Arranger Keyboard

How to become a keyboard player Famous

You have a small studio set up. You could have a Yamaha Motif ES 6 and maybe a Roland XV 5080 and possibly arranger keyboard such as Yamaha or Korg PA1 Tyros. All this can be hooked to a computer sequencer such as Cakewalk Sonar 6 or Steinberg Cubase or you would prefer drives a sequencer such as the Yamaha AW1600. Anyway, you have all of the above or similar and you are ready to create the best keyboard single or album ever created. So how do we do?

Well the first and probably the most important thing you need is no luck and lots of it. This means making sure your musical masterpiece is heard by the right person. So you need to search and find out who you should be sending your demos. If you can, send your demos to everybody on the planet and keep sending them. Create your own luck, talk to musicians, buy music mags, and create contacts. Make a policy of creating a contact day.

Whether you're a musician or studio work geek, you MUST find a new sound, style, or something that is different enough for people to sit and listen. He did not appeal to the masses, he just needs to appeal to enough people, so you get a slice of the market. A good example of this is Vangelis. It has a unique sound, it is different and it uses a small slice of the music market. How about Jeff Wayne, he created its own slice of the market with a single album, "War of the Worlds". Not to mention Mike Oldfield "Tubular Bells". These are just a few examples, but they all have something in common, unique.

It is easy to write and more difficult to put into practice. I tried to come up with this idea, and I have some demos on tapes in the collection of dust from the attic. Unfortunately, I did not become the next player keyboard or a famous composer. He, however, create other opportunities and consequently I was a musician who has worked for more thirty years and have loved every minute of it.

So if you have different, crazy, weird, violent ideas, or ridiculous floating inside your head. Try setting it to music, you never know, you could be the next great keyboard player or composer, and lets face it we need one. I'm sick of all the remixes. Let's have something new.

Oh and one last thing. Never give up.
