Cool MB Musician Insecurities.

What is it about your own music that you are the most insecure about?

I want to know so I can exploit it.

For me it's nothing, I'm perfect.

Nah, but for real for me it's Mixing and Mastering even though my M/M is far better than most people on here, (cue the winy tantrum about how they do it that way on purpose) I'm still insecure about it because it's not to the level of perfect where I want it.

Also my voice. A lot of times I'm insecure about my voice. When I nail it I ****ing nail it hard and deep and I make the track orgasm but there are tons of times where my own voice makes my cringe. Maybe it's a self awareness I'll never get over. I think a big problem is slurring words with my mumble mouth. Sometimes I sound like a bumbling retard when I talk, just depends on my mood. The more confident I am the less like a bumbling retard I sound.

So I shared mine, share yours.

Edit: Does this belong here or in the music sharing writing area?

Also my mixing. Apart from that, generally perfect.

Insecurities are for pussies.... and I'm a pussy. My vocals are a huge insecurity when it comes to my music.

What about them? I thought your vocals were good on I song I heard, it's just that they were turned down really really low.

For me I know practicing over and over really helps. Maybe it's just a thing where we just hate hearing our own voices.

I just can't stand my voice. I've literally been told my whole life that I can't sing and will never be able too by everyone I've ever held close. This site is the first time I've ever been told my vocals sound good.

I suck at mixing.

My instrumental technique is rudimentary to non-existent, which is why I often use a lot of loops, effects and splicing

I never heard you try to sing.
