This is another amazing lesson. The very first thing I recognized was/is the quality of the audio when you are speaking during the lesson. It's obvious you are at a high level. You have an amazing future ahead of you for sure. I am on the bandwagon.
Dear Liina, energy is not only in your arrangement, but in your way of teaching as well. You are so so inspiring ❤️💪🏼
Aw thanks 😊
This video makes me want to blow up the preliminary arrangement idea I had in my head. That's what we're here for, right? 😅 Ps. Thanks for the showcase. ❤
Hah sorry and you’re welcome 😂❤️
You earned it.👍

I was subscribed to you 2 years ago from another account, but the war started in my country and I became a soldier, so I didn't do music at all, because I'm defending my native home. I just saw your video in my recommendations and I realized with a smile that I missed you) thanks for continuing to do it!
I am so happy that my videos can bring you something positive in the middle of horrible things.
Excellent! This is precisely the type of spare time project I'm into at the moment. More new ways to learn. Thanks :-)
Awesome Enjoy!
Did you use all stock ableton synths and effects?
As for the sharing part: Two issues I encounter:
1. I have a nice idea, a riff, a rhythm, or I just start with a beat. Mostly late in the evening. I add a bass, I add some chords, some other things and I'm freaking out, find it hard to switch it off. The next day I turn my PC and want to listen my great track. To find myself hugely disappointed. There's two reasons for this, my brain tells me. The first is making the track with headphones (late at night, neighbors), the second is. I guess. at the moment I add an extra part I already know the existing ones by heart, each new contribution is build on common ground. It is a embellishment of what is already there. The next days all parts compete from the start. The groove brutally pushes away the tinkering from my field of focus. The tinkering seduces me to ignore the beat. And everything sounds so messy at once. What pill should I take, doctor LNA? Am I the only one?
2. Watching your (or other) videos, or trying to create something I'm confronted with some technique or aspect I'm not familiar with, I don't understand, I don't master, I only vaguely heard of or I even didn't know it existed. For instance this week, parallel compression. So I dive into this topic. Of course I know the Goethe thing, the mastery shows in the limitations, let's rephrase it as 'real creativity shows in using as little tools as possible', but I find it hard to resist. It's more of an achievement to use only one drum kit, only a 106 plugin and one bass. And doesn't mastering a new technique take me away from that agonizing challenge? Let me learn to master a tool to stay a way from the blank canvas! Plugcrastination!
The beat goes on, but only when this fight is over.
Answer to second point:
No one knows everything and no one has all the tools. When you create, focus on the things you already know and tools you have. On a separate time/day go trhough you list of things you want to learn.
You not knowing something is only limiting to your creativity when you think knowelledge is more valuable than exploration. If kids create/sing/draw without knowelledge, so can we. Just play and have fun. ❤
Hi! Answer to first one:
No your not the only one feeling this. It’s very familiar to me and many others. I would assume we feel this as we our expectations don’t always match yet our developing skills and also the outcome we want for it. We make, add, add and add hoping it would sound me interesting, ”professional” and bigger etc. We get lost in the million options, tools and plugins. And we get lost in our creativity, getting anxcious of our skills and vs what our goals are. That is why this challenge is not about outcome, but about the process. So when you feel dissapointed, let yourself feel it and then remind yourself that you can’t fail in this. There is no test and no one to measuire how well you did your creativity. Remind yourself that you need to trust the process and that you don’t need to like the track all the time. No artist loves each thing they do. You are not responsibe of the ideas that come trhough you. Let them out and then solve them like a puzzle. Be kind to yourself and be patient. You got this.
Also next steps are alot more about this topic so keep at it ❤️
There is a great tune called "The Beat Goes On" by The Whispers. Its obscure, check it out and thanks for reminding me of it.
@@dqbeasley I hadn't a particular song in mind, but the phrase brings into my mind (I had to look it up) Sonny & Cher. But I do know the Whisper's song (when I heard it).😉
@@dqbeasley I just found the bass line in And the beat goes on is by Carol Kaye. Everyone here would benefit from watching some video about/with her.
