Episode 41
Greetings and thanks for joining me on this podcast!
This week I wanted to ask a question that I think most musicians struggle with. Should we be recording our own music?
Traditionally, our music gets recorded in a professional recording studio with skilled engineers who know the ins and outs of recording. However, with the technology we have today, recording equipment has become more available to us as musicians.
This gives us the opportunity to record our own music. But should we?
There is no question that there are benefits to learning how to record yourself as well as benefits going to a reputable studio. Hopefully I can address some of these issues in this episode especially if you’re on the fence about investing in some recording equipment of your own.
In This Podcast You Will Learn:
1). How and why we now have the capabilities as musicians to record our own music without needing to enter a recording studio.
2). The benefits of learning how to record yourself and how that can make you a more well-rounded musician and capable of being more autonomous.
3). Some of the drawbacks of trying to record your own music and making it sound “professional”.
4). The reason I’ve decided to record my own album in my creative project and my mindset and expectations about the quality and final product.
5). How you can easily get started if and when you do decide to start recording your own music.

Making the choice to record your own music rather than go to a studio can be an intimidating step. As mentioned, there are pros and cons for both scenarios.
Regardless, as musicians, we should always try to be aware of the recording process. It’s an integral part of being a musician and the more you can know about what goes into it, the better off you’ll be.
Til next time,
Peace N Love
Mike
