Why I Quit Music Composition

Fuck you, Arnold Schoenberg.  Your music sounds like ass, and your pretentious use of dissonance has given hundreds of shitty composers an excuse to continue making shitty music.

Anyways, here are reasons I am switching majors away from Music Composition.

1.  I hate the other composers and their music, except for Giselle Eastman.  She's cool.

2.  I hate Finale and music scoring in general.

3.  I hate being instructed.  I'd rather learn to make music by recording it myself, and learning through trial and error (the only way I really learn).  There's a good reason none of my favorite pop songwriters ever had training.

4.  It was sucking the passion out of me.  My instruction was Monday morning.  I was making music Sunday night.

5.  I've been getting into music journalism.  You know why?  Because you can criticize.  

Art, according to pretentious pieces of shit, is perfect because it is what the artist intended, so if you don't like it, then there's obviously something wrong with you.

Screw art.  I like rock and roll.

This of course does not mean I will stop making music, which you can listen to here.  I'll continue making music, but I'll be making it for me and for you, and not for Alejandro, my instructor.
