    7 Top Tools For

    Massive Music Momentum


    Your “Sketchbook”
    You’ve got a load of unfinished music you’re not sure what to do with lurking on various “graveyard” hard drives.
    Create a folder called “Sketchbook” and put it all there. You are NOT deleting any of it, it is VALUABLE raw
    material. You’re removing it from your mental CPU and creating a fresh clean slate to start from...

    Your Musical Swipe File


    Create a playlist called “Swipe File”. Go through your music library and include any music that has had a strong
    impact on you. Make this your consistent habit from now on...

    Your Non Musical Swipe File


    Get a web based note taking app like Evernote and chuck in anything that “hits” you. Images, stories, situations,
    experiences, films, processes, conversations - put it all in there! Make a habit of putting this raw inspiration from
    your broader life into your swipe file...

    Your Project Journal


    Best to use an old fashioned pen and paper for this, and it works even better if you get a fancy one.
    (Makes it feel more special / proper doesn’t it?) You’ll use this before, during and after sessions to record
    thoughts, ideas and inspiration...

    Your “Bare Bones” Arrangement


    Without making any music at all, make a “bare bones” arrangement in your DAW using empty midi parts, simply
    describing what could happen when as an “empty” starting point.

    Your “Band”
    Think about having 4 “players” in your band from low to high. Each of them in a different frequency range: Bass /
    Lo Mid / Hi Mid / Hi

    Choose what instruments (plugins / synths / real instruments) you’re going to use as a starting point for each of
    these “players”. Also pick a drum machine (or drum kit in a plugin or sampler) to use for the beats. Save them as
    separate tracks in your bare bones arrangement...

    YOUR MINIMUM VIABLE COMMITMENT


    Make a cast iron commitment to yourself to work on your music for the period of time you WILL DO DAILY. It
    doesn't matter how long each session is. All you have to do is SOMETHING every day, even just 10 minutes is
    better that nothing. This "M.V.C." is your daily win...
