Production Music
Library
Is your production music library deep.
If you are a music producer and you don't have a minimum of 500
beats or songs in your library you are behind.
Most professional music producers have 1,000 beats on deck
at any given time. WHAT? Yup, you
never know when you may have to battle or be in front of a
major record label.
What Def Jam
Records Did To Me
I had a connection that got me through the door
of Def Jam for a music listening session.
Oh, boy this is exciting and I'm ready to show the world
what I have. DISASTER HITS!
I walk through the huge doors for Studio A and the walls are
packed down with others producers. Dammit, what is this?
The first thing the MC says is "If you don't have at least
500 beats in your hand then leave, RIGHT
NOW!
Huh? This was my big chance to rock the ears of Russell
Simmons, LL Cool J, Jay-Z and others and I'm leaving within two
minutes. This Sucks!
Later I Found Out
Why?
Luckily I had a partner that I knew from the
Internet that did make it through the 3rd round.
They told the the survivors as soon as we left that
there are several artist on this record label and they all need
material.
One artist may use up 25 of your hottest
tracks and run through 100 or more before they even
select the first one they like.
Now take that and multiply it by several artist. I only had
116 beats with me that day.
NO WAY could I make it. I wasn't
ready! What a lesson to learn.
What About Music
Production Libraries (Samples)
This is all good. I have a very deep library of
Sample Loops and
Drums.
If you can buyout music samples to enhance your production I
highly recommend it. Apple loops for you Mac users are crazy.
PC heads you should be all over sony acid and their
samples.
Most of the number one Billboard Hits on
the radio have some type of custom samples and drums in the
music production. I have plenty of royalty free and ready to go
samples on deck.
If you are really serious about
getting money from your production you will sell them to
broadcast networks. Huge companies like HGTV, EA Sports
etc..etc all look for production for their shows and
products.
Next time you watch television listen to the music in the
background. Most of it is made up of music
production sample libraries.
