Think you’re ready to release your new music to the world after hearing it played back in the studio? Not so fast…
A couple weeks ago, we asked you to shout out the music producers in your lives, who have taken your projects from good to great, and great to amazing. Before that, we stressed the importance of doing this, to stand out in a world where more music is being released than ever before.
