/prod/

I know /prod/ is dead but I don't have any friends who make music and I need help.

I've been working on this track for the last little bit and I loved it up until last night I got stoned and my perspective changed. Did I over do it with the vocal chops? I used to love them dancing around the whole track but now I'm worried it's too much.

If any of you could listen to my track start to finish and let me know that would be much appreciated.

>/prod/ is dead

But OP, I'm pretty okay with the track you posted. If there's any nitpick I would have, it's to let the bit around 1:35 sink in more before you go back to chopping again.

These threads die quickly every time, but those with a specific producion related theme (like the DAW one that died some hours ago and the sound design from a few days earlier) stay up nearly to the bump limit.

I suspect there are lots of people interested in discussing music production but don't bother coming here for one reason or another.

We have to do something o make the disussions interesting, so the threads aren't just feedback and simple questions answerable with Google.

Any ideas?

I dunno actually. Personally I never came for techniques or sound design questions from Sup Forums because I never found much of their advice useful, or it was stuff I already knew. I would only ever come for human feedback/opinions because I have no friends who make music and I'm the only person who listens to my tracks up until release. So like this thread I made now, I just want another set of ears so I know if I'm going in the right direction with my music or not.

Exactly.
That's what everyone thinks.
But what if ot had interesting discussions about non-basic things?
You'd have more incentive to come here, no?

well yeah, but we can't change the community as a whole that easily. Most of the time it's just user's talking shit and hating. I'm gonna say that 90% (if not higher) of the Sup Forums population is a total beginner, with very basic composition and design abilities - yet talk a huge game and shit talk other people who actually have full, more detailed sounding tracks. That's why I dipped away from /prod/. Couldn't handle some guy talking down to my tracks and then posting an autism mess of car alarm sounds.

>muh modular experimental ambient drones

thats a really cozy looking room user

Those threads are dying because most of the time you just post electro/soundcloudwave clyps.

There isn't much technique/advice for electro, because that genre heavly relies on personal taste.

rename it to /electro prod/ or something

/comp/ was pretty insightful sometimes, good advice because the genre it involved was actually a genre you could critique well

Are there any programs that do negative convolution? Like accentuating the dissimilarities between the two signals.

Or, make /prod/ more about specific soft/hardware rather than "rate my shitty clyp".

Be more specific about the actual PRODUCING process and write it in the fucking OP.
