David Dykstra is a vet in the music business. He shares about how he went from touring full time to creating a more sustainable life with sync, production, engineering and more. He knows so much about the music industry so I recommend you take out a pen and paper (assuming you're not driving or operating a jigsaw) I used to envy people who were touring musicians, but what I didn’t know was not only is it very taxing on the body, but also not very sustainable from a business standpoint. David talks about all of this and drops golden gems left and right for y’all to marvel on and hopefully use on your journey 2:20 David’s journey, nashville, touring, discovering sync, working with Warner Chappel 13:05 Three legged stool 17:26 kindness, respect and their importance in the music business 21:04 David’s super power 22:50 Knowing your superpower 27:50 hacks to get plugins cheap, mastering your craft, collaborating 31:37 David’s site (his socials are there too) https://www.ddcustommusic.com Music business is a people’s business
