Hot Tips for Creating Amazing Music Beats at Home...

Hey, Fellow Musicians.



You need hot beats to pull your tunes together. A great set of

music beats will be the backbone to your rhythm section.

They can peak the interest of your listeners and make them

want to keep coming back for more of your music.


Check out some hot tips for creating amazing music beats from

the comfort of your home.


1. Customize the beats so they fit your signature sound.

Whether your signature sound has a rap, funk, rock, or country

feel etc. you want people to know they are hearing your unique

beats when they are listening to your music. Your beats should

really set you apart from others, and grab your audiences

attention.


2. Utilize music beat resources that are available to you.


There are great resources available to help you make your own

beats from the comfort of your home e.g. music beat creation

software, beat making equipment, music forums etc…use them!

There are great tools for sampling beats, building upon your

foundation and creating hot new beats. Listen to cool rhythms

you like on CDs, MP3s, music videos, radio, at gigs etc. as this

is great inspiration and really can help you feel the grooves.


Keep them fresh in your mind, and get a raw sampled recording

of some of the beats (e.g. using a handheld recording device) so

you can remember them later. Then edit the beats to make them

your own.


You can also create your own beats from scratch using good

music production software.

We recommend you check out the music production resource at the

following link because it is easy to use (and has video tutorials),

has a cutting edge music sequencer, and allows you to export your

beats via mp3.

3. Search for music forums online to find a community of
beat makers you can trade ideas with.


Visiting forums is a great way of learning what others are doing to

find and create great beats. You can go online and use a search

engine to search for forums focused on creating music beats.

You may be surprised to find that there are several forums focused

on the specific style of music beats you are in to. They are a very

good place to go to brainstorm ideas and get tips for recording

great beats. You may even be able to take your beats to a new

level by collaborating with other beat makers.


4. Expand your creativity, and ear for music.


When you need ideas for new beats, try to emulate the beats you hear

that sound really tight and catch your attention. Look for the subtleties in

the rhythms that you really like and learn how to recreate them in your own

voice. You can practice to your hearts content right in the comfort of your

home. This can help improve your rhythm and ear for music.

Also, make a practice of experimenting with your rhythm machines to make your

own beats. Once you find your groove you'll be surprised what you can create.


5. Record the beats you create!


Always remember this important note... make sure you record your beats so you

can remember them later!…You can record your beats at home using a handheld

recording device, home recording equipment, or software. Whatever recording option

you choose to use, just make sure you use it...so you can share your hot new grooves

with your fans.
