I thought I saw something was off when the 8-BEN form stated “Do not fill this out if you are a US Citizen.”

Thank you for the information!

Thanks for your response Beatslinger.

Good perspective on getting to the majors. I’m starting to see this as a valid path and a risk worth taking. I would certainly have to raise my game for it and there is much to learn and improve on.

That’s amazing that you’re doing some mentoring. There’s nothing better than being able to have someone guide you through in the beginning and get some credits. Inspiring.

FYI…the initials you mentioned are not the ones of the folks I’ve been in contact with, but I have been very impressed with who I’m talking to. All have serious hustle, are dominating niche genres, have great branding and very high standards….everything to the nth degree.

Could this influx of companies mean that the music in the top-tiers are aging and they need to replace a serious chunk of older material with new, shiny stuff?

I saw $4.01 from Hulu for 90457 streams of :48 of a song in a film. It received the “T” use code which I think is for “Theme” (correct me if I’m wrong) This was a song written for the soundtrack album and the song was used in a portion of the end credits.

If this is the future, what is the winning strategy?

Is there any way to verify these stream numbers?

I took the Orchestration 1 and 2 courses many years ago and thought they both were excellent. Ben Newhouse was my Orch 2 instructor and he was great! BMI members get a 10% discount so maybe you can take advantage of that too.

I still listen back to the assignments and my notes to keep the concepts fresh in my mind. Well worth it. I also went to Berklee years ago for synthesis/production and found the quality of instruction to be very high. I’m happy the online courses seem to have the same quality standard.

Have fun!
