Hello, it's kinda of a weird situation. I'm studying animation and have an interest in starting to make music/ sounds for it. I know how to play the recorder, a little bit on the guitar and also the piano. However, I have misophonia and can't stand classical music. I struggle with listening to pianos and violins. *(I can listen to a electronic piano sounds, like the weirder ones that sound not classical)
I'd like to learn some music theory, since I want to make music for my films in the future (I'm just starting 2nd year of animation, and I wanna learn some stuff till my 4th year).
I really look up to "bodies of water" and "Bolavlk" by sournoodl. They make the sound themselves and its awesome. I don't like the sound that most student films have and would like to learn how to achieve the specific effect I want.
If you have any recommendations of what to do it'll really help, thank you!
(Basixally: I'm looking for tutorials that will help me learn basic music theory without dealing with classical music cuz I can't listen to it).
[I want to learn it not just for animation but also because I do really like music and have a general interest. ]
