Re: Liking/Disliking your own music



Just want to say thanks to all who have posted on this thread. Your advice 
has been put into practice and is already working for me! I just recorded 
a 23 minute session and for once was actually really enjoying it. 
Creativity seemed to just flow right out of my hands. I can safely say I 
think that was the funnest time I've ever had live looping.
