Stone Update #003 Shipping It Anyway 💿
“Stone Updates” is my ongoing, unfiltered journal as I learn electronic music from absolute scratch. Expect messy experiments, rookie mistakes, tiny wins, and lots of self-deprecating humor as I figure out Ableton one chaotic button press at a time.
My Side Quest in Music, Creativity, and Permission to Be a Rookie Again
Learn More About Adam StoneUpdate:
Just popping in with a new Stone Update. I officially finalized and mixed my UK-inspired Tech House track, and somehow it is now live everywhere. Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, all of it. Is it perfect? Absolutely not. Am I okay with that?
Kind of. It’s expected at this stage.
A few days post-release and, in hindsight, there are things I would do differently. Mix choices. Arrangement tweaks. Small details that now feel obvious. But that’s the point. I’ll fix them on the next track. The next song. The next time I sit down in Ableton and start over.
The goal isn’t perfect songs right now. It’s a better process. If I can improve that, the music will follow. Onward and upward.
