I am a producer for 16 years and I am not thinking about stopping anytime soon no matter what. Life has tried to stop me but as I already explained in my introduction I refuse to give up.
First reason is that I create music for me and myself only, and there are many tracks that will stay in my personal library but still we all want recognition in what we are doing so of course I do release the tracks that I am proud of.
Second reason is that I refuse to stop doing what I love doing even when 50% of my hearing just died two years ago. I stopped creating for four months but then things started nagging in the back of my head. After a good conversation with myself I decided to pick things up again and do it radically different. No more lauzy trance and wanna be hiphop. I started creating what I always loved so much, videogame music inspired by the old chiptunes of the good old NES and Genesis.
Nowdays this IS what let me keep my head up in times when I do feel down. Yes I did lose something precious (hearing in stereo) but it also made me stronger knowing that even this does not let me stop doing what I love doing. So motivation is nothing but a personal thing.
Do you make music for yourself or are you trying to do something to impress others with?
If your answer is the first then I am sure you will reach what you want as long as you believe and don't give up dreaming.
if its the second... then I wish you good luck.
Keep up the creativity!
