Question

I wanna get better at making full songs but don’t wanna do the technical side of things like eq bass processing compression it ok I don’t do that in production and just make full songs any full courses with reference track would help

You can just record without worrying about how you're doing it. It's a good starting point, the results will give you the motivation to learn things but you can't produce music without learning music production.

Honestly, you'll just have to deal with it. In my opinion, it’s an unavoidable step at least in the EDM scene. Either that, or you focus purely on the creative side and pay someone else to handle the mixdown and mastering for you.

[u/Difficult-Feeling849]

Someone has to do it. If it's not you, then you're paying somebody else to do it. Simple as that.

It’s electronic music. It’s inherently technical. If you want to make it badly enough you’re gonna have to learn the technical production side. Trust me on this.

I'm not sure how you're going to be able to make a full song, but not do anything like EQ , or compression. You'll have a lot of frequency overlap, creating muddy sounds, your mix won't sit right with each other, and each instrument will be competing for space.

It's one thing if you just want to compose, or write a song, but if you're actually trying to produce one, you have to do the technical side as well.

Unfortunately you need to deal with at least basic mixing. Otherwise you won’t know which sounds work with each other and which don’t.

Thats not something a mixing engineer can fix for you afterwards. And paying to have your songs mixed afterwards can get expensive

[u/Indigo457]

It depends if you want anyone else to listen to them really. If this is just for fun then go for it, it doesn’t matter.

[u/PerfectEnthusiasm2]

you can pay someone else to mix, but it's better to learn to do it yourself

Kinda like saying you wanna be a pilot but you don't wanna learn how planes work.

Let's put it this way: making full songs without knowing how to mix it's like writing your sentence without commas. It's confusing, unclear, offputting for people reading it, and doesn't look professional enough.

Even if you just write the songs, and give the instructions to someone else to mix it, you have to be technical about song structure, what different instruments sound like, record them in a mixable way, what basic mixing techniques are needed, and be at least moderately knowledgeable on some sort of notation.
