music careers can start from anywhere, i think. i'm not from usa but my older brother is popular ish in japan. he started doing music/covers on a website thats kind of like youtube (niconicodouga) and he actually gained some traction! hes collaborated with professional/popular singers and has gotten a lot of great opportunities. wishing u luck from japan :)
ReplyAh I see! That's awesome! Thank you for the advise, I'll try it out!
ReplyHey I have a ton of advice. Music producer (mostly film & tv).
1) Put yourself out there. Youtube is the best place because it helps to put a face to the voice.
2) Don't pay anyone who promises to make you famous. Seriously. If they think they can make you famous then they'll take a commission AFTER you're famous. But don't pay anyone up front!! Tons of scammers out there.
3) Try to do everything yourself. Seriously you can practically record a professional album on your phone these days. So just start messing around with an app and see where it goes.
Most important...
4) HAVE FUN. If it stops being fun, then quit. For real.
ReplyAh Ok! Thank you for the advise! This'll help me!
ReplyYou can make music with just a musical instrument and a device that has a camera and a microphone. Upload covers or original songs to YouTube or Spotify. There are various song composer apps for your phone and PC. Garageband is only available on Apple devices but it is one software that allows you to make awesome songs. That doesn't mean just having one instrument or even just your voice isn't awesome too!!
