I'm not always into Skrillex sounds, but I wanted to give him a chance and watch this. Glad I did, because I now have full on respect for him. Pay attention to the right stuff, and you will find a lot of GOLD hidden in this video; Gold that translates into being able to work on any DAW or platform and create the music you desire. It's all principles, folks! Be well everyone! ✌️

      @TeraGreene1 4 роки тому +1

      @@andrew8253 Yes, but that's because I'm not a sheep and his music wasn't relevant to myself, nor my audience. But, regardless, would you rather earn the respect of folks over time, even years, or would you rather never be respected at all for what you do? The fact that I even gave him a chance and watched this should show you my intelligence on giving others a chance, even those who may not fit into my personal scope of vision.
      You also have to acknowledge that I come from a classical background and my first "electronic dance music" introductions were in the 80s and then in the 90s when I started raving... His sound just didn't';t speak to me. But, from a production standpoint, I can give respect because seeing his process, because I graduated from music school and can see that he is truly a creative and technical artist, which I can relate to, resonate with and now, can respect. Hope that make sense!
