what is the point of putting effort into making and releasing music if no one is even listening? >Inb4 "for myself"Isn't music meant to be heard by people?
>>131102321Dude just send it to other artists in your genre, eventually youll make some friends
people will listen if you make music that is based on traditions older than a few decades
>>131102327Lol
>>131102321doing it for a few thousands of entitled and insufferable soijak redittards is even worse, you would know if you had ever released anything.you won't help you with sex either.there's only the money, and increasingly less of it to be made.
>>131102429I have been releasing for the past 6 years, the most attention I have gotten was from instagram clips of my music videos. Max was 8 likes.
>>131102321i just wanna make a songs im proud of. I don't need hundreds of people to like it, just random anons saying its good will make me happy.
>>131102321I dunno man, i make music when i feel like i need to, releasing it is a tertiary care at best - especially on the internet. If i were planning a physical release i would think twice about it but putting stuff online is fine. I even earned 150 bucks even though my bandcamp is NYP so thats cool i guess
>>131102458XDGrimMake better music
>>131102825Kill yourself
>>131102837Nah man you just need to make better music
I have made music that some people listen to. like 10,000 plays overallbut for me making music is a combination of therapy and trying to master something. I'd be lying if I said that I didn't want people to listen to my music and think that it's good, but most of the actual enjoyment comes from the flow state of the process. When I am regularly working on music my entire mental health and general life outlook is wildly better than if I'm not
>>131102321post it in the shill threads, you're guaranteed to become a success overnight
>>131103083lmao
no offense but if you have this attitude you shouldn't be making art in the first place champ
>>131102321Art is a reflection of self and its surroundings.What happens with art after it's created is what was meant to happen.Sidenote - pop music or really any release made solely for money, as a product, with nothing more than a basic thought tossed the way of composition, arrangement, interplay and interesting musical ideas is not art.Reevaluation is in order if you believe your music has been heavily influenced by pop music
>>131103650reddit is that way
>>131103917Poptimist scum faggot
>>131103917actually you're a redditor, sorry, you lose, better luck next time
>>131102321you really shouldn't be on this website, or this board, if you actually want to share music or are serious about making it and having an audience. the entire site is designed only for crabs in buckets to drag you down and depress the fuck out of you. any creative endeavor, anything you actually want to share, you should be sharing somewhere else first. even if people like you here to begin with, they'll just hate you when you actually get some kind of recognition later.
>>131104023Maybe you just actually suck and the praise you recieved is due only to the praise you have given
>>131104052case in point
>>131104283Was just RPing as what you described. Glad you found success with your music in the real world!
>>131103976>>131103980>its all sunshine and rainbows bro>art is art!disgusting. libtard tier.
>>131104023This. Just look at the shill threads lmao
>>131104052you haven't even listened to my music, cocksucker eat my shit
>>131104523where else should i shill? fucking reddit?
>>131104550tik tok, youtube shorts, instagram reels, any app that's designed to shoot you in front of millions of people a day if your shit is even remotely entertaining for 5 seconds. post your tracks on soundcloud and youtube. shilling on reddit doesn't really work at all for anyone unless you're already somewhat established.
>>131102321>Isn't music meant to be heard by people?kek no I'm an asocial narcissist I make music videos to look at myself play and sing it's the same reason I talk to myself all the time
>>131104510>the more cynical your worldview is the smarter you arehow's high school going buddy
>>131105045im also like this, do you masturbate to pictures of yourself/the mirror too?
Is hobbyist music really getting the shills THIS ass blasted? I've noticed these types of threads and posts on /prod/ and /dmp/, seems to me that the jews don't want the goy to make music at home.
I cope by telling myself my work is too ahead of its time and won't be appreciated until long after my death
>>131102321>Isn't music meant to be heard by people?yeah and im people. i just make shit for myself and dont release it. whats wrong with that? if i feel the need to share, i will, but i havent felt that yet.
>>131102825nta, but its got nothing to do with "better music" and is entirely about making whatever is trendy and people are chasing. its why every instagram video uses the same 15 songs for every damn reel and it changes to 15 new tracks every month.
>>131105928Based. Same. I just write music as a form a therapy and every song I made is named after a person in my life. If I ever released that shit it would be awkward af cause they'll know.
