To define my style of music production would be challenging to express in this small paragraph as it is something I am always trying to explore and develop. Due to my classical background in piano and cello I would say my approach to production could be classified as a little more organic than others so I do take pride in my compositional skills as someone who was formerly interested in film scores and played live in orchestral settings. I tend to be gravitated toward a melodic idea or chordal progression with the general vibe or emotion I wish to express and take it from there regardless of what genre I am trying to replicate. Due to this, I have always tended to neglected the more technical side of production like mixing and mastering so I am looking forward to learning these skills this year. Up until this point I have mostly done collaborative work with friends who professionally produce but these sessions have mostly been directed by me explaining how I would like something to sound. This is partially due to my lack of knowledge to do it myself but at the same time I am genuinely more interested in coming up with the ideas as opposed to doing all of the fine tuning in post production. My production has graduated from my R&B phase and I’m looking to create more hiphop, trap and hyperpop music as I have been DJing this sort of music in the past year or so which has led me to attempting to create remixes of popular songs. For these kinds of genres I am trying to delve deeper into I wish to learn more about sampling as it is definitely a key feature across them.  As for the DAW I am currently using Logic Pro X but I am very keen to get started on Ableton as it it A, a industry standard DAW and B, I have been told by my industry friends and now by the other tutors that the capabilities available on it are (somewhat) endless.
