>Hip hop/Rap.

I make the sort of music that I think I'd listen to myself.

I've been beat making since 2011, rapping since 2012.But the computer I make my beats on is in bad shape hence the trickle of tracks, and when I say tracks, I mean mostly shittily recorded iPhone demo verses.

Influences (no particular order and of the present)
Tech N9ne.
R.A the Rugged Man.
Eminem.
Big Pun.
Kurupt.

>Chiptune

>1. Explain why you make music.

Because chiptune gives me a magic feeling of wonder and enthusiasm that I can barely put into words. It's like a wonderful feeling of waking up in the year 2200 to an utopic digital world. Hell, I don't know how to describe. Chiptune gives me an amazing feeling.

>2. State how long you've been making music.

Since 2010.

>3. List your 5 biggest influences, musical or otherwise.

Early Slime Girls and early Anamanaguchi, with a chiptune sound that is less free-form and more structured, similar to a punk rock song but in chiptune form.

Also WMD and Azuria have a way of making chill, relaxing chiptune that inspired me on how to make the smooth, chill part of my song.


-

Give my music a listen: if you think it's shit you can tell me that, and I won't take it personally.

(an artist HAS to know how to take criticism, constructive or not, and deal with it)

Thanks for listening.

1. It's a fairly fulfilling hobby that eats up a lot of time, plus part of me is still clinging to the remains of the dream that I'll be a somewhat known and respected musician/producer. Idk, I do it for me but I want people to care what I think, they don't even have to like my music.

2. Wrote and recorded my first song in September of 2013, but I've been playing guitar since I was in first grade.

3. Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth, Nine Inch Nails, Pink Floyd, and Kraftwerk (Weird set up, I know).

I make music because I've gone through several mental breakdowns and music, whether listening or making, has always been therapeutic for me.

I make post-rock/drone with spoken word poetry over, recently in free time (no discernible rhythm). It's definitely different, but I hope you give it a shot. I'm going to look at everyone in the thread and leave feedback where I feel appropriate.
---
1. I make music because I enjoy writing poetry and find it to be the best emotional release - but poetry without music doesn't get heard and music adds emotional intensity.

2. I've been making original music for around a year. I've been playing instruments for about four.

2) 10 years
3) Nirvana, Syd Barret/Floyd, STP, Beatles... Idk after that it depends on the song. My new direction is more Consider the Source, Transatlantic, Ravi+Philip Glass, zappa, etc. All sort of crazy shit. Hopefully I'll make killer prog music someday.

It`s also fun.

I mainly make art punk with my group Mock Fountain:

But I`ve recently been giving sample-based music a try,and basically I made some vaguely vaporwave tracks. I know everyone is tired of vaporwave,so I did spice it up extra for you /mu/ niggas:

1. I make music because I get an innate sense of enjoyment of just figuring out what to do and finally getting to see a result that I like is one of the best feelings ever.

2. 6 months ago I downloaded FL Studio for the firs ttime. Never done anything with music before that (except listening(

3. Pretty much all the vaporwave artists I like and all the oldschool dubstep artists.

Anyways would love to hear some feedback on the dubstep track I made, it's my first 100% original one.

I'm a member of many reoccurring compilations and have made many friends through music production. One of which, whose opinion I respect highly [Zovi is her name if you care to look her up], is currently teaching me her methods because I suck. My current goal is to make music she likes/can tolerate. That's the current reason. That and to master FL and eventually learn Renoise

>2
7 or 4 years depending who you ask
I always had an interest but never enough of one to learn how to play an instrument. When I was 9 I decided I wanted to be Barney of Napalm Death and recorded some things of just me screaming. That was rough. Much later my music taste had changed drastically and I started to listen to things like Clark and Aphex Twin and Flylo. I, around the same time, discovered Audacity. One thing led to another and I was making bootleg remixes of Clark tracks [mostly stuff from Totem Flares and Body Riddle] in Audacity. I was about 12 at the time. Then a lot of honestly really cringey stuff I don't wanna talk about happened and fast forward 3 or 4 years and here we are. I'm sorta trained in FL and I'm gonna start trying out Renoise eventually.

>why
I wanted to make movies but it's a bitch to get that up and going at the younger ages and I found it way more rewarding to write a song I wanted to hear and the only thing standing in the way of me being whether or not I could actually play it. Of course after a certain point songwriting stopped being "I want to make this sound and do this thing" and more "A wild song appeared and you threw a Great Ball!"

