I am in the "produce what I want" group, but right now I don't really aim for any labels, I just produce music for my own fun mainly, thinking that maybe some day I'd go for some label. I just don't set it as a goal for myself at all. I'm happy enough to be able to produce music I can listen to myself, and let my friends listen to it

@Ghost Raver: I totally agree with u... "is like doing music for passion n fun" i did that... but things go further... i mean produce link me to my DJ Career too

If u get what i mean :P

btw respect ur choice

cheers!

Probaby more in the "what I want" feeling right now. Although, after I finish a song, I tend to think if it could land a label. I still send them out. But at the end of the day, what matters most is I made something I enjoy. No one can take that feeling from you.

I make what I feel like. Problem is, I don't have a clue what I make.

It isn't trance, and it ain't progressive, and it ain't techno, or house, or IDM or psy or ???

I'm supposed to have some remixes of some techno artists/songs being released in the near future, plus another label wants three of my songs; mainly on the basis of seeing me play live.

Have tried this recently, and ended up writing my own stuff again.

Generally do this, without the searching for labels thing. Way too much hassle browsing around, listening to tracks, researching etc...

so u like shemales? sorry thats all i can think about every time u post.

If someone seriously answers A they should reconsider why they are producing in the first place.

I really suck at making music

The day you start producing for $ is the day your music loses all its charm.

This is why I decided to go back to school and do something to make money that isn't music, I mean it would be nice to make a living off music, but I don't want to "have to" depend on it to make me a living.

If I do that, then instead of making music that just sounds good to me, I would be making what I thought would sell the best. I decided I didn't want that, so I'm going to work as an electronics engineer and
just make music I want, maybe start a label eventually and see where it goes from there. This way I stay true to myself which is the only way I'll ever really be happy.

I disagree. I think it takes some real big talent to be able to perform no matter what. A true professional is able to set it's goals for a track before starting to write it and do it accordingly.

It is for those that haven't got their skills up to par that will lose that special feeling.

Please not that I'm not talking about myself here hehe. I'm not that good at making music based on goals/given information for a track.

A true professional doesn't produce for money. A sellout does.

Edit:
Just to clarify, obviously one should have some sort of goals as a producer, but producing just to please a certain crowd or producing a certain sound just to sell shouldn't be that goal.
