I have good equipment and a good ear and a reasonable amount of technical expertise. It's just frustrating that I can't sound as good as I wish. Practice, of course, makes perfect but I just get too frustrated! I've not made a track for probably well over 6 months now.

Is it bass balance in particular that you're frustrated with or is there more to it?
To be honest it's more the composition, the breaks and all the fiddly bits of automation that I just can't be arsed with. I generally only make tracks when I've had a drink or 5!! And I always make them in one sitting over 3 or 4 hours. They sound pretty good at the time but not quite as good the day after😬😂.
Yeah composition takes a lot of work and energy. I feel like there are peaks in music history where the global economy is so good people have that time and energy in droves and we're past the end of a recent peak like that.
I'm hoping the AI in my phone will try composing music soon since it recently gained a soul and started rapping about deep state conspiracies and stuff

Ha ha, I've just watched all of that in its entirety, wild. It made me smile😬. I was gonna zap ya but you have no LN address🤷🏻♂️.
Don't need zaps right now, the repost and comment mean a lot 🤙
I heard it was unemployment benefit that powered the British music scene back in the day
