hmmm I think i spend like 3 hours a day tinkering and adding ideas to my bag of tricks, this way when a project comes along I am never short of tricks.

Well, having a very stressful job, organising raves/events, studying management at university part-time and a girlfriend that for every little free minute she has, wants to spend it with you.

Is this your scenario? Well it is mine!! haha

but I still manage to spend 20 hours every week…I employ the most of the time in production and mixing… Need to learn some things on mastering but from my experience it’s better to leave it for someone else…

This website is amazing! i’m learning a lot and applying it to my productions! I would like to see more tutorials on how to improove in arrangement and anticipation in dance tracks because it’s very lacking all over the internet and in my opinion it’s the most important thing in a song.

Hi "Unknown". Soundroll is definitely a talented and popular artist at AudioJungle. If you want to learn more about music production, a good starting point is the article A Beginner's Introduction to Home Recording which summarises everything you need to know, and links to other helpful Audiotuts articles. And stay tuned - you should see more articles for beginners in the near future.

Hi Ian. Because you haven’t commented before. It’s a way of reducing comment spam (and we get a lot!).

Between practicing my own stuff and for gigging, plus working on client stuff in the studio usually at least 7 hours a day.

Two-three hours everynight after work. It could be composing, recording, mixing or mastering. I spend months finishing a song, until every part of the process is done right.

Normally i use 1-2 daily, “fooling” around, creating beats, synths-sounds and stuff like that, but when i get inspired for a song or gets a mixing project, i mostly use all my sparetime on the music.
When i have the time and feel like it, i find my trumpet, and practice a little, but thats not that often, sadly…
