About this listen
Fifty episodes! What started as a mission to help music creators better understand the industry has grown into a thriving community, and I couldn't be more grateful for your support along this journey. In this episode, I answer questions sent in from the community of listeners.
This milestone episode tackles the questions you've been asking about the music business - the confusing parts, the frustrating parts, and the parts where terminology seems designed to bewilder newcomers. Ever wondered why your distributor sends you most of your streaming money while PRS collects another portion? Confused about what "music publishing" actually means (hint: it's not uploading your tracks to Spotify)? I break it all down in straightforward terms.
The relationship between AI and music creation emerges as a recurring theme throughout our Q&A session. Rather than taking a doom-and-gloom perspective, I share insights about ethical AI companies that properly compensate vocalists and musicians while exploring how these tools can enhance rather than replace human creativity. From Voice Swap to Scalar 3 and DAACI's Generate, we examine practical applications for today's music makers.
For those of you struggling with the relentless demand for social media content, my advice might surprise you. I share an insight into how my former band built a passionate fanbase, along with practical strategies for finding common ground with potential listeners without falling into the trap of constant promotion.
Whether you're wondering how to approach a booking agent, navigate relationships with producers, or simply understand why finishing projects matters more than starting them, this episode delivers actionable answers to questions from real music creators. No jargon, no gatekeeping - just straightforward guidance from someone who's been there.
Got a question I didn't answer? Reach out - I'm here to help you navigate this industry and turn your passion into a sustainable career. Here's to the next fifty episodes!
