Live review: Little Dragon at the Natural History Museum
It seemed fitting for the Swedish synth-pop band Little Dragon to kick off the Natural History Museum’s First Fridays series last week. If you wanted to stuff and mount a specimen of today’s tasteful, adventurous-enough indie electronica for posterity, the…

Diago’s Little Smasher puts a 5W guitar amp in a tiny carbon steel box (video)
Sure, you can always plug your axe into a computer (or even an iPhone ) and make sweet, sweet music with software. But what about those times you need an honest-to-goodness amplifier? Diago’s Little Smasher is a full-fledged 5 watt guitar amp head that is only roughly the size of an effects pedal. The thing’s quite stripped down — active bass and treble (which gives you more control of the tone …

Attention Music Lovers: Discover A Little Known Business You Can Start In The Music Industry That Will Put Hundreds Of Dollars In Your Pocket Weekly

August 18, 2010 in Local Music by stagemaster

Let’s face it. The music industry has been deteriorating lately. With pirated songs online, and the economy in ruins, people just aren’t forking over their money to buy CD’s. But there is one section of the music industry that has been silently humming along, despite the economy (and their CD sales are still going strong). That section is the local music industry.

Local bands are still enjoying a steady stream of new work and many sell their own CD’s at the clubs they play around town. Not surprisingly, in order to get gigs and to increase their revenue, these bands need to make demo tapes and CD’s for their fans. To do this, they need a recording studio.

Now, most people don’t have a recording studio in their home. And that’s where you come in. If you have a spare section of your garage, or perhaps a spare bedroom, you can literally create a home studio of your own, one that could be generating cash for you in as little as 30 days.

With the many bands and aspiring musicians in every local town in the country, it makes sense that this would be an area that is thriving – and it is. Smart entrepreneurs have tapped into this lucrative market and are quietly raking in the dough every week.

There are lots of benefits to this type of business. The first is that you are targeting a hungry crowd. It’s similar to when the gold rush happened in California. The miners looking for the gold weren’t the ones who got rich. It was the business owners who supplied them with the tools they needed to mine that became extremely wealthy.

The music industry is its own pot of gold. There are always new bands forming and aspiring musicians are everywhere. Also, a majority of the bands will split up and then form another band with new members. It’s literally a revolving door of potential customers, no matter how small your town.

Another benefit to this type of business is that it can be started on a shoestring and up and running very quickly. If you started from scratch with no previous equipment, you could have everything you need for under $500. With just this basic equipment, you could have your first client within 3 days.

You can also do it on a part time basis while still holding down a regular job. As your income grows, you can decide when you want to ditch your job and go full time. You can easily make between $150-$950/day, so it probably won’t take long before you decide to say goodbye to your boss. The typical recording studio can easily pull in $250,000/year.

Contrary to popular belief, the technical requirements for owning a studio are very simple. You can learn everything you need to know in under 3 hours and even novices can command high prices for their studio. Then of course there are the bonuses. You get to hang out with bands all day and become a ‘rock star’ in your own right. It’s a pretty cool way to make a living, isn’t it?

Home recording studio owners have been quietly raking in the cash for years. It’s one of the most stable, and lucrative businesses in the music industry, not to mention one of the most enjoyable.

Provided you get a little guidance on the set up, your home recording studio business should be up and running – and thriving – in no time.
