The Reviews...
From ASCAP
What if you could talk one-on-one with some of the greatest names in music today, like Grammy winning ASCAP songwriter Diane Warren, Grammy winning artist/legendary guitarist/founding member of "Toto" Steve Lukather, the famed record engineer and producer Bob Clearmountain, and mastering engineer to the stars Bob Ludwig and others, and they gave you their much sought-after advice on how to make music just like the biggest and best music stars.

In How To Make It In The New Music Business, Robert Wolff not only gives you this information from his interviews with these music legends, but reveals to you the technology and equipment that the "real music artists and producers" use to make their hit records and shows you how to use it to make hit sounding major record label quality music and records anywhere.

Think of this book as your "Music Road Map" that will take you from where you are to where you want to be, simply by following its step-by-step plan.

Far too many songwriters and musicians spend years and years of their lives becoming great at their craft, but rarely, do many of them know how the real world music game is played, or how to create a hugely successful career and do it all on their own terms. With this book, those days are over.

Customer Reviews

A holistic view of the music business

Recently I was looking for a book to learn more about the music business, contracts, marketing, new ways of distribution, etc. I encountered this book and was surprised by the lack of reviews. But nevertheless I decided to get a sample into my kindle and read the first chapter. After that I bought it and kept reading. The book isdivided into 14 different lessons which are organized in a logical manner analogous to the way you go into starting a business, producing and album and selling it. The book covers a lot of material and it iswritten in a very friendly way, easy to understand, but still using a language that professionals are not to going to find silly (if you know what I mean). If you've been doing music for a while, you will find that many of the things you already do. But there are some not very obvious things that are worth the reading of the book. I am sure it will vary depending on the kind of experience you've had. I will say it is a very holistic , and not that superficial, coverage of the music business. It is a fact that music is changing so fast that without doubt many of the things in this book will soon be obsolete, i.e.software programs, websites, etc. So I hope that there is an update at some point in the future. This being said I don't feel the book is dated in any significant way at this point. If you are interested in music and music business you willdefinitely find some sound advice and a lot of inspiration in this book. It opened my mind in many ways.

Good

Old music vs. new, old methods vs. new methods, digital vs. analog, all these "enemies" are presented here in detail coupled with an analysis of cons and pros of every part involved. The book is a bible for those just starting in the music industry, and a revelation for people that have been in the business for a long time. New technologies and methods take over the old school and many people have a hard time adjusting, this title will help all these people get through the transition easy and without problems.

This book was a great overview

of what is needed in order to suceed in todays music industry. Well written and inspiring it is a very enjoyable read for anyone just starting out in the business or veterans who wish to touch up on all aspects of the industry. I enjoyed the inspiring words from Bob Clearmountain and Bob Ludwig. Good things 5 stars
