Everything must go. The biggest and final sale on my courses.
I want to be straight with you because this community deserves that. You know I've been pouring pretty much my entire day into helping composers with the business side of things. Guides, calls, resources, answering questions at all hours. I loved doing it and I still do. I was passionate enough to believe this could become my full time thing. But at some point reality kicks in and the truth is that not enough people converted to keep this going the way I was running it. So I made a decision. Every course in the Audio Artist Academy classroom is now at the lowest price it will ever be. Please be aware that this does NOT include guest courses, ComposerOS and the new workshops! This is the biggest and final sale I'll ever do. These prices are permanent. No countdown timers, no fake urgency. Just the reality of where things stand. A few courses are still in early access and I will absolutely finish them. You have my word on that. Now the other important part: Audio Artist Rise is staying. The live calls are staying. This community of 2,000 people is staying. I'm looking forward to continuing to build something great here with all of you. What's changing is that I can't keep dedicating the bulk of my day to creating free content and hoping it turns into something sustainable. That chapter is closing. To everyone who invested in themselves, showed up to calls, put in the work and actually made moves: You made all of this worth it. Watching some of you land deals and sign with companies has been one of the best parts of my career. I'm not going anywhere. I'm just being honest about what has to change. If you have questions, drop them below. Check the new prices here. Hint: They are LOW! https://www.skool.com/audio-artist-academy/classroom I'm here. Cheerio, Alex

New podcast episode just dropped.
I sat down with Gabe Shadid on the Epic Score podcast and we went deep. We talked about how I got started with guitar at 14, moved to LA at 23 to study music, ended up in a band with a BMG record deal, and eventually shifted into composing for trailers and video games. One of the highlights: how I ended up singing as the German evil guys in all three Wolfenstein games after Mick Gordon reached out looking for someone who could sing in a rough German voice. The whole MachineGames team ended up phonetically recreating my vocals for a pub scene. That story alone is worth the listen. We also got into the realities of breaking into the industry, why most demo reels fail (stop sending SoundCloud links), and how AI fits into the picture for composers right now. If you want to hear the full journey and some unfiltered thoughts on where this industry is headed, check it out. https://youtu.be/E3-jRcCaP0g?si=l1-s5_XkKoRdQNIM
Custom trailer work
Hi everyone🖤, I had a quick question for those of you who have experience with custom trailer works. I recently delivered a custom cue through a library for a big film project, and I was wondering what the typical timeline is to hear back from the client about whether the track has been selected or not. In your experience, how long does it usually take before you get a response? I imagine it can vary quite a bit depending on the project, but I’d be curious to hear what timelines you’ve typically encountered. Thanks in advance for any insights!!🙏🖤
