You're probably relatively new to music producing, here are some tips:

Learn at least a little bit about music theory. Obviously you know something, but your music could be so much better if the notes were more cohesive. Some basic scales help out a ton

Sound selection is also important - You want to find sounds that compliment each other well. I don't know what program you are using, but it shouldn't be hard to search for instruments in any app. The best way to learn this is probably with time, so just don't rush anything

I'm going to be brutally honest here, the song is maybe a 4/10, but you have so much potential! Keep learning and if you put enough effort into it and you will improve a lot. Also sorry if my tips aren't super clear, I don't have enough energy to write cohesivly right now lol

I think it's really good you have FL now! I heavily recommend learning a few basic keyboard shortcuts (especially ctrl+B, ie quick duplicate. Saves so much time) A long term tip for learning is to watch tutorials for everything. There's a ton of them for genres, just look up "[genre] tutorial fl studio" or whatever and you'll get high quality walkthroughs.

Another tip that helped me a lot with music theory is to remix a lot of songs you like. You'll subconciously study how the melody and chords are made and that will help you make your own.

Objectively, the song itself is pretty average, but for a 2nd ever song in FL, it's really good. I know you already have experience with FL mobile, but most people's first song is a questionable drum beat lol

Keep learning and good luck with FLS!

Thanks so much man! Bro YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW ANNOYING IT IS TO JUST CTRL C CTRL V EVERY NOTE I WANT REPEATED TOT!

But as for the tutorial advice, listen, I’m not here to make something generic, and watching tutorials on how to make a genre, is gonna give me a generic piece of crap that goes against my music morality. I’m here to make music people will recognize, something people will remember. I’m gonna grab genres by their neck, and I’m gonna say “WE DO SHIT MY WAY AROUND HERE!”. Am I gonna watch tutorials on how certain functions work, yes, I am. but how genres work?… you think genres have a “certain” way of doing them, sure there’s tips, but most of the work should be from your creativity. If you’re gonna make techno in a generic way, then what are you even doing? Why even produce in the first place? The people come here to hear Creeperforce, they did not come here to listen to TommyMakesMusicTutorials XD.

I actually remastered an old song I made in 2024, known as Aurora with my new FLS. To the majority it’s better than the original, which I was aiming for. I still have a lot to learn, new VST’s to try in various ways, different things to learn. I’m inspired by @Waterflame, so I try my best to replicate his style whilst having my own additions to it, different samples, transitions, traditions, etc. even got EDIROL Orchestra (yes that old ass VST from the 90s XD), it sounds really amazing and I’m definitely using it more often lol.

I actually appreciate your words on how my song is for my first time, @Taintedlogic did say I was apparently a “fast learner”. A lot of help came from @Dijek as well :3

Thanks for the advice man, much appreciated:D

(Bro imagine making a response bigger then the original message… couldn’t be me 💀)

Chapther 1-3 were so goofy and non-serious and then the final Chapther 3 bossfight is just like "oh ok, here's (spoiler) for you"

Anyway nice remix lol
