Make your own song

I am an avid fan of today’s latest music trend in pop (2007-2008). There are great artist today delivering great music such as Kelly Clarkson, Fergie, Colbie Caillat, and Norah Jones.

Norah Jones Live:

Kelly Clarkson Live:

I can say they are great for this year music trend especially for female pop music artist. So if you are a female singer/songwriter make sure your music fits the current trend.

What about the bands?? In the early 2000, super great bands like Matchbox 20, Green day, Vertical Horizon and Goo Goo dolls sound still share a great sound and influence in the market.

Matchbox 20:

I really love those music, in fact I am at their age and you can expect me to like them also. How about the old trend? Beatles music? Led Zep music? Still not fade but a derivative of their sound can create a trend. Like what Guns n Roses and Def Leppard became after influencing Deep purple and 70’s rock.

We all love music, but being a songwriter needs to stick the trend to be marketable. It is maybe hard if it wont fit your style. But very important if you want to promote your music today.

Consider these following situations:

1. Say you write a song.
2. And want to record the song by working with a producer….

This is the first stage of your problem, because the recording producer is the overall in-charge of the recording process and quality of the album. For sure, recording producer can make a hit but he has to make it marketable too so that it can be played in radio.

Your songs cannot really impressed modern producers.

3. You may produce on your own but still you target market is very limited. Some writers are producers also and they can record on their own. When you sell your CD on CD baby you really have to hit the target market very specific to your songs or else there is no market or sale.

In the gigs, you are limited to the clubs that will play to that type of niche.

4. Love music and be your self. Business makes music confusing. It is because it is an art. If you really love that, and you do not care for money and it still made you happy, stick to it. You are more luckier than those signed artists being forced to do what they wont like.
