i like how you take a break when you get stuck to allow more ideas to come to you. well done!
Hi Owen, thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. Super nice surprise 🙋🏻♀️✨
Treating music production like a workout is a great life hack. Results may not come in an instant, but we’re getting better in each day.
🙌🙌🙌 exactly :D
You're creative process is awesome! Thanks for putting this video together and sharing this! Can't wait until you grow beyond 120 YT Subscribers!
Thank you J. Etienne :D turning some 1 minute songs into complete songs this summer. Am nervous but also curious to see what happens. Hope you are having a good day so far 🙋🏻♀️✨
Very nice video, I resonate with your process quite a bit. Nicely done! Looking forward to more videos :)
Thank you Mark. I am currently turning a 1 minute song into a single and am approaching it the same way. So far so good. Have a super duper day 🙋🏻♀️✨
this is so inspiring actually. never thought of putting on 1 minute song ideas
I hope you give it a go.. :)
Great video, thanks for sharing your process! Keep it up
Thank you for watching. Really appreciate it & your words of support 🙏🙋🏻♀️✨
Nice stuff! Currently in a creative rut for sometime and this made me stop overthinking much. You also seem really chill😊. Can't wait for another one.
Thank you for watching Cedd. Happy to hear my video may have helped you out a bit. I really hope you rise out of your rut soon and find your music flow again. Take care.
This is helpful. Please, more videos about your work processes.

I can often be counted on to be pretty resourceful when it comes to the "getting something to eat" part 🙂 … Seriously, this was inspiring to getting me back to turning on the Macintosh again and diving back into Logic, thank you!

Love your workflow,thanks for the video. Hope to make a track with you.
Thank you :) who knows, may be one day we will make a track together. I am focussing on my own music for now but I do love a collab. Take care & thanks again. 🙋🏻♀️✨
@@akers_musicIt would be awesome to create a track with you. I truly understand that you are focussing on your own music now.. Wish you all the best, Tslk to you soon ...Tdke care🎉
SOUNDS FIRE!!!! NICE WORK - How do I go about listening to the rest of this one please. please and thank you
Hi coran8, here you go ua-cam.com/video/s3Km7531zOU/v-deo.html. Thank you so much for listening to it.
@@akers_music it turns out im blind!! thank you so much for the link

🗣️🗣️🗣️
So this is house work?
Keep it up you're doing brilliant.
Thanks Darren. Am having a lot of fun even when it’s a bit daunting. 😅
@@akers_music Was the same for me when I first started.
It gets better and you start having fun but you're doing great.
Like the lofi electronic style. Do you produce Hip Hop/ trap style beats also as I think that would be interesting with your vocal.
Hi Wayne 🙋🏻♀️… I am playing around at the mo & each week so far, the vibe changes but I’ll keep your suggestion in mind for the next session. Thank you, I appreciate your message 🙏🙋🏻♀️✨
Small suggestion: Make affiliate links for your equipment in the description as soon as you are eligible. Will be a good source of money for you👍🏼
Will do and thanks 😊
Seeing your listening position I recommend buying Isoacoustics ISO-155 and putting the Kalis on them slightly tilted up. Trust me.
Thanks for the tip. I am currently putting together a new set up so will put this on the list. Thanks again and wishing you a super day 🙋🏻♀️✨

00:54 In your video is around the time My nabors bang on the walls, shouts or blast pop music to ruin My recordings, that's the problem with doing music in a block of flats.
I am new to music and I have written some songs with good melodies, I am looking for artists who want to sing my songs
Hi Carlos, wishing you all the best with your music. I am focussing on my own musical journey at the mo so am not available for collab. Take care, 🙋🏻♀️✨
I can't pay attention when you're this pretty, come on nowww haha
Ha ha… very sweet of you 💁🏻♀️
You should find a partner who you can bounce ideas off like Karra.
I wish.. that would be so great.
I relate pretty strongly with the creative process here, some days a good idea just comes instantly almost because I’m not trying anything specific, and others I end up spending hours only to realise this is garbage, what are you doing, delete this now before someone else hears it
Nice to hear! I find it a great way to be free in the creative process and I believe I am making much better music because of it than if I tried to write a complete song every time. Thanks for listening and getting in touch. Take care 🙋🏻♀️✨
Sounds amazing 🎉
Wanna do a collaboration?
Thanks 🙏 .. sadly I am not able to collaborate at the mo, I am busy working on my own music but thanks for asking. Will keep it in mind though, never say never ;)
@@akers_music cool ✨
Have you ever considered a face lift?
Sometimes but i could never afford it so it is what it is. Hope you are ok. Take care of yourself 🌷xx
@@akers_music It could improve your appearance.
@@akers_music Please respond.
She looks lovely wth? No face lift needed!
@@EtherTheReal A tummy tuck would be even better?
*Spoiler alert*
This is how you end up with a pile of unfinished tracks
why u say dat
@@Embrrzz this is my experience and a lot of musicians are strugling with this too.
It really takes a lot of time and effort to make a good track which lasts longer that a minute and the only reason why I'd go for a 1 min track is just simply to check one or another technique/idea. However I'd never release such a small peace.
Anyway it's all subjective feel free just to ignore me, however I can't remember any good song which lasts just a minute... just like in a sex ;)
@@Andrii-pw5nk loool bro, tbh i agreed when i read that so wanted to hear bout ur experience which makes sense. very funny comparison haha
@@Andrii-pw5nk Once your at the 1 minute mark it's pretty easy to extent to 2 minutes by simply duplicating what you already have and adding something extra ontop second time around and loop the second verse twice add a break down and that's it 3 minuts.
@@HOLLASOUNDS hi mate!
Sure, I have an idea on how to arrange music and deal with the loops.
Approach you mentioned is valid, but however it depends on a lot of things, genre/style for example.
I saw a lot of videos over here, like “how to exit a 4bar loop” and sure I had the same problem before.
Btw, sometimes you may want to remove some elements after X bars, not just add more
