I don't tell people my mixes will always go #1 on billboard. But when I am given decent tracks to work with I will deliver very good sounding mixes.
And because I love doing this I do the first mix free, and people can decide if they like my service later. Thats all.
I have the possibility to really work with heart on mixes I get. Money is a bonus.
I don't have to pump out mediocre mixes just to feed my family. |
You investing your time into your work makes you a professional at what you do. People do pay you so that makes you a professional at your craft.
I never said that "professional" Means: Hollywood famous musician. Not once. I said a real professional does what he can with what he has.
Think of it like this there are tons of professional guitar players out there, and they are not famous. They have no #1 hits on the charts. It all has to do with knowing your tools. And being very good with them.
