MUSIC PRODUCERS: Which is better? Selling cheap exclusives?  Selling non exclusive leases? Or Getting music placements? Is it possible to do"all at once"????















 Okay Producers. I am going to be blunt. It comes down to a few questions. Are you creative enough to develop your own TRENDSETTING commercial sound while maintaining that unique ability to be versatile in any genre? Or are you satisfied with sounding like every other producer who uses those same generic,sounds that come with your DAW? How far will you go to be different and find different strategies to make your tracks? Have you discovered the secrets to making hit tracks in every genre? As a producer,you have to understand something......"From the first 5 seconds the tracks are heard into the very first minute of the track determines whether if people will give producers a chance.

Or , if they will turn it off.

People "MUST" be captured, cultivated, and intrigued by the way the producers
design their melodies, snares,drums,sound effects, or whatever they are using to bring notice to the track(s) Used. The minimum time amount per song these days are at least 3 or 4 in a half minutes long. So, that means that this is THEE ONLY amount of time you have to get their attention.

To survive as an artist or producer, you have to nurture the fanbase so people literally feel responsibility to help your career along.This is your job to make them feel an immediate
attachment in whatever genre you are trying to produce in.
 
Once consumers "KNOW" for sure that you are a hot producer ,or writer or both,...then they feel a since of URGENCY to know what other ways will you use you creativity to impress them the next time around. So. Now, that you understand the basic principles of what to do,this should motivate you to get it done.Because guess what, this is the only formula that will allow you to sell cheap non exclusive leases to the normal consumers,at the same time build a great curiousity for those SAME consumers to want to OWN your exclusives. On top of that, it could spark the interest of the big guys who may be interested in licensing your tracks for Video game,film and TV placement. So, you could get all that accomplished WITHOUT lyrics.On the flip side, if you actually paired profound lyrics to those tracks you could initiate a fan base and a following all by yourself.
 
 
The next subject that's just as important is the clarity of the sounds in your music. You ever play a track and the moment the track is played it sounds, clean,crisp,airy,and your able to hear the separation of all the instruments,sounds,drums,synthesizers,and whatever else included in the track? Vs. The music has to be turned "up" a notch in order for you to even get into it Or their seems to be
a trashy background noise interrupting the "feel" of the track? This is why, it is a MUST to use professional grade production equipment whether hardware or software, "OR" have your music mixed and mastered. Go the extra mile and research what softwares are high grade material for mixing and mastering so that everyone of your tracks will have that commercial quality to them to match that great melodic sound.
 

Don’t just sit there and "think" about making music, or try making music when you don’t have a clue. Get help and learn how to produce music correctly, because you will need to advance as quickly as possible and keep high consistent music coming out very often. It's called C.O.N.S.I.S.T.E.N.C.Y 
Go build up a fan base with all of these social networks that are out. Sell your music yourself and be an independent producer and or artist as much as you can to expand a "buzz" about your reputation. 
This will only benefit you in the long run if you take it seriously. Producing music,is something you can learn in your spare time and is something that can be very profitable, for the right person.

 
So, all in all, the moral of this story is, get off of your high horse. Keep your mind open to learning the techniques,and work harder to find that unique sound to make sure you stand out from every other music producer out there. With this kind of frame of mind, you'll be able to initiate your own source of income from the beginning stage of your music production, until you get an actual portfolio. By
the way, for those of you who do not feel like waiting on getting music placements because you are in
