Do some albums for a low rate to build credits then go to a normal rate.

You said "I been doing mastering not for a long time" well thats why you aren't getting working not because of being spanish. You need to learn how to network with producers and engineers they will bring you the albums not the record labels.

When i first started i only got a song here and there, then an ep maybe then an album, all indie off the street stuff, then slowly a single for a smaller label, then an album, then eventually bigger projects.

It takes time and alot of hard work to build a career.

And on the effort part, when you are not mastering a project, do you put in 8 hours a day trying to get a project to work on ???

"I like to know what's the secret on this business" for me it was simple, i busted my ass every single day from day one when i started in a recording studio as runner to the present.

Just because you buy gear and have a website doesn't mean people are gonna bring you albums to work on. You speak spanish and live in florida, go out into the local music scene promote yourself & the studio.
