it is impossible for one to produce each and everytime a timeless classic. unless you want a flawless carrer, and i think it is impossible, you have to try and fail, to love and hate, before reaching hapiness trough making music.

there is a difference between making music and trying being successfull by making music. wich one do you want to be ?
If making music isn't fun to you then you have no buisness doing it in the first place.
It is impossible to make a classic everytime but that doesn't mean everything deserves to be released or even finished.

step3 - mess around with synths and feel the groove
step4 - bring it in some order
step5 - do some mastering

having fun is a fucking given. if you're not having fun you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

sometimes, there are aspects of the process that might feel chore like. but overall you wouldn't be doing it if you didn't enjoy it. and I don't think there is a difference between making music and making music and being successful. if you want to be successful doing what you love doing, it'll happen if you keep at it long enough.

Its funny how this thread and the other thread on how to avoid a creativity dip have very similar responses. i'm not doing music to put food on the table and i dont think i ever will. i do it for fun and to be happy number 1. And i don't nececeraily think you have to be otherwise like torque suggests. I'm into community and being local and i think you can always have fun with music and art in that way. I guess that's what i love about myspace and netlabels. I can never really see myself selling music. But don't get me wrong music is my life and always has been. I'll never work too hard in a day job either. If you live simply you can enjoy both.