>How long
Shitty lyrics since 9 or 10, solid riffs at 13 or 14, actual ability around 18

70s-80s Italian Horror movies (tone, not music), Leonard Cohen, David Bowie, Gershwin, Edward and Josephine Hopper's marriage.

This is a neat idea for a thread. I'll be reviewing stuff (particularly for people who answered the questions and didn't just dine and ditch).

hello everyone. i'm a rapper/producer from the south. I try my best to keep my accent down as much as possible. I promise I'm not an incest dummy kek.
I take my music very very seriously. I order to get studio time for my mixtape I had to sell all of my college textbooks. and I dropped out of school to pursue my dream.

1. This is a loaded question. I have been making music since I was 8, I am 22 now. I make music that I love, and hopefully people see the angle I'm getting at. and this is all I have. if my mixtape and video doesnt take off and get me popular I'll be crushed
2. kek I just said that. got some instruments at the age of 8. started producing at 16.
3. my family's financial situation, living in the fucking hood, asher roth (seriously), eases my depression/anxiety disorder, and I wanna get big in the industry so I can work with people like earl sweatshirt and logic etc

>1. Explain why you make music.

I make music to stop kids who were like myself (minority, ambitious, emotionally unattended to, creatively malnourished) from feeling worthless or caged.

>2.State how long you've been making music.

I've been writing raps and freestyling everyday since I was 12. When I was 14 I focused on learning how to freestyle fluently to the point of excellence. Senior year of high school I decided to not rap about things that weren't true to me. So I decided to go live life and come back when I had a story to tell. This was in 2011.

I started recording music summer 2015.

>3.List your 5 biggest influences, musical or otherwise.

Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Kid Cudi lyrically.

Kung Fu movies (specifically the Ip Man series and Bruce Lee films) have influenced my lyrical thought process in the way that he fluidly would handle multiple opponents at once, on the offensive and defensive fronts, and make it look as if it was choreographed. It obviously was for the movies sake, but in the context of the film that shit is lit.


And no bullshit, Young Thug has actually influenced my perception of boundaries in southern rap music. I'm making a fucking mixtape about Daedalus of Ancient Greek lore and its lit thats ridiculous, if you heard somebody was going to try some shit like this 10 years ago you would have assumed them to be some kind of underground hip-hop 90s freak boom bap nigga not a trap southern club/party/"gangster" rapper

i've never bothered with odd nosdam but i know he helped found an indie hip-hop label so i'm assuming the association is a good thing.

also your programming/arrangement skills are fresh as fuck. very little clutter with a lot of variation/hook generation

>>61753765
your music is nice despite your shitty influences. I can only imagine what you would make if you had better influences. I don't like EDM in general and thought you were a troll but I saw your cloud and you have a soothing/trancy vibe. Maybe get more into the old teisto, armin, moby, seven lions, adventure club, blackmill, phaleah, rameses b, pretty lights. Again these are not the artists that even I listen to in general but I am sure these guys are more talented than Hardwell and Martin Garrix lol. Anyways goodluck.

not bad. the melodies and the synths are decent, but the mix is just drenched in way too much reverb. there also could've been more side-chaining going on.

the overall mix sounded pretty flat in my opinion, but the song was enjoyable anyways.

>>61754204
there's a dynamic concept going on throughout the course of the album. it's placement toward the beginning and its sonic footprint are no accident. it's mad vanilla metamorphosis/coming of age shit tho.

it's a concept album. it documents my tenure as the "apothecary". it's a linear story of my self-destruction/reassembly into a more conscious and realized version of myself. the "sheen" you're missing is v intentional as I designed all the sounds from scratch to best express its place in the narrative.

and don't worry I'm definitely "that person" in this scenario

I also enjoy recording studios. I've been in several. Im planning a professional EP.

I've been making music for 6 years. I've self taught a lot of stuff to myself.
I've started getting into it professionally the last year. I've recorded covers of Radiohead songs with a guy who produced a blink 182 album as well as a guy who produces a lot of local artists.

1. I make music to get these sounds out of my head. Nothing captivates me more than music, and more technically audio. I consider it my passion, I'm going to school for audio engineering starting this spring (after 4 years trying at normal college, but I digress, audio is my chosen path in life)

2. Playing guitar for 7 years, producing electronic for 4 years

3. No particular order:
-(mostly older) Skrillex. This guy is the reason I ventured from metal to electronic, and more importantly sound design.

