Hello all,
I’ve listened to EDM, specifically house and tech house pretty much my whole life. It wasn’t until a recent psychedelic experience that I decided to take the plunge and start creating music.
It was a beautiful moment. I was at a festival called Desert Hearts, and the music was flowing and the love was glowing. Shit was wild. Life changing to say the least. I found my favorite artist that day, Sunshine Jones. He took me through a journey of self expressive love and healing through sound. I don’t exactly know what was going on behind the scenes, but there were wires and boxes everywhere. No laptop was present or any turn tables. Just raw hardware. I’ll attach a picture at the end.
Forever changed from that moment, I returned home with a mission. To somehow, someway, create music and share it with the world in hopes of spreading the love and joy I felt that day with people who need it. The message was so simple, yet so profound and life changing.
I started my information absorption of music production 2 weeks ago, and have become so baffled with questions and over information stimulation. Where to start?
I do know one thing, mostly Dawless is the way to go! I like the idea of not relying on a computer, and actually interacting with the pieces of hardware around me.
I come to you lovely souls with a tough question. Many of you probably had the same question when you got started. I have 0 musical experience, and I want to start my journey into making edm music. Is their any particular piece of equipment that would be the better option to purchase first for someone with 0 experience?
It’s a vast world out there for someone like me brand new to the block. I did some searching and found some posts from 2015, but figured since new equipment has come out, there might be different opinions on where to start.
Much love, any input would be vastly treasured!
Just an inspiration below, Sunshine Jones. Gotta give him full credit for putting the love and desire in my soul to spread love and music.
