How big is the impact of music on your life? To me, music is literally the essence of life, and many will agree. I use to think "Wow. This guy is fantastic! Wouldn't it be awesome if I can make beats like him?" every time I was listening to my favorite artist. Do you ever have the same feeling before?
The fact is, beat making is fun and really satisfying but a lot of people fear to make their own beats.
Everybody thought that it's difficult to make beats. They thought only talented people can do that, and that it needs expensive software or studio equipment to make good beats. Are you one of them? If you are thinking that way, then you have been misled.
With the advance of technology, it's possible that a total newbie can make quality beats without leaving his room. It's an art that can be easily learned. Here are 3 simple steps you can follow and start making your dream to make your own beats come true.
The first thing that you will need to do is to select the music style you want. What interest you? Do you rap? Or do you prefer hip hop, techno or west coast? You might be interested in more than one style but just start with one first. You can move on to the next one later or could probably mix them up to make even more unique beats. Nothing is impossible in beat making and there's no restriction too. You can mix and edit anyway you like, and it's still awesome sick beats if it sounds good.
Next, you choose an artist whom you can mimic. Again, I know you are a fan for more than one artist but let's start with one of your favorites first. And he or she doesn't need to be the best in that particular music style that you have chosen. It's fine as long as you like him / her.
Finally, spend time listening to the artist and get used to their style. It will take some time on this process. Don't rush. What you are doing now is to get the feel of the style and pick on beats and tempo in the background. Then you can start making your own beats. Don't hesitate to add new elements that you feel right into your beats. Listen and tweak where necessary and repeat listening and tweaking until the beats feel right.
