Not sure... Everything still seems shitty

I do both, the simple shit on the piano roll, and then more complicated things as wav

I prefer to make the track fit the vocals, and not the vocals fit the track. When using vocals I want the vocals to be the center of attention, and this is the best way to do it, at least in my opinion.
It's not too hard finding a vocalist if your tracks are good enough. I found a few vocalists who've worked on songs with millions of views but only like 50 followers in soundcloud. I never actually worked with one of them because I rarely finish songs, but the guy was willing to do some vocals for me.

why not try analyzing other songs ? Porter Robinson - Language got the coolest breakdown imo i studied that then suddenly understood how it works. basically the chord progression decides where the melody will go. if the chord prog changes (not just randomly) then it'll be real smooth

This, if you're stuck, the best thing you can do is analyze songs.

I just got som dubs, they work pretty well

Any thoughts on archives? imo a lot of suggestion posts can be archived since one of the admins/mods gave and answer why ________ isn't going to happen.

Maybe discussions after being inactive for X amount of time can be archive as well.

Think it would just make everything look tidier :3

What I did was make a note of all the different elements coming in and out, and then make a bunch of time stamps. Instead of replicating the sounds in the original song, I would put in my own sounds that could take its place while having them go in and out at the same time as the original.
