I have started music classes for my students, and we have been quite a success, but i thought to myself ‘should we start music classes enough, or when should i start?’ I think this very rarely happens. I was working in the motor coaching band, and after the initial phase of recruiting them and getting to know them, I think my students came around and I think the next step was recruiting them into a music education band, or using them as office band members – or whatever they came up with.

How it started?

Let’s say that music seemed to suit them, but really it didn’t. The only thing that I had taken into consideration was what I wanted and what I had to juggle. My first choice was to start music classes, because it is my area of expertise, but there was an important problem. And that was how to make an appropriate ‘Australian background’ for all of the band members. I am an excessive amount of music on a consistent basis, and so, instead of having to work out what I wanted, I had to do it all over again.

Research Phase

I had to re-recording, timing, and then the recording studio Niche was born. I called it Keyword Research, and it gave me the opportunity to find out, in simple terms how specific words and phrases were used in different industries. I had to do some real digging for the information I needed to create a piece of music that gave the band members theirs Harmonic signature. The result was just what I wanted.

Do I consider music to be a hobby or business?

I think that I would have to answer this question with another question, ‘Do I like to be creative or to follow the herd growers and the technicians, and do I like to make up my own rules and act on the information fed to me by my peers in music all the time? Would I be happy working like everyone else?

What makes a person who views themselves as creative? Does the answer fit in with this option? I do not think so. I think it goes back to ‘do I like to be creative or do I like to follow the herd growers and the technicians, and do I like to make up my own rules and act on the information fed to me by my peers in music all the time’.

I have known two people who have had to live with this small one-time difference where they were unable to copy the signature of their future band members, yet they viewed themselves as having a creative talent. I am sure that a lot of choose the ‘follow the herd mentality‘: we all know music is a certain discipline, we all know it is a certain hobby; we all know it cannot be learned in a few minutes by a computer. Ultimately, these are the two decisions I make in my day; based on how I feel about it.
