Many artists believe they can’t start making music with what they know right now, so they over-prepare.
They end up spending hundreds of hours watching tutorials, outlining tips, and diving deep into music theory. Most of that information falls right back out of their head and never makes it into their toolbox.
Don’t get caught in the information trap. As a rule, spend 80% of your time making music and no more than 20% learning new techniques.
