I don’t understand how people go to the studio without having things written tbh. I’m glad it works for them to flow or whatever but I put a lot of time into writing my songs with specific sounds and melodies, tempos, and lyrics that tell a very specific story.

And then I rehearse those songs until I nail them down to the exact sound I want to repeat every time I play the song for the next 10 years in my live sets haha 😂

I only go to a studio to finalize a project from the finished product in my head to actually existing with the engineer bridging the gap with the technology I don’t know how to use effectively.

That makes sense, I’ve never had the resources to have my own studio so anytime I’ve done studio work it’s on my dime paying for a service or taking from someone I care about’s time so I always come prepared.

It’s just wild to me to conceptualize being able to finalize a song for a recording without testing it on a live audience first with how my brain works I struggle to finalize and choose a direction so workshopping it live lets me solidify what the song is meant to sound like for my process. 

I love how different people can thrive where the same process can be hard for another that spectrum of creativity is so awesome to observe

i get both approaches.
i grew up in the studio so i long saw it as a place where the entire process happens from conceptualization, production, writing, etc. 
nowadays i’ve been spending more time in other people’s studios so it makes more sense for me to come prepared since i don’t have 24/7 access to the spaces
