hmmm, i put a fair few tracks up on here recently, the advice i am mainly looking for is on the production, does everything sound ok etc etc u know the deal. i do also like to hear peoples opinions on a wider scale, in general, do they like it? tbh im not realy a creatively confident person so it helps for the next track i move on to that people are feeling the one before.
i used to do as logikz and as soon as other people had heared it, forget about it, even if it was just 80 bars or whatever, something id started working on. and tbh its not healthy... but i do wan't something to come of what i spend alot of my time doing, so i make it a point not to start something new until i have it sounding as best at this point in my knowledge pool i guess.
I had maybe 100+ ( a full CD of reason files and snippets) just a few months after getting reason.
I also thing it helps leaving feedback to others, noticing how other people work, picking up on what they do well, learn from it, picking up on mistakes, learn from that too, hearing fresh tracks that haven't been mastered, probably mixed down too, thinking to yourself what would i do?
Very good for learning if you ask me, but i also feel it can turn into a kinda comfort zone, i hear tunes on here that i think i could be spinning on my decks, but i dunno, maybe people don't have the confidence to send them out, maybe they are but the labels aren't feeling it, who knows... but its important to venture away from here too, have some confidence in yourself and trust in yourself to be able to send it out to a lable.
I sent Give You My Bass to Bailey, watched his video stream and it got a realy good response and no1 knew i'd done it until a few people asked for an ID, asking if it was going to be released etc...
sorry for the wall of text lol, had more to add but cba atm
