Lmao if your music is so boring that people want to meditate to it, you're as much of a "musician" as the guy who writes elevator music

you already larped this yesterday and you showed zero proof, I bet you have no fucking idea what is an A major chord

I'm a 27 year old bedroom musician neet

thanks for listening.

Send your stuff out to as many places as you can, spend money on advertising if you can. Make professional looking press kits with everything people might need if they decide to run your stuff. Most importantly, be unique.

Thank you user

awesome man, when I sold my first song on bandcamp for $1 I felt so realized, because someone actually liked my music and sent me a message about how it spoke to them. You actually made me remember that i need to keep recording and maybe someday it will reach more people, godspeed man

Never stop, user. Things will only go up for you, thanks for your supoprt.

Wholesome. You reminded me to stop being a bitch and upload my t-shirt design on Merch by Amazon already. Good luck, user.

Thanks user I’ll listen to it shortly and let you know what I think

You give us hope

any advice? ive been making beats on and off for awhile but its shit

classical is the best, do you know attic abasement? his first albums were great, some nice songs and is just an old nylon string guitar, he gave me the inspiration to write my own music
