I figured since I see so many posts from others involving tips, it's time to share my own. These tips are directed at working within a professional studio with a professional engineer.

I stress the importance of social media, as quite a lot of musicians and even businesses don't completely understand the whole social media buzz....

Look, we all understand the economy is currently in shambles, however that does not give you the right to ask for free production because it won't happen 98% of the time unless you offer something very beneficial to someone.

First an announcement: On top of mixing/producing I have become an A&R (Artist and Repertoire) by joining up with Palace Music Group Digital Distribution because they offer excellent services for prices that don't break the bank and all services benefit the artist because they are non-binding and non-exclusive.

I think this a question that is on a lot of minds because everyone wants to be in the spotlight, unfortunately not everyone can be. Every aspiring musician or band can learn all the steps to becoming great by simply watching The Voice. Yes, I said that! Why? Because it's true!
