I consider myself a beat maker but I do have skills with mixing. I don't lease beats and never really liked that model. I focus on making music for sync licensing. It has opened up my skills. I only use to make hip hop/rnb. Now since I get briefs for all types of music I can make Electronic, Pop, Orchestral, Atmospheric etc. It's funny because my Atmospheric music makes me more money overall because the songs usually play longer.
Thanks for comment! Interesting about the Atmospheric music. I don't know much about that. What's the usage?
I’m a producer-songwriter I think because I make custom songs and that has been my main bag. Starting to produce for other artists (and work on my own Lofi artist project). Finding it hard to decide what to focus on since I’m just starting so for me it’s been a time management learning curve. Love this video!! Isn’t talked about enough.
Thanks for watching!
I'm a production studio owner. I just opened a new studio about 4 months ago here in Rio de Janeiro. That presents issues because my ideal client is in the US. I owned a studio in Orlando for some years and recorded and produced for a number of artists there. So, I have engineering, song-writing and am releasing my own music as well in the hip-hop world. Marketing in general and especially internet marketing is my achilles heel, but I will learn it as I go I guess and add that to my knowledgebase.
Good luck with the new venture! There's a video on this channel called "i'm ending music producer marketing" that you should check out if you get a chance. Might shed some light on your new direction. Also, there are some older videos on the channel that talk about doing remote work.Thanks for watching!
@@darklabelmusic Cool. Much appreciated!
Everyone makes “beats”, so I’ve been focusing on cinematic, orchestral, and high level instrumental music. High barrier of entry makes the competition less numerous.
Smart man
@@darklabelmusic in addition all the cues I make in this style I genuinely like. I’m actually finding my sound.
I have been an EDM producer and I got some attention, tracks played on well know radioshows and some decent streams but I almost never made money with it! Then I decided to become producer-songwriter so I can expand my creativity and I started to have some clients. I would recommend every producer to have some producer-songwriter skills so they can get better technically!
Thanks for watching Justin!
What was the difference between producing EDM and then becoming a producer-song writer? What tasks stayed the same and what made the 2 different
@@razzerraw1108 the difference was that in EDM I just had 2 genres I used to produce. Now, I had to get better and learn all the genres possible
THIS CHANNEL IS PRODUCER UNIVERSITY 👍🏾🔊… KEEP THE KNOWLEDGE COMING
Appreciate ya!
i make alot of money in the sync micro sync area making hip hop trap and r&b for video games tv commercials etc..
You deserve so much more views and subs!
Thanks for watching!
As a full-time producer-songwritter-engineer, I completely agree with this video.
My short insight is: the better you really are at doing A LOT of different things, being able to produce different genres, playing different instruments, etc, the closer you’ll be to make it in this business, because basically you’ll be fit to suit more artists than if you just do one thing, and therefore be more valuable.
Hey thanks man. Super subbed
Thanks for that!
In over a decade you're the first person I've found talking about this. People always say "if your focusing on money you'll never make it." Everythings about money. It matters.
Thanks for watching! Yeah it's sort of a tricky statement. I agree... Everything is about money. There's another statement... If you don't care about money then it won't care about you. So yes, on one hand, most of the people I've met who say "I don't care about money" are typically more controlled by money because they have to THINK about it more often on a day to day basis (since they have less of it). On the other hand, what the statement in this video refers to is more around mission and vision. If someone ONLY gets into music because they see it as a way to make money... They usually do not stick around long enough to make money because they very quickly realize that there are much "easier ways" to make money that aren't music. Hope that provides some clarity to anyone reading this.
Great vid!🔥 Keep up the work
Awesome info! I am definitely the producer-songwriter, classically trained drummer but love many genres.
Appreciate it! Best category to be in (in my humble opinion)
@@darklabelmusic Could you land clients through reaching out to artists via Instagram DMs?
@@darklabelmusic I also think it is a little easier to make income from selling custom tracks and unique songs then making money from your own original music (live shows and merch), though you could do that on the side!
@@darklabelmusic Is there a way I could follow and connect with you on Instagram?
Very insightful and inspiring, my good sir. love the vid/edit quality too. killin!
Appreciate ya bud! Tried dropping an old school "whiteboard" video a few weeks ago and it bombed so back to teleprompter Dan :P
@@darklabelmusic work it!
Good stuff Dan, I can confirm that being a multi genre songwriter producer has done me well. By the way the sliding Dan head scale is awesome
Haha - I just learned that my little dinky video editing software can do animations. Dangerous! :P Thanks for watching and dropping a comment - I appreciate it! Glad things are going well in your biz!
tell me a hit this guy has made
what type of producer should i call my self if i make all the things. beat, recording, mixing and mastering etc. ?
Great Analogy:)
Wow thx
Well I dont agree with the edm producer. You can play in clubs and bars very early to get some fans and income. But to get the good income yes, it takes a while. Also many recording engineers say it is really not that fun to record bands, especially when youre starting out and record the unprofessional ones.
As an EDM producer you can also become a ghost producer for other artists but besides good production skills you need connections. In terms of recording engineering I'd personally disagree. I've done some band recordings and they're fun but can be challenging at times and require a lot of work.
How to start best way a beatstars business cause you said it has to do with marketing skills do they put adds out
I’m a producer song writer ✍🏾
