My first project that has been commissioned by an organisation as a freelance creative is out in the world! It’s been fun working with Brighter Sound on this. It got me reflecting on Partnerships in Creative Work. Here are my thoughts on some elements on why I think it’s gone well.

If you make beats, get involved in this Sample Flip Challenge!  Deadline is Tuesday 31st May, 11:59pm (GMT)
