People often go-on about "it's who you know that counts" but a while back I heard it turned around as "it's who knows YOU that counts". That is really valuable because it's no longer about networking, you don't even have to know the people who could change your fortunes, you just have to create things that will get you the right kind of attention.

"Don't wait for opportunities. Create them."
A very powerful message. Thank you!

My husband use to play bass in a band as a hobby. Two years ago he had a mountain bike accident and his right arm never was the same. He was really frustrated and sad. Then he started to watch some videos, while he wasn't able to work...and hallelujah! He discovered the magic wolf of modular Synthesizer 🎹. He has some stuff but he is still learning. I can say, the holly Moog saves his life ☺️.
I'm only a listener of your music, Mr. Jones, my piano skills are really basic but I enjoy watching your videos and supporting your creativity.
Greetings from Germany 😉

I’m at this point where I spent 10 years in the industry as a hired gun, realized I hated it, had some family tragedies, and completely quit all creative endeavors for a good 7 years. Now, I’m trying to learn how to love to create just to express myself, and from that I’m finding my love for the process of creation again after years of a creative desert. I appreciate this video

Once again, I appreciate guys like you and Venus Theory bringing common sense to the creative masses.

I’m 56 and been writing all the songs in my bands that have expanded 30 years …I don’t play covers and I’ve never taken a dime for a show ..don’t care if there is 1 person or a few thousand at my show …I’ve played them both ways … I do it for me and me only if other people like it then great if they don’t I really don’t care ….main thing is have fun doing it …

Hey Jameson, this video is finally what made me get off my ass and start recording for my music channel. I kept making excuses like I have to get better, or I can't record cuz my space is too small, or I will start recording when I buy my camera. Went ahead and put together a set up for now and got my first video recorded. Looking forward to doing more and getting more comfortable with the process

Both my partner and I have lived in LA/Orange County all our lives. One thing besides skill and proof is competition. You may find that person that will help you but you really have to prove yourself to make them comfortable to take you under their wing. LA is not some magical place where success happens just by moving here. It takes a lot of hard work, if not even more so from wherever you come from.

I've stopped sending out Demos to record labels. When I've restarted making music, this happened because of the Pandemic. I had to quit around 23 years ago because of missing money to replace broken gear. After I've restarted, I thought I publish my stuff on SoundCloud. And after some dudes told me that they wanted to sign, I thought they were real. They're not. But I had the feeling to spam labels with my stuff.
But in the end, I am happy with releasing it on SoundCloud. Some of the tracks will be made a release, so they are also thrown over to Spotify. I won't be rich, but that's OK. I began thinking that it's better if I make music especially for myself, not for anyone else. This is my musical voice. And it's fine if there is no contract. It's still my hobby. And this is especially me. I don't have to run after anyone.

I'm 40. I live next door in Arkansas (also not known for being a music hub). Grew up in a musical household but never played an instrument and as a consequence never wrote anything.
Then I discovered midi. And VSTs. And Musescore. And Cakewalk/Garageband. A whole new world has opened up. But, I'm old in body and green in compositional ability.
This video really encouraged me to keep writing. If nothing else, for myself...And to STOP waiting for an assignment. I need to radiate outward.

good message sir. Even as a hobbyist, I find value in that I don't need to wait for a company to put out new gear or beg for an enhancement I think I need. I have what I need to make something. Go make it. And when I decide to do that, I actually appreciate what I have and it shows should I opt to share it with the world.
PS an extra like on the shorts.

I always said… It’s the people that give up that never make it a success for themselves. Sometimes you have to adjust what “Successful” means to you. I tried to get on a label for 8 years and gave up. Being on a label wasn’t really success. I had a kid, became a dad and play music for fun. I think that is actually “success for me”

Mississippi! Alright! Arkansas here.

I'm not sure there are big breaks these days. But there are plenty of little breaks that can earn you a living. For the vast majority of creatives to make a living these days, they have to be entrepreneurs. That means starting a business and finding multiple ways to monetize your creativity. I think too many creative people conflate success with fame, and the riches associated with that. Success is really just being able to make a living by doing what you love to do. If you're craving fame as a form of success, your chances just diminished a thousand fold.

Build it.. and they will come..

Good work is where you find it

Your video popped up in my feed, and I instantly subbed. You're spot-on with this message. For a long time, I was waiting for success to come to me. I felt that I deserved it. But it wasn't until I buckled down and started being proactive, working on my own projects, and reaching out to potential clients that things started falling into place. It took me almost 3 years to build up a fanbase and to start getting gigs coming in, but it's so worth it! Stick with it, friends!

As rick rubin states in his book, always remember the audience comes last. You can never know what will the audience will like and the same goes for the audience
