It's kind of a slap in the face to work hard on something and having someone tell you it's no good, but later on, you'll appreciate it. It's much better than everyone around you sweet-talking you, and looking like a fool in the process.

damn plainflavored, ive seen you give out at least 3 solid, insightful pieces of advice this week. are you going guru on us?

and if so what should i do about my love life?

The cycle of Plain Flavored:

Writing music with your girl is alright, but never write a song for her.

The cycle of Plain Flavored looks exactly like The cycle of Cocaine Intake.

Coincidence?

Yes but you don't market yourself on chipmusic.org, because that would be marketing yourself to other MUSICIANS and we are not your customers, we are your _competitors_. This is for networking and making friends, not marketing. Marketing is what you do on Facebook, Myspace, etc.

What he's saying is that tracks should be left alone for a time. When you listen to them again, you'll have fresh ears and can better judge if you like it or not. It's easy to get into a groove while making music, and once you finish you get this micro-orgasm that tells you it's the best thing ever. Chalking the track instantly up for release is however the equivalent of rolling over and going to sleep. Feels great at that moment, but there's a high chance it'll leave your audience unsatisfied.





Hmm, I may have gone overboard with that analogy. tongue

It is definitely true. If you're going to be a maker of anything, you should be practicing every day, and most of what you make will be just practice.

Tell us, why do you think that is? I'm not trying to be a jerk, I really want to hear what you have to say about it.

Yea but a forum of self involved promoters wouldn't be very entertaining now would it?

Wow, I didn't think you guys would all latch onto that one word. I know none of us are really in competition with each other, but to someone who is obviously completely incapable of understanding what chipmusic.org is for, I needed to use some strong language. Hence, my diction.
