Leading music producers to success while navigating my own path.
Yooo, I'm Akayo, a music producer with 9+ years of experience. I've had the chance to produce music for hundreds of creators, including Valkyrae (4M+ subs), ghost produce tracks that have hit over 3M streams total, grow sample pack businesses to $2K+ per month, and coach 30+ other producers.
I’m here to share what I’ve learned, so you can skip the 9 years of trial and error I went through lol

How to Make Money as a Music Producer (step-by-step)
Переглядів 4 тис.4 місяці тому
There are two types of producers: those who think from analogy (e.g., "People buy my beats"), and those who think from first principles (e.g., "People buy my beats because they want to make better music, which helps them escape their current situation and alleviate the discomfort of not living their dream"). If you grasp this deeper reasoning, you'll destroy the competition. I hope this helped ...

I just want to say that just because you don’t know about compression, it doesn’t mean you’re an idiot. (My good deed for the day.)
But you nailed it bro, this is the best explanation I have had all my life
Learning how to use the tool is not mastering compression, if you don't know what its supposed to sound like then knowing what the controls do isn't helpful. Mastering it takes practice, not 10 minutes.
7:12 shoutout for helping us Ableton folk!
I cannot believe this channel isn't gigantic, I immediately subbed. That last tip was simply gold.
Synthwave is fun to make IMO
THE FINALS type music
dam i love the way you explain it whit the mom comparaison 🤣🤣🤣 btw it is very well explained 😉👍♥
How do you know when to use compression? Is it an ear thing or can you see when compression is needed even when your ears maybe tell you otherwise? Great video by the way!
Thankyou bro
Hey, what monitor do you use?
video about focus... out of focus
Thank you so much! I make alternative rock music and I started producing my own songs without a band now. This was really clear how you explained it, even though it was not my genre at all. <3
BRILLIANT! subscribed!!!
Your analogy for turning down the loud music was perfect.... thank you!
Bro if you do a pack, Im the first on you list man...love it 100%
thank you
25 compression vids in and still can hear the difference when compression is on or off
Your analogy 👏😂 nice one
Use your ears
thank you for your explanation
Limiter for Idiots next? Hoping...
As an idiot. This helps me. Thanks
Sorry, and it must just be a generational thing, I guess, but I found it very off-putting and distracting watching you holding a mobile phone up to talk into it. It looks very ungainly and odd. If you can afford it, a tiny DJI or Rode mike as used by so many UA-camrs and bloggers would work at least as well if not better, and just clips onto your T-shirt. Keep the mike out of the viewer's attention.
Is that the World Of Goo soundtrack I hear in the beginning?
You are awesome! This was definitely the best explanation and analogy. 👍🏾💯
