EMP or Sound Engineering? :S

Well, that's good. My advice is keep the law thing going. At least keep it as a back up. I've seen the music industry diminish massively in UK. Much more music being made in small home studios. In 2007 it stopped being a viable way of living for me as an engineer. Producers need quite a good selling album to make money, or string of top singles. As most say on here, you can't make much of a living selling underground tracks on Beatport. It's easier than ever to get your music heard through the internet, but now harder than ever to make a living from it.

Thats great advice on one hand as well as demoralising on the other haha.
I do believe times are harder now, especially with the number of artists having increased 10 fold with the rise in
technology. Yeah, so you suggest audio at this point in time doesnt make sense at all?

No, not at all. Things are better in the U.S. than the U.K. There is much more money. EDM has become mainstream.

I'm just saying keep a back up, if you can.

Though wasn't Dubstep/Dnb originated in UK? Shouldn't the UK have better scope for both these genres?
I've got a bba.llb degree as a back up.
Thanks for all your input. You've been very helpful.

Drive and enthusiasm will get you everywhere
