Can you make money Producing Music?

just wondering about it . Nowadays is hard to Make Money Producing EDM.

even do Producers who release Music in Big labels still dont make Money .

it is not like the 90s where u could make Money only Releasing EPs in Vinyl.

I noticed that i make more Money Djing than Producing . and Releasing my Music in Labels sometimes help me more on Getting Dj Gigs and Money rather than Producing and sitting at home . wich is cool i think , but i want to Produce only to make money but

everyone that is working on the Industry advised me that is better to start Working on Remixes from top 40s Artists to get more Exposure out there , even do Big Producer like David Guetta needed to step in to the Top 40s to be recognized as a producer.



I think Djs like David Guetta are awesome in Remixing ****ty Top 40s but i doubt i cant do that . i love too much the EDM to start selling my Soul to the ****ty Music Industry that is all about Money and not for the Love of the Music . Grrr

+1 on of the guys that was teaching me done soundtracks for GTR series, etc

he drives a new Porshe :slight_smile:



Sound design also seems to be a good option, for sample cds, etc



I think guetta has commercial side but also makes more underground music, much like E. Prydz, Pryda, Criez D

so would you say its best to concentrate on getting music out onto the radio or networking with companies that use music in their product, ie video games and advertizers?

U could alway start a web page teaching people how to make music… lol

anyway you can get your music/sounds  out there really !:slight_smile:

with games unless your an established artist with a track that everyone knows they tend to bang a non disclosure agreement on you so those sounds/tracks are theirs by right !:slight_smile:

I think if you are going down the road of looking to get paid- have a finger in many pies Lads… One leads onto the other in the end.



Besides - People / Places / Conversations / Work (no matter how small or insignificant… ), gets you experience… and thats what you need to obtain to get to the next stage.



If you can - Do it all.

Have a rich mummy or daddy who are in the buisness also helps
