I am going to be honest. I have joined so many music sites over the years it’s quite overwhelming to think about lol. Some I get an email and think to myself “You haven’t been there in months”. Others I frequent often, and some I am just seeing how useful they have been, or can be.

I joined DynamicProducer.Com in 2006. Of course that was when I was doing work on film sets. Last year I began to visit more and more. I just renewed my 39$ for the annual general membership.

Here is a brief excerpt about “DP”:

Dynamic Producer is a membership based organization that supports the advancement of up & coming producers through Education and Opportunity. Our primary commitment is to create platforms for members to learn about the history of music, the business behind the music, as well as current events and trends. In addition we provide opportunities for members to expose their music to the music industry at large.……..read more here:DynamicProducer About Page

There is so much information in the forum. There are soundkits, interviews, and many to network with. Check this! I even get emails with options to send tracks to industry artist and labels…sweet! . Another thing, it’s so easy to reach the owner and moderators, as they frequent the site often.

Dynamic Producer also host several conferences for producers. The next one is this month in Atlanta.

Here are a few videos of previous events:

It’s Monday, a new day, a new dawn, and the first day of fall. I had an interesting weekend and feeling very good about up coming events.

The site is officially on and popping. We are approaching 5 months on Sept 26th, and 24,000 plus visits since the first post. I am back to music, and finding a functional balance between writing here and working with artist.

You all have helped me with leaving questions and comments. I get great ideas for post from you, and the live help sessions add to what I write as well. A hearty “Thank You” goes out to all my supporters and readers. Remember to subscribe:
MsTrisMusic.Com RSS Feed ,

There will be a few contest coming soon, and I want everyone to have a chance to win some free goodies.

I received a comment on Friday, about a new site inspired by us. This means you and I because MsTrisMusic is becoming a joint effort as I stated above. With out you the readers, future producers, and music enthusiast, MsTrisMusic would not be a success. So celebrate with me, pat yourself on the shoulder today, and let’s continue to make some great music.

Here’s the message:

“wassup, i have been checking out your site for a couple of weeks and it has inspired me to start my own. Check it out http://dangerousdiction.blogspot.com and lets network. Peace!!”

So far so good over at DangerousDiction, I wish Mr.Macc much success. Stop by and check his site sometime dangerousdiction.blogspot.com. I’ll definitely be reading as well.

At the end of working on the set of Season 5 of Hbo’s “The Wire”, I invested in this ^ beginners guitar. It will be a year in October, but I only know a few notes. I had to make the transition back to music from 2 straight years of film work. After a few months reorganizing my lab, connecting all the modules, and hardware to my DAW, I began to study music theory. In April I got the site up and running, and now blogging is a part of my career.

I used to be on my local scene heavy. You could find me at almost every event, battle, and hip hop function weekly. Between 2004 and 2006 I have worked with over 60 artist and my beat game was booming. I was making about 4 or 5 beats daily, and on just about every mixtape or major local cd that came out. Folks locally have been wondering where I’ve been lately..is she still doing beats?….Is she still doing film work?… The answer is yes to beats, and no to film work (at least for a while).

I was explaining to Sol Eternity, a long time mentor of mine, that my focus is different than before. I think he was assuming I was giving up from his response. What he didn’t hear is what my site reveals. The Music Industry relies heavily on the internet for survival. Here I am making my mark, I am no longer frantically chasing a place called “The Industry”, I realize that I am in “The Industry”. I am making a decent living doing what I love, right here with people just like me.

What this realization has done, is open doors for more musical freedom. When I was ” a hungry, greedy, starving” producer..lol… my feet weren’t quite planted on solid ground. Today I feel I am able to create freely,and I have more time with the artist I produce for. I have more time to learn new things about music, and I have more time to teach what I am learning. If I had not done the music hiatus while on film sets, this site would still be under construction, and I would still be on the merry go round of::: beats,studio, shows, sell beats, spend the money at shows, beats, shows, studio,spend money on an outfit for the shows..etc etc… I guess life said “STOP”….and now I am on a much better and more smooth path.

This morning I’m up early. I’ve been puppy sitting for a couple days… and he’s a cutey. It’s my cousins little Shih Tzu and looks similar to this

He’s been adorable the whole time… he pees a lot though ….

Well I have several projects on the way. Today I’ll be doing a couple beats for some pioneers of Hip Hop. This opportunity is an honor. Easy Tee one of the original members of “The Dream Team” hit me up for some new heat. It’s 6:43 am, and I’ve fed puppy… I’m gonna play with him a while, then get started. I’ll post up some pictures of how I’m doing on the tracks through out the day…
I felt like doing something different with todays posts.

In the meantime, check out some Hip Hop history. Easy Tee’s Myspace page is loaded with links to the origionators. This is the true roots of Rap Music/ Hip Hop which was born over 30 years ago!~…

This symbol represents a site that acknowledges music education bloggers. I am happy to say MsTrisMusic.Com is among the top 100….

Celebrate with me by clicking the link, making some time in your schedule to take a long visit. There is so much information…. I sorta feel like I’m in college. There are sites about practicing, theory, several tutorial sites, and lesson sites…the list is tremendous and I’m sure any musician will benefit from something that’s there….

Here’s a brief introduction excerpt from the site:
This site was established in order to spread the “word” faster about music, technology, and other related educational topics. This site was created by Dr. Prof. Joseph Pisano and began as a sub-domain of http://jpisano.com in August of 2006. It officially became mustech.net in October of 2006.

Although many of the topics discussed here will be about music technology, you also find plenty of material that deals with the various forms of electronic technologies, that aren’t necessarily related to music, as well. From time to time, you may also find COMPLETELY unrelated topics that we feel are interesting to our readers. ………

Now head on over to read the rest, and get a ship load of music education…:-)
