Kenny, your advices are excellent!

Lokasenna, dont be afraid of the theory! I`m not perfect at it but I learned the basics on the go.
And to be honest I feel it`s more then enough and I really don`t feel I`m missing anything because I don`t know it all.
Personally, I don`t feel there are rules in theory (unless you want to duplicate certain genre or period), I feel that it just gave me a tool to understand how things connect to each other. Just the knowledge on how rhythm (strange signatures, polyrhythms, zappa stuff) and intervals work helped me enormously. It`s all pretty logical once you dive in.
