I'm feeling rather "guilty" -- Lately I've been using almost like 95% or more of my free time to my music so that I'm almost left twith no time at all to listen to others' music ...
As a musician, is this "normal"?
what percentage of your free time do you dedicate to music

what percentage of your free time do you dedicate to your music making, compared to the percentage that you dedicate to listen to others music?

I'd say at least 95.8%
I do like to play a video game or watch a movie every now and then, but mostly it's music that consumes my time
And it has been like that for a loooooong time. There were times when I used to go out more, spend some time with friends and so on. I guess I made less music in that time but I usually always dedicated my "alone time" to music/sound design.
There was one year were I didn't make any music at all, it was a very bad decision
I'm usually even eating with Cubase in front of me
Cheers

It depends on the things I have to do and changes constantly, but it's always not enough to do all the things I wanted to do...

Probably too much, to be honest...
Well let me put it this way:
If I am feeling inspired than it's all I want to do. I will forego sleep, food, work, whatever to complete my music.
If I am not feeling that inspired, then typically I can balance music well along side everything else - if I am even doing music at the time. Sometimes I stop altogether.
