Music & Marketing: URBANIZED!

I've been asked about this topic quite a few times, so I decided to post a tutorial to help out my fellow producers. This tutorial from www.winksound.com shows you how to use Reason in Protools with Rewire. This is great if you ever wanted to incorporate the sounds from Reason with live instrumentation recorded in Protools, and/or any other music software you may use for production. Check it out!

Six questions you should ask every artist before you start producing any music

1. What are your influences and what music styles do you listen to ?
2. Who are your favorite artists?(now...back then..)
3. How do you see yourself as being an artist?
4. How do you want to be seen by the public ( your music listeners..fans etc.) ?
5. What kind of music career do you wanna have in the future (your dreams plans etc.) ?
6. Do you have any special musical talents...do you play guitar, keys etc. ?

Only if you get some honest answers and can see through an artist if he's serious/professional enough or not you should proceed with making music...


In the past I've been loosing much time and energy by not asking all of those questions. There were singers/songwriters who took their work not seriously enough, didn't know their influences or didn't bring the passion I needed for a project.
