A great night tonight - the first (we think) face-to-face Audio Artist Rise meetup! Myself, @Dave Graham and @Giuseppe Vasapolli (who was in the UK on a trip from Milan!) met in London this evening for pizza 😁 It was great to meet eachother and discuss our music careers and goals, and of course how the AAR program has benefitted all of us in such huge ways! Hopefully we can do more of these meetups in the future, maybe even one in Germany sometime to meet with @Alex Pfeffer himself! It is just another way that this amazing community is so great. And for anyone who is based in London, or is ever visiting, myself, Dave and @Ryan Trebilcock are all close by - let us know and let’s get a drink!

Hey all! Please delete if not allowed, but I just wondered if I could get your thoughts on a fantasy trailer track I'm working on for a library. I got some feedback and have made some changes, but I'd love to hear what you think and whether there is anything else you'd add? The feedback I had on the original was... "The start of the track needs to indicate the genre much faster. Something that conveys a fantastical or mythical quality to quickly signal to the listener what type of film/TV show this is. It needs to be more engaging as well. It goes on a bit too long without much variation. At :56 the action and intensity needs to pick up more to drive the track forward. Add more tension here and start to establish a more compelling rhythm with the percussion here. In the third act, expand upon that driving percussion to create more synchronized moments with the melodies and drums. I love the dramatic weight here, but it just needs to sound more action oriented." I've tried to respond to each bit of feedback they gave in this version... but appreciate any thoughts this awesome community may have as I look to share a new version tomorrow evening. Thanks as always for the support! https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/qniwlaigq15nrbyyci3h4/Trials-of-Destiny_V2_Matt-McDonnell_115bpm.aif?rlkey=up990jgm2bzx3am45lr32o8lw&st=rlcbvzaz&dl=0

Hey sound magicians, want to make this quick. If you are interested in the Audio Artist Rise Program, let me know. I am available all day (except 6-7pm CET) for you guys. I still get so many questions about what's inside, how it's working and so on. If you are interested to get your career onto the next level, let me know, send me your phone number via private message and I will call you. I can also show you around a bit on what's inside :) Also, here is a latest testimonial.Thank you so much @Matt McDonnell! PS: If you are an Audio Artist Rise Member, you can safely ignore this post 😅 PPS: On a sidenote, please keep in mind that the course Mockup Craft (included in AAR) goes up to 69 USD today.

Hey guys, first of all, I have been on the road for the last couple of days so there was bit of radio silence from my end and I am sorry about that. However, I am back in the studio ready to rumble. 🚀 Now, THANK YOU!! 🥳🥳🥳 We made it to 1000 members! In fact we are already on the way to hit 1100 :) This all wouldn't have been possible without you guys, so thank you so much! I am still thinking about the best way on how to celebrate this, so if you have any ideas let me know 👇 Now, what's the plan for the next weeks? I am currently in the concept of, finally, releasing a new course that will dedicated to everything regarding creating mockups. Basic stuff such as dynamics, CC commands, music theory, most instrument categories (orchestral, choirs, rock, drums, hybrid stuff, synths, basic audio recording), DAW settings and tips, how to finish tracks, my personal approach, how to work efficient, etc. I am aiming towards building my biggest course module so far to get you generally going with everything around creating solid mockups and tracks. ... and yes, if you are an Audio Artist Rise Member, you will get access to it for free! For everyone else interested in this course only, I would again introduce the course with an early access offer. Meaning, the course will be built throughout the next weeks, but in return you get in for just a fraction of the price and be locked in, no matter the final price. So, thanks so much again for all your support and let me know what you think?
