Here’s the 4 Phases of Making an Album
Aug 23 - Sept 19: Preparation
On Aug 23 (Aug 24 for Aus/NZ), we will meet for a "Unique Style Preparation".
In this 2-hour session, I'll show you how to set up so you can run 100s of experiments to find the ingredients which will make up your unique style.
Plus, I'll show you how to organise and arrange your life outside the studio.
This will set you up so that even with work, family, friends and life - you can laser-focus on making the best possible unique album.
Then, before the main program starts (four weeks after this session), you'll run these experiments for yourself using the specific unique style strategies I've given you.
Sept 20 - Oct 17: Idea Generation
One of the fatal mistakes when trying to make unique music is believing you can THINK your way into it.
You can't.
What you think you want to make is simply a starting point.
Extreme quantity is the best method for making the best music AND developing your unique style.
Trust me, I've been obsessed with my unique style for decades, and there's no other way to do it.
So, we'll turbocharge your idea generation to discover what your style and album could become.
Oct 18 - Nov 14: Execution
First, you'll say "no" to most of the ideas you've made and most of the experiments you've run.
Because you'll have made so much by this point, you'll be shocked to see an authentic style emerging—a style that excites you. This excitement and momentum will mean you can't help getting these ideas into an arrangement.
You'll still work on more than ends up on the final album, so you won't have to force ANYTHING.
By focusing on the best ideas, building draft arrangements in your unique style is a breeze.
Nov 14 - Dec 12: Presentation
By now, you'll have a clear style you're working towards and a clear idea of the shape of your album.
Some songs will be "possibles".
These will be either great OR in your unique style.
But some will be "musts".
The musts will be in your unique style AND great.
Starting with the "musts", we'll go deep into solving their problems.
Together, we'll iron out the issues between you and that unique style album you can be proud of!
Our final deadline is December 13
Giving us a week to finish up any bits and pieces.
Thank you very much! I have ben very sceptical but this program and especially the sessions of working as a group have helped me tremendously in completing my next album. Mike is a fantastic coach and asks very precise questions. Thank you forever!
Before I did a course with Mike, I was very slow at making music. I was precious with demos, laboured over tiny changes and basically never got anything finished. Learning Mike's method has completely changed my life and outlook as an artist. I'm now making and finishing more music than I ever thought was possible, and what feels like the most exciting, progressive + authentic music so far. His method works for my scatty, overthinking brain so well + I can't really imagine approaching music making in any other way. He challenges many preconceptions about the creative process + what it means to be an artist ie. that it has to be torturous. So if you want to find a way to make more music consistently + find a flow that is fun, creative + freeing then I recommend you do his course. Fellow MMYLers are passionate about his method, because it works.
This course is just what I needed to complete the process of making an album. With Mike's program Ive made more progress than I have in years. He puts order in the chaos. It really helps aa creative individual like myself stay on track and actually complete the process of making an album. Bravo!
I've got so much from these courses and the Make An Album with Mike course is the best for me. I've written so much and the quality is so much better than ever before. Mike and the team are incredible.I can't recommend this enough.
I wish I give it a 4.9 or 4.8 but a five is great enough number for me, Mike was able to give very insightful tips on how to get through a deadline,stress and going freely with writing songs and not over thinking about the writing process. I Will absolutely will be using his course again in the future for another release of mine when im ready to release. worth the 1000 dollars for sure you wont regret your money when you spend it :D
Here’s how the Make An Album With Mike program works:
M.A.W.M. Team Coaching
Every Thursday (Friday if you're Aus/NZ), we will meet for 2 hours. We'll alternate between:
a. Thoughtnado Sessions (bi-weekly from Sept 20)
So few artists think through what they're making and why. They just go into the studio, throwing random stuff at the wall. The artists who make much better, unique music take a completely different approach.
Take a step back and consider what you're going to throw at the wall. You'll save hours of frustration and get a much better result.
And these "Thoughtnado" sessions are where you'll do this.
They are my thinking tools designed to deliver deep insight into your music.
I've designed these new tools to identify and enhance the unique ingredients that will work together to make your album stand out from the crowd.
b. Studio Hours (bi-weekly from Sept 27)
I will personally help you solve the inevitable problems you’ll face making your album.
Bring music for feedback.
Or a problem you're stuck on.
Together we’ll find a breakthrough.
NOTE: to keep it simple, ALL SESSIONS start at the same time - 3pm EST (New York).
PLUS: All sessions are recorded. So if you can’t make it you won’t miss a thing.
Weekly Make Music With Mike Sessions
In these sessions, you'll make your music with others making theirs.
You'll do this live on Zoom or join the recorded replays.
This is "Solo Collaboration" - a weekly lightning bolt of motivation and clarity. 2.5 hours of focused music-making feels like 2.5 minutes!
I'll give you step-by-step music games to unlock your unique style. I design them bespoke for the group's needs/wants at every phase.
These sessions start at 3pm on Sept 22, then weekly until Dec 8.
(NOTE: All sessions are recorded if this doesn't work with your schedule. So you can do them when you want.)
Plus, as a bonus:
After the MAWM program finishes on December 13, you'll get lifetime access to the live weekly Make Music With Mike session to continue making music!
M.A.W.M. Team Community
You'll also join a private MAWM-only area of the Make Music Your Life Tribe.
Between sessions, you can ask questions, support others, and share your progress with your community and coaches.
“Sweet Release!” Bonus Session
MAWM is focused on making the album, so you'll have it done by December 13th 2024.
But in this final session on December 13, after celebrating our success, we'll focus on releasing and promoting your album to maximise exposure.
