These are not rules set in stone, that thee must abide by. Because lets face it... that you would be rather counter productive and would stifle rather than encourage creativity. We're not about puttin up cardboard box fences here.
But what we would like is to keep the music at its optimum.
So think of these as after jam tick boxes.
- Realism
- because, sure, you could create flawless music in your bedroom and use all the latest software to quantize your drum beats and pitch match your vocals. But surely then you're taking away from the feeling, the rawness and the passion of the music. Flaws are a part of music, both playing and producing. - Relativity
- we're not talking a running social commentary here, but keep it relative. this helps give music focus, and people can connect with that. Helps to pin the music down, so its not just an airy creation floating around in musical space - Limitation
- keep it limited, to a certain amount of physical copies. dont become a whore with your material. its not about sales. its your creation. and why shouldn't it be a one of a kind. then and only then can it truly be called a master-piece. music is after all an artform.
Keep your integrity. Because lets face it, you never know when you'll need it! x
