Homegrove Played for 4 hours last night, mostly new music, and listened to recording today. A very humbling experience. Key clashes all over the place, no clue of any flow. The moment you think you’re good you’re not. Over confidence is a bad thing too.
baggers44 Homegrove i wd not be too hard on yourself! the flow if it ever comes (hardly ever for me) comes from knowing your records really well and having an instinct for what will work - rarely happens when working with a lot of new tracks - still what do i know - you are miles better than me!!!! i would totally shit myself playing on strange equipment to any actual humans!!!!!
Homegrove Wasn’t being too hard on myself, more happy. Keeps me focused knowing I still can’t half ass this after 19 years.
Amps Dubman Have just been listening to someone do a ‘guest mix’ on 6 Music and it’s basically this. Can’t see who it is, but I can only assume they are a producer of some sort, because if they where a DJ they would be out of work.
Amps Mad_Cyril In fairness, physical lessons, stood next to someone is by far the quickest way to learn imo. Worked for me anyway.
303abuser i’m going to stop giving out advice in this thread. i go to start sampling some old records, took me 15 minutes to figure out that the stylus wasn’t fucked, the weight on the tone arm was just off a bit. 😅
Amps 303abuser Once tried to change the fuse on mine, it was still plugged into the socket… took days for the metallic taste to leave my mouth.
