  • Songstuff Writer and Artist Development Challenges

    By john

    Independent writers and artists face several large disadvantages when they are compared to signed, mainstream writers and artists.  Disadvantages that add up to making it a competition that indies can’t win. Hell they can’t even compete.   Lack of budget and poor contacts are fairly obvious disadvantages. Lack of experience and a lack of knowledge restricts songwriters and artists alike. Lack of an overall strategy, and a limited set of incomplete tactics, makes for a critical problem

A Silent Night | It's been a rough time here in India

TriggerWarning: Reality, death, illness     While having the privilege of a roof and the fortune of being healthy, it's been very painful to watch the horror unfolding in my country due to the second wave of COVID-19. There are no beds in hospitals let alone the necessary oxygen or medical drugs needed to treat the patients. There's no place in crematoriums to burn/bury the loved ones with dignity. There's accute shortage of vaccines to swiftly put a damper on the situation. And

Live-streaming and Multi-streaming

I’ve been looking into live streaming as a way to get my music in front of an audience, where that connection between the writer/performer and audience can be made. While basic streaming to one endpoint/broadcast destination is free, broadcasting to multiple locations begins to get pretty expensive. It seems to be relatively new, as a practice, charging for multiple broadcast destinations. Essentially, most platforms I have investigated, give access to one destination per platform.

At Last

Yay!   A working studio. All connected together. Flashy lights, things that go beep and everything!   A brief tidy up required and I should be good to go. I can’t wait.   Some experimenting will come fist. Maybe a track or two will drop out of the process, maybe nothing.

New Studio Gear

I just took delivery of a bunch of gear to revitalise my studio. It’s going to take a bit or rework in the studio, and means some old gear being sold, but that’s ok. Might as well get some cash back for gear I no longer use.   The only issue becomes when I want to recreate an old track. If I sell the gear I won’t be able to recreate them entirely.... but keeping the stems and draft mixes does mean I can rework them, and I am satisfied with that!   There are two new keyboards:

Primavera's non-socially distanced, Rapid Test event produces no COVID infections

Now this is interesting for all the gigging musicians, actors and other entertainers out there. A test event that used rapid testing for COVID-19 as a way to keep people safe when attending an event. It is perhaps not a full solution but a useful step forward towards more normality for the music scene. https://mixmag.net/read/primavera-sound-test-gig-concert-show-party-news
