  1. Does it really affect me tho? Maybe not, but I can see how it would be a great movement for up and coming songwriters!
  2. I'm trying to make money with my music, not an easy task!!
  3. Taking a long break from music to gear up and upgrade my sound quality, also to take more production courses. Its gonna be a long road lol

      ok, but don't be a stranger! Best of luck to you! Enjoy the courses. 🙂

      I'll try to log in once in a while, my day job is at its peak activity level right now and has got me working like a dog. Thanks Lisa!

  4. Belated Happy New Year to everyone! Sorry I haven't been active lately, life has been pulling me in different directions: challenging but a good experience. I hope all goes well for you guys in 2020! Will keep in touch ;)

      All the very best for 2020! Happy New Year!

  5. Hey guys and gals! I'm happy to report that I recently got word of one of my hip hop tracks making it onto an ESPN program called Outside The Lines(USA). I can't confirm it on my ASCAP account yet but if it turns out to be true, this will be my very first cable TV placement! 🤞

     

    I'll keep you's posted!

      Yes, it sort of is cool but I'm still waiting for some proof lol Thanks @Peggy!

    3. Sreyashi Mukherjee

      How cool, Ken! I hope you got the proof by now :)

       

  6. I found this cover quite enjoyable, the music and the visuals go pretty well, together. Oh and that falsetto @0:54 was absolute KILLER! Enjoy! -Ken
  7. @Richard Watashi - Ahh. If it were only true, everyone would be smoking it. lol
  8. Great to hear your music/voice again, Achazia. I really love the first minute going into the song, its very inviting and has this "silky-slow-mo" vibe - if that makes any sense(haha). I really love the piano in this song, its gorgeous! Hope to hear more of your work! Ken
  9. If I were an artist, I would definitely subscribe to this! Great idea, @john and Songstuff team! I can't take part in the poll but I think the price is quite thoughtful for the struggling young artist. But maybe you could offer separate prices for students and working adults? If I come across serious independent artists, I will make sure to refer them to this right here. 😎 Ken
  10. I was really impressed with the execution of this pop song. I found out it was J-Lo's idea to incorporate the Brazilian Funk beat into the production, which is quite ingenious I think!
  11. Busy, working with a YouTuber and adding music to short dance scenes. I kind of like doing this type of work, its different and fun!

      Awesome! I look forward to seeing and hearing the results!

    2. ImKeN

      Yeah, I've sent in a few tracks already but they're kinda busy so things are moving real slow. I'll let you know if things work out. :)

    3. ImKeN

      UPDATE:

      They liked most of my tracks so its looking good, but its gonna take a while before things are finally over. They're very busy so what can you do? It is what it is. 🤷‍♂️

  12. Forgive my ignorance but I never really understood what progressive music meant, until this post. Thank you for broadening my horizons a little, I plan on doing some more research into this genre. BTW, I came across this drummer about a year ago, but now I know that she composes progressive pop music! Check her out if you're interested:
  13. OMG, so contagious! I never really heard the entirety of this one before so thanks for the post, Peggy!
  14. 'You're Still The One' The first song I heard from Shania Twain back in 1998, which is like two decades ago! I absolutely love the timbre of her voice, its quite addictive.
  15. Currently working on a track for an independent artist. She specifically asked for a production similar to "Funny When" by Mickey Shiloh(lyrical content not suitable for children, btw). Its quite a challenge to say the least, since I've never produced anything in that sort of style, before. Funny how these unexpected challenges introduce us to a whole new world, broadening the borders of our creativity. So stressful, tho..lol

    1. Peggy

      Cool opportunity to develop. Good luck!!

    2. ImKeN

      Thanks Peggy, will do my very best!

      Update: I'm still waiting for the artist to come up with the vocal idea before I further develop the entire production... But in the mean time, here's a short sample I put together - the vocal hook is a sample from Splice, I just added it for fun.

    Love this song, plus it helps that he can sing really good! You guys working on anything new? Ken
  17. Just uploaded a modern hip hop instrumental track on Soundcloud, pls check it out if you have a couple of minutes! -Ken

  18. I need to get some decent speakers, using headphones is really starting to hurt my ears..😰😪 zzz

  19. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2019!

  20. I use LPX because its the only DAW I really know how to use. If I had to switch to something else, I guess it would be Ableton Live manly because I like to produce EDM tracks. Ken
  21. Great qualities I see in some of my collaborators:

     

    - Fast worker

    - Can handle my blunt criticism and can also speak their mind.

    - Not afraid to try different musical styles

    - Quality recordings(clean audio quality)

     

    Its a pleasant and fun experience to be working with such a talented and professional group of people!
