Tutorial: Q&A (Part 1)
🕑 Added 2022-05-26 16:01:04 +0000 UTCWe recently asked you to submit your questions! We received so many great questions that we decided to split the video into two parts.
Next month's video will focus on answering your production questions with mini tutorials!
00:46 - What tips would you give Musicians / Producers who have extremely varied musical interests and are struggling to find their "own sound"?
05:10 - What kind of computer rigs are you both using to run such massive projects?
08:38 - How do you learn new techniques?
12:40 - I would like to know about your history! How you two met, how you started producing and where you learned music production
13:47 - Are you somehow trained in music (theory) or did you just learn everything yourselves?
17:30 - Do you have any unreleased music that is something completely different from what you normally do (like an orchestral composition, jazz etc) and if so, are we ever gonna hear it?
19:28 - What is your workflow in terms of who does what? E.g. does one come up with melodies and the other is more focused on sound design or do you both kinda do everything simultaneously?
20:40 - How do you guys manage the geographic separation since Jim moved to Canada?
23:08 - What do you do when you're not making music? Any personal hobbies?
30:25 - Are you planning any new tours? Will you be coming back to the USA any time soon?
31:08 - When do you work on consolidating a song? Do you have any tips on finishing tracks/staying inspired with current projects?
41:24 - I would like to know an instrument (a synth, a piano, whatever 😇) and an album which inspired you and shaped your sound during your musical journey.
44:53 - Are you going to feature other artists on your label?
46:59 - Are you planning on making more tutorials on the same subjects you’ve already covered? I would LOVE more videos on drums, heavy bass and dreamy synths.
47:37 - How do you approach goal setting and keeping yourself accountable to those goals?
54:30 - After all the years of production, are you guys fully satisfied with the music you have made or do you still feel like it could be better?

The points you both made in the second half of the video about self-criticism and completing tracks is a really valuable conversation for producers. Great content guys <3
