FMM062 – Guard the factory of your mind

There’s a truth in the saying “You are what you eat”. This also applies to what we surround ourselves with. If we surround ourselves with negative influences, then our energy drops and new limiting beliefs will start to form and any existing ones will be reinforced. But…If we surround ourselves with positive influences, we feel…

FMM061 – Does your music define you?

As music producers we put a lot of personal value in the music that we create, but should we let it define us? Definitely not! This can be a dangerous game because when we do this, we get hurt by our own or someone else’s opinion of our music. This can then lead us to…

FMM059 – Is your music too predictable?

Before sharing or putting out our music, we often ask ourselves these questions: Is my track structured well? Is it too repetitive? Is it too predictable? Is my music good or bad?

Ever say this to yourself? “I’m the person who does this…”“I’m the person who does X everyday…”“I’m an X and that is who I am…” We’ve all said this before. We all have that one identifier that we think makes us who we are, and it is always hard to make any changes due to…

FMM054 – The Blame Game: Giving Others Control Of Your Life

Have you ever heard yourself saying this before? “I’d be really successful if…” “I had more money.” “I had more time.” “I had more support.” We’ve all said it. We’ve all done it: Blamed our circumstances or other people for our lack of success in our music. So this week I wanted to talk about…
