Welcome to FP Derrick,
I consider myself a veteran here. However, many trolls would beg to differ. Users fill the community with music reviews and advice that folks can use to start and run a music industry career. It features an active community of users with many reasons to post here. And I like it here because they support the user community. Musicians share links for review, and they find ways to collaborate. So much time has passed since my last visit. I am wondering what is new with this forum. I do not see all of the advertising that was here before, so that is fabulous. I wonder what else has changed since my last binge era.
I come here to advise from time to time. However, this forum has changed a ton over the years. And the design for these threads is a new one. I like the fact that users can make status updates now. And the trophy system seems very cool. I am a sales expert, audio engineer, and web developer. In 2018, I started my company, Indie Host. And I am currently working on a WordPress web development called Music B Logic. It is a searchable blog for now. I write notes daily to see that it is ok to DIY a site when you do not have everything you feel you need.
I have a few clients that host websites with me. However, I want to do more for them. However, it is expensive for me to provide the services that I give them at a cut-rate. And I did not realize that I have become so familiar with systems that are confusing for startups. Since 2019, I have been working to develop a plan to enable me to help them promote the songs they make. Because I like musicians to live a successful lifestyle, I create WordPress music groups to market and promote. And I also make songs from time to time because I can afford to produce when I want. I work hard so that I can afford the luxury to create beats when I feel like it. Because I was never really into the make beats fast mindset. I believe that a song comes together as fast as it does.
