Noire 2
So I started watching youtube videos about how to use this goddamn thing.
I was completely ignorant. I didn’t even know that I was going to need a digital workstation at that time. That was the reason why I wrote about awereness before producing. For you to not do my mistakes. If you haven’t yet, you can reach it out from here.
So I downloaded ableton lite with the code they have sent me with the launchpad. Everything was going okay for that time. But there was a little problem blocking my way.
I had no clue about how to use ableton. There was just numbers and terms that I haven’t seen in my life before. So I dived deeply into the seas of youtube.
I can’t remember how many ‘’how to’’ videos I have watched before actually start producing something. I was completely lost among those videos. But one channel helped me a lot getting through that stage. It was the Beat Academy.
Ill factor is a legendary producer. He gaves the lessons in Beat Academy. His tutorials are top notch when it comes to learning quick and efficient.

With his videos, I finally managed to make my very first track:
It wasn’t much, but it has the value of ‘’first’’ for me. That very step is important for everything that you want to accomplish, midnight riders. After this first step, I gained self-confidence. Started spending hours in front of ableton. Tried everything that it would offer to me. Searched for the things I couldn’t do. Learned producing. And made myself a verified spotify artist. It is maybe not something big for now, but I think it is a big step for just a hobby. Believing yourself is something, but if you don’t act, you will not accomplish.
Fortune favors the bold, midnight riders.
Aal out.
