3 Myths that NEW Producers Believe (But Shouldn't)

[NavieD]

Which of these myths have you guys found yourselves believing?

[briancase]

I would just add one thing: when you feel stuck or your track is finished and you can't figure out what's wrong, leave it. Don't listen to it for at least a week, preferably two weeks or even a month. Then listen and you'll know immediately what changes you can make. Then you'll improve. Work on something else in the mean time.

This vid can be a life changing lesson to some people. I mean the topic he's talking about is applied to most of our lives, including school, business, working out, and whatever. The contents are definitely solid to swallow, but he's telling the truths. Thank you for the enlightenment, Navie.

There's this layer between a beginner and their DAW. They don't actually hear what they are doing. This was such a big problem for me, I actually thought I had something wrong in my render settings and FL was the one messing stuff up. I broke down that layer a lot by listening back to the renders, sending in links for critiques, and just practicing in general. Active listening while you are making your beat is definitely learned. Your brain can make you hear something different from what you made.

I’ve sold beats, recorded songs in my bedroom and worked with several local artists and I still find myself watching videos and learning new things so I can improve because I know that palace and nick mira have years of experience and knowledge over myself

I'm a self-learner producer who doesn't even know how to play the piano. Still, making beats and never giving up. Come a long way and now I have 7k monthly listeners on Spotify.

The work ethic is important, talking about forcing yourself to at least be in the DAW to practice, only to find a sample you get excited about really resonated with me!

I want more of these types of videos

[wwjnz]

Thanks, I needed this. Truth is, my beats are Hella trash, but every day I am trying to get better. I'll get there.

I've had a big issue with self-motivation and "feeling my shit, " thank you for posting this video. Definitely inspired me to work hard at this shit everyday whether or not im inspired or in the right environment mentally. Gotta keep pushing and chasing my limits to close that "gap." I know I'm great at what I do, my confidence is what sets me back. Thanks for the boost Navie!!

You know it's a good video when Navie is making a video on the couch.

[AstrixMusic]

I agree you have to look at your music and get feedback. It is easy to get caught up in a loop for one. Self growth is definitely dependent on the person's overall goal.

[DrKage]

bro I felt everything you say, going through all this now..

[SclimBeats]

Navie you are totally right, I agree with you 100% I just make my YT channel to share my “work files” to find people like me, share experiences and feedback. and I know it’s a long journey on front of me. I start make music a year ago, and i felt in love. I try improved my skills and push my self even I don’t have mood and energy after 8 or 10h in my job. But always I try to find time sit and try create sometimes I have a lot of fun from the joy and sometimes is “pain” but end of the day I feel I do something to be better at. Sorry for my grammar but I hope you get me. And all of the people reading this comment, don’t think you are the smartest or the greatest in making music because always out there someone is “better” then you just be happy that you can learn and improve everyday wish y’all the best ✌🏻

Making music is a dream since childhood, I'm inspired EVERYTIME I get my hands on the gear. I spent so much time dreaming about having gear for music production (parents could not afford to buy me gear) that to this day I get excited just looking at a DAW or my hardware. Just thought I'd share my story. Awesome advise as usual! I absolutely love your content. Old school vinyl DJ who has a long way to go to become a real producer checking in!

The war of art is a great book. Read it last year at the beginning of the pandemic and changed my life

[PrinceWa]

Love your channel man. So many new producers are looking for tips, tricks & techniques, but fail to absorb the philosophy of an artist. It is as important as all the rest.

[infergnojinn]

Navie i really appreciate this real talk. Im battling myself lately. I drag myself into it until it works.

[pholometsikgomo]

Haha, My beats come out so sloppy im starting to think thers a special secret producers' hack of installing fL studio. Im a few days here, but damn im loving your tutorials. Thanx a lot G.

[Marchan]

I usually don't listen to youtube beatmakers because for me the feeling is just not there with the way they teach things. Here is the one I needed, you're just teaching the chill way and your advices are actually usefull. You earned a subscribe, keep up the good work Navie !

[maadibeats]
