Oh my ... what to tell the world ... I try to produce my music as professionally as I can until it speaks to me. And when it finally speaks to me, I hope it speaks to others as well.
Music is lifeblood. If it's right, it grabs me in some weird sort of way, when it has something interesting: Good lyrics, melodies, odd meters and arrangements ...
Find a broader audience that enjoys what I do.
Get rid of fear. Especially fear of each other. Make all people curious to explore each other ...
"Message in a bottle" sung by Sting solo with just his guitar in Wembley stadium at Live Aid.
Too many: Sting, Peter Gabriel, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, Coldplay, David Bowie, ...
Observing people and their behaviours.
That's a tough one. Is there *one* message you're supposed to send? I don't think so. Every project I do is different and has a different meaning.
Pure joy.
Not many people are really interested in music anymore. Everything needs to be an event, a happening, a party. Radio stations and promotors need to take risks again and step away from the industrialized productions that all sound the same and use the same formulas. Of course - in the end - it's all a money issue.
Just found it. First impression: Looks organized and follows a very interesting concept.
Not getting music out to the right target audience.
I support my local scene by producing to regular shows. An open stage event in a good Munich theatre (isemuc.de) and a monthly competition where participants can be awarded to record 1 day in a professional studio once a year (musoc.de).
Uniqueness in styling, be as crazy as possible. The music itself seems to be secondary. ;-)
