Finding Your Voice Pt. 2– Creating Your Unique Sound

June 5th, 2023



 



 


When it comes to developing a unique sound in the realm of music, it’s essential to consider both your influences and your individuality. Both factors play a pivotal role in how your sound will be shaped and perceived by your audience.


Influences are the building blocks of your musical foundation. They are the artists, genres, and sounds that inspire you and set your creative instincts in motion. Recognizing and understanding your influences allows you to create a mosaic of sounds that have impacted you, and in turn, craft a sound that is a reflection of your musical journey.


However, it’s crucial to remember that while influences shape your sound, they should not define it. Creating your unique sound isn’t about replicating the sounds of your favorite artists, but rather about incorporating elements from a variety of influences into a sound that is distinctly your own.


One approach to ensure your sound remains original is by deliberately blending different influences. For example, you might blend elements of rock with classical music, or mix elements of jazz with electronica. This sort of creative fusion helps set your music apart.



 


The other integral part of crafting your unique sound is your individuality. This is where authenticity, discussed in the first blog post, comes into play. Your individuality is what you bring to the table that no one else can. It’s your experiences, your perspective, and your voice.


Finally, to maintain originality, it’s important to keep evolving. Musical tastes and styles are not static; they change and grow as you do. Embrace this evolution and allow your sound to mature and change with you.


Creating a unique sound isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. It’s about exploring different musical elements, drawing from a wide range of influences, and ultimately creating a sound that resonates with your personal identity and artistic vision. With dedication and self-awareness, you can create a sound that is authentically and uniquely yours.
