Wake-up inputs

Hey yall. Been playing BBCF since around June/July and I've been having a fairly good time with the game. There are a bunch of things that still irk me that I'm trying to not get me down but one thing that I'm consistently confused about is wakeup inputs. No matter what I do, it feels like DPs or supers are allowed only when the gods deem it so. It sucks that there seems to not be many resources to explain these things for newer players.

I've looked on the dustloop, yt, and this reddit for help with it but most people say that it isn't that hard of a timing/buffer is fairly large/etc. and I don't know it makes the struggle feel even harder since there's nothing that can break it down for me it seems.

Any advice is much appreciated.

How to not sound so demo-ish

Yo. I made a post a few weeks back about feeling burnt out and not knowing the direction I should take to keep pushing through slumps and I felt it would be a smart idea to turn to the subreddit for some help.

Most of my music is self produced, mixed, and mastered and because of that when I hit a roadblock in one of those areas, it's pretty hard to know how to get through it.

My main question is: how do I help make my songs sound like songs? I have a few examples I link in this post but I always feel like my songs don't sound like songs. Maybe it's cause of the mixing or mastering but like if I check someone else who uses similar beats, they don't sound so demo-ish as mine do.

I know that not every song is meant to sound the same but whether I'm making something more lyrical or something more melodic, it feels way too amateurish imo.

Any advice will be super appreciated.

Hey, I haven't had a chance to post anything in this sub for a while now but I had a question: what is the best way to stay motivated when you are constantly trying your best with music but it feels like nothing is giving?

It gets pretty tough when you spend so much time recording, producing, mixing, and releasing and you feel like your making leaps and bounds in progress but when others check the music, they aren't as enthused as you'd like them to be. It sometimes even happens when you peep like videos or reactions to other artists and people are having a great time listening to them and whatnot. It just has been super tough.

Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.
