Musician's Survival Guide to a Killer RecordYou're a musician. Like most musicians, you write songs. And when you write a song that you're all excited about, you record it, probably mostly at home, perhaps in some local studios too. You may even invite some friends to participate. Then you probably put your new record on streaming sites, band sites, and social media sites, perhaps all of those, because you feel you absolutely killed it, and the whole world needs to hear your new song right now.

You're a musician. Like most musicians, you write songs. And when you write a song that you're all excited about, you record it, probably mostly at home, perhaps in some local studios too. You may even invite some friends to participate. Then you probably put your new record on streaming sites, band sites, and social media sites, perhaps all of those, because you feel you absolutely killed it, and the whole world needs to hear your new song right now. Some months later, you listen to your record again, only to realize you still adore the song, but the record itself fell short. Just like the last one did.

Which brings up a very important question: Are you 100% satisfied with your records?

Most of you are going to answer 'no' to that. Some of you probably believe that it's not even possible to be fully satisfied with your records. I'm here to tell you that it is. Who am I? I'm Mixerman, a producer, mixer, and recordist with multiple gold and platinum awards to my name. I was in precisely your position when I started out. I was a musician, happy with my songs, but frustrated with the recordings. In fact, it took me years to figure out how to make a Killer Record. The good news? I can help you to accelerate the learning curve considerably.

It doesn't matter whether you make hip-hop or country, electronica or metal, indie rock or power pop, no matter the genre, there are certain truths that are universal to all music. You are operating within a set of limitations both musically and technically and that's where your creativity must shine. You have what you have, and what you have is going to change. Your great Art is made manifest with the resources available to you right now.

This Survival Guide will help you overcome any impediment that might prevent you from achieving the record you intend, regardless of your recording environment, regardless of your gear, and regardless of your current skillset.

You can make a Killer Record under nearly any circumstance. It just requires the right mindset.

Much sturdier than it seems!
I have a Lab/Pyrenees mix which is a serial toy defluffer. I truly believed these would be in the garbage by the end of a day or 2. Yes the squeakers are in the land of unnamed squeaker graves, but the actual pockets and Velcro lasting like a champ! It takes him a few minutes to unroll them and get the treats out of the pockets. When he gets the late night energy boosts I fill them up and it gets him calm for bed. He will bring them to me if he wants to search for the treats. One of our favorite things. Plus, they are adorable. Total tail wagger!

Puppy loves it!
Style: Turtle
This turtle is adorable! My puppy absolutely loves it! It keeps her entertained for a while which is a godsend when potty training, and when I’m working from home. The pockets an are big enough to can stuff them full of tons of kibble or treats. She has so much fun playing with & pulling it apart and getting to the good stuff inside and the crinkly noise is a bonus for her as well. It definitely holding up.

Good value, fun play. Poor strings
Style: Monster
This turned out to be one of my Doberman puppy's favorite toys. He loves it and takes it everywhere. I didn't expect much, but the moment it came out of the box he loved it. The colors are still bright after a month of being knawed and chewed on. He loves playing tug a war with it, though the strings are not standing up to well to that. There are three of them, so he has choices. Pluse, he has an extra when missing one. I think they are wonderfully well made and shaped well to fit for him to chew on. He hasn't torn any stuffing out of it and tears either despite his daily rough play. It is fun watching for seeing him attack those poor little guys. The strings are only issue. It it slowly coming off in pieces. They are still hanging on, but dying a slow death. Pieces are being found all over the place. I keep a eye to try to make sure he isn't swallowing any. I, also love the cute designs. The three different ones are so cute I don't have a favorite and neither does my puppy. He will play with it for a while, not just tug a war. He likes the low low sounding squeaker. Low and now loud and annoying. The materials have a nice smooth feeling and no rough material. I don't mind holding on to it for tug a war or to throw it. It is easy to throw for him. Light but enough weight to send it though the air. Great value fore the price and the amount of three. I would just take the strings off. They could possibly be a danger hazard. Overall, I am glad I bought and a good value.

Holds up surprisingly well
Style: Monster
When your dachshund loves these, you buy extra just in case. He’s a tough chewer so I was a bit surprised it lasted very long. It’s going on two months, the legs are almost gone but the squeaker works and the fluff is still inside. He has to have his toy to go to bed so I’ve ordered backups
