What motivates you to keep making beats?

I @V.J. Retro wish I could say I had #1 in my personal reality.

I relate to #2, I’m inching along with #3 and about #4 (as I’m single also)

What's up? My name is Charles and I started making music in 2008 with a team of talented musicians, but we all grew up and stopped making music. I worked with music production programs like Acid Pro and FL Studios and also have Roland MV8000 to make beats. Now, I have been unemployed for a few months, so I bought an MPC Live II, learned STEMS software and came back with a vengeance. Music is my Zen, and it's the reason I don't lose my mind in my time off. I feel that my skills have increased and now I am looking to compare music with other musicians and learn more about the business. I like the IllMusik format, and I plan to participate in a few beat challenges and would love any input on my beats. The last beat I entered was "Blues inspired", and I sampled BB King for the Hip Hop/ Blues crossover. Thanks for having me in the group! All my friends are musicians, we are a different breed for sure.View attachment 6990

That's what I call priorities and problem solving.

FL Studios

That one pluralisation made it sound like a major Florida based recording studio

It keeps me from having a mental breakdown.

For me it's like therapie... a place and time where i can let my creative mind let go and can have "nightshifts" (you know what i mean)
in the last year i was pretty busy with work. i missed a lot of ideas and inspiration. work or family. there was no time left.
so that i'm not going ballistic, i need music or ameican football... and now i had surgerie and can't even walk. a great uppertunity to join the ILL and get back on track. the whole concept is great and i enjoy every time when i visit this site.

Work I can go back, at a later date and appreciate or question.

Nothing no more, since @thedreampolice 's AI thread.

Simply the love for the music and the culture, and mental health.
