Congrats Leanne.
congrats! so anyone thinking of bringing their skills to the north of the island, where so many are talented but not trained? yes we have free online classes, but hands on training and studies are the best…just a thought
when will there be a school for music engineering and management,,,, not taking anything from the students but this is the best forum to bring this up,,, alll that skill don’t worth jack if u can’t manage ur career,,,, if u gonna be a pawn to hungry/greedy managers,,, slick record execs then u only train to be a professional slave,,,, who said u need a $1/2 million studio to have great recordings,,, get the training in music engineering and make ur self independent,,, and get the training in music management for the business side,,,,
Great idea! Why dont you start it and others will follow?
Congrats
