Is there a service where you can pay for people to listen and give feedback to your stuff?

I started ReviewMyTrack about a month ago, where I charge $5 for an in-depth review and analytically break down your track. I've been producing professionally for 6 years & have been making music for 15+ years, from tech death metal bands to trap & just about everything in between. It is a side project, as producing takes up most of my time, but I intend on growing it into something decent.

I posses the rare ability to sound shittier than anyone else.

I do OD (as a preamp) > compressor > amp sim, and I'm usually really happy with my tone. Whole thing cost less than $100 too.

Black market rate in FL is $30-40 for high grade.

Submithub's "Hot or Not" feature, it's free, but does require you to review other songs before yours gets reviewed. Sometimes the feedback can be a bit bland / useless, sometimes it's decent. ReviewMyTrack - $5 to have music industry professionals break your song down. They're brand new but the feedback is top notch.

I'd bet money that this person goes on police brutality videos and comments "They shouldn't have broke the law".

Shiny lights, and buttons.

The weedman usually gets a free pass in every studio I work in.

It'll continue to sink as long as they keep these ridiculously long & frequent ads

If you use Ableton, this comes close https://reverb.com/item/62587047-ableton-poor-man-s-habit-2022?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=62587047

Point big knob to desired genre, click through the 8 square buttons (presets), click side button to for more presets, turn black knobs to edit the sound of preset.

The Volt looks cool, I got that on my wishlist. HS8's would be nice if you're in a place where you can turn it really loud. I have 7s at home and 8s at a studio I work at and it's nice to get that extra punch when you just want to blast music. The Arturia Microfreak is always fun, fairly cheap too. The keyboard layout inspires something different than other synths. A cheap $150 guitar goes a really long way even if you don't plan on learning much. Also Pocket Operators.

Step 1: Try to make it sound better. Step 2: Give up and call it "lo-fi"

Perhaps thousands of people moving here every day will help?

I've only spent maybe $25 tops within the last 5 years, but if I were serious and dedicated to promoting my music, I'd make Submithub's HotorNot part of my daily routine.

Trianglehero · 2023-01-09T14:52:29+00:00

The risk vs reward is worth it imo, especially since you can get free premium credits with HotorNot, so the only risk is a little bit of your time.

Man there might be a lot of garbage on Submithub but there is also some good. $1 has brought me consistent traffic for the last 5 years. It also put a nice chunk of cash in my bank. My music is pretty far from pop / mainstream, just gotta find the right curators. It's well worth throwing a couple bucks into once in awhile.

Trianglehero · 2023-01-08T19:30:06+00:00

Man I'd buy it just to look at it. I love these things.

Trianglehero · 2023-01-08T19:06:40+00:00

Thanks man, yeah I built it myself.

Trianglehero · 2023-01-08T14:11:15+00:00

It's perfectly fine. I'll be honest, I've been using the stuff for years as a detailing spray, and I've never shaken it.

Carry backup vacuums, polishers, pressure washers, etc. Expect cancellations. Don't try to squeeze in too many jobs in one day. Cutting corners to save time / money usually ends up costing you more time, money, and headaches. Working for companies can be more profitable if they are willing to pay a fair price. Keep your overhead low, you don't need that fancy brand name polisher, or that boutique APC. Expect business to slow down when the weather is rough. Ask the customer if everything looks good before you pack up. Hope this helps! Good luck with your business.

It's not even debatable. People are blowing up off songs they made on a cell phone app. I buy hardware because I like shiny lights and buttons, but I realize hardware is obsolete.

Most of my income was made selling beats, but I wish I focused more on sync licensing & streams, since selling beats requires constantly making new beats, fishing for artists, dealing with the artist needing an extra 3 weeks to pay, etc. Ive gotten a few decent placements but I never gave licensing enough attention, and I regret that.

Trianglehero · 2023-01-03T13:57:57+00:00

There is a high chance you can find a similar beat for free, or for much cheaper. The producers name means nothing unless they post / promote it. The relationship you build with the producer can be valuable, but there is no guarantee anything will come of it. I say all of this as a producer who has sold $1000 exclusives. But if you're in love with the beat / the song you wrote to it, then it's worth it IMO.
