Introduction

[Dainis]

Hi all,

My name is Dainis, and I've spent the last 11 or so years on the road from singer/songwriter to "composer." Got my Master's Degree in Composition after having had a F/T job in IT. For a while, I worked 3 jobs simultaneously while doing that...whew! I moved to Vienna, Austria, with my wfe, and I'm working on my doctorate. My thesis title is "the teaching of music composition."

One is never really "finished," but now that I'm significantly further along, I've written a few eBooks, which are available here: http://www.music-composition-studio.com, where you can also find a bio of me, a description of why I compose music, along with samples and other resources for composers and songwriters.

Right now, I'm working on a new eBook called "Become a Better Songwriter Guaranteed!"

If you all are interested, I'll post when it's ready...

That all for now...glad to have found this forum.

Cheers!

Dainis

Hey Dainis

You get access to the PM system after 10 posts. This restriction was put into place due to spammers joining and PMing members.

I've copied your post contents and deleted it. Hope that's ok.
