My three best tips for writing library tracks that editors choose, get placements, and earn royalties.
💰 How I Make Money Writing Music in 2021 youtu.be/bQS6RPFXb3Y
I earn a full time living from production music and have had placements in thousands of TV episodes, including for hit shows like American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, and The Bachelor.
After the tips I do a walkthrough of the Logic session for one of my recent tracks that has been doing well lately so you can hear and see how it's made.
