Hey everyone, Would i be right in that the Trailblazers 1 is a fuller course than what Alex started adding youtube a few months ago (the series called Free Trailer Music Course). Also, what is covered in part 2? Sorry if ive missed a post somewhere explaining this. Many thanks Jay

Hey team, Quick heads up about what's coming in the next 72 hours. 🎬 ComposerOS: VST plugin video drops very soon The next ComposerOS video goes live before this Sunday at 23:59 Berlin time. You'll build your own VST plugin and load it straight into Cubase or any other DAW that supports VST plugins. No coding background required. At the same moment, the founding price locks. $97 becomes $147. In ComposerOS, you build the AI assistants that handle the work around composing. Sample tagging, cold outreach, web presence, and now your own audio plugin. The music stays yours. The time you save goes back into writing it. If you're already a founding member, the new module unlocks automatically when it drops. Open the classroom and you'll see it the moment it goes live: https://www.skool.com/audio-artist-academy/classroom/7a3929fb?md=98626aa945074592bee0470489208ee5 If you want the full breakdown first, the landing page is here: https://cos.alexpfeffer.com 📚 Spring sale: my other 6 courses are still on If you already own these, they're sitting in your classroom right now and you can dive straight in.

If enough of you flag the same headache, that's a strong contender for the next ComposerOS scenario.

I’m genuinely curious how most musicians here are generating their revenue. It’s a conversation I often have with members of my team, because the answer says a lot about positioning, leverage, and long-term strategy. Are you relying mostly on live shows, publishing, streaming, production work, brand deals, or something else entirely? I’d love to hear how you’ve structured it.

Hey Everyone! Hope you're having a great week so far. Just wanted to share some news with you - I received a PRS payment this morning, and it turns out that I had my first sync placements last year! PRS has only just caught up, but my music was used on BBC Parliament as well as a couple of Romanian television channels. I've yet to find the actual placements (TuneSat is pulling nothing back at the moment), but I'll try to share them if I find them! As for the amount, it was by no means life-changing - but it was a very nice surprise this morning and covered the reasonably hefty car repair bill that I received yesterday! It's a start, and a real motivator to kick on and keep writing and releasing tracks across libraries of all different shapes and sizes. I'm also happy with the timings - the album launched last May (Q2 2025) and the placements came between July and September (Q3 2025). Obviously mileage varies, but it's nice to see that the tracks weren't sat idle for too long before they were used! Anyway, I hope this is a bit of reassurance for those of you releasing tracks and albums and waiting for the rewards to come back. Music admin is slow and takes time, so be patient and just keep writing! (Apologies to those who already saw this message in The Sync Circle, just wanted to circulate here too and say a huge thanks to @Alex Pfeffer for all of his continued support!)
