Amateur and pro can be pretty broad definition wise. But I don't think you'll be making much money making music if you've never considered any of the things he's mentioned here.
Quantization is definitley an option that you can be succesful with. However, if you can make a beat completely unquantized as well, then it only makes sense to me that you would be a better musician and have more opportunities because of it. |
you can make money doing none of the following in music described, if theres a audience and demand for it for the music you put out. Its all about taste. tons of producers on here are doing exactly what he stated and making zero off their music and tons are doing nothing he said and making money. Its all opinion theres no rule to music and I find every production Insane Clown Posse makes utter garbage but they are making tons more money then 99.9% of people on this forum, because they have a fanbase who likes what they do its all opinion. There is absolutely no formula to art. Painters have splashed paint on a canvas and called it abstract which I wouldn't pay 1 dollar for but somebody sees the art and pays 1 million dollars for it. ITS ART, there is NO RULES. Look at timbalind when he first came out. He had a unorthodoxed beat structure. He set himself apart from everyone else, but it worked for him. NOBDDY could copy his music. ITS art. Professionalism comes from success however you get it and no matter how you acheive it.
