Tips for creativity and workflow! (Music Production) 🎼
Music production - 3 tips for creativity and workflow.
We musicians all know the struggle of not getting music done. One day we feel it, thinking we are next big thing in the music industry and the second day we are just some another generic producer. Been there done that ;)
In this post, I will try to explain what things you should consider if you are always stuck with making music. Since I am not schooled in making music I always had the struggle to put my ideas into reality when it comes to music but I got few tips that helped me and can also help you :)
Tip #1 - Decision making
Do you remember times you were choosing for an hour what sound or sample to use? If you do, you should apply this tip!
Decision making is crucial for faster workflow in making music. When you lose an hour just to make a small change in your music, that shit kills your creativity. When you make faster decisions you are letting your creativity flow natural and you are making music faster and better.
Music should be written from the heart and that's what is decision making is about. Your first thought comes from the heart and after that its all logic.
Next time you produce music instead of losing tons of time on one little sample try to just make decisions as soon as possible and stick to them.
Tip #2 - Samples library
If you have read the first tip about decision making this tip will make it even faster. Having right samples ready is crucial because you will not spend a lot of time choosing what samples to use.
When you are not in the mood for creating music you should create sound banks and samples that you could use when you are in the mood for creating music. This way you will not lose time when you are in the mood.
The best way to do this is to create your own sample library of samples of your choice. If you got a lot of samples you will always chase the best sample for your music so keeping library small is the best way to avoid spending a lot of time to choose the right one.
Tip #3 - Have fun
If you are not brainstorming and having fun while making music you will probably make crap music. My best work is done when I am really inspired and having fun.
You know that feeling when you just in the mood and you create something great and you get this high like you are on drugs or something. If you get that high you should not stop, you should create while you on it ;)
Keep in mind that if you are in the loop of decision making while you are on that high you should stop immediately to keep that high for next time you create music.
Also, try new stuff and collaborate with new people. Stay away from doing same things over and over again.
I hope this helps you guys and I wish you best luck. @antminer
