Should I continue? (HONEST ANSWER)

Posted by BlueAlpha14 - October 2nd, 2016


After learning a bit of music theory and other stuff, I wanted to try my hand at a track again. But here's the thing, for a long time now I've been starting tracks but never finishing them. I would only make 16 bar loops and never touch it again.

Well THIS time I actually felt motivated and almost have it done. But, no matter how good I think I've gotten, I don't know if I actually am better. Especially when it comes to drops.

So, please listen to this and tell me if this is a track I should finish and upload before I spend any more time on it. I'm honestly open to any criticism. I'm curios if I should use different sounds or if there's anything that could make it sound more interesting.

Also TURN YOUR SPEAKERS DOWN just in case because I haven't balanced the mastering. It will be fixed I promise.

As an artist myself I've hit a similar spot as you. It's hard to continue some stuff and you honestly feel like it ain't good enough or it's not any better as your other stuff, but hey! If you like making art (music, in your case) then why stop? You gotta realize that you ain't gonna make a masterpiece every time, that you're gonna leave some stuff without completion and that's alright. You can either a) come back to it later when you feel confident, or b) make more stuff no matter if you finish them or not.
Now, I wish I could give you some advice on music but I'm no expert in electronic music, but I can tell it's good! Keep up the good work and always be confident in the stuff you do. The greast things you can do are the stuff you're the proudest of!

Aw, thanks ^^

Of course you should continue

Yeah, I am.

I really liked droping at 110 bpm. It sounded like kdrew

It was also preset based.

Keep working, you will make good music!

Thanks.
