A few things need to change...(+track from scratch)

Just wanted to let you know that I'll be going back to creating the type of content that I genuinely enjoy. I'm not creating these videos to keep burning myself out but to have fun and show the love that I have for producing music to the world and inspire others along the way. I decided to close down the discord community as a means to take on less responsibility and management so I can focus on what I truly want to do which is simply showcasing you my creative process. I'll be using whatever plugins I feel like using that day instead of limiting myself to only a few. I don't always feel like creating "Ableton Stock - beginner friendly content", sorry. As much as I feel like it helps many of you, it makes the editing and recording process feel like a chore rather than a free expression. This means less deadlines, less livestreams and perhaps even less videos, but at least I know that whenever I do end up posting something, it's something I enjoyed creating. Bless y'all.

I agree 100% with the introduction. Happy to hear you say that.

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks, Nakir

[@marcophez6907]

I've only ever met you on a quick call when you started out, but I've always found you to be the most genuine tutor out there. I appreciate your work even tho I've been too busy to take part in your streams for the past few months, but alas, I'll be back soon. So happy for you here- what you say resonates with me- back to basics, doing what you do best, vibing out on a new groove regardless of plugin! Power/Peace/Healing to you and your family pal! 🎹🎶🎼

[@beltofawetfish]

Forget the devices, I love watching you making music, looking forward to your next streams

[@lateralshiftmusic]

I feel groove is the most important aspect of creating dance music, and it's something that I struggle with the most, I'm very happy to see you focus on this :) mental health is important man, glad to see you acknowledge your burnout and taking action to reduce the stress for you.

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks for this comment!

[@listentoma]

Amazing, amazing video, thank you!!!

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks so much!

[@samcowan1894]

Great honesty! Loads of us will support you in whatever direction you go in. Great lesson for us producers to also stay in touch with why we are doing what we are doing. Gives people courage to follow what feels good and aligned with their true goal- vs getting caught up in all the distractions around it. Thanks again for your guidance ✌️

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks for this comment!

[@sheheryarkhan3441]

Thank you!

Kevin, ich bin zwar nicht in deinem Stil unterwegs. Aber ich finde es großartig, was du so treibst. Das klingt alles ziemlich klar und so. Mach gern weiter so. Ja, wenn man in so einer Situation bist wie du, denkt man darüber nach, was man zukünftig machen soll. In der Situation (schwerkranke Mutter) war ich auch. Allerdings habe ich erst angefangen, mein Treiben zu überdenken, als alles vorbei war und ich mental und körperlich am Ende war. Ich habe seitdem eine Maxime: Hör auf deinen Körper, der meldet sich, wenn es zu viel wird. Niemand *muss* irgendwas im Internet bringen. Vor allem nicht dann nicht, wenn es private Großbaustellen gibt. Und auch dann nicht, wenn man selbst krank ist. Ich kann mich noch an den einen verrotzten Livestream von dir erinnern. Jeder wird es akzeptieren, wenn du eher so dein Ding wie mit diesem Video machen wirst. Und ganz ehrlich: Da steckt auch mehr dahinter.

[@lotustunesacademy]

Super lieb von dir. Vielen Dank für dein Kommentar und deine netten Worte.

[@blaugemusic9228]

Good way 🧘‍♂️🤸‍♂️🙌👊👏👏👏

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks Blauge!

[@richtrelo]

Very cool video. Love your content. ❤

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thank you for your comment!

[@fokuz570]

Mach weiter so. ❤

[@lotustunesacademy]

Jawoll! :)

[@Clic-ac]

Hey, all the best for your mum, been there...

[@mattcolorz]

Maybe I haven’t looked hard enough, but have you done a video where you explain how you structure your tracks? So once you’ve got all the elements lined up and sorted how do you turn that sound/idea into a full track? Would be cool to see you do a walkthrough ;)

[@lotustunesacademy]

Great idea. I've done a few livestreams in which I've shown the arrangement process (it's always different for each track). I'll definitely get back to that :)

[@EdouarddeGanay]

keep on going, you drive inspiration here. If we can help on anythig, just ask

[@lotustunesacademy]

Thanks so much :)

[@arnikator]

richtig so

[@lotustunesacademy]

Dankeschön!

How to make money in music 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@lotustunesacademy]

Funnily enough, don't think about money. Think about making great music / tutorials etc. and success is guaranteed.

[@Myrheii]

your pad is A Major and G Major alternately ... not minor . ( once pitched down, 1 semi-tone ) Your bass doesnt play the 3rd, so it can be major or minor. :) :) :) Flechtwerk, uses the 7th and tonic ... so, no conflict :) :) try A major on ur diva scaling, or avoid the 3rd please ..... :) :) :)

[@lotustunesacademy]

cool, thx for the tip

[@Myrheii]

@@lotustunesacademy Anyway, your workflow is interesting . Sorry, i'm an old musician, starting working in the 80s, and with an integrated tuning and harmony detection :) The 3rd is the main note involved in the major/minor scale . When u are not sure, just test the 3rd and u will get an excellent result . Keep on working, and sharing interesting videos ! :)
