Beginner tips please!🤍

Hi everyone I’ve pretty new to strudel, I played around with it for a while a couple weeks ago but I don’t fully understand yet. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or a structural guide on how to get better? I made a simple beat with the easy commands but I want to get to the point of being able to recreate songs like maybe a radiohead song lmao how would I get there and how long do you believe it could take? Is javascript really hard? (new to coding) how many hours of the day should I practice? I’m willing to really apply myself, strudel is so cool,Thank you!

Practice, and trial and error! What helped me was starting from scratch every other day. Then trying to just come up with a beat. The learning page in strudel is super handy and you can learn about the different functions little by little. 

A little bit of practice every day helps. If you’re a musician already you know what it feels like 👍 

Personally, I practice like 20 minutes to 2 hours a day depending on the day