-Bassnectar. vibes unlike any other and a sound truly his own, something I strive to have

-Knife Party raw, mean, and fast

-Feed Me, same reasons as Bassnectar & Skrillex combined really, this dude definitely got me into electronic in the beginning. Love how he can release a calm house tune or a filthy dubstep track and either way you can tell it's Feed Me just by listening

-Eminem, i grew up on his music and some of his lyrics inspired me to get into music further. Also, as a producer, he has some of the trippiest beats, always got these weird strings and exciting melodies goin on. Idk how to put it into words exactly but I feel like his style influenced the way I put my melodies together.

1. I just like music. I have been playing the piano for a while, and eventually I started to branch out into vocals and production.

2. Well I wrote my first song in the 8th grade. The minimum age I can be on this site is 18, so that would be about 4 years. I have been playing music for longer though, and that started around elementary school.

3. I listen to a lot of rap, but I don't actually make rap songs. I guess I was probably influenced lyrically, so I would say Bones from TeamSesh, at least at the moment. My taste in music has varied wildly though, so I couldn't really say who influenced me in my earlier years.

throughout grade school i sang in my church choir as well as my high school's chorus. i thought myself to play guitar starting around the summer of 2014 after i graduated college and started writing my own songs a year later in the summer of 2015 when i started to write songs with my partner. together we are nancy babich

The big one there is "expecting to make a career" out of it. You're right, that's straight up fucking stupid, especially if you wager off your other chips in life banking on that chance. Like yeah obviously I want my music to sell/get downloaded but if one person hears my music and is touched or changed in some meaningful way by it, then my job is complete.

Anyone who makes art for the sole purpose of monetary profit is both delusional and a hack.

Both your aesthetic and music are corny as fuck. A real disappointment based on your influences, none of which carry into your actual music.

Maybe spend less time fetching low-res "retro anime" pics off tumblr and a little more time figuring out what you want to do musically because somehow you've managed to rip off the worst aspects of a plethora of shitty SC artists and none of the good aspects of your supposed influences.

>Explain why you make music
To feel good. I want my music to be conducive to late-night internet browsing and other similarly dull, innocuous things. I want to make "damaged" sounding Hip Hop instrumentals. Once I've settled into my niche, I'll start pursuing rappers who might want to collaborate. For now, practice practice practice.
>State how long you've been making music
I made Metal/Rock music for the longest time, almost 10 years. I used to play guitar in bands, but it started to get very boring. I've been making music with a computer on and off for around two years, but I've only recently decided to take it more seriously.

My debut release, I spent a long time working on this. Enjoy.

I make music because it's the only thing I've ever really been interested in. Everything else has been an on-and-off thing, music has stuck for the longest time.

I've been doing this since I was young, around 7-8. Started with piano and moved to guitar, I now can also play bass.

Slint, Swans, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, King Crimson, Boris
If you're wondering why no drone doom bands are listed there it's because I'm moving on from the genre, my next release will be drastically different.

>>61759682
WOAH easy tiger I'm not that guy, just calling it as i see it lol

right. then you're part of the problem as to why SC/BC threads are absolutely shit here on /mu/. they've turned into circlejerks and dickriding contests. the moment you have people donning names and tracing back their posts and being "nice," you've sacrificed any notion of honesty and any chance of actually helping anyone in here improve.

you should realize that no one gets better that way. the world outside the internet is a lot harder than some asshole online telling someone that their music sucks and that they should fix this and that. for one, no one out there in the real world will tell you the truth about your shit. instead, you'll just be stuck making shit and wondering why no one wants it despite everyone telling you it's "great, i love the drums here!"

how often does anyone here actually revisit the tracks they grace with a listen and a positive comment and maybe, MAYBE, a "fave"? it's about the long run, but everyone here is so short-sighted. yes, your feelings will be hurt, but if i've pissed someone off, hopefully i've incited them to get off this awful board for a moment and actually work on their craft. the more time people spend here (and they spend a LOT of time posting this shit), the less they are working on being better.

but either way, it's no skin off of my back. it's just the atmosphere here is toxic to anyone actually looking to get better.

>>61760169
i feel you. tough love is good. honesty is pure. but its not dishonest if i dont say anything because id just have a lot to type haha. so i just pick what i like you know? i completely understand where you are coming from though a lot of people just make music just to make it. they do their trap/ambient/glitch/acoustic/what the fuck ever and its so uninspired. i feel bad for them but whats a comment gonna do to them? stop them? maybe they just need to keep making stuff til they grow out of their comfort zones and grow. i cant shit on them like that because maybe they really are a diamond in a rough just making stuff for fun or just letting stuff out creatively. i cant say. but yeah

>lo-fi, acoustic "bedroom pop," influences include daniel johnston, beach house, ween's first few albums, mac demarco, sebadoh, and olivia tremor control

1., I make music because I am in love with the concept of recording, mixing and mastering my own music. I just like *creating*. And making my own music gives me a giddy happy feeling that I'm actually creating something that matters (at least to me) and that pleases me.

