The experimentation age is over

Posted by 50Steaks - October 11th, 2021


Looks like I’ve found out where I want to go with my music now. Taking inspiration from most of my past 34 songs plus incorporating some easier mixing ideas from more professional musicians, I will attempt to double down on the electronic side of things and just go all in. Obviously that is my favorite genre to produce as it provides by far the most flexibility and variety in my opinion, without having to individually score every note on a computer. I’ve tried discordant jazz and I’ve tried literally making symphonic covers but it hasn’t really amounted to any clear inspiration or direction like I hoped it would. So yeah no more Georgias then.

I try to think as a long term planner, and long term what I was doing is unsustainable because I feel I produce better music if I focus on one thing and make it really really good. Those of you who have been around for at least around 5 months will know what I’m talking about: we’re going back to basics. That’s not to say I gained nothing from the experimenting; in fact, quite the opposite. I’m glad I dabbled in other genres and I might even go to other genres in the future again in case I am in the mood to do so. But I got 2 songs upcoming, and they are likely to be my 2 best. One is almost finished and will be uploaded very soon. I hope this is the beginning of a new era, one with inspiration, direction, and 16 states.

Yeah, understandable. If you enjoy making one genre of music then go ahead. You can do many things in music, and if that's what you enjoy doing then go for it. Personally, I enjoy experimenting with styles and genres because I see it as unlocking a new genre that I can do. Or maybe it's that I haven't truly found my style and what I personally want to do with music. No matter what you want to do with your music, we'll be here to support you.

I think of it more as a centralization of my music rather than just producing one genre. What I mean is I’ll now try to produce different genres of electronic music rather than foolishly trying to nail every genre of music like I was trying to do before.
