In my last year of college, I mostly concentrated on performing and learning new skills and trying to get better at them. I was getting used to the college and the new environment. Throughout my first year, I mostly tried to improve on my performing skills as I used to perform most of the time in high school. In college, I mostly enjoyed performing and composing songs. However, at the start, I used to struggle with writing songs but as I started to practice writing songs more and more it became much easier for me, and for most of my songs I improvise while playing and making up the lyrics on the spot. I also used to struggle last year one of the things I used to struggle with was mixing the songs but also recording the. I wasn’t 100% happy with my work as I found it difficult for me to mix the songs but also record in the studio.
During the lockdown, I tried to improve my piano skills and start writing my own songs again. I wrote more than 3 songs, however, there are still improvements I have to make. I used to play the piano almost everyday and work on my songs and the melody and lyrics.
I mostly listen to pop and RnB songs. My style of music hasn’t changed, even when I’m making my songs I try to make them in the genre. However last year I performed many different types of music and this gave me an opportunity to learn something new.
This year I want to mostly concentrate on composing my own music and maybe performing it later this year. I also want to learn more about recording and producing music as this could be very useful for my future if I want to carry on with the music. As a performer, I want to improve the performing skills I want to gain more confidence and improve talking to an audience.
