How many people here making music?

[Rukas]

I just wanna know how many people here on the music hustle right now? I know Militant is, Ghetto is, Eric is, anybody else?

Listen guys I really want to get the music portion of the forum popping, with a new name (open to suggestions), tutorials, etc etc. I got some dope ideas for that section but I need the current musicians support to attract new people.

Who doing what right now?

 

[Eric]

I do, but I have a real job that interferes with it. More so in the past 6 months than before. Although, with inspiration with a makeover of the said forum, there could be a change. And I'll also teach Rizzle how to progress in beat making.

 

[Eric]

Also, PS: we should make a poll to see who did the better song with Lil Wayne

i've been making music for awhile, i just never had an interest in really posting it on the board, except once a few years ago i posted some remixes i made, non tupac related, and just wanted to see what people thought of how i flipped the songs i sampled. and there was a time i chopped up some drunk voice messages eric left me and put them over this really put together electronic sounding beat i made in pro tools. other than that i have never really felt a need to post anything i make on the board.

i mainly just focus on mixing now more than making beats. keeping up on my tricks, improving on my skills, learning new tricks to make that boooooooom

If you create a new section, I will give advice where I can.

I gave a talk on the industry at a University here a few months back, all the students really appreciated it. They wanted to know about royalties, representation (management/lawyers/agents/PR companies), majors vs indies, common pitfalls etc etc etc.

I'm sure between a few of us here we could make an interesting section for people wanting to know about life as a professional musician/working in the music industry.

you dont know the first thing about mastering music so do everyone a favor and never say you master music again

 

[DarkPhantom13]

I do as well, but my job and our own projects take up too much of my time sometimes. Ruk i still even owe you a beat for shits sake. Puff maybe me and you can get a Pro Tools manual going in which we can go thru the basics of using it to produce, record, and even master.

lol.....speaking of mastering, Puff, have you used the Brainworx plugin? It's fucking awesome.

 

[PuffnScruff]

no i haven't, who makes the plugin? is it tdm, vst, rtas,au,etc?

i like the pro tools idea, i don't think many people on here use it outside of us, but maybe this could sway people into using is for their DAW

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

I dont..my sister does though.

I'll PM you with a link.

Pro Tools is the shit though. My cousin switched from Logic to Pro Tools about 18 months ago and ain't looked back. Don't have it myself yet at home but I don't need to right now since I'm at my cousin's studio all the time.

I think the fact that it's a hardware/software combination puts people off - well, those that are hobbyists as opposed to working professional musicians, anyway.

LOL this is funny for some reason.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Well Im a funny guy...well no im not.

ill say whatever i want to say so suck my dick bitch. you had to take a damn course to learn the basics ... i learned it just through asking questions and messing around. imagine how well i would do if i took a course? don't under estimate me im not who you want me to be.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Calm down Rahim.

 

[Rahim]

Calm down Rahim.

im calm man i love music i love making music and i want to be rich and famous from doing it..not famous that everyone should put my face up in the billboards but when ppl here my music they should be like damn this shit is good they dont even have to know who i am..just know my name and what i stand for. My name is Rahim and i like music.

 

[S O F I]

I wouldn't be surprised if Rahim became rich. Bullied people with shitty childhoods tend to become rich and famous.
