What are you passionate about?
Music (but not a very good musician), other cultures and international travel, history.
Have you thought of trying to pick up another language? Started learning Spanish 4 years ago and now I can go on vacation and have conversations with locals. Also, I'm more interested in their local history because I can read it/listen to it in Spanish and practice the language at the same time.
Hey I'm not a good musician either, maybe we should collaborate! Either way join us at !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works
I did, thanks!
Sweet, what kind of music do you like or play? Any instrument?
I play keyboards, have a decent electronic piand which doubles as a MIDI controller. I like prog, the nerdier end of techno/electronica/hip-hop, and classical. LCD Soundsystem, Stereolab, King Crimson.
Sounds like we would have some stylistic overlap then. What DAW do you use?
Ableton Live. Max looks interesting, and one of these days I am going to try it out.
Nice, I'm on Bitwig but the projects are somewhat compatible. If you ever want a remix lemme know. I'm more sound design and production than arrangement
Edit: and if max appeals to you maybe you'd like The Grid in Bitwig.
Have you tried video editing? You can do a lot with a good song and curiosity.
Learn an instrument! An hour of noodling a day will get you to pretty good quite quickly. An hour of real, hard practice, doing etudes, drills, and scales will make you a virtuoso one day.
