Thanks! Yeah, even I am still continuously learning new things. In fact, I recently reset my mixing/mastering workflow and started fresh, because of new stuff I learned. I do different genres, but this time it’s gonna be a prog industrial metal instrumental album.

Making music. I’ve started working on a new EP, probably around 5 songs, that I plan to release within 3 months.

Make music. I record and produce my own music in my home studio. I sometimes don’t realize I’ve been in there for hours until I need to pee.

Playing music (jamming or performing) together. Nothing beats getting into a groove with fellow musicians.

I’m using OneRPM at the moment. Other than the sometimes frustrating approval process, they have been ok. It’s free with the 30% cut. I don’t get enough streams to earn a significant amount so it made the most sense to me vs using a paid distributor.

I never did lol. I play by ear to this day. It does make it difficult to play songs on the fly, especially when on stints as a session musician where I have to learn an entire set list of songs quickly. But for my own original work, it hasn’t really hindered me.

And here I am struggling and fighting with my distributor ever time I upload a new instrumental album because they can’t confirm that it’s all original work.

I’m a musician and I listen to rock, prog, jazz fusion, r&b, kpop, EDM, and film scores just to name a few.

Not only do I listen to a wide range of genres, I play and make music with the same range as well. I allows me to easily fit into different bands without issues. I’ve played with prog rock bands, casino show bands, rappers, metal bands, etc.
