        £150-£250

        They both look good but I really dont have a clue at all about headphones, are they studio quality and also general use with noise cancellation/isolator?

          You seem to be using the south park method of:

          for music. Especially if you’re not going to be performing the tracks yourself, making money as a lyricist will be a long road. You should find someone to perform your tracks and release them on the internet, like on soundcloud or youtube. Then you’ll have to start making a lot of contacts in the music industry. Usually ghostwriters work in-house for a big record label, and they don’t write “albums,” they help write two or three songs on an album, as artists usually don’t want to source the whole album from the same people. It’s highly unlikely that you’d be able to “make a few albums and then retire.” It’s a much bigger commitment than that, which is why you should do it for the love and not the money. If you go into it with money in mind, you are more easily setting yourself up for failure.

          i have actually done one myself, i do want to recreate the instrumentals i used though, and it does sound pretty good without even auto tuning which is a hell of a shock! haha

            i dont mean to knock you here, but i think you are getting a bit ahead of yourself. you’ve just got this idea in your head about making music and making money from it and now you think you’re gonna bang out a 15 track album put it on youtube and get it copyrighted and make your fortune?

            no offence but i dont think its quite as simple as that

            no of course not man, but its a good point…

            Its more of a goal, than expectation, so if i say to myself im gonna create a 15 song album then itll push me to do it rather than just ‘im going to make songs’ see what i mean?

            and its just thinking ahead and planning, i dont know much about this so i wasnt sure if i wouldve needed to copyright now or in future circumstances

                    fuck cliff richards man….

                    ok so i have actually just wrote a pretty good tune, to just some beat i found on youtube, played it back, i just need to obviously fix it up and that…

                    If i was to put it on youtube (when i make like a good decent 15 tracks) would i need to copyright them somehow does anyone know the deal with this kind of stuff?

                      Well, you’ve really got to know your target market. Which might be something you really don’t like, but if you see a need, then it’s possible that there could be a call for lyric writing skills.

                      Take for example, Christian organisations. They have a big problem right now in that the politicians have told them to get all loved up with lesbians and gays, after thousands of years of persecuting them and / or denying their existence or right to express their sexual choices.

                      So, there’s a big gap in the market, for hymns (religious songs) which can greet and welcome in this new sort of worshipper (because all the old ones left religion a long time ago).

                      One way around it would be to change existing tunes with gay and or lesbian lyrics – so, for instance, “Deep in the Heart of Texas” could be reworded to something like “Deep up your arse for Jesus”.

                      Likewise, “Oh when the Saints/Go Cottaging”.

                      I was thinking about a dubstep remix version of “This is the Image of Our Queen” but I really couldn’t see anyone dancing to it. Possibly starting slack jawed with disbelief but not actually dancing.

                      Quite frankly these examples are terrible but I’m sure you get the concept – you have to spot the gap in a market and deliver the lyrics that are needed.

                      yeah i see what you mean, but i wouldnt write anything to do anything with putting down or insulting any kind of religion, although that is where the money probably would be at, i couldnt do that..

                      But i completely understand what you mean

                        lshak, just to give you an (one) outsider perspective; if its all about making money, but there is also a message, then the message will be diluted as its merely an attachment to the real passion; making money. also (imo) it sounds like you’re underestimating people and/or have a somewhat supremacist standpoint. yes there is madness in the world, but for me in affluent parts of the world that has a lot to do with the misdirection of the rich and few. on an individual level i feel like people, although sometimes misguided, are intelligent,.. and for many you meet, although you may feel that you could be their shining light out of the darkness, there is probably something, or many things they could share with you that you weren’t aware of, if only you’d listen. i’d suggest that ‘ignorant’ people are worth more than hidden messages and deserve something perceptible…

                        this is good man, i dont intend to sound like a supremacist, but thanks for throwing that out there so i dont accidentally come off that way ill keep it in mind, and my music would generally be aimed at religion, motivation, politics, and just general change within the world and economic system…
                        But thanks for the post know_hope, any more things let me know, need some criticism, i know its ahrd until you hear a song but im getting there

                        Obviously i ened to think further in to it, but i wont be aiming it at a specific group, maybe at first to get it out there but then ill expand

                          cheers buddy

                          Its about making money but also to get a message out to people, a message to the ignorant to wake up, subliminally…

                          better ways, in terms of working?
                          In my eyes you can never make money working for someone, id do this, create a few albums until i made a nice healthy amount of money, then open up a business of some sort, and retire in a country elsewhere

                            i guess it depends what type of music you are creating. fl studio may be good if its your first sequencer, or pro tools is expensive but best if your working with live sources

                            selling out already? :hopeless:

                            thank you man, fl studio will be my first 🙂

                            well i dont want to be but i dont think i can sing or rap, it doesnt sound bad though with a tiny bit of auto tune, so ill see how it goes…
                            but i hear you can make a lot simply selling songs

                              ok so i just wrote this now.. I literally write these in like 5 mins

                              Spend all night, gazing up at the stars, wondering when the revolution will reach us, outside, all alone, in the dark, free from worries, yet nothing lasts, been waiting all my life, to live a moment like this, for eternity, if i rose up, and fought for the cause, who would join me in this painful process, it will be long, it will be hard, there will be tear gas rolling through the door, but nothing defeats the idea we have and love in our hearts.

