#280: Keep Creating with Mr Ed Rollo

Ed Rollo is a musician, educator, and Ableton Certified Trainer. He creates straight-talking, no nonsense videos for his YouTube channel that help musicians see past the empty promises of hacks and shortcuts. Ed runs the online education community mredrollo+. As a fan of his video content and overall philosophical approach to music making, I was very excited to talk with Ed. He did not disappoint. Ed shared wisdom about his background and career. He pointed out truths about music making and offered some helpful approaches to growing as an artist.  Listen on iTunes or Stitcher or Google Play or Spotify; watch on YouTube Show Notes: Ed's Site - https://mredrollo.com mredrollo+ Online Training - https://plus.mredrollo.com Ed's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/mredrollo "Appraisal" by mredrollo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSC4KpEZ6Tw Drew Mayhills on the Music Production Podcast - https://brianfunk.com/blog/2019/8/18/drew-mayhills-a-new-release-every-month-music-production-podcast-123 What Bob Ross Teaches Us About Music Production - https://brianfunk.com/blog/what-bob-ross-teaches-us-about-music-production War of Art by Steven Pressfield - https://amzn.to/3CwzYyt Essentialism by Greg McKeown - https://amzn.to/3QVqLDI Making Music by Dennis DeSantis - https://makingmusic.ableton.com Someday is Today by Matthew Dicks - https://amzn.to/3AjTmvz Brian Funk Links: Website - https://brianfunk.com Intro Music Made with One Knob Ableton Live Pack - https://brianfunk.com/one-knob Ableton Live Pack Archive - https://brianfunk.com/blog/ableton-live-pack-archive Music Production Club - https://brianfunk.com/mpc Music Production Podcast - https://brianfunk.com/podcast Save 25% on Ableton Live Packs at my store with the code: PODCAST - https://brianfunk.com/store Thank you for listening.  Please review the Music Production Podcast on your favorite podcast provider!
