He admits it was inexperience and that he moved on from the practice. The article said:
Attributing this to his inexperience, he abandoned this practice. It is true that several words have been swapped out for synonyms, but sentence structure needs to be changed as well—see this example. I think the same issue can be found in the previous sentence:
Volpe noted in a press release that the EP tracks always existed as instrumentals, unlike the Instrumentals mixtape(original:
a press release notes that "these songs have always existed purely as instrumentals," unlike the tracks). I would like you to take your time and compare the article to the sources you used, and find any other places where you have used the same sentence structure as the source, and identify how you could reword this. A good Wikipedia article will often: combine information from multiple sources into one uniquely structured sentence; reorder information from sources; use completely different wording to convey the same facts. For what it's worth, I think you have misinterpreted the intended meaning of the original Vice source's "he moved on from the practice", where "the practice" is not that he "wasn't really mastering properly" but the preceding context of "free beat tapes" and "ambiance coupled with a subtly emotional core". The important information is about his use of samples and editing multiple tracks together, not his comment about volume: "I started adding distortion to cover up some of the sounds. Maybe there was too much bass in the kick drum and it was distorting so I'd distort the sample to cover it up." — Bilorv ( talk) 22:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
