Quote:Well Che,That's kinda' what was told ta' me by my good buddy & grand Wizard, the mazz. He told me "ya' gotta' stop writin' like you're producin' an album". So I stopped. I had been so used to writin' that way for so long, that it took me a while to get used to writin' 30 sec & 60 sec pieces. There's alot you gotta' get done quickly in that amount of time, so that was a bit of an adjustment. I-468I'm still failing at this. Miserably. Jes gotta keep on.

Jes gotta keep on.You certainly don't have to write 30/60 pieces if it's not your bag.There's plenty of opportunities for full length instrumentals...

My problem is I keep trying to make them too complicated and too layered. If I keep this up, I'll only produce one tune a year. Wow, lessee, that'd mean in 30 years.......