                              if i fought long and hard, who would stand by my side until they were all gone, power to the people will be our song, leaving them defenceless because even their armed guards, will open their eyes and welcome us with open arms, being paid to protect the devils puppets, we have to help them see, what were doing is not just for us, it is for humanity, as a whole to rebuild the world to a better place, how are they so blind to see?

                              They are more poems, but i dont know what to do with a poem so ill turn it in to a rap or song?

                              Im not posting any more until Ive produced one, or none that ive actually worked on

                                i think generally drugs tend to make you more open minded, obviously sometimes it can work the other way and make you think your right and thats it…

                                but i think generally were all pretty open minded to others opinions and further knowledge. Where as if i said something to someone “on the real world” they’d interupt and just be like NO NO NO NO, DONT TELL ME THAT, IT CONFUSES ME! IM UNABLE TO USE THAT MUCH BRAIN POWER TO ACTUALLY THINK!!

                                get me?

                                  i like to think I’m quite philosophical, knowledgeable, wise and a nice guy so yes i would… its hard saying that without sounding like a twat and thinking highly of myself, but i honestly do think that, and have been told it 🙂

                                  and would be able to go through long debates with myself that i know many people get bored and longed out by 😉 haha, i would record our conversations and write a book on it, ‘lshaks discoveries and answers’ lool, would bring about a lot of controversial debates! :p

                                      Ok but in my opinion, if they are not believing in god they are in some sense following the devil, who is leading them astray by thinking there’s no such thing as either but still following ‘satanism’

                                        To be honest I think its used to mock organised religion in a harmless way, because Satanists have so much FAITH in the fact that religion is bollocks that they feel the need to express it!

It’s really hard to have a rational discussion about beliefs if you’re going to do that. They don’t worship Satan. Again, Satan was chosen as a symbol. Do you know what a symbol is? Or do you think Christians who wear crosses around their necks are sadists who love crucifixions?

                                            It’s all misleading, you worship the devil you worship yourself? How can you worship yourself, ok somehow I have had a theory in religion that once you love god you start to love yourself more since the is a bit of him in all of us, which helps you along your path in this life and the life after, but if you do the same in with satan, you may have great rewards here but not the hereafter.

                                            Why would they call it satanism if they don’t believe in satan…! Because its misleading on the devils part, “oh, call yourself under the worship of me, but don’t worry, because I don’t exist” BULLSHIT in my opinion

                                                No. Satan is chosen as the “representative” of Satanism to contrast itself with religions that look towards a higher being. Satan represents our WORLDLY desires. You see I find it slightly intriguing that you criticise many people on the forums for “not knowing about Islam” or “not knowing how to read Arabic” yet you make a huge amount of assumptions about a religion you know nothing about? Satanists are NOT allowed to “rob, cause havoc, murder, cannibalise and other fucked up shit you can think of.” In fact, the Satanic Church would excommunicate you for doing such things! Satanists are technically atheists, with Satan merely being a symbol. Read up:

                                                And perhaps read the Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey.

                                                No I don’t want to read that shit, I’m very open minded just not to worshipping the devil, have no interest at all.

                                                  Now, conspiracy theories. I have mine, but they are best kept to yourself unless you want to sound crazy. Doesn’t matter whether it’s UFOs, the Illuminati or what. I mean, secret messages on a Coca Cola can? Come on dude! That is batshit crazy and if it’s a secret how come it’s known about?

                                                  Also religion: You’ll find that religion is a lot like a penis: It’s fine to have one, it’s great to be proud of it but don’t whip it out in public and don’t try to force it down anyone’s throat!

                                                  Learn the arabic letters, out a coke can in the mirror and read. Or just google it. It’s now about by people who read arabic, please READ ..

                                                  Yes but they are interesting thoughts that out mind produces, and that why our society is so crazy now because you are told not to think, just to repeat and memorise.

                                                  Lol, no its not like a penis, in Anyway SHAPE OR FORM. I don’t see people forcing it down their throat, although I do see religious people giving out FREE books, and giving you the CHOICE, because it is free will and free thinking at the end of be day

                                                    This is already the case for many Religions anyway. How many people have been murdered in the name of Religion? It is pretty sickening tbf.

                                                    The minority, but how many have killed/committed suicide because of having no faith? Or satanism?

                                                      Satanism – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

                                                      Quite a variety of versions, even their own bible, and funny how the British army & navy now recognise and allow it. Seems Satan is a very mis-understood character, not a bad guy at all, just a representation of our base desires and the great liberator, champion for freedom, truth & self determination…………………… hang on a sec, am I reading Satan or Superman

                                                      I wonder is he likes mainstream music lol

                                                      Started from westerners surprise surprise, and if they don’t even believe in the devil why would they call their cult by his name?

                                                      Yes it is their deepest desires, so that means one day when it is fully out their and wide spread it’ll be acceptable for people to rob, cause havoc, murder, cannibalise and other fucked up shit you can think of. When they are taking to court, they will announce their satanism and be told its fine then ‘because their worldwide religion accepts it’.

                                                      Yes it is your desires, but your BAD desires, and these people apart of this cult have no will power against their evil thoughts, and their wrong desires. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled “making people not believe in him” and although you and they call it satanism they don’t actually believe in satan? A bit hypocritical isnt it?
