Ive posted a few songs and they haven't been doing so great... Anyone got a few tips for an amatuer (or however you spell that)?
1) Amateur
2) 3-5 is a good score. Don't get upset by it.
2b) People 0 bomb to piss people off or get their tracks higher. Most of the time, I ignore scores. In the AP (Audio Portal), they don't account for much.
3) Have a look at the tracks scoring best of the week. They are played when you access the AP. See what YOU think are good about them.
4) Make a collaboration. 2 heads (or more) are better than 1.
5) Use various techniques. Make a list of the things you've included and yet to include such as:
*Instrument/s
*Dynamics
*Key changes (where applicable)
*Harmonies
*Mood and Tonality
*Tempo changes (where applicable)
Hope this helps.
