Why Make Music… Episode 20: Mistakes Will Happen

In this episode of Why Make Music…, host ThinkTimm opens with an apology about the episode's original intent. Initially planned as a narrated walkthrough of crafting a beat in Logic Pro using bass, piano, horns, electric piano, guitar, and drums, technical difficulties forced a change of plans. Instead, ThinkTimm delivers an updated, more informative version of Episode 20.

ThinkTimm takes a moment to acknowledge a growing audience in India, discovered through his Instagram analytics. With video views climbing from 250,000 to nearly 800,000 within two weeks, he expresses gratitude without setting expectations, urging listeners to like, follow, and subscribe to support his content.

The discussion shifts to sync licensing and his prolific music output. With six projects containing 26 tracks each slated for release by January 31, 2025, ThinkTimm reflects on his total of 156 songs in under six months—an output he believes might rival a Guinness World Record. He shares his belief that while his music may not yet be widely appreciated, its value will be recognized in time.

ThinkTimm also addresses the potential ban of TikTok in the U.S., contemplating its impact on creators and businesses relying on the platform. He notes that while technology has its downsides, it’s integral to modern communication and growth.

Finally, ThinkTimm dives into his experiment with AI, using tools like ChatGPT to create children's songs. With minimal involvement beyond providing prompts, he generated two complete songs in just ten minutes. While unsure how to feel about this advancement, he acknowledges AI’s potential beyond recreational uses, emphasizing the importance of embracing its possibilities.

Join ThinkTimm for this candid episode where he reflects on growth, gratitude, and the ever-evolving intersection of music and technology.
