I gave a lecture on Friday to a class of Masters students studying all thing post production on the realities of the industry and also how to get work. It was then quite heartened to find this article on Music Clout, which seems to echo a lot of the things I was suggesting. I think it makes interesting reading and it also means that I don't have to re-type out my list :) Although I probably will put the presentation online at some point.The most important point I would echo from this, is discovering what your niche is and really working towards being the best in that niche!Enjoy and good luck out therePeaceNeil
