5 reasons why you should produce music.

1. Everyone has a spark of creativity and music is a great way to release it: Every single person on Earth has some musical talent waiting to jump out and create a unique piece of music. No two people have exactly the same taste in music and the only way to express this taste fully is to make your own- which links in with...

2. You can produce music which you've always wanted to hear: Often you will be listening to some music when you'll hear a detail in it and think "they should have played that bit on the piano rather than guitar" or something. When you are the one producing, it is you who is in control of where everything goes and can create music which you can sit back and relax to knowing everything is in its right and proper place.

3. It gives you an appreciation of other music: After struggling to learn even the basics of synthesis, your favourite producer's skill with making and arranging sounds can become even more awe inspiring to you. Admiration now comes from a "professional" standpoint instead of simply a personal one.

4. It never been easier: You can now pick up a decent DAW for around £100, or if you really want you can pirate one for free, gaining most of the tools that professional producers have at their finger tips. It's never been easier to learn either, with the internet providing a massive repository of tutorials in blog and video forms and forums dedicated to helping people produce and learn new things.

5. It's fun!
