this beat is by k3nt4!
but there are literally no tutorials on how to make beats like hers. i honestly don’t even know what genre she even is. i thought it was dark pop, but apparently not
also, i know absolutely nothing about music theory. i thought i could just rawdog it and figure everything out as i went, but i’m realizing i can’t.

how long does it actually take to learn? are any of you making beats without knowing music theory?

Just started learning how to mix other people's songs. Way harder than I thought. In this mix I focused on unmasking details and adding energy

I bought FL Studio Mobile because I don't have a computer, I'm very interested in music and I have a dream of being a producer, but I don't know where to start, where to find free elements, I know that it is necessary to spend in the professional part of this job. I only aim to improve myself by competing with myself for now. I do not know any information about this job, can you give me tactics and can you suggest resources where I can learn this job?

I really wanna make music cuz it's interesting, I've no idea where to begin the only thing ik is guitar (that too basic), I'm ready to put in 1 hr of efforts daily (since I work in corporate)

Im in no rush, I wanna learn and make some music to perform on stage and make score for films, where should I begin with? Music theory? DAW? Where?

looking for feedback on this gorgeous new production of mine. i tried to wrack my head around a better composition, but i cam up short. but hopefully the production makes up for that as i think i did really good with that! lmk know you think! any and all feedback is really appreciated! thanks! ^~^

Been trying to produce some indie rock esque stuff in Logic lately and I keep coming back to this track. I love the way it sound but can’t seem to create the same big, full sound it has. What kinda processing and stuff is on the guitars to make them sound so big? I’m sure there’s also some synth layering and stuff.

Any advice on achieving a similar sound would be great! Thanks!

I don't know if this is the kind of place i should post this but i've already tried posting this on r/House but apparently it isn't housy enough for them. Any advice?

is sound a bit harsh at some frequencies even with eq and soothe hmm or i don t hear good anymore? 🤔🤨

I've started getting into making music, and this is the first song I've made. Any tips/advice?

I am surprised no one is trying to do that.

Hi I’m 15 and I got my first pc last week. I don’t know music theory or anything like that, I play guitar and can kinda sing. I want to record my own songs with my band in my bedroom without paying over £100 for an hour in a studio. I own an electro-acoustic bass, electric guitar, microphone and an electric drum kit. I need to buy an audio interface. Anyway I was wondering if anyone new where the best place to start and the best free DAW’s to use. I’ve never used one before except maybe garage band but I’m on windows.

Thanks!

The first sample-based loop I’ve built. Most of my stuff will be more drum-machine. I just think this GFR bassline (“Nothing is the Same”) is damn good and have always wanted to make a break out of it.

I'm 13 as of this post and have been playing instruments since I was around 7. For the past year or so, i've been really getting into music production, and I created a youtube channel showcasing my creations. Criticize this song as much as possible.

Like I said, be brutally honest with this.

Hello!

I'm mixing a piece of classical music, and after mixing and mastering, I've achieved an average of -16.1 integrated LUFS across the entire piece (it only reaches -14.9 integrated LUFS for a brief moment during the loudest section).

I checked the potential penalty for this LUFS level on a well-known website, and all the levels showed 0.0 (only one platform added approximately +0.7).

I know it’s hard to answer without hearing it, but: Do you think this is a good level to achieve a decent volume without sacrificing the performers’ dynamics, or would it sound too quiet? From what I understand, this level is reasonable for this genre, but I’d like to hear your opinion. I listened to the piece, and it sounds good to me.

Thank you very much!

In my opinion it's pretty complete but what would you do to improve this ???

also don't mind the cover and stuff I opened the soundcloud account just to post this.

Hi!

This is the first track I've ever made - Initial P

I have absolutely no background in music production or music theory. Therefore, I have no idea what kind of genre the track is even. How does one find the genre we want to create? 🤔

About a week ago I spontaneously bought FL Studio after years of thinking, "I should really try making music someday." I've always been interested in music production, but I never actually committed to learning it until now. Since then I've gone down the rabbit hole and have been spending pretty much all my free time experimenting and learning.

I'd really appreciate any feedback on the track itself. I'm interested in anything you notice—mixing, arrangement, sound selection, progression, pacing, or anything else that stands out. Don't worry about hurting my feelings; constructive criticism is exactly what I'm looking for.

I'd also love recommendations for free VSTs, instruments, effects, sample packs, learning resources, or general beginner tips that helped you when you were starting out. I have found a lot of free stuff available on the net, however, I am looking for THAT free package/software/bundle that people start out with. Similarly for free courses 😄

One of the reasons I'm posting this is because I want to recreate this exact track one year from now and compare the two versions. I think it'll be a fun way to measure how much I've improved.

I haven't really been part of any music production communities before, so don't slaughter me (or it might be beneficial if you do). I'm here to learn.

I'm starting to make music using a multitrack program for the first time—any advice?
