1. Work Hard- don't skimp, don't be lazy. If there's an idea that you've been wanting to try, do it.
2. Be as original as you can in everything you do.
3. Don't beat yourself up.
Everything else is details. | |

Actually, the "don't be lazy" is a big one, in a number of ways. Even in the idea of taking a shortcut to a sound you want, when you know doing it a certain way will make it sound better. Do it the longer/better way. And.... FINISH.

Rule # 101: Fuck originality of sound. Use presets. Write original tunes. The only people that know your preset patches are snobs. The people that will be paying your bills couldn't care less how you arrived at your sound, it just has to sound good to them. Worry about originality of sound when you reach beyond your middle age, like, 55 years old. 40 years old is young for an electronic musician. If you haven't made it big yet, don't be fucking stupid any longer, use fucking presets!
*That really is one rule.

Rule # 102: If a snob laughs and calls you a failure because you refuse to toil for naught, and you have been successful at toiling for riches using presets, get in your Porsche and calmly drive away knowing that you're fed, clothed, housed, and have premium health care insurance until the day you die.

Rule # 103: If snob runs up behind your Porsche as you're pulling away, yelling that you've misunderstood him, keep on driving, he doesn't matter anyway.
