend for everyone to learn about music theory if they can. It's just never the first thing I would suggest somebody do if they wanted to get into making music. I think consciously listening to music and searching for chords/melodies that are interesting to you, rather than what's easier to make or the default can avoid that samey problem. Personally, exploring music is part of the joy of making it, and so if you focus on loving music in that way rather than the love of having a finished product, you'll end up with something interesting. I think that's why broadly speaking in my videos we make a range of music ( it also definitely helps to have ariels taste influence the music when he's mixing and Mastering as well though)

Thankyou for your thoughts though, it's probably definitely helpful for people who would like to approach it in a more structured way, which is awesome too. Anything to get people started

Appreciate it boss, put a lot of love into it

I'm scared and afraid. Am I the big boi bass? Or are you wishing harm on the bass, separate from me?

I forgotten what I've said in this video

I'm glad to hear it! We've got a discord in the description if you ever need any more help with stuff
