Click "Read More" if you'd like to learn about how Lightning Jam was created. Sometime around 2014-2015-ish, I tried to start making music. It wasn't very good at the time but I'd decided that my "label" was going to be called Lightning Jam. I even made a facebook page for it. After a little, I gave up trying to learn music making and deleted my facebook page cuz I felt it was hard and I wasn't able to create what I wanted to create. In 2017, I took a Intro to Electronic Music class that revitalized my interest in music making. At the time, I'd started creating the very early stages of my plotbuilding for H@くK, (my ongoing personal project) and decided that I wanted to make fully animated trailers for my future webcomic and that I wanted to make my own music for the trailers. While the Intro to Electronic Music class taught me how to use a DAW, it didnt teach me much else. So I focused more on my art and put the music making idea for the time being. As I plotbuilt my story more and started to seriously visualize how my trailers would look, I was once again, thinking about making my own music and teeter-tottered between the thought of learning to make my own music or just using music from the youtube audio library for my trailers and ended up deciding to use my own music. ​ So around June of 2022, I tried my hand at making music again, learning by watching many youtube videos. Then.. I made a breakthrough and was able to create beats that sounded "listen-able" and I got excited and I practiced making a beat a day every day for about 6 months. I also bought the "Better Beatmaker" course, which then drastically improved the way I made music and I was able to make full songs.
