Hey since im a new member i thought id get to know some of you guys by asking you how you got into music production! well let me start off with my story!
Im currently 17 about to be 18 April 5! well 5 1/2 years ago i got very ill and started missing alot of school until i got to 10th grade where i couldnt handle being in school everyday with alot of pain i just wasnt me! anymore so i had to do drop out and attend a charter school later on i was given a piano and i learned to play some beautiful music that music later became depressing as i started to get depressed 
later on i discovered Fl studio and started making beats even on my Ps2! and then a friend introduced me to dance music, DnB, Dubstep, and i fell in love! and now im here to discover ways to produce music, i already have the song layed out in my head! (hope that doesnt sound crazy!) but i have no clue how to do it! and thats why im here! How about you guys!?
Welcome to the forum brother!
I got into music at a young age. I was classically trained on the piano and quit later in life. I played for about 10 years before I hung them up. I also played alto sax and baritone sax for 6 and 3 years. Then I got into the rave scene. Started DJing, and produced music on and off for about 10 years. I just recently got serious about it a little over a year ago. Thats my story and Im sticking to it!
started listening to rave tapes in 91, at 16 i bought some belt drive decks then some technics, went to raves and then clubs and as i started earning more money i started playing with some gear. first thing i bought production wise was a roland mc 303,then was on and off with production for a few years, then got more serious then had a baby so not as much time for it now. :hehe:
Welcome to SA.
For me i’ve always been into music, my mum’s a classicaly trained concert pianist and full time piano teacher and my father is a guitarist, both write and compose their own songs.
I used to play the Piano but gave it up for partying in my late teens, I got into DJing and have been doing that for most my living life, I’d always wanted to produce but pretty much failed at understanding how to work the programs, i always needed someone just to show me the basics then the rest i could work out myself. Then finally 2 years ago I found Sonic Academy and all that all that changed.
Better late than never right?
Anyways i guess the rest you could say is history.
I went to parties in the 90s and i took lots of X . and that is why Produce Music .lol.
just kidding ! i never was musically trained or talented . but i decided to Produced i 2003 because a friend wanted to record my set and then sample the heck out of my records ( bastard lol) . i end up just being curius how his studio worked and then i decided to produce .since then i released some track with my friend wich inspired me to get in more Music Production. and release my own music . i wish i would have learned some instruments do . i dont play any
