About TapOnBeat
What?
Welcome to my music blog! Here, I dive into three primary topics: pop, hip-hop, and beat-making. Within these topics, I explore a diverse range of subjects within each genre. This can range from in-depth song analysis articles to personal journals which summarize my adventures as a growing beat-maker. Addressing the current lack of genres, I believe that many contemporary songs, including those of R&B and ballad styles, can often be categorized under the pop genre due to their modern song structure and lyrics. While my focus currently lies within pop and hip-hop, I have plans to expand further in the future, adding genres such as EDM. Within the beat-making topic, I invite you to join me on my journey as I learn, experiment, and push the boundaries of our craft. Your feedback and suggestions are invaluable to me, so please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section. I welcome any form of critique as I strive to create an inclusive and enriching space for music lovers.
Why?
My primary aim in launching this blog is to enhance my music-making skills by deeply analyzing existing songs. I believe that studying the work of people that you look up to serves as a powerful source of inspiration for aspiring musicians like myself, offering valuable insights and techniques to refine our craft. Furthermore, I hope to be able to share my personal journey and insights with fellow musicians who may find themselves in similar circumstances. By documenting my experiences, challenges, and triumphs, I aim to provide support and guidance to those who may be seeking fresh perspectives while also journalizing my own story. Lastly, I recognize the potential for this platform to entertain and engage even seasoned musicians. Whether it’s through relatable experiences or insights into the learning process, I hope to offer an enjoyable reading experience that resonates with a diverse audience. While these are my initial aspirations, I’m committed to evolving and expanding this blog over time, continuously striving to provide valuable content and foster a great community of music lovers.
Who?
Who am I? Well, to you, I might just seem like another guy on the internet. And truthfully, I’m just that—a regular guy without any fancy credentials or accolades to boast about. But I believe that’s what makes my journey so intriguing. Despite lacking a list of achievements, I believe my journey as an aspiring and growing musician adds a unique flavor to this blog. To give you a bit more insight, I ventured into beat-making about a year ago, although with several breaks along the way. My passion for music isn’t newfound as I’ve been a music lover for as long as I can remember. Expanding on my background, I’m currently facing the challenges of being a first-year college student, and have been struggling to maintain various different coursework and extracurriculars as any student does, all the while striving to carve out time for my musical pursuits. It’s this very struggle that inspired the creation of this blog—a platform where I can document my journey, learn, gain more insight, and hopefully, connect with others on a similar path. In conclusion, I invite you to explore my blog and join me on this adventure of self-discovery and creative exploration.
Best, Joseph
