golden advice, i always need to be reminded that i started for fun lol, and i meet a lot of other producers who are also kinda "crestfallen" hahaha. most of the hard parts of making music arent technical but mental, and not enough people talk about that, subbed.

I notice your using a catch frase at the end of your videos much like most of the growing music youtubers. Where did you learn these techniques and how did you realise this this what you should do? Did you just Make the observation your self like Me and decide to do it yourself?

AH man, I hate to be bagged up with all the "Other Music KZitemrs"... I actually "signed off" this way for the first time about 2 years ago. Keep Creating was just the first thing that popped into my head. And then I made a specific video about that and also released a line of Keep Creating Merch (Link in bio 😉)! And the "Bye for now" is something my Dad always says to me on the phone. I adapted that from him. It's nice to have the consistency too. I noticed another rather large youtuber dude who signs off almost identical to me.... I looked back on some of his vids and he didn't always do it like he does now.... hmmmmm makes you think!? 🧐

Hahaha...your deep. Listened to a few of your videos and it's like you know what's going on in my head, ( i think they call it well experienced). Fantastic angles to dealing with the demons in our heads stopping and doubting ourselves from going forward. Also, I hope you get true satisfaction from sharing your wisdom as the music business is overflowing with selfish glutinous ba$t4d$. Now I'm gonna make like an underwater war vessel and SUB! peace to you bro.

I'm so gratefull that i'm a big fat nerd when it comes to gear. Can't handle it when I don't know something so when I get something new it's 2-3 months of exploring it, re-reading the manual (rtfm all the way time after time), youtube until I'm sick of it. The thing I struggled with was creating the ideal set-up and not playing music a while to perfect it. It wasn't wrong, I went back to learn stuff like the Prophet X decently and focused on updating every single piece of gear before continuing, looking for better presets etc... Now it's back to doing and the workflow is 3x faster. Never sit still and if you're stuck with your set-up just do the other stuff you probably don't want to do when the set-up is finished.

I deeply appreciate the wisdom you have been sharing lately, especially when considering that it is so counter to the prevailing attitudes put forth by other content creators in this arena. My only complaint is that I did not hear it sooner (ignoring whether I would have actually heeded it), would have saved me a lot of frustration. Keep spreading the good word, it will click with the right people when they are ready to receive it.

Great advice mate! I love the new direction of your content… more on the mindset and self development… your observations resonate with many of us … I also have noticed a growing trend of music producers adopting a minimalist approach in their studio, by getting rid of most of their gear … too much gear can be distracting during the creative process … anyway, thank for your content … love your work and your recent tracks!!

Thanks so much Jeff! I'm glad the new direction is well received. I truly believe most tutorials aren't solving peoples problems, they are in-fact adding to them. Gear still has its place, but it's just whether or not you are controlling the gear or the gear is controlling you! 😉

This was my issue over the pandemic til now. Collecting gear cuz I was new, not knowing what I wanted so it all seemed good. Couple thousand dollars later and I’ve barely scratched the surface of most of their capabilities! More anxiety than music tbh! Gonna start paring down my spaceship 🚀

REAL QUESTION please give me an honest opinion of the AIAIAI low latency headphones 🎧 i mean the sound. i use JBL Tune 660 NC (75€) because I need a particular sound in my ears. I also use the cheap 15€ JBL T160 earphones and use JBL Endurance Race TWS earbuds when out and about (and sometimes in the shower, don't ask) 😂 But.. I really want these AIAIAI low latency wireless to sound good as well as perform. The price is the reason I haven't been able to make a decision. For reference, I have tested the Audio Technica M50x and they sounded too flat for me. I need bass to bloodclaat 🇯🇲 🎺 😁 Help me 🙏🏽❤️

You are right, but not when it comes to creating music with a really bad PC, it's basically impossible to use any live rendering instruments, you have to play around with one instrument, make a sample out of it and hope it sounds good enough, time is a big factor to this, and if something takes longer than it should, it definitely gives you a good excuse to say "Alright, this is annoying and I am not having it this way, I'd rather buy myself a good PC first before I create anymore music". When it comes to effects and other hardware except good headphones and an audio interface, I agree, don't make excuses for no good reason.

I am continually amazed at the number of “producers” out there who surround themselves with only the best gear (of course) who have never actually completed or released a track. It’s a tough and technical endeavor, but one day, some day, you have to “produce” something. Great video.

Good thoughts. Ppl get in their head too much & become their worst enemy. I think many folks have a fear of just sounding bad. One thing I teach my daughter over & over, is that some of the best ppl to know are the ppl that aren’t afraid to act a little silly.
