Why take this course?

You don't need to be a recording engineer or industry expert. You don't even need a lot of money. You just need a solid, executable plan that will take you from preparing to record, all the way to a successful album release. Think like the pros when it comes to recording and releasing your album. Know what to do before and after recording your album.

This course IS NOT meant to teach you the skills you need to engineer your recording (ex. recording, mixing, and mastering). There are definitely tips included in this course to point you in the right direction. There are plenty of how-to courses out there that teach you the specific ins and outs of the recording process, but they completely miss out on what to do before and after recording. This course fills in those missing pieces.

Producer and studio owner, James Scott, has joined with industry veteran Draven Grey and artist/promoter Katrin Brunier to show you a vital element about recording that is missing from most other courses -- the essentials of planning, organising, recording, releasing, and marketing an album, no matter your budget.

  • The only course anywhere covering the essentials of making your recording a success on any budget

  • Over 6.5 hours of step-by-step guidance to make your album a success

  • Over 70 Lectures and Articles!

  • 3 instructors highly experienced in what it takes to record and release a professional album and start building your music career

If you want to record and successfully release a professional sounding album, even if you think you don't have enough money to, then this course is for you.

This course is backed by the combined experience of running recording studios, coaching bands across the world, and helping countless artists release their music. We give you exactly what you need to budget, plan, record, and successfully release your album without the headaches of overspending, no one caring, or losing creative control.

Besides the above list of "What You'll Learn," here are other things you'll learn in this course:

  • Get you and your band ready to record

  • The tools you need to make the right decisions when recording and avoid the errors that so many bands make

  • The keys to using the recording process to make friends in the industry and launch a successful career in music

  • How bands get themselves blacklisted by the industry without even realising it

  • How to use the latest developments in the music industry to your advantage

Start reframing how you think about recording and releasing an album, follow along as we help you budget and plan recording and releasing your album, and start moving towards a truly successful album release.

If you're serious about your music, you need to take this course. It hits on just about everything you will need to navigate as a band/artist, and it goes deep. When it comes to your music, you can't just hire a team to do everything and trust that they know what they're doing. You need to know enough to be dangerous yourself, so you know EXACTLY how something should be done. I've taken just about every course that exists on this topic, and this one is BY FAR the best. If you want to make music your day job, this is the course you need. Bonus: it's unbelievably entertaining! This makes it easy to watch -- but even more than that, it makes you remember what you learn.
