Hi, just found Ur channel and the content U've got there is very informative and helpful! 🤍❤🖤 I just started composing with the start of this year and I'm trying to find my genre, is there any possibility of sending U some tracks so U could say what's done properly and what's not? If it's not a problem I'd be very pleased if U told me afterwards what of Ur other videos should I watch to fill the gaps in my knowledge 🙏

@rebelaqua823 Жыл бұрын

@@ErixSamson Fair call. But then who is to say Jazz is best or pop is worst or Funk is funky. All music is subjective IMO. It's easier to determine which types of music make more money though. Just ask Rihanna in her Rolls Royce fan tail custom made. 30mil.

I tuned off during point 4 as I have sufficient knowledge about root notes, 3rds, 5ths, 6ths and 7ths which may well work well in the bass line. I did, however, get a little lost when it comes to altering wave forms and then doing the low cut / high cut fliters and/or EQ.... Just sayin' as a newbie.
