Fuck My Arse

I've been working on this fucking track for 2 hours and then Ableton crashes. So I'm like, "Okay, it'll be fine, it has a project recovery feature". FUCK YOU, ABLETON 9 HAS NO PROJECT RECOVERY FEATURE.
Knowing how much it crashes on My laptop, I'm fucking uninstalling that cunt and going back to 8. At what point did they think "Hmm, we've added a bunch of new stuff, let's trim out the fat, how about the fucking PROJECT RECOVERY?! SOUNDS LIKE A FUCKING PLAN."

I just lost 2 hours of work on something I was really happy with, and I don't mean just MIDI work, oh no, I spent at least half an hour EQing and compressing that shit.

So My day's been pretty shitty so far, fucking people throwing shit at me all day and being.cunts, now this. And I won't go into any details but the bringer of bad news messaged me on Facebook and brought some fucking bad news, brilliant. And this elastic band isn't doing shit either, that psychiatrist hasn't spoken to me in ages. It's also worth mentioning that there's some fucking randomer in My house who looks lke she's come straight off the fucking Jeremy Kyle Show, she even has the baby and everything. She's one of My sister's friends and I'm not going downstairs until she's gone,not that I would anyway.

I usually listen to music when I get one of these depression waves but lately when I listen to stuff it just makes me even sadder and angrier because I can't make music that good.

I'd APPRECIATE it if you'd like My damn Facebook page, I only have 24 likes which means I.need 6 more for insights. I will love you if you do. Www.Facebook.com/Nepsotic
I'm starting to think that maybe I'm one of those CUNT teenagers who are consantly bitching about their life when actually it's not even bad, I.mean, most of My blogs are just moaning, it makes me feel even worse because a lot of you guys have REAL problems and I.don't know what I'm so fucking sad about.

It depends on how the group lesson works, but 1-on-1 time with a teacher is definitely important.

Also, playing in a group is one of the best things you'll ever do for your music, and the sooner you get onto it the better.

Bah. If everyone had that idea then there be very few artists out there. Stop comparing your music to other artists but take inspiration and all that shit. But yeah, liked on Facebook, part of the movement now and keep making sounds and all that.

@Manco: In my honest, humble and probably debatable opinion, theory isn't as important as it's made out to be and most teachers are over priced turds.

My best advice is veering totally to Phylum's; watch others play, play with other people. It's all free advice/tutoring and you'll be surprised at just how much you can learn. Take this from someone who yearns to play with other people EDIT sexually.

Every one of the artists you listen to started off being unable to make music that good. There's only one way to learn how to make good music; by starting off making bad music. Then making more music. And more music. And keeping at it until you're good.

But I used to make terrible music, and now I think the music I make is pretty okay, even my brother is impressed by some of the stuff I make.

I've been playing since I was 7 and I never got calluses for more than a few days at a time. =P

Don't get roped into half hour lessons by the way, you need a full hour to make any real progress, also don't do group lessons, but then I suppose that sort of thing extends to learning any instrument.

Longer lessons, one on one. Got it.

At the moment music theory isn’t high on my priorities; more the basic technique of using the instrument.

Not sure about playing in a group, mainly because I don’t have any musically-inclined friends, but I’ll keep it in mind for later down the line.

So far I’m taking things slowly, just picking my way through how to hold it, where to put my fingers etc. Short bursts, but it’s fun – and very different to anything I’ve done before, which is exactly what I was hoping for.

I also like how I’m slowly taking over Nepsotic’s blog.

What's your point? That just shows that it's working.

Or are you saying that you've been making music and you're not as good as the professionals yet? Dude, it takes longer than that.

I can attest to that. My writing has gotten so much better since I actually sat down and started doing it.
