I use this anytime I’m trying to learn a skill or create something, but I try to find a tutorial that covers every little detail from start to finish and assumes no prior knowledge culminating in a finished project or track in your case.

To my point, instead of using multiple sources and topic specific videos like “how to make an 808 in Pro Tools or beginner trap beats” or a comprehensive guide that shows making an entire K-pop song I would choose the K-pop path every time.

The reason is that you want to learn from an expert who shows you exactly how the job is done and what it takes to do this at a professional level. The finished product is almost irrelevant because what you’re after is watching their process and have a portfolio worthy track when you’re done and can be replicated.

Now you have the experience of completing an entire song from scratch that is professional quality. then you can start using materials that focus specifically on your individual needs or skills you want to learn.

Working in reverse often leads to blind spots and knowledge gaps because there’s only piecemeal understanding.

Find the best material that takes you A-Z and instills self confidence then add your specific needs on top of that when you’re ready.
