Dawn thoughts #1 music by LunaMoon

Well I just wanted to write something about music, so here we go...

Sometimes I wonder... 'is my mixing good?', to be honest it is good to me, maybe different, I have my own style I guess, but it works better on a headphone, playing it in a speaker will suppress some synths and the bass will mostly prevail, at least it sounds good if you like songs with strong bass lol...
My kick also sound weak, I still don't know how to make it sound more present without bursting the sound... but that's my fault 'cause I don't like to watch tutorials on how to xP

Am I creative? to be honest again, I only like my recent songs, starting with Poseidon and going forward to Oblivion (not elder scrolls related!) and so on... Empty Equinox is an old exception, that shit slaps and you can't say otherwise!!!!!!!!
Most songs I make (wips, scraps, etc) sounds bad, believe me, but I guess that makes part... I just suck at learning. Sometimes I end up making something good (my recent songs, well) and sometimes I end up making something bad.

I was impressed by someone that looked like they had 200+ fl studio projects a long while ago and now I was struggling to organize my own 200 .fla folder (I could delete 80% of them since they're all crap but tbh I don't even remember what they have inside)

Do I make too much patterns? That would be more of a genuine question, my last song had 101 patterns and my average is 60-70 for metal songs and ~30 for electronic... I don't have problems finding what I want though, but I don't organize nothing at all nor I name the patterns or channels or anything really... I don't need to I guess. I also don't use the channel rack, at least not to put notes... it feels useless to me... I know there are people that make a whole song using only one pattern, GET AWAY FROM ME

You don't want to hear my old stuff, I used to make things using FL Slayer, I don't need to say any further, right... Fl Slayer is mixed in a very weird way and it sounds loud asf... I challenge you to make a good song with that... I might give it a try as well... maybe change the guitars of one of my songs to FL Slayer and see what happens lol (I'll probably comically explode)

Aaaaand that's everything I wrote! Cahem if you're wondering if I'll ever make a song with vocals, the answer is yesn't

If you're reading this on Weasyl, aware that I didn't post the 'final' versions of Oblivion and Pulse of the Earth by the time this journal is out. I will eventually.

    Ha-ha..........I don't know much about making music or the details of "appreciation" or "creation". I'm more of the kind of person who hears something and likes it--which is probably why I sometimes like televison theme songs as much as stuff on the radio. I have a way of leaning more towards harder instruments in songs--like guitars and drums, which is why I tend to like a lot of classic rock/hair bands/metal. But I find I appreciate any kind of music that allows an instrument of any sort to "shine". :)

    Incidentially--I kinda think your stuff sounds better with headphones, too. I look at stuff on Weasyl either on my phone (when I'm offline) or on my laptop (when I'm at work with wi-fi)--and if I see you've made a music post, I will usually wait until I'm at work and I can plug headphones into my laptop and listen to it, over just listening on my phone. :)
