One tip that helped me a lot was remaking my favorite songs. It’s the closest thing to hands on learning you’ll get without a legit class or studio session with the producers

I feel like I just started to put all these habits in motion and i’m really starting to see the progress frfr. Once you realize the only competition is yourself that’s when it feels like the world is yours

This was really well written, the 10,000 iterations part was a bar

Super valuable habits. I've been hitting the daily 6am deep work session and I'm making huge gains as a musician. Working every day without seeing results is the realest thing ever

I love that quote bro "Men of action are favored by the goddess of luck" has so much weight attached to it.

Who tryna work?🌊💯

Did you ever looked back to a beat you already have made and think: Damn! Let's try do it again. And then you just start failling?

You are wise beyond your years young brother. Keep following the beat of your drummer. You brought a smile to my face as an older gent in the game.

One thing Joel Zimmerman (deadmau5) said on one of his live streams was that everybody thinks the only way to make money in music is to get signed, be a rocks star, etc. He said his parents told him to get a job because he wasn't making any money. He decided to get a job making flash video music for companies. Eventually that helped out and for fun he released the song faxing berlin, he was already djing at local clubs, but something about that song really pulled off, and then ghosts n stuff. I remember him starting out back in 2008. It took him almost 10 years until he got famous. His mouse head was basically a joke at pac man, and he thought it would be funny if he wore it live, and people thought it was great. I remember the contests, where whomever had the coolest mouse head got it personally signed or worn by him, or something like that. He was also into graphic design, and made a 3d model of his mouse head after finding out a dead mouse was actually in his computer. But the point of this story, is that this guy came from a fucking basement situation, and didn't limit himself. He also says, everybody tries to put out their stuff online, which is fine, but he said that your chances of success are much higher giving a physical copy of your work to the record company or producer, than just an email. Same thing with Billie Eilish's brother. Her ocean eyes video was just for her dance class, she actually wanted to be a dancer, but fucked her hip up, and a promoter from apple saw the video on youtube, and boom, it took 5 years later until her debut came out with her when we fall asleep album. You would be surprised. But its going to be a hobby when you first start out. You need multiple sources of income, and just have fun. Learn more about the music business, immerse your self in it as much as possible, become an expert. To be a master at anything, you have to adopt that identity as a world class musician or producer and do those actions that world class producers do. That goes with anything in life.

Honestly this hit home I’ve been struggling with this way longer than I’d like to admit . And trying to take this game more serious. I feel dumb for having the connections I have and not going HARD . Thank you for waking me up just subbed

1 ) Work Everyday / consistency

The tutorials are already more than generous of you but this video is straight from the heart. We appreciate you Nile

These are excellent points bro! I wanna also say (to the youngers out there) if you LOVE music, then don't restrict yourself to albums. Venture out into the music world, check out scoring for films, or TV Ad's, music for games. Do everything and try out till you find your niche.

2) Focus on your own path

I was kinda losing my faith cuz i get easily frustrated, I just started in the music production thing and y know, you get easily frustrated when you don't see progress, but you helped me to see how much progress I have done, even if I don't notice it, because of all the habits that I have, and some of them were in this video, I will take your advice and keep moving forward, thank you so much! Have a great day dude, you're awesome!

When I first started making music (Only been at it for under a year)

ay bro, this is exactly what I needed and I know hundreds of others needed as well as we both can see. This video is certainly a gem and something I can see myself looking at in those moments, keep pushing as always man, I know I will be. much love

Thanks bro. You made me realize I have to change my mindset when It comes to comparing myself and my achievements to others.. just gotta stay focused on your path.
