yeye "good enough" is always floating around in my head.

i have a folder on my computer desktop that contains all my "finished" tracks.. its labeled
"finished-abandoned". i guess my outlook is that nothing is ever truly finished... i've always got the opportunity to come back to it with new knowledge or techniques.. and maybe try and improve something when i've got the motivation to do so..

ive never had anything officially released yet though, but even if i had, the moment it got released wouldn't have to mean i couldn't go back to it possibly improve it, and then have a unique version to give out to peeps, or keep for myself..

When you upload it to SoundCloud.

in my opinion there really is no way to know when your song is done. My best advice is the study music similar to your style or genre of your track. And really study all the elements involved. You will be surprised at what elements producers put in there track just barely audible by studying the song then listening to the song.

I think You have the best answer Think. Knowing what elements you want to put into the track and what you want to achieve beforehand can determine how 'complete' the track feels when you are done with it. Of course sometimes you just want to sit down and bang something out, but setting yourself a global rule could also help steer you in the right direction.

I just thought it would be interested to see what responses there would be because I think that this is probably one of the main things people struggle with.
