thanks again
I dunno about this one.. While I generally agree with the overall message, wouldn't it be better to release something to the best of your ability, and going through the learning cycle, rather than just making something to release it?
I mean, ive seen the opposite argument too, which I kind of lean more into. Make something as good as you possibly can, and have that reputation to be known to release good music (subjective I know)
There's an artist I admire in the Prog Psy trance scene named Day Din. And while I don't make Prog Psy or listen to it much anymore, his productions are some of the best of any genre I've heard, hands down. He doesn't release often, but every time he does, it's like Christmas. Because you know you're in for something special.
That’s a lot of views. So you roughly made close to 100K from that remix from the YouTube views? 😮
This is definitely one of the best channels I discovered this year ❤
A truth indeed, a high majority of individuals subconciously believe that 1) anything they do is not or will never be good enough. 2) That they as a person will never be good enough or good at anything.
It'd be cool to have Bthelick on the pocket tee with these quotes on the back
Great video, sir. A nice pick-me up.
The only thing you're doing by continuously not finishing a track is getting really good at not finishing tracks. Over time the conditioning will have kicked in and you'll be sitting on years of nothing finished, being an expert on starting something new. I can unfortunately speak from experience… 😐 I've only recently started to force myself to complete the arrangements no matter how crappy the idea turned out. It's very hard to push through sometimes but if you don't start it'll never happen. Still haven't "released" anything yet but at least I have a handful of "these are good enough".
Truth! I need to embrace this as someone who has easily spent 100s of hours with purely hobby personal tracks that never get finished or released. I have a hard time releasing without a finalized brand like artist name and logo and social links, etc. That’s usually why it dies off for me. The whole one artist name and brand you stick with is daunting.
Feeling this one, The loop of "This has to be perfect, a house/techno track that will last the test of time" and imposter syndrome aarrghh.
a couple of questions though how do YOU define "release"? on a label or just put out into the world ?
also whats your thoughts on building up a bit of a catalogue first of say 5/10 tracks and releasing them as one or trickling them out so you have a bit of other stuff for others to check out if they do happen upon your track/s
great channel mate
This is great advice. Just finish, you learn with every track. Someone told me once that nothing creative is every truly finished, it's just abandoned. You just decide at some point it's done. There will always be things you want to tweak or change but that is just knob twiddling. The audience only knows what you present, not every option you had. Finish. Put it out. Do the next one, rinse, repeat.
Huge! Love this
Thank you Sir, for another great video. 🙏Your insights are gold. Just a quick question please … would you recommend releasing tracks of differing genres under different artist names (in today’s marketplace), or lump them all together, and let the customer choose the tracks they like? Thank you in advance! 🍻🍻
Great video and topic. Amy proposals on how to release a track? I am with the idea that sending demos to record companies is not the way anymore due to thousands of tracks produced everyday.
Good man thanks for the kick up the Jacksie! 👌☮
Yes I need that shirt 😬😬☠️
Thanks Bthelick – always dynamite content mate! Appreciate you
Bro, I have an immense doubt that I need to clarify in my mind, and maybe you know and can talk about it, to advise us? My dilemma is, what is the production process that already established DJs regularly do, for example, Fred again, fisher, summit,etc? Specifically I ask for: Do they make the demo and then they mix it themselves and master it themselves? Or do they just create the demo and send it to an engineer to do the mixing and mastering? Because it happens to me personally that I make a song but when I move to the next stage of mixing, I still don't have the necessary experience nor am I an engineer and I destroy the mix. Then that's how far my motivation comes with the song, because it sounds bad even though I consider that the initial idea is good. So it frustrates me to think that all those great DJs do those 3 stages on their own, and I can't. So to keep the motivation high and focus my energies on the creative and composition part, should I deliver those demos to an engineer and that he is in charge of making the song sound in a good and competitive way?
Hey, thanks for the "invaluable advice", its so true. Now all I have to do is………..
heed your words of wisdom, and start finishing and eventually release my first track.
Whats stopping me???
Me Myself And I, one more time now…..
Just Me Myself And I !!!!!! 😃
Can you do a full advanced course ? Your tutorials are amazing would happily pay for a full course
I can't even finish this video 😭😭
Off the back of this video I've just said fuck it and banged a track I finished a couple of months back to some music channels on here. Kick up the arse I needed to stop being such a pussy. Cheers mate god speed.
Good advice i have 5 tracks almost finished that i need to just get done, any tips for promo?
What is the meaning of the (dub mix) boss ? Generally those tracks are not related to dub/reggae vibe but for some reason they are dub version of original version. Could you explain what is the major,minör differences between dub and original mixes?
Cool.
On sales jobs we used to say "…"the NO", you have it already…", so jump and dive into it…
There's only ONE way to hit the target – shooting.
Art is never finished, only abandoned.
really hit me with the "these modern youtube videos got you worried about what EQ to use", damn it makes me so insecure
Simply thank you very much, it is what we need to hear in these times, greetings from Perú!!
