10 truths about making it in music
Foreward.
What do you do when you seek for useful advice or inspiration in something you are passionate about and want to succeed in? One of the most obvious answers (if you are not a member of a suicide club) is probably this - you listen to people who have already "made it" in your craft. And in such a sleazy and poorly documented industry as music business, you better use this advice in full. This was what I thought while thinking on a concept for the first Dotted Music ebook few months back. On the blog, we've got lots of fantastic quotes from successful musicians, and pretty diverse I must say - from Anthrax guitarist to frontman of OK Go, there are very different sayings. So, the idea was born: to collect ten exceptional quotes and build a story around them. Why the story? Well, there is one problem about musicians, specifically when they speak... With the vague nature of most artistic people, their expressions are often pretty generic. To correct this misunderstanding, we took risks to expose the ten chosen quotes of musicians, who indeed have "made it" in the music industry, and create a free ebook worth of 50+ pages. Ben Brown, the Dotted Music writer and author of the inspiring work in front of you, created a truly fascinating story. I encourage you to read it from the beginning to the end, and believe that you can make it really big in music. Just like these ten people. Andrew Apanov Founder Dotted Music Media
