The Sound Of Music: Video Tutorials For Aspiring Artists and Audio Engineers

Recently, while working on a marketing project and driving the clients social media content, I realized that a large portion of the client's following were musicians. After brainstorming a few angles to exploit potential marketing opportunities, I began to think of just how hard it is to successfully penetrate the music industry. This led me to do some online research (where else do we research anymore?) and I found Waves. Waves is an online merchant providing signal processing solutions for professional, broadcast and consumer electronics audio markets.
Their products range from Mixers & Racks to Plugins and Bundles. Pricing vary according to what you are looking to purchase. There is also a page of artist testimonials to give credibility to the quality of the products offered. 
Aside from the points mentioned above, what truly made me appreciate Waves was the page within the their website dedicated to video tutorials. It provides a wealth of information to those who are just starting out or maybe perhaps got off to a bad start and need to find their way. 
Tight on cash? Waves offers a product called Tracks Live that is available for free download or just $99USD if you are interested in a few bells and whistles like a free multi rack ($600USD value), tech support and bug fixes. 
So if you are seeking your start in the music industry, Waves may be a great place for you to begin if you want to take on some of the production as many people opt to create studio's in their own home. 
Often times, one of the greatest deterrents of success is a lack of education. I've decided to blog about Waves because they make a genuine effort to provide the products as well as the education that aspiring musicians need.

The Real Thing *Relationships/Dating*

I love Marvin Gaye. I love how he croons along with Tammi Terrell about having the "Real Thing". If you have followed my blog over the years, you have seen me get separated, divorced, and hit the dating scene. Its been a long road. There was a time that I was dating just to get my feet wet. I just wanted to get into the habit of conversing and entertaining men in a way that I hadn't due to the confines of marriage. I just wanted to be single again. Eventually I came to want more. I wanted to have something...real. I am not a traditional woman. If I didn't have children I would likely never be married and I would be totally fine with living in a separate home from my significant other and connecting when we wanted to connect and maintaining space all other times. However, I have children...and my lifestyle preferences are not a priority. I am more interested in setting an example and foundation for my girls. So here I am, dating with a purpose. I have been on POF,

The Punisher: Relationship Prejudice

When started dating after separation, I did it in phases. The first phase was catch up. I wanted to catch up with every man I had a spark with to explore where it would have went had I not gotten married. Once I realized that these "what if's" were really "don't bother's" I moved on to try to find "the one." After several failed attempts and false starts with "the one" I began making rules. I didn't always know what I liked but I was certain after several failed relationships of what I didnt. However, now that I look back, I realize that plenty of the red flags that made me run were almost always a shared similarity with my ex. If a man said he was interested in anything my ex was interested in, I began to feel uneasy and delve deeper for more "flags". I'll even admit that if a man were from the same country or continent as my ex, I would get turned off. I now know that I was suffering from PTRD (Post Traumatic Re

The Secret Society Of Trump Supporters

I've heard at least a dozen people proclaim their disgust with the success of Donald Trumps Presidential campaign. I'm lying, it's been everywhere. On social media, articles, and conversation you hear plenty people express their disdain at the mere thought of Trump assuming office. Then there are the supporters. There are the people who openly express their support of Trump winning the White House. As time goes on, Trump's position is yet more secured and his supporters are also more secure in showing just how much they love him. It seems now that victory is within their grasp, they can more openly say : I helped make this happen. Those are the cowards. They won't openly defend their candidate but they quietly follow and support him. Those are the people who will say: "well there are some people who support Trump because he says what others won't say." Those people, are talking about themselves. They are far too timid to say what Trump says and he ha
