Podcast update - two big guests locked in
As of this morning, I've confirmed conversations with two incredible guests: JMO is VP of Creative at The Bus Music, a boutique Nashville-based music publishing company. He built his foundation in film/TV and digital operations at BMI and has secured sync placements with Netflix, Hulu, HBO, NBC, ABC, Google, and Nike for artists including Megan Thee Stallion and Mary J. Blige - with music appearing in Grey's Anatomy, The Rookie, Insecure, Cobra Kai, and hundreds more. Heather Evans is a prolific, award-winning singer/songwriter and sync educator who has placed her independent music on Netflix (First Kill, Love Is Blind), MTV (Teen Mom 2), NBC (La Brea promo), Disney, FOX (So You Think You Can Dance), and Nickelodeon - all without traditional representation. She's also the latest addition to the Glow Music Group team. More details coming soon.

Desert theme first revision
First off I wanna say I greatly appreciate the feedback from the first post, I applied the necessary changes and overall I feel as if my track is that much closer to being finished. I am new to this style of music and have only been producing it for a few months now. I have experimented with ideas before but I’ve never actually gave it enough effort. Most ideas got abandoned in the wasteland of no return. However I am here to show the new and improved version of my track. I really analyzed the feedback and applied it to the track. I emphasized more energy towards the second half of the track. I decided that the first part of the track is more of the player searching and discovering. It feels pretty open and honestly I couldn’t quite figure out if it was missing something still or just over thinking. I really thought about the direction the track is heading and I opted in for a more action packed second half to signify a tense more dramatic feel almost as if the player has stumbled around the bosses lair. Again class I am here for help and feedback though I feel my track is about 80% complete. Be honest with me and help me elaborate on new ideas to help finish this first segment. I feel like now that the volume is up some elements are more apparent. Where can I go from this? Should I add more melodies to help fill in some space or add more ambiance or texture? How does the mix sound? Does it help convey the theme and story a bit better? Or does it still feel like our hero is lost astray? https://s.disco.ac/azrkuuubfpbx

Hey bro, didn't want to leave you on read, loving all the changes. I'll have some more extensive notes tmrw am. Would love to tag @Tim Jeffcoat & @Dawn Dineen for feedback in here as well. I know they both are busy today so maybe tomorrow or over the weekend they'll be able to also add in their notes
Feedback for a Pop Ballad?
Hey all! Looking for feedback for my first finished track since we've started in the Sync Accelerator! I'm a little nervous sharing for the first time, but I'm ready! This track was heavily inspired by soft pop/piano ballads by Tate McRae, Olivia Rodrigo, and Lewis Capaldi, and. could use your feedback to help me finish it. My To Do List still includes: -Timing Vocal Doubles -Ear Candy/Transitions/Creating small moments that keep the track moving -Mixing! Right now I've got levels roughly where I want them but would like some feedback before I start mixing. Right now, my biggest struggles are with drums and of course vocals. Do the drums feel sort of flat? Are the background vocals distracting? I feel like I'd like to add more layers but don't want to overdo it or take away from the main melody in a ballad like this. Thanks for any feedback ya'll might have! https://s.disco.ac/qlehcesqkkqm

@Jennifer Crowe this has really come a long way since the rough that I heard just a week or two ago. Great work overall. I think the drums and the vibe that you have in the chorus around 3:20 could come in sooner (1 chorus sooner) , and then I agree with Kaleb's notes about the vocal stacks. I think there's just some edits and little detail elements that could take this from good to great, and not just great but like goose-bump level great! Also, agree with @Dawn Dineen @Terry Bradford and @Kaleb Blackard 's notes

Born Original EP
Hello Everyone. Just wanted to share the EP I created entitled "Born Original". Its basically a body of work dedicated to the Ancestors (as per my intro) and a testament to authenticity and originality. I will delete this post in a few days so please take a listen when you have time. Feedback welcome. "Born Original" is currently available on Even.biz and will be released on all streaming platforms April 17th. https://s.disco.ac/xrnkavjilsbp

No worries, also dropping this below as a reminder of how to ask for feedback. HOW TO SHARE TRACKS FOR FEEDBACK: 1. Upload to Disco.ac only - We're all using it, keep everything in one place 2. Share the Disco link in Track Feedback & Finishing category 3. Be specific about what feedback you need: "Is this mix sync-ready?" "Does this hit the 'uplifting indie' vibe or miss?" "I'm stuck on the bridge at 1:32 - does it work?" General "thoughts?" posts get general responses. Specific questions get specific help.

@Jamie Fontaine-Ellis helpful video below :)
Question....
Whats everyone's thoughts on sync agencies that charge you to submit to a sync opportunity? I just recently seen a sync opportunity that may fit perfectly for a track I plan on releasing in May. I was excited to submit until I seen that you must pay a small sync fee to submit. Am I wrong but I immediately get turned off whenever I see this lol, hence my excitement subsides. I have no problem investing in myself and what I require for resources.. But as I said in a previous comment, all these expenses seem to gouge creatives left and right and offer nothing in return.... Is this a wrong attitude when it comes to sync lol.. should I pay everytime I submit to an opportunity... Its exhausting lol... Rant over lol

@Jamie Fontaine-Ellis Yeah, that's nuts. Again, they are primarily making their money off of people paying for the track submissions and not likely actually getting stuff placed. If they are, then they're making the majority of their money off of people paying for the submissions, which is not how the business works. Seen Drop Days social and ads all over the place and was bothered by them very early on, so I'm not surprised that they're doing this. I never looked into them because I always had a ick about them.
