I always like the tune after I first finish it, otherwise I wouldn't consider it finished right? Then like 2 weeks later i'm like lol that is terrible.

I think when you listen back to tunes you've made after a while you begin to notice problems with it more than just after you've finished, like the bass is too quiet or the drums are too repetitive etc...

I sometimes get into the habit of re-listening to my own tunes over and over to try to catch a vibe off them. It's bad man, drives you down a dead end of creativity.

Lol I used to have no regard for structure in my songs, I'd have like 17 bar intros and like 73 bar sections or whatever

Bare in mind these weren't revolutionary, forward thinking tunes. They were literally sub standard 140 tunes with fucked up structures :lol:

no doubt

but the standard is always made by some randomly gifted kid who dont know

so when you've learned the schooly ways - then you need to run back and find a kid and copy his bits
