2 years.. make sure you never stop though..A nikka been fukking with fruity loops for about a month now, I just listened to all my shyt and realized how bad my beats suck
I just been watching mad youtube tutorials tho, got no idea what else to do to get better tho, and I'm not sure I wanna buy equipment if I'm not gonna progress anytime soon

I got some stuff that's good for that little 4 bar loop or whatever, but to make a whole track IDK how to put it together, like the patterns and stuff, it confuses me
is there a way to break down the actual putting the beat together by each instrument? IDK why im asking this hear, just seeking help brehs