2., I've been making music since early 2011, most of my older work is out of print and no longer readily available, however, if you happen to like my music, just message me on Soundcloud and I'll be more than happy to send you a Mediafire link to a few albums I've recorded in the past.

3., My five biggest influences are Casiotone For The Painfully Alone, Daniel Johnston, the album III by Sebadoh, Mac DeMarco and early Ween.

>>61751274
Have you heard the Delia Derbyshire atmospheres for BBC? I believe it's like a solid hour radio show where the concept was stringing together snippets of people talking about different types of dreams and improvising over that. I think it'd be up your alley. Also, watch out for learning too much about the mechanics of music.

>>61751589

>House
I make music with friends and sometimes play at my local clubs. My music isn't mind blowing or something but I think it's descent because I've been played on one of my favourite radio
Upper link is a Work In Progress
If you're a french fag and like house you can catch me and (way more intrusting) Ill Phill at Le Drak-Art in Grenoble in March
My bigest influences are:
-Low Steppa/Martin Ikin
-Habstrakt/Badjokes
-Tom Shorterz/Chris Lorenzo/Ill Phill
-Excision/Bassnectar/Space Laces
-Korn/HedPE/SystemOfADown
-Marcus Nasty/PVC
-Original sin
I can give feedbacks if you ask. Right now I'm looking forward to make new musics and finding intrusting sound designs

1. Good form of creative expression and art
2. Began making music in 2002
3.There are different influences on different songs. Latest song had a Lazerhawk influence. The song before was influenced by the snow and the winter and a sense of isolation and the one before was influenced by a wet spring day and the subtle interludes in some of the music released by Peccatum. So basically anything and everything can have an influence.

this is my personal proyect, where i do everything by myself that started a year ago

>1. I make music cus i dont have anything else and i cant cope with people and having money did nothing to me, I'm 22 and in these times, music is the only thing i really enjoy. not even sex, not even drugs anymore, I mainly live isolated, so this is the only thing i do in my free time, no family, no friends, no gf. Just music.

>2. I've started making music 7 years ago, playing bass for some tech/death bands and guitar in a black metal project.

>3. Influences? Lifelover, Harakiri for the Sky, Windir, Carach Angren & some poetry. These things (to say a few) make me want to keep doing music and stay motivated.

Ill give feedback later

1. I make music simply because I enjoy it. I'm working on a rock album with other musicians at the moment under a different band name, but almost all of this music under the name "albinotron" is electronic. I just love the freedom I have to make compositions that are entirely my creations from beginning to end.

2. I've been making music since 2002, the oldest album on my discography page was recorded in 2003.

3. Venetian Snares, Aphex Twin, Autechre, Stunt Rock, and Squarepusher are probably my biggest influences.

Here is an album guide for those interested in diving into my extensive discography. Also I worked on a few projects with NMESH like "Fair and Balanced Music" and the "You're Dead to Me EP".

Darkest album:
What is Lovecore?

Prettiest sounding albums:
Microcomputer Control System
Everyday Occurrence
Good Morning, I Love You
Love Zero

Heaviest Albums:
Maximum Blaster Passion
Internets
All My Love to Give

Personal Favorites:
I Can't Make It
Beatish
Sonnets

1. Music is the only outlet I have. I don't like partying and socializing, or drugs. I've pretty much given up on consumer culture, I don't spend money. All I know is that I started doing it and now I can't not do it anymore.

2. Exactly a year. Only been focusing on hiphop for the last 6 months or so.

3. Marilyn Manson, Flying Lotus, Wondagurl, The Gaslamp Killer, Hank III

Here's my latest beat. I make trap and new school hiphop with a lot of psychedelic influences, trying to take it into an artsy direction. Just kinda doing my own thing, don't give a damn about trends.

I'm a hobbyist. The catharsis involved makes it too irresistible to ever stop. The satisfaction of finishing works is the best feeling.

I've been playing a variety of instruments all throughout my life (violin as a child, then guitar, then keys, now mostly keys and the ableton.) I've been making music for about 7 years. Only recently got decent at it.

My five biggest influences are Tim Hecker, Oneohtrix Point Never, Autechre, Boards of Canada, and maybe Nicolas Jaar
