that's the point @The King ... and just when you thionk in the drug economy nobody works for free for years even for just a single day!
The steal our money

 

also one more thing
volume automation on vocals or instruments.. important to get the midi notes velocity right..
also important to fine tune the pitch of the snare.. sometimes kick and sometimes percussion instruments.. play around with that

 

one step at a time the king.
first i have to have a good likeable song, then i think about the distribution.

thanks Kate! i'm actually used to do volume automation even in the rock used to make
great tips nonetheless

the drug economy is huge, if im not mistaken pablo escobar was one of the richest people in the world
it is really easier to make money with drugs than most professions

 

Ok guys!!

I wanna thank everyone for their input. Some of you were really helpful.

I'm marking @jagctl as the best answer, because it reinforces what some members previously said, and also add a few things to the basket.
Also because i like his answer the best.
Gonna give a try on the Swedish method, it seems fit to me.

Thanks everyone again, and thank you @jagctl too

 

I just want to add one thing: you really don't have to and you can be established in the indie world,and never be in the top 40 and it's fine. If you are genuine, people are going to recognize that. No need to pander to the lowest denominator. Build it and they will come. Just my opinion.

 

Exactly, also on You Tube for example you can see on some videos where people click the most, it's mostly just skipping to the chorus or skipping some parts, have in mind that's the music they are already familiar with and still they can't be bothered.

 

Just one tip: Don't do it! This world has enough pop-music already, actually we have pop music for several worlds like ours.
Do something original, be an artist already!

Some sad stories
https://twostorymelody.com/how-much-money-do-musicians-make/
I took these screens. There are a series of facts for independent musicians that anyone who chooses this path should be aware of.

 

A significant part of that 17 billion dollars is distributed among 1560 people and their supporters and the rest do not take a special share of the music market.

Being popular and producing popular music is the biggest goal in the world of music and the music economy.

 

If you are a musician, you must know how to work with your desired musical instruments. If you are a singer, you should do it well. If you are a music producer, you should aim to work with famous people and powerful people in the music world.

Live music performance is more profitable and investment in terms of time and learning the basics of this work should definitely be one of your priorities. Unfortunately, there is not much education in this part of YouTube, because it is a money making part of music and people working in this field do not produce much education about it.

 

Reality is often a disappointment.
and then we have people like elon musk who just have so much money and again the money are used in the wrong direction.

read this The Crown: What Was Kate Middleton's Job at University? (townandcountrymag.com)

We do know a few of Kate's other jobs. Before university, she worked as a deckhand at the Ocean Village Marina in Southampton. After graduating, she was an accessory buyer for brand Jigsaw, and worked for her mom Carole Middleton's business Party Pieces.

@Zoketula @Synclavier

Thank you guys. But i thought about this for a long time already, and I've made up my mind.
The world just gave me too many reasons to change genres. my friends, my financials, my recent change in taste

 

Yeah, that was probably unsolicited advice on my part. I saw later that you already figured that out for yourself. It's just I see this all the time in the YT/streaming world. Someone comes up and mimics someone else and then they become what Corey Feldman is to Michael Jackson.

 

i had to google that name. didn't know that kid from the goonies had a weird friendship with Michael Jackson.
Haha i see you worry for a friend. but you really shouldn't
I can take care of myself, and if this doesn't work for me i'll eventually move on
just one of those things of life you gotta try, to not keep yourself wondering "what if i did that back then?" or " I should've tried"

 

Let me tell you a hopeful thing. Unfortunately, those 1560 people who earn the most money in the world of music, all of them, without exception, are illiterate in terms of music. They have gained so much false fame and popularity by deceiving listeners for several years.

If you can effectively master your musical instruments and institutionalize the rules of music in a completely intelligent way, you can be above all those people.

Deceiving and lying for years is something that doesn't seem to work in today's world, but the truth is that because of the listeners' lack of knowledge about music, a pop artist can fool a lot of listeners by lying and exaggerating.

Lying about abilities and talents has always been with many artists and producers and will continue to be.

But if you can show your abilities without lying, the listeners will be attracted to you.

 

It goes way beyond that and it's truly bizarre:

"Grandpa Skrillex" is not very self aware and doesn't seem to understand that he is a joke to his audience.

 

wow he is so lamee!!
he still dresses up like Michael Jackson

"musical equivalent of sharknado"
