    I learned this the hard way, just by making beats and memorizing chords, this is really helpful and it saves a lot of time, good theory.

I tried watching deadmau5 and Armin van Buuren Masterclass to learn music theory, and I just didn't get it. Thanks for being my inspiration and motivation.

We just learned songs by other people and played them. That's why I quit, I use music to express myself but I can't express anything using other people's music.
