Learn the Business of Music
As artists, producers, and managers, we are so consumed with finding the right track, writing the hottest song, and finding the next big mega star that we overlook the importance of learning the business of music. There are still bogus contracts being signed and people still are being taken advantage of because we want that instant fame and we will sign anything sight unseen. It's time that we step our knowledge game up...learn the business of music. Read books, read blogs, or anything that will expand your knowledge and open your eyes. Attend music conferences where panelists come in and discuss the music business. Purchase music related books such as "All You Need to Know about the Music Business" by Donald S. Passman. If you have the means, consult an attorney to get the low down on music contracts. Personally, I have purchased books that contain some basic music contracts that people who aren't legal eagles can understand. With that said, I am posting a link to a performance agreement(contract) that someone may find useful..for Free of course. Enjoy!!

Why songs sound similar
I still consider myself new at beat making and I am absorbing everything possible to get better. I read books, I scour the internet, and most of all I listen to alot of music of different varieties. I am always saying that certain songs sound alike and I just put two and two together. It's the chords. I want to begin using more chords in my compositions but at first I felt as if learning chords would be a hugely challenging task until I saw this video. They guy is playing minor chords and points out that alot of songs use the same chords. Now the light bulb is coming on over my head...I can learn one chord progression at a time and make several songs before I move on to learning the next chord. Might not mean much to seasoned producers but for those just starting out, learning some minor chords might give them a boost of confidence in their production skills.
