I've been building a music production business for the past couple of years and am finally living the DN life after years of lurking around here. Currently in Lisbon and heading to Thailand for the first few months of 2024.
Being a DNing music producer definitely has its struggles - especially having to work out of AirBnBs instead of studios, and having to carry around gear and instruments (I currently pack a traveler guitar, a MIDI keyboard, decent headphones, and an interface). At the same time it's an extremely flexible profession and I get to work whenever for the most part. I do most of my work from my accommodation as co-working spots aren't fond of guitars lol.
I meet a lot of software engineers, design folk, video editors etc but am yet to find a DN'ing music professional.
What's your experience been like?
I'm curious about the traveler guitar you use? I'm not a professional musician by any means, just play for fun, and other than friends and family, playing guitar is the thing I've missed most this past year as a DN.
i dont play, but some fit under front airplane seat... https://ciariguitars.com/
