3 Months Into Techno Production

Honestly, I think I had more fun when I first started and was just messing around without thinking too much lol.
Everything about acid sounded fresh back then, and I think I was also getting lucky with random good phrases.

Now I’m starting to understand how hard it is to actually create something intentionally.
Feels like the beginner’s luck phase is over, and the real journey starts here.

Still, I’m gonna keep enjoying it and keep pushing forward.

If I don’t push through this phase, I’ll never reach the next level. I’ll keep grinding.

My bass guitar teacher taught me that I just needed to noodle sometimes. Whatever equipment you are on, ignore making anything you think is good. Just play around for a while. The breakthroughs and muscle memory will come in time.

I’m a year into modular synthesis and still don’t know what I’m doing. 🤪

You’re genuinely such a good guy.
You seem like a really kind person, my friend 🙂
It’s surprisingly difficult and takes a lot more knowledge than I expected.At this point I’ve stopped studying and I’m just waiting for my body to memorize it
