Hey there. My name is Skyler and I produce ok sounding electronic music. I'm no Skrillex but my sounds aren't that bad either. I'm looking for general feedback on the sounds I've been producing over the past month. It's electronic so I know it's not everyones cup of tea.

Hey I checked out your track Heartache, and I must say I really dig the minimal and atmospherical vibes.Pretty solid! Do you have a set of assorted things you like to make or do you make as you feel?
Either way, solid work! I followed you bytheway
EDIT: I read some of the responses here, using loops isnt so bad, you can always chop/rearrange them to make them your own. I hope you don't quit music though. This is a great hobby/career path with good benefits in my opinion. And I see you use FL Studio? Thats what I have been using. Ive been using it since 3.4, if that doesnt show my age ugh I don't know what will. FL is a very fun program. If you need any assistance, feel free to PM me with any questions either here or on soundcloud. I'd be happy to help you out with any sounds, samples, etc. I like to share any resources whenever I can. Check out my stuff and if you like anything specifically, again, just ask and I'll guide you in the right direction! Keep it up!
EDIT2: Also there is nothing wrong with releasing songs quickly. Savant releases whole albums within just one month. Loops or not, I don't think somebody should be reprimanded for it. And negativity is not a way to critique somebody who is actually trying. Be a little nicer to your community, guys.

Yeah after reading all of the comments and listening to a few things I can find it clear you are using third party pre-made loops, Although that's not all bad, When I first started wanting to produce I started with Pre-made loops (Except you know I didn't put them public because copyright). I recommend you try playing with other things that aren't iOS apps because, you won't get much with that. Try Ableton Live, Reason 7, FL studio, etc. Once when you get the hang of something that requires a lot more effort and imagination (as in using the programs I listed) You'll love it, Once when I graduate High School I am going to take music Classes at Portland State University.
I wish you the best of luck.

You release songs quickly

Well they do only take around half an hour to make with pre-recorded beats
First 10 minutes: Find good rythem of beats
Second 10 minutes: Play them out trying to match them correctly
Last few: Publishing and adding cosmetics

Best one so far

Aww you're sweet lol. The most popular one has been TMAA. But my favorite is Last Night's Regret.

I don't want to be hated by you for not liking your music, or just be flat out rude like some other people. You have talent, you make music unlike alot of people. But you use pre-recorded beats, etc. Nothing is wrong with that. Just if you can ever, try to move to your own actual making of the beat if that makes sense. I really like your music, just don't like some of the ways you made it.
5/10.

I love it when pmcers do stuff like this

Right? I have a guy who says this isn't real music, and then links to a metal song. Then there's a guy saying I'm not an artist when I never claimed to be, and then there's people acting all high and mighty. I was just trying to share something I made
1
I started out using pre-made loops in ACID Pro but then I switch to FL Studio. You'll get somewhere eventually. I've been making music since 2011 and I still haven't really gotten anywhere yet (career wise). Just give yourself a few years and you'll start to get noticed. Here's where I've gotten since 2011: https://soundcloud.com/volatice/volatice-spirit (I'm in no way advertising).

Oh boy the pre-made loops burn my ears.
But hey, if you like doing so go ahead!

dorro123Lol I do agree there are way too many electronic artists out there but he can do what he wants to do. Give him a chance.Dunlan_Willowbodorro123Terrible.
3. There are far too many electronic artists out there as it is. We don't need another. Do something different.
Woah woah woah. Thats a bit harsh. You can't just stop doing something you like because too many people are doing it.
I never said stop, I said "Do something different". Electronic music is so open-ended.
I enjoy some Electronic/Electronic Metalcore. If this was a whole album i'd give it about a 1.8/5.

1. You do realize that this is incredibly basic and barebones? This is HKSC without the GrindMetal influence.
2. You're using an iOS app. It sounds like an NES having bad flatulence. I hope you don't plan to sell this, either.

Music is not looping the same thing over and over again.
This is music:

If you don't like it then don't listen to it. That simple.[/b][/quote]
I completely agree. This music is just unoriginal loops put together with no effort. If you want to make original music, use FL Studios. Its a lot more complex so it accually feels like your accually making music. Also, he's trying to help you. He doesn't wanna listen to it for a reason. You asked for feedback and thats exactly what your getting. Make ORIGINAL music. If you try and post that to youtube, it could have matched 3rd party content because you didn't create the loops.

The new album 'Stop' has begun! With the first song being "Furry Apocalypse"

No need to feel bad about the previous comment. You're a musician who is learning more and more every day. I started making music at around age 9 in an after-school club using Garageband loops. I made a lot of songs using only loops for one or two years, while slowly trying out virtual instrument plugins. I took a break for a while from music and came back with a mindset of using purely instrument plugins instead of samples. So again, don't be upset or anything, you're well on your way to becoming something great. It's not easy to put together a bunch of loops and make it sound good (trust me, I've heard some atrocities over the past year or so xD).
P.S. I knew I remembered you from somewhere. Greeting from the Monstercat reddit.

Hello other Reddit guy! Small world haha

I think if you want to call yourself an artist, you shouldn't make songs out of pre-made loops.

AND BOOM THE SECOND ALBUM IS COMPLETE WITH THE NEW SONG 'I Feel Funny'

Awesome to hear!

I listened to the new ones, I quite liked them. Bass drop was a little disappointing on the Attack The Ship one. You earned yourself a new follower

Awww, thanks!

Just released two new songs, 'Attack The Ship!' and 'Just Go'. One is much better than the other.

I love it! I could literally feel the bass from my headphones in my ear.

Thanks :3

Yeah, I'm trying to learn how to use FL Studio because I'm running out of beats on Launchpad

Ah ok, Thought it was. I am gonna maybe make some songs on there now and upload.

Alright I just cleaned up my SoundCloud so it's more appeasing to look at. The album name is no longer in the title of the song. Tags have been updated.
