Some of the songs I've made, I'm really disappointed in how I mixed them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I try and make all my songs sound different from each other while doing it in a way that's still me. It's a tricky thing to do.
I don't think I've ever laid out a batch of songs that pick myself apart the way that these do.
I don't ever try to make a song better than my last song. I just try to make it different from my last one.
In the past, my process would start with a sample of another song, and I'd chop it up and use that as the basis of the song that I was making.
When I'm writing a song, I'm just making stuff up as I go along.
I want all of my songs to do well whether I've written them or not.
I've always recorded the same way. I put down as many ideas as I have, then strip them away at the mixdown. It's better to have too much music than not enough.
I'm one of those people that I make a song... then I write another song and then I'm like, 'But this song is so much better than this song,' and then I kind of ditch that song. It's a long process.
I have come up with very creative ideas that really didn't work with the song I was currently composing.
Any songs that I like, I sort of rinse them out.
