Haha i drink Bacardi, and they dont pay me a penny. I feel we all have our own comfort zones and experiment within them, if a mould is broken then its usually by accident. I dont know if 'breaking the mould' in the true sense has ever happened as a conscious decision. I've never really thought about it as a standard but personally I have really enjoyed writing to this set structure, its somehow quite inspiring giving yourself a determined amount of time to achieve what you want to achieve. Introducing elements and compositional ideas and eventually building up energy for a 'drop'. I do however think its a rule that can be utilised creatively, an intro to me, even though sometimes it must be a pre determined length for performance sake, is like a challenge. For that reason i've never considered it to be a particular 'song' structure, to me its simply been a format well suited to DJ performance. I actually have never thought about it like that! Im sure you know the reason for the 32 bar roll-in etc so i wont go into too much detail, but i think it is the way it is because of DJ mentality rather than producer mentality. Hope I could help even though I'm not flux lol Just try to imitate some popular sounds or even "steal" the entire style of another artist, as long as you don't try to copy an entire song (and therefore still working creatively) and as long as your producing something it's good )

That can be easier as it may sound first. And if you don't have any ideas for original songs, just make a completely cliché, generic progressive house/dubstep/d'n'b/whatever genre song. Well: learn it! ) There is no "best way to learn", everything pretty much just happens when you jut keep on producing. I bet there are some effects, techniques or functions you heard of or maybe even use without actually knowing every detail about it. YouTube is also extremely helpful for all kinds of tutorials.

Sometimes you also find some questions while producing that this sub or other online guides can answer (or maybe you even find a solution yourself?). I also thought "well theres more to learn but I just don't know what exactly" very often, but I pretty much just stumbled across new, helpful techniques simply by always staying interested, looking up and trying new stuff.

Also try to learn all sorts of techniques for your effects/generally software (when I learned about parallel compression. Listing some random stuff that helped me: Always read the tips on this subreddit! seriously it's extremely helpful.

Consider me Subscribed!!ĮDIT 23:26 Couple of questions that i didnt manage to answer have been bugging me, so im back to answer them, but then i gotta go finish my album! Respect to mwd410 for doing his thing, and everyone thank Tripleggg694 for getting me on here in the first place! Happy producing and i hope some of the things i have learnt in my time can help you guys to enjoy writing music as much as i do. Its a real good thing that this Subreddit exists and im really glad i got an oppurtunity to come on here and share some of my thoughts. Gonna let some questions roll in and then hit the board in a bit and will answer as much as i can until about 9pm GMTĮDIT 21:07 Thanks everyone its actually been quite inspiring having a chance to talk about writing music and techniques. Sounded like an awesome idea so here i am! I was approached by a few people from this Sub requesting that i come on here to share my views on some issues a little bit more production specific. Had a quite a few people during my AMA for a Reddit a few months ago dropping some pretty in depth production based questions and it was quite a struggle to really go into any depth amongst the broader discussions.
