Forum Game: Answer the question asked above

[Scooblee]

Heck, I don't even know what genre(s) I compose for in the first place, so I'd like to figure that out first. But, to answer the question, most all of them, for flexibility.

Should I actually ask legitimate questions or just continue to spout random nonsense questions?

[ExoBassTix]

I'd request serious questions as they are so much more interesting for me, but I'm not here to tell you who you should be so it's your decision.

I don't remember a lot of occasions where I've managed to open a work-in-progress project of mine and finish it, or get close to finishing it. Yet here's an entire album (think "Experimental meets the entire *core spectrum and more") that I'm working on, of which almost all tracks are in work-in-progress state, which means that I've got all of them a 15-30 second piece fully (semi-)finished, and nothing more. Does anyone know what to do to fix this, or work around the issue?

[Dreamland200]

Sorry man, have no idea. :(

Will you submit something for Soft Spectrum III?

[Callenby]

Nope.

How long does it typically take you to complete a track?

[FLAOFEI]

Well... FLs work timer usually ends up anywhere between 10 and 20 hours for a good track. Max ever is around 40h for my colab with Jokeblue (most fun project ever!). Sometimes though I get a stroke of inspiration and finish stuff in 5h. I have no idea how that's even posible, but they usually sound good.
If you count the time from starting the project to rendering the final... 1-2 weeks, or 5 - 8 months... Eeyup... Usually months, since I get a bit into it and then inspiration dies... I also learnt the hard way that forceing stuff is an extremley bad idea (sorry for making our colab suck Callenby)...

This might be of interest for Exo. I saw a documentary about creativity, and how to train it the other day. It basically said one thing: We have many creative ideas all the time, but we automatically filter out most of them before we concider them. Through training we can filter out less ideas, thus become more creative. We can practice this all the time, simply by not saying no to the ideas we get. So if youre making brekfast and suddenly wonder if bbq sauce goes well with fried eggs, try it and become more in touch with your creativity!
Might not help straight away... but idk, creativity is a good thing to have anyway :3

And on topic again:
Do you want to/ have you built a musical instrument?

[Callenby]

(sorry for making our colab suck Callenby)...

'salright

Do you want to/ have you built a musical instrument?

Yes I do but no I haven't.

What's your greatest music-related regret?

My problem is that I don't have these ideas when I want to have it. I never say no to an idea, so yeah...

XD
No promises man. It just might, it just might not.
We'll see.

Would you consider your taste in music (what you normally listen to) broad?

[DJ TATCM]

My answer is: Doesn't everyone?

My question also happens to be: Doesn't everyone? i'd really like to see if there's any music maker out there who is willing to admit that they don't have broad taste haha

[Ricky Denzel]

Uhhh..... Can I get the definition


Star Wars or Star Trek

[FLAOFEI]

Doesn't everyone?

Well... it all depends on the definition, but latley ive been realieing when listening to some music 'Wow, this realy does nothing for me'. Then again, it all depends on the ocasion. Sometimes I like those genres to
Anyway. I like a fairly broad range of music, but theres an even broader range of music that I don't crae much for.

And Ricky, Starwars.

Is music-making your passion or is it more of a hobby for you?

[ExoBassTix]

It's pretty much my life anyways, so passion works.

What exactly is music to you? (Bonus points if it's a huge (sob) story!)

[FLAOFEI]

One time when I was sad I listrned to music :O
Nah. I often overthink things, alot. I don't let things go for years! If I made a small mistake that I start regreting I can't stop thinking about it... ever... That's why I listen to music. Cause it distracts me from my thoughts :o
yeh, it's partially true at least

Do you think the world will succeed in not dieing from global warming?

[ExoBassTix]

If it wants to.

Do you think I, or we for that matter, have a choice?

[Ricky Denzel]

Yes and no one can't take that away from me

Are we actually real or just an illusion?

[FLAOFEI]

How can we be real if mirrors aren't real?

How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren't real?
