Colossal house maker, Sandro Silva, recently sat down with D.A. and gave some industry secrets that any aspiring artist should take to heart. With dance music constantly scrutinized for being washed out, the industry has become more competitive than ever for originality. With tracks like ‘Epic' & ‘Payback' under his belt, Sandro is no newcomer to blazing trails. These 5 tips are simple but yet artists are seeming to look right past them.
1. ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR FIRST INSTINCT IN THE STUDIO
2. EMBRACE DIFFERENCE
3. TWEAK SOUNDS TO THE MAX
4. ANALYZE THE BIG HITS
5. DON'T SIT BACK AND RELAX
“Don’t ever compare yourself to others, but make sure you learn from them and take advantage from that to get your own sound. Don’t waste time and make sure you spend many hours in the studio, because that’s gonna help you a lot with finding the right sound that fits you.” –Sandro Silva
Taken to heart these 5 things can bring your career a long way. Continue to push your sounds and expressions to the next level, thats all you can do. Don't look outwards to one of the most hectic industries in the world but inwards to yourself. Musical production should be a reflection of yourself, not the Beatport top 10.
