I Need Help

Post by RStylez »

So as the title says I need help. I'm starting at producing hardstyle, but I can't do anything.
So if I'm not asking for much and somebody has time, can someone help me via Skype or whatsapp.
I prefer skype due to the fact that we can share the screen.

I'm from Spain, but I don't have problems to understand english (my english i not very good but it isn't weak :))

If you can send me a PM!

Thanks!!!

Start watching some YT tutorials. Get to know how your D.A.W. works, then start to ask questions.
No offence but I highly doubt anyone has the time to teach you from scratch. You shoul have at least
that much motivation that you start already on your own and develop some basic skill.
Music needs Character.
Sometimes standing for what you believe, means standing alone.

Thanks man, I've been watching kick tutorials since june, and I've done only one kick, i watched yhimself tutorial.
maybe the problem is that I don't have money to buy drumazon, I need it for another kick tutorial from yhimself, so I want to do kicks with fruty loops, I use FL.
So... I need recomendations.
I want to know somethings. Like: the punch can be made with snares and crash?
I have more questions and I know that the answers may be in the kick topic.

So those are my problems XD

hardstyle is a pretty hard genre to produce, it is going to take you a lot of time just be patient, like Black Elision said... watch alooot of youtube videos... learn basic music theory that will help as well.. most of all learn your work station

I wouldnt recommend you to dive directly into something like Kick-Making when you dont have that much of knowledge about your D.A.W. See your D.A.W like an instrument - you first wanna learn to play it.

Theres tones of material on the web especially for Fl. Try to fool around and build simple drum loops or short snippets with melodies and drums so you get to know the workflow and while doing so you will encounter things you dont know so you can learn.
Also take a look into some .flp files that come with Fl - they might give you a little insight aswell.
