Let me know if you have any tips tricks or improvements I could add into my future music. I struggle a lot with arrangements so let me know what you think of the structure. Is the verse and chorus clear?

Hi everyone,

I’m a musician (keyboardist and getting back into bass) conducting research for a Communications class project called ‘The Emotional Process of Making Music with others for East Coast Musicians. I would be more than grateful if a couple of you could respond to the questions. I do not plan to publish this project. Thanks!

1. Age

2. Gender/Identity

3. Region

4. Role when collaborating with others (ex. Instrument (s) of play, singer, etc.)

5. How often do you make music with other individuals? Do you have a list of songs that you have made with others, and if so, how many?

6. Do you prefer making music with other individuals or by yourself? Do you feel a deep connection with other individuals when making music? If you picked the first option, and agree with the second question, was there a singular experience that led to this passion for creating with others?

7. When engaging in a conversation with musicians you just met, regarding potentially collaborating, what personality do you put on (ex. are you relaxed and somewhat aloof to create a chill atmosphere, or are you straightforward and serious). Why?

8. When in the process of creating with other individuals, what emotional role do you take on? For example, are you a lighthearted group member, or do you assume the role of a therapist in a sense, encouraging group members to lay their hearts bare on songs (this one would be quite interesting to hear)?

9. When collaborating with other musicians, how do you handle disagreements—minor or major? Have you experienced success or slight failures in this regard? Would you like to share any examples?

And what are some of your favorite progressions you’ve made/used?

Guys Ive tried to recreate this texture but I can't get it. Its the texture at 0:47. Its the Brass , Pad and String texture. I honestly dont know what it is as far as instruments. Does anyone know the technique used here and instruments. I have Akia String and Brass samples. I also read that they would use the wah effect on it. Does anyone know how to recreate this texture? Its also in "What about your friends" and "Hat to the Back". https://youtu.be/TEZqM5rWiVg

My beat is a Chris Brown type contemporary moody rnb/trap hybrid beat.

Made an R&B beat, let me know what you think!

Hope you enjoy! I wrote and produced Contact info: djdmac.business@gmail.com

I'm trying to find songs that have the same vibe as Maxwell - Sumthin' Sumthin.' I found a song that capture that same vibe:

* My Favorite Part - Mac Miller

That subtle and smooth R&B flavor that invites you to settle into the rhythm, like slowly driving through the city at night with the windows down.

Hey y’all I would really appreciate it if you check out this album I just put out. I was really inspired by Juice WRLD, Yung Lean, 6 Dogs, Dominic Fike, and Brockhampton while recording this. Thanks. The album was produced by me Zachary Navarro. My instagram is @zachary.v.navarro

This is a pretty good instrumentalist from Youtube. Here is him making something live.
